Home / Vacation & Multi-Day Chef
A vacation private chef for your entire stay
You rented the large house so everyone could be together. With a vacation private chef, the week is spent at the table rather than in grocery store lines.
How a vacation chef works
Tell us your dates, who is coming and how you like to eat, and we will plan the meals for your stay. Your chef is with you for $1,250 a day, plus food, covering breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you would rather have a few larger dinners and a couple of brunches, book single meals at our per-person rates.
- Before you arrive: we can stock the refrigerator and pantry with breakfast basics, snacks and drinks for the children
- Breakfast: cooked to order or set out, depending on how your house wakes up
- Lunch: ready when you come back from the pool, beach or golf course
- Dinner: family-style most nights, with one plated dinner for the special evening
Families, professional athletes and everyone in between
Vacation menus are built around the people at the table. Children get food they will happily eat. Athletes in training receive breakfasts designed around their nutrition plans, and one of our regular clients, a professional basketball player, books us for exactly that. Guests with allergies receive their own dishes at every meal.
"As a pro athlete, I need breakfast that fuels my body right, and she delivers amazing meals that taste incredible." Wendell Carter Jr.
What it costs
A full-time vacation chef is $1,250 a day, plus groceries. Single meals are priced per person: dinners from $57, brunches and lunches from $68, with a $830 minimum per meal. A non-refundable $500 deposit holds your dates, and the balance is due 30 days before you arrive. Travel insurance is offered when you book.
Questions people ask
Can we book just some days?
Yes. Many families book a chef for the first night, the last night and one brunch, and cook or dine out the rest of the week.
Do you clean up?
Yes, after every meal. Dishes are washed, counters wiped and leftovers packed for later.
What if the rental kitchen is small?
We bring whatever is missing and plan menus that suit the space.
