Villa for sale in Marbella Golden Mile

Villa La Serrana is a private estate of a kind that rarely comes to market on the Golden Mile: 1,500 m² built on 10,000 m² of mature gardens, just moments from Puente Romano, with seven suites, seven bathrooms and the feel of a small boutique resort behind its gates.

Each of the seven suites has its own bathroom and has been individually finished in calm natural tones, with integrated technology and smart TVs. The standout is a duplex penthouse suite with its own private cinema and open sea views. The main living areas are open-plan, with dining and sitting rooms that flow onto a series of sea-view terraces, outdoor lounges and shaded conversation areas.

The outdoor centre of the estate is its pool club: a heated swimming pool and heated plunge pool, a private chiringuito bar, Balinese beds, a sandy beach-style lounging area, outdoor dining and a barbecue area. Wellness is covered by a private gym, a treatment room and a sauna looking into the gardens, and the estate includes its own tennis court. Parking takes eight cars behind gated access with monitored, 24-hour security.

The Golden Mile needs little introduction: the beaches, restaurants and beach clubs of Puente Romano and Marbella Club are minutes away, and Marbella's old town and Puerto Banús sit at either end of the promenade.

Worth knowing: the estate has been run as a high-end serviced retreat, so it works equally as a substantial private residence or as a going concern with an established hospitality set-up. The price is on application, and running-cost figures are not published.
