Hosting in Key Biscayne
Key Biscayne is an island village: one causeway in, family homes on quiet streets, and condo buildings on the ocean side of the island.
Life here is outdoors and family-centered, so the tables we plan most are long weekend lunches, birthday parties by the pool and dinners for friends who came over the bridge.
What Key Biscayne hosts book most
What we plan for in Key Biscayne
- The causeway. Everything comes over the Rickenbacker Causeway, and weekend beach traffic can back it up. We leave extra time so the food arrives on schedule.
- Condo buildings. The oceanfront buildings ask for a certificate of insurance and a booked service elevator. Send the building's vendor rules with your date.
- Island weather. From June to October afternoon storms roll in fast. Outdoor parties get a tent or an indoor plan, and the timing is set around the weather.
- Long lunches. Platters that need no reheating suit a long lunch by the pool, and stay good on the table for the afternoon.
For a lunch by the pool, see the Fresh Lunch platters; for an evening at home, the Chef-Served Dinner.

Private chef in Key Biscayne
A private chef on the island is usually a dinner at home after a beach day: grilled fish, salads and something sweet, served on the terrace. Tamar brings everything, cooks in your kitchen and leaves it clean. How our private chef service works →
Holidays and family tables on Key Biscayne
Holidays on Key Biscayne are big family tables, often with relatives in from abroad. For Thanksgiving, Passover or a Friday-night dinner, the Warm Dining and Shabbat Table platters serve up to 12 and arrive ready to heat, or Tamar can cook and serve at the house.
Our food is kosher-style: meat and fish menus with no dairy. We are not a certified kosher kitchen, so if your family keeps strict kosher, order from a certified kosher caterer. About kosher-style →
Where Key Biscayne hosts entertain
Most events are at home: houses in the village between the two parks, the condo buildings on the ocean side, and waterfront homes along the canals. For boats, Crandon Marina and the Key Biscayne Yacht Club are on the island, with Crandon Park and Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park at either end.
