Turn Your Stay Into a Feast: How Airbnbs and Boutique Hotels Can Make Bank with Rebel Kitchen

If you run an Airbnb, a vacation rental or a small boutique hotel on the Caribbean coast, you've probably heard this question more than once: "Where should we eat tonight?" For many properties without a restaurant, the honest answer is a drive, a long walk in the dark or another night of snacks. We think there's a better answer.

The gap we kept noticing

Rebel Kitchen started as a private chef service partly because of this. We saw so many beautiful places to stay around Puerto Viejo that simply had no way to feed their guests well. Guests would arrive excited for their trip and then spend half their energy figuring out meals.

A private chef fills that gap. Instead of sending guests out, you can offer them a great meal right where they're staying.

What your guests get

A meal without leaving. After a long travel day or a day at the beach, staying in and having dinner cooked for you is a real treat.

Something to remember. A sushi night on the terrace or a family-style Caribbean feast often becomes a highlight of the trip, and it shows up in reviews.

Food that fits them. We plan around allergies, dietary needs and kids, so everyone in the group can enjoy it.

Easy mornings and busy weeks. For longer stays, meal prep and breakfast or lunch packages take the stress out of cooking on vacation.

What you get as a host

A better guest experience without hiring kitchen staff or building a restaurant.

A reason to be chosen. Listing an in-house chef option helps your property stand out.

A commission. Hosts, hotels and retreat organizers who send guests our way earn a commission on those bookings. It's our way of saying thank you for the referral.

No extra work. We talk to the guests, plan the menu, shop, cook and clean up. You just make the introduction.

How it works

It's simple. You share our details with your guests, whether that's in your welcome book, your check-in message or a quick recommendation. Guests contact us directly, we plan the meal with them, and you receive your commission once the booking is done.

We can also put together welcome boxes from our Bakery & Boxes service, so your guests arrive to something homemade and delicious.

Let's work together

If you host guests in the area and want to offer them something special, we'd love to talk. Send us a WhatsApp message and we'll share the details of how our partnership and commissions work.
