Experience Gourmet In-Villa Dining Courtesy of a Personal Chef

Each Elite Havens villa comes with a personal chef, many of whom have trained abroad at internationally acclaimed restaurants. Your in-villa chef will be happy to prepare meals upon request, customising them to your preferences, and utilising the freshest local ingredients and produce.
