The Best Villas With Private Chefs

If you love food as much as we do, this list of the best villas with private chefs will melt in your mouth.

Doing the cooking and grocery shopping whilst on holiday is rarely on anybody’s wish list, especially for larger groups where catering becomes a major operation. That’s why staying in luxury villas with a chef is the key to having a fully immersive relaxation experience.

On holiday, there is nothing quite like having a private chef at your luxury villa to take care of the shopping and to rustle up gourmet treats each lunch or evening. Just let your professional private chef take you on a culinary adventure in the comfort of your luxury villa.

Many of the villas in the Firefly Collection come fully staffed as standard, with their talented chef and team of service staff at your service for the duration of your holiday.

But even if your preferred villa doesn’t have a resident chef, fear not. We can arrange for a chef to come to your villa either for the duration of your stay or for just a few evenings, allowing you to try out some of the local restaurants. Just let us know what suits you, and we’ll take care of the details.

Here are a few of our favourite villas which have a talented private chef included in their service team.
