How is meal preparation and grocery shopping handled?
Approximately 60 days prior to your arrival, we will send you a preliminary grocery/menu planner.

We kindly request that you provide us with this information at least two weeks before your arrival. If anyone in your group has food allergies or special dietary needs, please inform us in advance so that the staff can accommodate your requirements. The staff will present you with a bill from the grocery store for the items you have selected. For the remainder of your stay, you can communicate directly with the staff for your meal requests, beverages, and other culinary needs.
