Your Chef, Your Schedule

Forget restaurant reservations, buffet lines, and overpriced room service. At Casa Xaman, your private chef handles lunch, dinner, and anything in between — all included in your stay.

Before you arrive, we'll learn your preferences, dietary needs, and special requests. Your chef creates custom menus based on what you love, using fresh local ingredients from the Riviera Maya.

You cover groceries (concierge handles shopping). Everything else — the cooking, presentation, cleanup — is taken care of.

Common Questions

Private Chef FAQ

Is the private chef really included?

Yes — your chef's time and expertise are included in your stay. You cover grocery costs (typically $50-100/day depending on group size and preferences), and concierge handles all shopping.

What if someone in our group has food allergies?

We take dietary restrictions seriously. Before arrival, we collect detailed information about allergies, intolerances, and preferences. Your chef plans all meals around these needs.

Can we eat out some nights?

Absolutely. Some guests do chef-prepared meals most nights and explore local restaurants once or twice. Just let your chef know your schedule each day.

What about breakfast?

Most guests prefer a lighter breakfast they can prepare themselves (we stock the kitchen). Your chef focuses on lunch and dinner, though breakfast can be arranged if you prefer full service.

Can the chef prepare special occasion meals?

Birthday dinner? Anniversary celebration? Absolutely. Just give us advance notice and any specific requests — your chef loves creating memorable moments.
