Rooftop Escape

Indoor and outdoor spaces blend seamlessly together in this modern villa. Out on the terrace, you’ll find a barbecue to practise your grill skills on, and a dining table for enjoying alfresco meals. There's also a heated outdoor pool, which you can cool off in before relaxing in the sun on one of the deck chairs.

All three bedrooms are bathed in natural light and come with en-suite bathrooms, while the main bedroom has glass doors that open onto a little balcony with sweeping views down to the ocean. Up on the third floor is a vast roof terrace with panoramic vistas. Make use of the sun trap lounge chairs, or dine in the shade of the pergola.

Golf lovers rejoice – the Costa del Sol is famed for its spectacular courses, and the picturesque Miraflores Golf Course is less than 3 kilometres from the villa. For those who prefer sun, sand, and sea, head to Playa Lucera, the beautiful sandy beach 1.4 kilometres away. Come evening, head into Marbella, where you’ll find excellent restaurants and buzzy beach bars. Alternatively, take advantage of the unparalleled views from your roof terrace and watch the mountain sunset, preferably with a cocktail in hand, before dining beneath the stars.
