An ultra-luxury three-storey, five-bed villa located within walking distance to the beach in Guadalmina and nestled amongst tropical gardens. As soon as you approach this spectacular villa, you'll know you've chosen a property that is truly stunning. Extensive gardens of native Spanish flora surround the house, offering peace and tranquillity. The cobbled drive takes you to the entrance, and as soon as you enter the house, you'll snap into holiday mode.
High ceilings, tiled floors and crisp white walls all run throughout the property. Making your way through the grand hallway, you'll find a large, brightly lit and open-plan living, dining and kitchen area with large french doors which have pool and garden views. The living room boasts modern decor in neutral tones and two large comfortable sofas to curl up on. Adjoining the living area is a dining table that can seat ten people and is situated next to the fully-equipped kitchen, which has a large island and everything you need to create freshly prepared meals. Like the rest of the space, the kitchen is bathed in natural light and as it's perfectly positioned to look onto the greenery, making morning coffee here is a real pleasure.
Because the villa has both indoor and outdoor dining areas, you can socialise and get comfortable in whichever part of the house you choose. The outside seating area is perfect for dining al fresco, where you can spend the evenings sipping on Spanish wines whilst the warm air flows around you or open the french doors and let the gentle Spanish breeze swirl through the indoor dining room.
The main bedroom is on the first floor and features a walk-in wardrobe, dual en-suite bathrooms with jacuzzi tubs, and a private terrace. The remaining four bedrooms all have stylish en-suite bathrooms and are airy and spacious (with one being located on the ground floor). True to the villa's luxurious aesthetic, each bedroom is decorated in neutral tones and dotted with touches of stylish furniture. The adjoining bathrooms are sleekly decorated with marble and modern fixtures and fittings. With a bathroom for each bedroom, privacy truly is no issue here. Every floor on the property has large windows and beautiful views of the grounds, so guests can enjoy waking up and settling into the day with a coffee in hand.
It's hard to choose a highlight from this ultra-chic villa, but guests love that there's a cinema room and gym on the lower level, along with an office space for those who need to catch up on a quick bit of work. The highlight of the gardens is undoubtedly the private pool. Guests spend hours here, and with comfortable sun loungers included, sun worshippers will be in their element. For a change of scenery, make your way upstairs to the rooftop terrace where you can sunbathe or dine with friends and family.Villa Ciabella is set in the pleasant beachside community of Guadalmina and offers a beach with a pretty stretch of golden sand, restaurants and stylish bars. The area has a large supermarket, delis and charming restaurants and cafes, as well as an excellent children's indoor play park.
A twenty-five-minute drive away is Marbella. Surrounded by the Sierra Blanca mountains, the vibrant coastal city has something to suit everyone, not just the jet-set crowd. The old town is immaculately maintained and characterised by mazes of narrow lanes with colourful houses, flower boxes and stunning bougainvillaea. You can see why the beaches continue to be such a draw for tourists year after year.
A ten-minute drive from the villa is the luxury marina complex of Puerto Banus. Sandwiched between the mountains and the sea, the marina is the perfect place to see and be seen, snap those all-important selfies, and indulge in the best fine dining Andalusia has to offer. The glamourous town is rich in high-end shopping malls, restaurants and bars. Shop 'til you drop at the luxury boutiques that line the streets then hit the waterfront to eat, drink and be entertained.
A ten-minute drive is San Pedro de Alcantara, a quaint town which is full of history and popular with day-trippers. The town has retained its authentic Spanish charm over the years and remains relatively untouched by the surrounding developments. Spend a day exploring the narrow streets of the old town and visiting the small shops, cafes and bars that line them. Take a stroll along the palm tree-lined promenade before you settle into a restaurant for tapas and wine and bask in the warm Spanish air.
Golfers will also be in their absolute element, with several world-renowned golf courses in the area to choose from. The nearby Villa Padierna, which has a golf resort with three 18-hole courses and hosted the Obama family in 2010, is a stunning place to spend the day.
