Arrive to a kitchen ready for your first meals. Before you travel we coordinate with your villa’s chef or cook to buy groceries and drinks for the menu you choose, including any allergies or dietary needs in your group, so there is no supermarket run on day one.

Groceries are bought at cost on your behalf, with no mark-up; you pay for the groceries plus any delivery or transport fee.

To ensure your smooth and comfortable arrival, pre-stocking groceries is arranged prior to check-in. This service is coordinated by us in collaboration with you and your villa’s chef, who handles the grocery planning and shopping based on the agreed menu. Guests typically create or select a preferred menu in advance, after which the chef determines the appropriate ingredients and quantities based on the menu and the number of guests in your party.

Pre-stocking allows guests to settle in immediately without the need for an initial supermarket visit and ensures that all essential ingredients and beverages are ready for your first meals at the villa.

Grocery items are purchased at cost on your behalf, with no mark-up. The cost of groceries is paid by the guest, along with any applicable transportation or delivery fees. Final costs vary depending on menu selections and guest count.

Once your booking details are confirmed, our team will coordinate directly with the chef to ensure everything is prepared in advance of your arrival. While every effort is made to source requested items, availability may vary due to seasonality or local supply, and on rare occasions, suitable substitutions may be required.

Special Dietary Requirements:

For your comfort and safety, we kindly ask that any food allergies or special dietary requirements within your group be shared with us in advance. When submitting your menu selections, please indicate any dietary needs along with the name(s) of the guest(s) to whom they apply, allowing the chef to plan and prepare accordingly.

Please note that groceries are purchased based on the agreed menu selections and the number of registered guests staying at the villa. If you plan to host visitors during your stay, kindly check with us in advance to confirm that your villa permits outside guests and that the chef is able to accommodate and prepare meals for the additional number of persons.
