Espectacular todo! Puntualidad, calidad de los platos, flexibilidad a nuestros gustos, preparación y limpieza. María Antonieta hace realmente un gran trabajo. 100% recomendable

Chef Daniel was amazing! The food was absolutely incredible and for some of us, it was the best of some of the things we’ve ever had. It was an absolutely amazing experience and I would recommend him to anyone

We couldn’t have been happier with Chef Christopher. His presentation and food quality was much better than a restaurant! Christopher cooked for four adults and five teenagers and made sure everyone had what they needed. Would highly recommend !!

Chef Christopher did an amazing job. We gave him some very basic requests and he created the perfect 4 day breakfast and dinner meal experience

Christopher was exceptional!! We had a wonderful experience. Cant wait to do it again!

Maria and her team were great! Punctual, delicious food, polite and friendly. She accommodated our requests and dietary restrictions. The kitchen was spotless when they were done! Highly recommend!

Chef Maria & her sous chef was incredible. We hired Chef Maria for our family vacation this past week in Tamarindo and she blew us away every night. She was able to accommodate dietary restrictions with ease and last minute adjustments with a seafood allergy. She had so much variety in her meals and it made the experience that much more special. I would highly recommend Chef Maria to anyone visiting Tamarindo and would absolutely hire her again when we return.

We had a great meal with Luxua Private Chef Arlen. They were communicative, had a great menu selection, on time, and friendly. Arlen was an amazing chef as well. She came on time, cooked a delicious 4 course meal for the two of us, and left us with an extremely clean kitchen. I couldn’t recommend them more.

Absolutely incredible experience! The chefs were punctual, communicative, and so personable. The food was some of the best I’ve ever had. The dishes were beautifully presented and full of flavor. Highly recommend!

The chefs were absolutely amazing, and I would highly recommend this team. Having them was one of the highlights of our trip—it made everything so much more relaxing since we didn’t have to worry about cooking or cleaning for our big group. They were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond our expectations. You will not be disappointed!

We had chef Adrian and Bismark for our family vacation of 16 people for 4 days. They were absolutely incredible! We had no complaints. They were kind and polite as well. We sprung on a last minute dinner request and they were so happy to do it for us! They were so flexible and incredible with everything. 10 out of 10 recommend them for anything you’re looking for!

Our dinner with Maria was a top five all-time experience for us! We had never had a chef come prepare a meal like that, and it was everything we could have wanted. The food was fantastic, and we enjoyed getting to know Maria and learn her story. She was especially great at accommodating the young children in our group. Highly recommend!

This experience was incredible! We were a group of 8 so finding a menu that worked for everyone was tricky but we were able to make all the alterations we needed to make the experience perfect for us. The food was just amazing and there was more then enough of it! Some of us even got to have left overs for lunch the next day.This was such a special experience for us we will always remembers this!

When you travel to Costa Rica for a family vacation and need to feed 10 Adults & 5 children, all under the age of 5, how do you even satisfy all of these people? Hire Chef Felix and Chef Arlen to make dinner! They did an amazing job, we had them cook five meals for us and each menu was delicious. We were able to eat a variety of foods and pick from various menus based on regions, my favorite was the Peruvian night, the Ceviche and Seabass were delicious! We all really enjoyed our last night when we let the Chefs pick the menu for us, everyone was delighted and raved how good the food tasted. This was definitely the highlight of our time spent in Costa Rica, being able to have dinner in our special villa, sitting outside while all the kids enjoyed themselves....doesn't get any better then this for a family vacation. Many new memories were made and the Chefs were a big part of our experience. They are a 5 star team and would highly recommend to anyone thinking about hiring a Chef....just do it!! I will truly miss having them make our meals, so accommodating and friendly!

Our group can't say enough great things about Chef Giovanna. She is an amazing chef and person. Not only is her food absolutely delicious, she is kind and very attentive. The flavours and variety of the dishes she served throughout our vacation were incredible. Chef Giovanna made our stay in Tamarindo one we will never forget!

Very good overall experience. They were on schedule and flexible on menu selection, accommodating food and allergy restrictions. The team was delightfully personable, including humor. The food tasted terrific! They were very good at using our unit’s appliances and utensils. This experience worked out especially well, given the rainy conditions outside.

Maria was AMAZING. Super personable, and a wonderful chef. Diner was served on time and couldn’t have been better. Helped us with so many local questions we had. Each course was better than the last. Highly recommended.

WOW! Chef Felix and Chef Arlen did such an amazing job. The dishes they made were so delicious and the food and the delivery presentation was that of a 5 star restaurant. From the first day we felt like we were at home. On the first day I told Chef Felix that I will be going to the grocery store to get some snacks and drinks, without hesitation he said I will take you. I jump in he car and we went with me to the local grocery store, explain different snack and drinks that are local to Costa Rica. Then, after I finished shopping, we stopped at a local bar and we had the Costa Rica local drink Chiliguaro, it was like a great bloody mary drink in a shot. A must try if you are in Costa Rica, the name spoken by locals sounds like "chili-water". Thank you very much Chef Felix and Chef Arlen! You are great chefs and amazing people, you made our stay one we will not forget! I appreciate your hard work and amazing food! I hope to see you again, Pura Vida! Side note, Chef Felix I hope your food competition went great! Pura Vida!

Exactly what we asked for, excellent food!

Maria was amazing not only was she an amazing cook but she provided us with so much insight into everything Costa Rica has to offer. 10/10 stars! The food was incredible and the service was so professional. Would definitely recommend her!
