What Happens Next

  • A reply from a person

    Inquiries are read and answered by the team, usually within a day.

  • Questions before quotes

    We would rather understand the occasion properly than send a generic price list.

  • A plan in writing

    Menu direction, staffing, timing and cost, laid out clearly enough to forward.

  • Discretion by default

    Names, addresses and details stay with the people who need them.

Where We Work

Based in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. We regularly work throughout Santa Teresa, Mal País, Santa Teresa de Cóbano and the wider Nicoya Peninsula, and travel elsewhere in Costa Rica and internationally for the right engagement.
