How it works

Tell the staff
what you feel like

Breakfast is cooked for you every morning and is included in your stay. For lunch and dinner, choose from this menu, or ask for something that is not on it, and the staff will shop for it and cook it in the villa kitchen. The cooking service is a flat fee for the whole group, and fresh ingredients are charged at what they cost in the market.

Let the staff know in the morning for lunch, and by early afternoon for dinner. Seafood and the barbecue are best ordered a day ahead so the market run can be done fresh.

Dinner on the terrace, under the lanterns, is the reason most guests come back.
