How a Private Chef Experience Transforms Your Brightwild Stay at Lunara Bay
One of the most memorable ways to elevate your stay at Lunara Bay is by booking a private chef experience. At Brightwild, we believe luxury isn't just about beautiful spaces — it’s about ease, connection, and creating moments you’ll never forget. Whether you're traveling with family, friends, or colleagues, a private chef allows you to gather around the table without the stress of planning, booking, or settling for what’s available.
Why a Private Chef is a Game-Changer — Especially in Key West
Dining out in Key West — especially as a group — can pose real challenges. During peak season, reservations fill up weeks in advance. Many restaurants are cozy by design, meaning limited space for large parties and few options to dine all together without splitting up or waiting hours.
A private chef experience at Lunara Bay offers a seamless alternative:
Your Table, On Your Terms
No crowded lobbies, late reservations, or splitting tables. You choose the time, the menu, and the atmosphere — and the chef brings the restaurant to you.
Space Designed to Host
Lunara Bay’s open-concept chef's kitchens are built with entertaining in mind. Large islands, top-tier appliances, and spacious indoor-outdoor dining areas allow your group to gather comfortably and experience meals the way they were meant to be enjoyed: together.
Elevated, Personalized Menus
Whether it's a low-key family-style dinner, a birthday brunch, or a multi-course tasting menu, everything is tailored to your tastes and dietary needs. Your group isn't just eating — you're dining with intention, without compromise.
Inside the Chef’s Kitchens at Lunara Bay
What makes the chef experience even more special at Lunara Bay is the setting itself. Each home is equipped with a thoughtfully designed, fully stocked kitchen that serves as both a functional space and a showpiece. These are kitchens meant to be cooked in — and shown off.
Chefs can prepare meals while you watch, serve guests from the island, or plate courses to enjoy outdoors under the palms. Whether you're hosting a casual breakfast after a morning swim or gathering for a sunset dinner party, the space adapts to your vibe.
