Contact Jennifer to coordinate via email or whatsapp to coordinate Martha's cooking services and grocery shopping options:
Martha has worked as the head housekeeper at Casa Miramar for 20 years and loves to cook for the guests!
Guests love Martha and her meals!
Groceries are not included. 15% shopping fee is added to the total of the groceries if Jennifer buys the food.
For the arrival snacks, it’s easier for Jennifer to purchase the food for the guacamole, ceviche and/ or pico de gallo so that Martha can start preparing it before you arrive. A 15% shopping fee is charged to the overall bill, and you reimburse Jennifer at check in with cash, venmo or zelle before checking out.
Martha is very flexible, and you can decide on meals once you are here but Martha does not have transportation so you need to take her to the store or get the list from her. Otherwise, she will call Jennifer to buy the food.
Martha does not have time to prepare meals on check in or check out days!
