About myCHEF Hawaii
Four islands. We staff the crew to the size of the house — chef, sous, service, bar, shopper — not a marketplace freelancer with a tote bag.
Who we are
myCHEF Hawaii cooks in villas, vacation rentals, and residences with a real cooktop — on Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi, and Hawaiʻi Island. The product is private: your kitchen, your table, your guest list. We shop the day of service, cook, serve, and leave the kitchen clean.
We are not a named-chef marketplace. You do not swipe a roster of invented biographies. You book a company, and we staff a brigade to that house. A dinner for six is not a wedding reception. The quote says who is coming, what they will cook, and what the night costs — per guest, service 20%, Hawaiʻi GET up to 4.712%, each on its own line.
Hawaii is launching. We do not invent guest reviews, chef names, or a founding year to look older than the work. Reach the desk on WhatsApp, quotes@mychef-hawaii.com, or (808) 468-7748. Proof today is published starting prices, sample menus, and a written quote. Reviews publish after verified events — see what we will and won’t claim.
The photographs on this page show the scale of a staffed night: more than one pair of hands at the pass, service in the room, a shopper’s crates, a bartender when the terrace is the first room. They illustrate how a booking is crewed. They are not a claim that twenty-five W-2 employees live on every island.
Island teams
Each island has its own kitchen realities, drives, and starting prices. Open the island site for menus and the rate card. This page is who shows up — and how large that “who” is allowed to be.
Oʻahu is town and the short-stay villa belt. Honolulu residences, Waikīkī apartments that actually have a kitchen, Kahala dining rooms, Kailua weeks, Ko Olina villa stays. A Gold Coast dinner and a North Shore surcharge day are not the same drive; the quote says which. Personal-chef weeks for households sit next to visitor dinners. The crew in the photograph is the point: this is not one person with a tote bag and a hope.
Oʻahu siteAbout Oʻahu
Maui is the villa dinner people picture when they say private chef — Wailea, West Maui, Kīhei, Kapalua, Makena, each with its own page. Staffed catering is the bigger service on this island. The same team shops, cooks, and staffs the room. A reception on the lawn is a different crew than Date Night for two. We write that difference before the deposit.
Maui siteAbout Maui
Kauaʻi is both shores, by inquiry: Princeville and Hanalei on the north, Poʻipū and Kōloa on the south. The bridge and the weather are real; far-North inquiries inherit a written road clause instead of a shrug. We staff the estate to the guest list when a crew exists. We do not pretend Līhuʻe and Hāʻena are the same afternoon.
Kauaʻi siteAbout Kauaʻi
Hawaiʻi Island is west-side first: Kona, Waikoloa, the Kohala Coast. Kona has its own page on this site. Hilo is a different day — we will not sell a same-day round trip. Ironman week compresses the calendar. Tell us the dates early. The crew size still follows the house.
Hawaiʻi Island siteAbout Hawaiʻi IslandHow a booking is staffed
01
Owns the menu and the kitchen. Designs the night around the house you actually rented — cooktop, fridge, and table — not a restaurant line we wish you had.
02
The second pair of hands when the guest list grows. Prep, pass, and pacing so the chef is not plating sixty covers alone.
03
Table, timing, water, wine you brought or we quoted. The room should feel staffed, not abandoned between courses.
04
A bartender when the terrace is the first room. Stacked with dinner or booked on its own.
05
Same-day market run for that island. Fish, produce, the things that do not survive a ferry. Groceries for Stay Chef days are billed at cost with receipts.
Signature dinner starts from $195 a guest on Oʻahu, $225 on Maui and Kauaʻi, and $210 on Hawaiʻi Island (dinners from $165 a guest). Wedding-week and catering formats add staffing by the hour. 20% service and Hawaiʻi GET up to 4.712% print as their own lines. The confirmed total is the written quote.
Locations
We cook in the guest’s villa. This is a service-area kitchen, not a storefront — no published street office.
We cook in Waikīkī resort residences, Kahala / Gold Coast, Ko Olina, Kailua–Lanikai, and North Shore / Turtle Bay (travel fee on North Shore).
Wailea, Kāʻanapali, Kapalua, Makena; Upcountry quoted.
North Shore (Princeville, Hanalei), South Shore (Poipū), and Kapaʻa / East; inquiry.
Kona–Kohala first, including Waimea and Waikoloa; the east side is quoted as its own day, not a same-day west-side trip.
