Can Groceries Be Arranged Before I Arrive at My Villa?
What Should Go on the First-Arrival List?
Start with the essentials your group will need before the first normal shopping trip. Think water, breakfast basics, snacks, baby items or anything linked to dietary requirements.
Add quantities where they matter, and mention preferred brands only when a substitute would not work. A short, prioritised list makes it easier to check what can be sourced and where alternatives may be needed.
If your villa already includes a welcome pack or basic supplies, keep those separate from the grocery request so there is no duplication.
Can Anything Reach the Villa Before You Do?
Pre-arrival delivery depends on the villa’s access, handover arrangements and your arrival timing. We check whether the property can receive the items safely before you arrive.
If you have a late flight, ferry or split group arrival, mention it when you enquire so the timing can be planned properly.
Until the delivery is confirmed, keep a separate plan for anything you consider essential for the first evening.
What Should a Clear Offer Include?
Before confirming, check which items can be sourced, how substitutions will be handled and where the order will be delivered.
The offer should also make clear what is included in the price, including any delivery or coordination charges, and when the items are expected to reach the villa.

Essentials and the First Evening at Your Villa
Yes, you can include it in your request. Availability depends on sourcing, delivery timing and whether the items can be received and stored appropriately before you arrive.
Not necessarily. Check what your villa booking already includes first. Any additional grocery request, if available, will have its own scope, price and inclusions.
