Description
A charming old & spacious villa in a super central location with own private bar, cinema, pool & huge gardens. A short walk to the port, the beaches, Aloha, Centro Plaza & Marbella Arena. An abundance of bars, restaurants, pool clubs, gyms, golf, tennis & shops on your doorstep. Only 800m to the port/beaches & Aloha via the new river walk. Set in luscious garden & looking out onto La Concha mountain & the river walk, the villa offers tranquillity whilst being ultra central.
Central and yet, the villa is surrounded by nature and greenery and with magnificent views, it is truly an oasis in which to relax in...no need for a car.
The villa has its own luxuriously furnished bar with pool table, cinema area and top of the range speakers, which you can control directly from your phone. It also has a professional games machine... remember Pacman etc, 500 games!
You can give us a list of what drinks you would like pre-stocked in your own private bar and we'll have them ready for your arrival.. The pub leads directly out onto the pool, which has delightful views of La Concha and the new river walk, (completion ETA August '25) that leads straight to the lively port and in the other direction to the centre of Aloha, both areas having an abundance of shopping, cafes, bars, night clubs, super clubs, pool clubs and beach clubs and lots of restaurants, from the quaint traditional, cheap and cheerful to world renowned establishments.
Two Tennis clubs are a 5-10 minute walk away and there are 19 golf clubs within a 10km radius. Centro Plaza and Marbella Arena (the old bullring) which both offer fabulous shopping (a vibrant and fun Saturday market) lively bars and plenty of dining venues are also on your doorstep.
The gardens and pool get the sun all day. You can relax in the lower garden in the open orangery amongst the trees and vines and enjoy the greenery and tranquillity or of course you can lounge by the pool. The outside lighting is beautiful and romantic for a wonderful summer's night. Super fast Wifi covers all areas.
There's plenty to do in the villa apart from relaxing by the pool and in beautiful gardens, there’s a giant outdoor chess set and for little kids and grown up kids :-) there’s a 30ft double water slide, air track, badminton area, swing ball, table tennis, table football and darts.
In the lower garden by the orangery is a small home 9-hole golf putting green and right next to it a small basic mini home gym.
For those who don't like air con (ours is brand new and quiet) we have installed quiet fans in a some of the bedrooms too.
The villa is very secure, with CCTV you can switch on or off and an easy to use fob activated alarm system. It is a very safe property with fire extinguishers and smoke alarms in every room and landing.
A super king bed is in the attached apartment. It’s great if a couple within the group would like extra privacy or ideal for a couple with a baby or for teens who want a bit of space from parents. If you need help with babysitting, we can happily help this too.
Although central, the villa is surrounded by nature and greenery and with magnificent views, it is truly an oasis in which to relax in.
A lively Saturday and Sunday market is a five minute walk away with bars and stalls busy and full of atmosphere, perfect for a day of shopping or a good breakfast or lunch.
The Golden Mile is a 5 min taxi/drive with the five star Puente Romano and Marbella Club hotel offering upmarket nightlife, restaurants Nobu, Serafina, Lena, Mamzel and Notablu to name a few. The area and location of the villa are unbeatable. So central to enjoy all Puerto Banus and Marbella have to offer, yet slightly set back from the port so peaceful.
There are so many brilliant gyms and beach gyms you can join throughout your stay, we can happily help you with more info about them.
