If you're looking for a luxurious retreat close to the beach with a few rounds of golf on the side, this stylish Marbella townhouse should be just the ticket.

Part of an exclusive residential complex, you've got Cabopino Golf course just a ten-minute drive away. However, you don't need to be a dab hand with the clubs to enjoy the perks of this complex. There's plenty to keep everyone happy here, with access to two outdoor pools (think Balinese-style daybeds and pool bar), an indoor pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, Turkish bath, gym, mini club, and the list goes on.

Back at home, you'll love this recently renovated townhouse's crisp, contemporary interiors. Pad out from your bedroom onto the first-floor veranda with your morning coffee to soak up the rays or beat the heat with a lazy breakfast on the shady terrace on the ground floor. Everything you could need to rustle up a bite to eat can be found in the sleek, modern kitchen –⁠ or keep things simple and mosey down to the on-site restaurant for brunch instead.

And when the sea finally beckons, take your pick from Marbella's glorious beaches –⁠ Artola, Cabopino, La Fontanilla, San Pedro de Alcántara, and the famed Puerto Banús are all just a short drive away.
