Tropical Ruby Marbella, Andalusia

Property Description

To call this split-level penthouse bright and modern is an understatement. The design is sleek, sure – and yes, natural light is all but guaranteed to spill through the floor-to-ceiling windows. But what turns an otherwise ordinary apartment into a tropical getaway are the two sun-kissed terraces. Between the bubbling Jacuzzi, cosy outdoor sofas and alfresco dining areas, you'll have plenty of spots to sit back with a cocktail and admire the views. The communal pool is a bonus – a pretty big one, to be fair – and the location is close to Marbella and Puerto Banus, so beach days and adventures further afield are both easily achieved.

Home truths:

*The TV has many channels, as well as the option for streaming services like Netflix, Apple TV and HBO
*The dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace if you need to work from home
