Villa Dinners & Group Catering

The Group-Size Math

Dinners are priced per person, so the math is simple. A 3–4 course villa dinner from IDR 700K per person ++ means:

GuestsEstimated total (from)
2 guests (intimate dinner)IDR 1.4M ++
4 guestsIDR 2.8M ++
8 guestsIDR 5.6M ++
12 guestsIDR 8.4M ++

Poolside BBQs and buffet catering for larger groups run IDR 700K–800K per person ++, with group minimums depending on format. Premium ingredients (lobster, imported beef, oysters) are quoted separately — always before you commit. Explore catering services →

Two common models: (1) daily villa chef hire from IDR 1,000,000++/day for one meal with chef + assistant, groceries at cost; (2) event dinners from about IDR 700K per person ++ and fine dining from about IDR 950K–1.25M++ depending on menu. Your quote states which model applies. Day rates →
Published day rates: IDR 1M++ / 1.8M++ / 2.7M++ for 1 / 2 / 3 meals (chef + assistant). Food is separate at cost with receipts on daily hire.
Use daily rates with monthly discount (−20% from 28+ days), or request a live-in / household proposal. Share meal pattern and villa area for a fixed monthly figure.
We do not sell a simple “chef hourly” product for villa guests. We sell day rates (by meal count) or per-person event menus. That keeps shopping, cooking, service and cleanup in one clear package.
For groups and multi-meal villa days, cost per person often competes with restaurants once transport and time are counted. For a single couple’s dinner it is a premium experience — prices are published so you can decide before deposit. Cost guide →
