Tales of Dorada Marbella, Andalusia

Holiday Rental Description

Just a fifteen-minute walk from the pretty beach and bustling marina of Puerto Banus, this striking home is cool, comfortable and offers plenty of space for a family or a group of friends. There's even some added flexibility thanks to a self-contained one-bedroom apartment on the lower ground floor – perfect if some of your group feel like having a bit more independence.

Here, the name of the game is sunshine and relaxation, and where better to let your day-to-day worries melt away than in the private pool. There are plenty of sun lounges to keep everyone happy, a flat lawn for the kids to play on and a lovely, shady covered terrace for relaxing with drinks or dinner prepared on the barbecue.

But our favourite features have to be the ornate domed ceilings of the entrance hall and the bathroom. Giving some real charm and character to a modern, stylish home, they're quite an impressive sight – especially the one over the bathtub.
