About this property
Nestled in the prestigious La Zagaleta area, Villa Tropic invites you to experience a delightful retreat just a short drive from the vibrant Marbella. Situated 18 kilometres from the coast, this stunning four-bedroom villa combines the tranquillity of the countryside with easy access to the lively Costa del Sol. As you approach the villa via a scenic driveway, you’ll feel the allure of its contemporary design and breathtaking hillside views that stretch towards the Mediterranean.
Entering Villa Tropic, you’re welcomed by a spacious reception area, where the vast floor-to-ceiling windows immediately draw your gaze towards the outdoor pool and lush garden. The open-plan living space is bathed in natural light, highlighting the minimalist yet stylish decor. With high vaulted ceilings and a chic blend of Scandinavian-inspired furnishings, this area perfectly balances comfort and elegance. Settle into one of the plush sofas for a movie night on the large flatscreen TV, or gather around the dining table that seats ten for a hearty meal, all while enjoying the gentle breeze wafting in from outside.
The heart of the villa is undoubtedly its impressive kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and a sleek central island. Sliding glass doors lead out to a covered terrace, where an al fresco dining area awaits—ideal for evening barbecues or leisurely breakfasts overlooking the garden.
Moving through the villa, you will find four generously sized bedrooms, each designed with relaxation in mind. Two of the guest suites on the ground floor offer direct access to the garden and ensuite marble bathrooms, while upstairs, the master suite boasts panoramic views of the sea. With each room carefully styled to ensure a peaceful atmosphere, you’ll feel right at home. The villa also offers a guest apartment, comprising a double bedroom and ensuite bathroom, kitchenette and small living room.
Outside, the landscaped grounds feature beautifully manicured lawns and tropical plants surrounding the shimmering pool. This outdoor oasis, flanked by comfortable seating areas, invites you to unwind with a good book or sip a refreshing drink as the sun sets.
For those seeking recreation, the lower level of Villa Tropic surprises with a well-equipped gym, a home cinema, and an indoor pool complete with a jacuzzi. Whether you're lounging by the outdoor pool or indulging in the wellness facilities, Villa Tropic offers an unforgettable holiday experience where every moment is a chance to relax and recharge.
Villa Tropic sits within the La Zagaleta Country Club, an exclusive club offering exceptional living. With nearly 900 hectares of gated natural surroundings, it’s a unique, private and secure place to live on the Costa del Sol.
The natural woodland forms part of a reserve with carpets of flowers, lakes and wildlife adding to the tranquillity. There are a number of hiking trails for guests who want to explore the area on foot while an equestrian centre allows riders to spot the resident deer, rabbits and birdlife on horseback. If you’re after more activity, there are two pristine 18-hole golf courses reserved exclusively for residents, plus tennis courts, a bowling alley and a billiard room in the clubhouse. The clubhouse is also lively at night with summer and winter restaurants, a discotheque and bar. If you can tear yourself away from all this luxury, Marbella is just a ten-minute drive away.
Marbella dates back to Roman times and history-lovers will enjoy the archaeological remains that are still evident, including mosaic tiles and Roman villa ruins. But most visitors to Marbella come for its glitz and glamour. In the town you’ll find plenty of Michelin-starred restaurants, designer boutiques, golden sandy beaches and a marina full of super yachts. For a more authentic Andalusian experience take a stroll through the old town. Set back from the seafront it’s a charming spot with its whitewashed buildings, flower-covered balconies and cobbled streets. In the Plaza de los Naranjos, or Orange Square, you can admire the Moorish and baroque architecture that bears witness to the presence of both Arabs and Christians in the fifteenth and sixteenth century. While here, be sure to stop at the Museum for Contemporary Spanish Engravings and marvel at the works of Miro, Dali and Picasso.
While Marbella offers plenty to do and see, the town of Porto Banus is 15-minutes from the casa and offers plenty of night time distractions with popular nightclubs, piano bars, beach parties and a casino.
Away from the splendour of Marbella’s coastline, lies the pretty village of Benahavis. Just a short drive from the casa it’s known as the dining room of the Costa del Sol and is brimming with Spanish restaurants, bars and local hospitality. It’s the perfect place to spend a few hours lingering over a meal while watching the sun drop behind the Serrania de Ronda Mountains.
