The Marbella Life Marbella, Andalusia

Property Description

Vibrant and modern with traditional touches – we especially love the beautiful tiles around the decorative fireplace – this home is ideal for anyone looking to explore all that Marbella has to offer. Nip downstairs for breakfast at the local cafe before heading out to the Plaza de los Naranjos, passing the remarkable Church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación along the way. There is plenty to see on foot here and we can almost guarantee that you’ll find another photo opportunity hidden around every new corner. The beach is minutes away, so long lazy days can be spent building sandcastles, sunbathing, and eating ice cream before it melts.

You don’t have to sever the connection to the beautiful Mediterranean sun and fresh air completely when you return home – simply open the traditional wooden shutters to have it all rush inside. Help yourself to a coffee from the kitchen and enjoy it upstairs on the sun-drenched terrace.

The quaint kitchen is quite compact and you might not be able to practise your Andalusian recipes here, but you’ll have space enough for light bites which you can enjoy at the dining table when you’re not spending your time sampling tapas bars all around town.

At night, after wine and nibbles, you can retire to any one of the generous bedrooms, but not before treating yourself to a long soak in the tub.
