Can I Request a Private Chef for My Villa Stay?
What Kind of Meal Do You Have in Mind?
The more specific your request, the easier it is to check the right options. Tell us your stay dates, preferred day and time, number of guests, any dietary requirements and the kind of meal you have in mind.
You do not need to prepare a full menu. A simple idea of the food, occasion and style of meal is enough to start the conversation.
One Dinner or Several Meals?
A single dinner is a different request from having a chef prepare several meals during your stay. Let us know how often you would like the service and which days matter, so the available options can be checked properly.
If the meal is part of a birthday, anniversary or another event involving décor, music or other suppliers, that is better handled as a wider celebration request.
Does the Villa Work for the Meal?
The setup needs to work for the villa as well as the occasion. Tell us which property you have booked or shortlisted and whether you are thinking of dining indoors or outside.
Kitchen facilities, dining areas and access differ from one villa to another, so we check the relevant property details before suggesting what may work.
At Marinus Domus Estate in Corfu, for example, the kitchen supports private-chef service. That does not mean a chef is included in the stay or that the same setup applies to every villa. The property and the meal still need to be considered together.
Know What the Offer Covers
Check the dates or meals covered, the number of diners, what is included in the food and service, and any relevant conditions. If something is not stated, ask before confirming rather than assuming every private-chef quote has the same scope.
If you are unsure whether a meal is already part of your villa booking, check your reservation details first.
For other arrangements around your stay, explore our villa concierge services.
Before Choosing a Chef Meal
A few details can shape what can be arranged.
No. Start with the type of meal, preferred date, number of guests and any dietary requirements. The available options can then be discussed for your stay.
Not necessarily. This depends on your villa, dates and booking terms. Check what is already included before requesting a separate private-chef quote.
