San Diego’s mild temperatures allow you to spend relaxing evenings on the beach even during the month of November. Why not feast on the sand this Thanksgiving? During this beach bash, your personal attendant will serve a fall-inspired dinner right on the sand as you sip a glass of your drink of choice and watch the sunset over the Pacific. Fireside s’mores for dessert and a pumpkin cornhole game will get you in the Thanksgiving spirit!
“Wine” down this Thanksgiving with loved ones and a heavy pour of a decadent cabernet. Choose from one of San Diego’s nearby wine regions – Temecula Valley, Baja’s Valle de Guadalupe, or Ramona – for a leisurely fall day in the vineyards. Your private chauffeur will pick you and your guests up from your Monarch Luxury Villas rental and escort you to your selected vineyards before returning home. Experience tastings, behind-the-scenes vineyard tours, and a personalized picnic lunch.
When you’re on vacation, the last thing you want to worry about is navigating a new grocery store or spending Thanksgiving morning meal prepping. With our custom Thanksgiving delivery service, your personal chef will deliver a Turkey or Ham and all the fixings right to your rental the day prior. All you need to do is heat and serve! If you have a special family tradition you’d like to include, let us know and we will be happy to add it into the mix.
For a truly luxurious holiday experience, enjoy a gourmet Thanksgiving dinner prepared by a private chef. He’ll work with you to create a customized menu ahead of time, and will take care of the shopping, cooking, and clean-up. This is the best way to have a full relaxed, worry-free holiday with family and friends.
