Ultra-Luxe Hillside Retreat Above Marbella

Set within the tranquil hills of Benahavís, this exceptional five-bedroom, five-bathroom residence is a masterclass in understated luxury, where contemporary architecture meets a deeply restorative natural setting. Inspired by Scandinavian design, the home pairs crisp, linear forms with warm woods, organic textures, and curated furnishings, creating an atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and effortlessly comfortable.

Arranged across three levels, the villa is thoughtfully planned for privacy and flow. Arrival is on the upper level, leading down to the heart of the home: an elegant lounge that opens onto expansive terraces, a striking pool, and a beautifully positioned primary suite. Floor-to-ceiling glazing frames sweeping sea and valley views, drawing the horizon into everyday living and enhancing the sense of calm throughout.

The lower level hosts the remaining sleeping quarters, including three additional en-suite bedrooms and a charming children’s room with bunk beds, ideal for family stays without compromising refinement. Throughout, the interiors echo the surrounding forest through natural fabrics and tactile finishes, while standout Danish pieces elevate the clean modern aesthetic.

Outdoor living is central to the experience. Sun-warmed terraces sit beside the pool, offering a private oasis for long afternoons, sunset gatherings, and quiet reflection. A fully equipped kitchen features premium Bosch appliances, a Gaggenau double fridge, and carefully chosen essentials for effortless entertaining. With its serene hillside position and seamless indoor-outdoor design, this is a world-class retreat on the Costa del Sol.
