    Villa catering in Marbella and surroundings

    Villa catering calls for a team that works independently: arrive, set up on the terrace or by the pool, cook and serve without the host having to arrange anything. We provide luxury villa catering in Marbella, Sierra Blanca, La Zagaleta and Nueva Andalucía.

    Because guests keep moving at a villa party, a standing concept works better than a long seated dinner. Walking bites, a live paella or BBQ station and a bar where staff keep pouring.

    What we bring to the villa

    Refrigeration, cooking stations, tableware, glassware and staff. We only use the villa kitchen when convenient — often we cook entirely outdoors.

    What does villa catering in Marbella cost?

    For catering at a villa we charge the same fixed prices as everywhere: 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. Optional extras for a villa party are cocktail tables, lighting, a cocktail bar and a dessert station.

    Which menu suits a villa party?

    At a villa party guests move between terrace, pool and garden. Walking bites work best: bites that circulate while everyone stands and talks. For larger groups we often add a live paella or BBQ station as the main moment.

    Because we are fully self-sufficient, the villa kitchen needs no adjustment. We cook outdoors on our own stations and take all equipment and waste back with us.

    Planning and access on the day itself

    We arrive 2 to 3 hours before the start to set up. At gated communities such as La Zagaleta or Sierra Blanca we arrange the security registration in advance, based on the access details and vehicle plates you provide.

    Planning a private event at a rented villa in Marbella

    Anyone organising a private event at a rented villa runs into the same questions: is cooking allowed, when must the music stop, where do suppliers park and who clears up? We check those points beforehand and put them in the quote, so there are no surprises on the day.

    Practically we need: a delivery route for the van, a flat spot for the cooking station, power and water, and an indoor or covered fallback if the weather turns. Many villa owners set a noise curfew; we build that into the timeline.

    For multi-day bookings guests often combine a welcome BBQ, an evening of walking bites and a paella night. We quote one price for the whole stay.

    Catering for 25 people in een villa in Marbella: price example

    Our minimum is 25 guests. For 25 people paella costs 25 × €38 = €950, walking bites 25 × €42 = €1,050 and BBQ 25 × €45 = €1,125. A drinks package is optional from 25 × €18 = €450.

    What your villa needs

    A terrace or garden with a level spot for the mobile kitchen, a power socket and a water point is enough. We bring tableware, cocktail tables on request and the team, and leave the villa clean — handy for rental villas with a strict check-out.

    Villa catering is all about the setup: cocktail tables around the pool, a bar on the terrace and live cooking where guests can watch. We review the villa's layout or photos in advance so the setup and flow work.

    Frequently asked questions

    How many guests can you handle at a villa?

    From 25 up to around 150 guests. For larger numbers we scale up the team and cooking setup.

    Do you clean up afterwards?

    Yes. Setup, service and clean-up are included. Your villa is left tidy afterwards.

    Do you also work in gated communities such as La Zagaleta?

    Yes. Send us the access details and vehicle plates in advance and we will register with security in time.

    How long before the event does the team arrive at the villa?

    Usually 2 to 3 hours before the start, depending on the menu and setup. Live cooking stations need a little more time.

    Can you also arrange cocktail tables, lighting and styling?

    Yes, those are optional extras in the quote, along with a cocktail bar and dessert station.

    From how many guests do you cater a villa party?

    Our menu prices apply from 25 guests.

    Does the villa need a professional kitchen?

    No. We cook entirely outdoors on our own stations and only use the villa kitchen when convenient, for example for refrigeration.

    What if the weather turns?

    For each villa we plan an indoor or covered fallback in the setup. Rain in summer is rare around Marbella, but every quote includes a weather plan.

    Do you also provide drinks and bar staff?

    Yes. The Essential, Classic and Premium drinks packages include staff who keep pouring. A separate cocktail bar is an optional extra.

    Can you cater several days in a row at the same villa?

    Yes, for example a welcome barbecue, an evening of walking bites and breakfast or lunch the next day. We then quote one price for the entire stay.

    What should I agree with the villa owner for a private event?

    Whether cooking and barbecuing are allowed, the maximum number of guests, the noise curfew and where suppliers may load and park. We carry those agreements into the timeline.

    How much space does the team need at the villa?

    A flat working area of roughly two by three metres with power and water nearby, plus a delivery route for the van. A professional kitchen is not needed.

    Can I book catering for 25 people?

    Yes, 25 guests is exactly our minimum. All menus are available from that number, all-inclusive with chef, service, tableware and clean-up.

    From which date can I book?

    Bookings run from 3 January 2027 onwards. Earlier dates are not available in the calendar; contact us directly for those.

    Is a booking binding straight away?

    No. Booking a date holds it for you free of charge. It only becomes final once you approve the written proposal.

    How does booking a date work?

    Pick a free date in the calendar, add your guests and location, and we call you within 24 hours with a proposal for menu, drinks and total price.
