Cook Service

You will enjoy the convenience of dining "at home" with a piping hot breakfast in the morning and homemade flavorful dishes for lunch or dinner. You choose the menu for the week from a wide assortment of selections including fresh seafood, chicken, pork and Mexican favorites such as fajitas, enchiladas, chile rellenos and more. If there are dietary restrictions, that is not a problem; the staff can accommodate food allergies, vegetarians, etc.

Each property has it's own approved staff or meal service provider with various options available. Prices vary depending on the services offered. Please check with us for details about the cook service available in the vacation villa or condo that you have reserved.

Please note that ONLY approved cook staff or meal service provider is allowed on the premises. For security purposes and owner's wishes, outside, unapproved or independent meal service providers are NOT allowed on the premises.

  • Cooks normally prepare 2 meals per day, including breakfast and your choice of lunch or evening meal for 5 to 6 days during the week
  • Meal service rates vary slightly, depending on property you choose. Weekly rates start at approximately $200 per adult; $100 for children. This includes the cost of the food, preparation, service and clean up. The price does not include beverages or tip for the cook.

    Priority is given to guests who request meal service for the full week (5 to 6 days of service)
