The hotel is on the outskirts of Palermo and is the base for the couple's celebrations which kick off Thursday and the couple's suite is described as 'the crowing jewel'.
It adds the suite 'offers spacious privacy in fresh, contemporary surrounds adorned in local artwork with a separate living room and the added luxury of a breezy sea-view terrace, outfitted with lounges and sunbeds perfect for leisurely mornings and relaxing afternoons.
'Luxuriate in your super king-sized bed, which can be twinned as requested. Soak up the glamour of your spacious marble bathroom with a separate bathtub, walk-in shower and superb Irene Forte Skincare toiletries.'
A source at the hotel said: 'Dua and Callum came down for breakfast at around 11am. She had a boiled egg and he had an omelette. A platter of fruit was placed in front of them, and they were joined by friends.
'At one point Dua was heard to say "Let's party" and there was a big cheer from everyone at the table.'
Rumours circulating Palermo were that a mega yacht called Nympheas moored by the hotel would be the venue for celebrations on Thursday night.
Three hundred family and friends will be attending the three-day shindig with private jet slots booked up at Palermo's airport and a fleet of blacked-out limos to ferry guests to various villas and hotels.
Private security firms have also been doing a roaring trade with teams of bodyguards also hired and all staff involved in the wedding have been made to sign non-disclosure agreements.

One local who lives next door to Villa Valguanera - an Italo-Scot - told the Daily Mail: 'I came out of my house to do some shopping and took a short cut past the villa and two men mountain jumped out on me.
