Villa Malibu

Multi-million pound Villa Malibu is exactly the kind of jaw-dropping pad that Marbella’s celebrities and super rich sun-worshipers would happily chill out in style and where large families can live the dream. Hollywood heart-throb Antonio Banderas is just one of the neighbours in the exclusive Malibu Beach suburb of Marbella so who knows who else might be spotted at the 5-star Los Monteros Spa Hotel and La Cabane Beach Club, just a few minutes’ walk away.

Spacious and luxurious is an understatement when it comes to this dream villa, set in 2,500m² of private, pristine garden where families can take full advantage of the Costa del Sol sunshine. The 12×5 metre pool takes centre stage and has beach-style access at the one end for parents to splash in the shallows with babies and toddlers. Grown-ups can soothe away stress in the adjacent Whirlpool or lounge on the sunbeds around the pool while children play on the surrounding lawns or have a bounce on the netted trampoline or set up a den in the tree-house climbing frame with a slide. A poolside lounge provides welcome shade as temperatures soar, not only furnished with comfy sofas but also featuring its own corner bar for sipping chilled Cava and cocktails, while sizzling steaks and sardines ‘a la plancha’ on the Weber BBQ.

Overlooking the pool, the fabulous summer room is the focal point of the villa, with wall-to -wall sliding glass doors so the luxurious interior spills seamlessly into the garden. The room brims with designer style and has been furnished with luxurious sofas and a funky dining table for 12 beneath a pergola style raftered ceiling that lets the sun dapple through. Inside the villa proper, the big living room is another luxurious, contemporary space for families to relax, complete with Bang and Olufsen sound system and huge flat screen TV, but then there’s also a cinema room where families can settle into leather couches with some popcorn for their very own screening of a variety of films.

Needless to say the sleek kitchen is state of the art, with Miele and Siemens appliances and an adjacent dining area which is handy for serving up children’s snacks and suppers. All the bedrooms in the main villa are lush and spacious with their own TV, luxury ensuite and doors to a balcony, terrace or the garden. The master bedroom also has its own mini gym and dressing room plus the villa has a self contained apartment that provides even more peace and privacy for a couple or perhaps for grandparents.

Accommodation Overview:

Villa Malibu consists of a 4-bedroom house plus a self contained apartment, to accommodate 11 family and friends, plus babies, in plenty of space and the lap of luxury. The huge master bedroom has a king-size bed, mini gym and dressing room. The second guest room has a double bed and a family room, with an L-shaped layout, has twin beds and a small double, which is handy for a teenager or a nanny. A ground floor suite, with a double bedroom, opens onto the poolside area and would be ideal for families with babies and toddlers or for older relatives.
