Why an outdoor kitchen

You have the terrace and the weather. What is missing is a kitchen that works.

On the Costa del Sol you can cook and eat outside for most of the year. But a freestanding grill in the corner means carrying everything back and forth, cooking with your back to your guests, and covering it all up again afterwards.

  • No worktop, sink or fridge next to the grill
  • No shade, so the terrace is empty from noon to six
  • No light, so the evening ends when the sun goes down
  • Materials that fade, crack or rust after two summers

A proper outdoor kitchen fixes all of this in one go, and it is planned around how you actually cook and entertain.

Free and without obligation. You get a 3D design of your kitchen before you decide anything.

Who you work with

One team from first sketch to first dinner

Outdoor Living Spain is run by Chris Tunmore, who has lived and worked on the Costa del Sol for more than 30 years. The same team that measures your terrace designs the kitchen, builds it and installs it, so nothing gets lost between a designer, a supplier and three different trades. Founded in 2018, with our office in Marbella and our own workshop and showroom on the industrial estate in Estepona, where you can see and touch the worktops and finishes before you decide.

How it works

From site visit to first dinner in under a month

Three steps. You only decide after you have seen your kitchen in 3D and have a fixed price.

  1. Free site visit. We come to your home, measure the space and ask how you like to cook and entertain.

  2. 3D design and fixed quote. You get a 3D design of your kitchen and a fixed price. Change it until it is right.

  3. Built and installed. We manufacture the kitchen, install it and connect gas, water and electrics. You cook the same evening.

Free and without obligation. You get a 3D design of your kitchen before you decide anything.

Questions and answers

What villa owners ask us before they book

Straight answers on price, timing and what is included. If your question is not here, WhatsApp or call us.

What does a project cost?

It depends on what you build and the materials you choose. Our outdoor kitchen price guide gives real price ranges, and you get a fixed price with your free 3D design.

Are the site visit and 3D design really free?

Yes. You get the visit, the 3D design and a fixed quote without any obligation.

Which areas do you cover?

The Costa del Sol from Mijas to Sotogrande, including Marbella, Benahavís and Estepona. Ask us if you are further away.

Do you also build for apartments and penthouses?

Yes. Our modular system is made for terraces where you can't build in brick, and is assembled on site with little mess.

Do you build for restaurants and bars?

Yes. We design outdoor kitchens around your menu and how your team works.

Which brands do you install?

Beefeater, Alfa, Monolith, Grandhall, Incredible Grills and Smokey Bandit for cooking, plus [CONFIRM: pergola and awning brands].

Do you connect the gas, water and electrics?

Yes. We connect gas, water and electrics as part of the installation, so the kitchen is ready to use the day we finish.

How long does it take?

Typically under a month from the site visit to your first dinner.

Is there a warranty?
