Effortless Luxury — A Private Dining Experience Like No Other
Imagine arriving at your villa after a sun-drenched day on Pampelonne Beach. The table is set on the terrace, the evening light is golden, and the scent of pan-seared scallops with truffle emulsion drifts through the garden. You don’t need to lift a finger — your chef has taken care of everything.
This is what it feels like to have Thomas Guérinet as your private chef.
With over 15 years of international experience — including training under Alain Ducasse at the Michelin-starred Spoon in Saint-Tropez — Thomas brings refined Mediterranean cuisine directly to your holiday home, private villa, or yacht. Every meal is designed around your preferences, your rhythm, and your guests.
Whether you are staying for a weekend, a full season, or hosting a one-of-a-kind celebration, every dish is prepared à la minute using the finest seasonal produce sourced from local farmers’ markets.
