Marbella Description - sleeps 14-20   (575 sq m, including terraces & balconies)

Villa del Gato was constructed over the turn of the century, completed in 2003, with the interior design upgraded in 2016 and the entire pool area rebuilt in 2020. It comprises a substantial villa, luxuriously finished and appointed, set over a sloping site on three floors, whose large open-plan living area looks onto a large dining terrace under a pergola beside the 10x5m swimming pool. From this and the upper floor, there are panoramic views to Marbella's iconic La Concha mountain range, south-west towards Gibraltar, and across the Mediterranean to the mountains of Morocco. The accommodation runs to 4 luxurious double bedroom suites, a large living area with working fireplace, separate Entrance Hall and large kitchen. In addition, there is a super-king double bedroom on the main floor (next to the guest loo) and two further super-king double bedrooms on the lower floor, all also sharing a bathroom with laundry facilities. Outside there are several sun terraces and decks, one housing a rusticly-secluded jacuzzi with amazing views, all set within what is a huge garden, by Marbella standards. In addition to jetset Marbella, Puerto Banús, etc., Granada, Sevilla and all the major Moorish destinations of Andalucía are within day-trip range...
