When you hire a private chef through Catering Marbella, you’re investing in a complete, stress-free dining experience. Our service includes everything from menu planning and sourcing fresh, high-quality ingredients to cooking, serving, and cleaning up afterwards. Your chef arrives fully prepared to transform your kitchen or villa into a pop-up restaurant, tailored entirely to your preferences. We handle every detail, allowing you to focus on your guests and the occasion itself. Whether you’re planning a one-off romantic dinner or a week of in-villa dining, we ensure a smooth, professional, and unforgettable experience from start to finish.
Absolutely. Customisation is at the heart of our private chef service. Before your event, we’ll discuss your tastes, dietary restrictions, favourite cuisines, and the overall feel you want for the meal. Whether you’re looking for traditional Spanish dishes, vegan or gluten-free menus, family-friendly options, or something totally unique, our chefs will design a bespoke menu to reflect your vision. Many clients love mixing cultural influences for something completely fresh. Every dish is tailored to suit your occasion, whether it’s casual sharing platters, fine dining, or a BBQ feast. It’s your event, your menu, your way.
We offer both! Catering Marbella provides flexible private chef services for everything from one-off dinners to extended bookings over several days or weeks. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting an elegant dinner party, or enjoying a villa holiday and would like daily meals prepared for you, our chefs are available to meet your schedule. One-off services are perfect for surprise proposals, hen parties, or even just a luxurious night in. Long-term services are ideal for holidaymakers who want daily breakfasts, lunches, and dinners with none of the hassle, just exceptional food, on your terms.
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially during peak seasons such as summer holidays, Easter, or around Christmas and New Year. For popular areas like Marbella, Sotogrande, and Estepona, availability can fill up quickly. Ideally, a week or more in advance gives us plenty of time to finalise the menu and source top-quality ingredients. However, we understand that plans can come together last-minute, and we’ll always do our best to accommodate your request, even with short notice. For guaranteed availability and menu planning flexibility, the sooner you book, the better.
Yes, those are our specialties! Private chef experiences are ideal for romantic evenings, proposals, milestone birthdays, anniversaries, hen and stag dos, and more. We work with you to set the mood, whether that’s a candlelit dinner for two, a celebratory BBQ with friends, or a stylish canapé reception. Our chefs are not just great cooks, they understand the importance of presentation, timing, and atmosphere. We’ll even coordinate extras like flowers, table styling, or wine pairings to create a full sensory experience. Whatever the occasion, we’ll help you celebrate it in delicious style.
Yes, your private chef will take care of sourcing all the ingredients for your chosen menu. We work with trusted local suppliers and markets to select the freshest seasonal produce, premium meats, and quality seafood. Once your menu is confirmed, your chef will prepare a shopping list, hand-pick the ingredients, and arrive fully equipped on the day of your event. This ensures that you get the best possible flavour and quality in every bite, without having to lift a finger. All you need to do is relax and look forward to your personal dining experience.
Absolutely. Our private chefs regularly cater for guests staying in luxury villas, holiday apartments, boutique rentals, and onboard yachts.

We’ll adapt to the space, whether it’s a modern kitchen, compact galley, or outdoor BBQ area. Our chefs are highly experienced at working in a variety of locations and can create incredible meals even in the most intimate or unconventional spaces. Wherever you are, we’ll come to you.
Yes, themed and speciality menus are one of our most popular requests. From traditional Spanish tapas nights and seafood paellas to vegan feasts, Asian fusion, BBQ buffets or elegant fine-dining tasting menus, our chefs love crafting something unique. Whether you’re dreaming of a laid-back barbecue, a Mediterranean grazing board, or a romantic five-course dinner with wine pairing, we’ll work with you to build a menu that suits your theme and guests. You can either select from our sample menus or collaborate with us to create something entirely bespoke.
Yes, absolutely. One of the greatest perks of hiring a private chef through Catering Marbella is the complete clean-up service included. After your meal is served and enjoyed, your chef will discreetly tidy up the kitchen, clear away used equipment, and leave the cooking area spotless. If we’ve provided service staff, they’ll also help with table clearing. We believe your dining experience should be as effortless as possible, from the moment we arrive to the final wiped-down surface. You get to savour your meal and your company, without worrying about the mess.
