Zest Coast Marbella, Andalusia

Property Description

With its sprawling Mediterranean gardens, dazzling pool and charming living area, there's no denying this villa is a true Andalusian retreat. It's impossible not to feel at home here, whether you're reading by the fire, cooking up a storm in the kitchen or relaxing in the main bedroom's soaker tub. And if fun in the sun is what you're after, the patios and outdoor sitting areas are excellent spots to soak up those Spanish rays.

Each morning, wake up feeling well-rested and ready for adventure in the comfortable bedrooms. Tuck into an alfresco breakfast of avocados, oranges and mangos from the garden before taking a dip in the private pool as birds sing and the fruit trees sway in the gentle breeze. Spend the afternoon sprawled out on the lounge chairs, savouring a glass of wine and enjoying the serenity that surrounds you. When you're feeling peckish, throw some seafood and veggies on the barbecue and dine under the starry night sky.

Fancy a change of pace? Take a short drive to the buzzing centre of Marbella for upscale boutiques, delicious restaurants and lively bars. You're also not far from the region's postcard-perfect beaches – the closest is Playa del Real de Zaragoza, about a twenty-minute walk away.
