No filters.As one of the premiere destinations on Spain’s Costa del Sol, Marbella is known for its beautiful beaches, fine dining, and great golfing. Marbella luxury villas let you experience the best of this glamorous town while also making a perfect base through which to explore Andalucía, Spain’s celebrated southern region.
The history of Marbella luxury villas dates back to when Roman villas dotted what was then known as “Salduba.” This gave way to Moorish and eventually Christian rule, leading to the traditional Andalucian style architecture and courtyard design that can still be seen today.
Marbella’s reputation for high-end luxury grew during the 1950s and 60s when Hollywood stars and European aristocrats first discovered its charms. The Mediterranean lifestyle was all the rage, and so Marbella luxury villas featured whitewashed walls, terracotta walls, and traditional landscaping.
Today, luxury villas in Marbella represent some of the best stays in an area known for its opulence. They reflect both the city’s celebrated history and its present status, with plenty of modern amenities for even the most discerning traveller.
Renting a luxury villa in Marbella is easy with Rental Escapes. First, choose your travel dates and party size. From there, your Rental Escapes villa specialist will present you with the best available Marbella luxury villas. After, your concierge customizes your trip, including transportation, excursions, tours, reservations, chef service, boat charters, and more.
Marbella luxury villas can be found in a variety of shapes and sizes. From large villas with pools in the Golf Valley to former boutique hotels in the Old Town, there’s a stay here to suit all tastes and party sizes.
Top places to rent in Marbella include Nueva Andalucía, known for its large villas and golf courses; Marbella Golden Mile, a large stretch of coastline with beautiful beaches; Old Marbella, with its narrow cobblestone streets; and Puerto Banus, Marbella’s exclusive marina with its upscale shops, restaurants, and nightlife.
No matter where you stay, you can expect top-end amenities, including large private pools and jacuzzis, sprawling outdoor living areas, gourmet kitchens, and more. You can also expect 5-star service, including from your Rental Escapes villa specialist and concierge.
