The Biosphere Marbella, Andalusia

Property Description

While Marbella might be known for its VIP beach party and club scene, you might be surprised at what you’ll find nearby. Just over 15 kilometers from the city centre – or just over a twenty-minute drive – on the eastern edge of the Sierra de la Nieves National Park, this luxury villa swaps house music for home comforts.

While you might still fancy paying a visit to the bustling metropolis in the evening, this location is far from urban. Set in a Unesco biosphere region, nature is the main attraction. After days spent hiking and mountain biking from one of many local trails, coming back to this apartment is a dream.

Kick off your walking boots or golf shoes in the elegant lounge – the glossy, marble floors are a treat for hot feet. With cream, neutrals, and minty green making up an elegant yet understated colour palette, the decor feels truly zen. Of course with private terraces and patios, you can enjoy the great outdoors and lush lawns of the gardens (with a sangría in hand, naturally). Cool off with a dip in the glistening residents’ pool before firing up the barbecue for chargrilled gambas in time for sunset.

Home truths:
*There's a swimming pool and large courtyard, but it's shared between all residents
*The entrance is private to your home (but other guests are in the building)
*Private parking is available in a non-covered car park on-site, which is shared with other guests
*There is no dedicated workspace, but plenty of laptop-friendly spots
