Catering in Estepona — Paella, BBQ & Private Chef from Our Kitchen to Yours

Our finca kitchen is just 20 minutes from Estepona. While most Costa del Sol caterers drive from Málaga, we're already your neighbour. Paella, brasero BBQ, or delivery — chef, ingredients, equipment, setup and cleanup included.

Estepona's Best-Kept Catering Secret Lives 20 Minutes Away

Estepona is growing fast. New villas in El Paraíso and Cancelada, more holiday rentals along the Paseo Marítimo, a booming expat community in Benavista and Valle Romano. But catering options haven't kept up. Most companies serving Estepona are based in Málaga — 90 minutes away. They send staff who don't know the area, charge delivery surcharges, and treat Estepona as a secondary market after Marbella.

Si Catering is based just 20 minutes from Estepona, in the hills above Marbella. Chef Paco Siles — third-generation cook, Maestro Arrocero, 30 years of professional experience — shops at the same coastal markets, drives the same roads, and knows every urbanización between Estepona port and Casares Costa. When you book us, you're not getting a catering company that happens to cover Estepona. You're getting your local chef.

How it works: you pick a date and a format — live paella, brasero BBQ, or delivery. Paco confirms availability, gives you a fixed quote, and arrives at your villa with everything: pan, grill, gas, ingredients, plates, serving dishes, condiments. He cooks in front of your guests, serves, and clears up. You don't touch a thing. For delivery, a hot paella arrives in the traditional paellera, ready to serve at your own pace.

We cover all of Estepona and surrounding areas: Old Town (casco antiguo), Paseo Marítimo, Benavista, Selwo, El Paraíso, Cancelada, Bahía de Casares, Casares Costa, Valle Romano, the Finca Cortesín area, and Alcaidesa. We also serve toward Manilva and Sotogrande on request — same pricing, no distance surcharge.

How It Works — Estepona

20-Minute Drive

Our kitchen is just 20 minutes from Estepona. Unlike Málaga-based caterers who drive 90 minutes, we're practically next door. Paco knows every address from the port to Cancelada.

Fresh Cooking On-Site

Paco arrives 45–60 minutes before service with everything: paella pan or brasero grill, gas, ingredients, plates, condiments. He sets up in your outdoor space and cooks from scratch in front of your guests.

Full Service

We serve when the food is ready — buffet style or plated, depending on your setup and group size. Every guest eats properly. Dietary requirements handled with advance notice.

Spotless Cleanup

Within 30 minutes of service ending, everything is cleared. Your terrace, garden or pool area is left exactly as we found it. You don't lift a pan.
