Catering Marbella for villas and private events

Catering service in Marbella for every type of party

People looking for catering in Marbella usually want the same thing: great food, calm service and no chaos in their own kitchen. MAREA delivers private catering for villa parties on the Golden Mile, birthdays in Sierra Blanca, corporate drinks in the centre and summer garden parties towards San Pedro de Alcántara.

We work with walking bites that are eaten standing up, so guests keep moving and keep talking. Paella and BBQ are cooked live on site: the smell of saffron or charcoal is part of the experience.

From the Golden Mile to Nueva Andalucía

Our mobile kitchen makes catering at home in Marbella possible at almost any venue: a rooftop in the centre, a garden in Nueva Andalucía or a finca outside town. We bring cooking equipment, refrigeration, tableware and staff.

Menu prices start at €42 p.p. for a minimum of 25 guests. Chef, service staff, tableware, setup and clean-up are included; drinks packages and styling are optional.

What does a catering service in Marbella cost?

Our catering service in Marbella works with fixed prices per person: walking bites €42 p.p., paella €38 p.p. and BBQ €45 p.p. Drinks packages are chosen separately: Essential €18, Classic €28 and Premium €45 per person. All menu prices apply from 25 guests.

That price includes chef, service staff, tableware, setup and clean-up. There are no travel costs within Málaga city, Torremolinos and Rincón de la Victoria; for Marbella and the surrounding area transport is agreed in the quote.

You usually receive a quote within 24 hours, with a concrete menu proposal and a timeline for the evening.

Booking catering in Marbella: how it works

You pick a menu, a drinks package and any extras, and share the date, venue and guest count. We confirm availability and send the final proposal.

On the day itself the team arrives well before the start to set up. Afterwards we clear everything and take the waste with us, so you only have to be the host.

High season, low season and availability

From May to October Marbella is at its busiest and Saturdays fill up first. For high season we recommend booking four to six weeks ahead; in the winter months there is more room, also on weekdays.

Events in public spaces or at beach venues are subject to municipal rules on noise and timing. We align setup and schedule with what the venue allows, so you do not have to worry about it.

For which occasions in Marbella?

We cater birthdays, anniversaries, corporate drinks, team outings, villa weekends and product launches, from 25 to around 150 guests. Because walking bites are eaten standing up, our concept fits almost any setting — from courtyard to rooftop.

Many hosts combine: walking bites as the base, a live paella as the warm centrepiece and a drinks package on top. A dessert bar or cocktail bar on site can be added as an extra.

Catering service Marbella: what to expect from our team

A catering service in Marbella stands or falls on execution. Every event comes with a chef who cooks on site, plus service staff who circulate, pour and clear. For 25 to 40 guests we usually work with one chef and two staff; above that we scale up per 25 guests.

We arrive well before the start, set up without taking over the house and leave with all the waste. You do not need to provide a kitchen, tableware or glassware — we bring it.

The fastest way to book catering in Marbella is the quote form: menu, date, venue and guest count. Within 24 hours you receive a proposal with the price per person and a timeline.

Catering a domicilio en Marbella

Many clients search in Spanish for catering a domicilio en Marbella: a catering service that comes and cooks at home or at the villa. That is exactly what we do — we bring a mobile kitchen, refrigeration, tableware and staff, and cook on site.

The offering is walking bites (€42 p.p.), paella at home (€38 p.p.) and barbecue at home (€45 p.p.), each from 25 guests and including chef, service and clean-up.

We speak Dutch, English and Spanish. The quote and all contact can be handled entirely in Spanish via info@mareacatering.es or WhatsApp +34 621 076 122.

Catering across Marbella's neighbourhoods

Puerto Banús and Nueva Andalucía: villas with pools and terraces overlooking La Concha, ideal for a sunset walking dinner. On the Golden Mile and in Sierra Blanca we often work in large villas with gated access; share the access rules in your enquiry.

In San Pedro de Alcántara, Elviria and Los Monteros we cook in gardens and on roof terraces, and in Marbella's old town on patios where space is limited. Everywhere the same: from 25 guests, standing, with our own chef and service staff.
