Villa by the beach 5 bedrooms

This is the classic case where the house is good but the surroundings are not. The pool was heated and provided a few hours of fun for the kids. It isn’t a huge pool, so beware that older kids may become bored with it. However it was great overall—especially for our 8-year-olds. The property itself is clean and pleasant. It may not be considered luxurious by some standards—note especially the slow combined washer and dryer in the kitchen—and I have to admit I expected slightly more for the high cost of the rental. But still. It was a well-appointed, comfortable house. And without visiting a bunch of other listings in person, it may simply be what is available in the area.What concerns me about the listing is the environment around the property. It is by a beach whose view is tarnished by jet skis for rent, heavy concrete ruins, and industrial equipment just hanging out there in the sand: tractors, front/end loaders, etc. It’s a grungy, desolate beach with no visitors. It is a 5 minute walk from the house to get to nicer sands, most notably a beach club just to the right of the house.In general, though, the environment around the house is in a bit of a no-mans land. There is graffiti on the exterior walls of the house facing the beach. It is a 15 minute walk to the main promenade of San Pedro. But it’s not a pleasant walk, as it is full of abandoned and fenced-off areas, undeveloped and unpaved walkways, and a general look of neglect. I expected beauty in Marbella.

Just off the beach, a private home with space for everyone. We had a group ages 20-80 years old and everyone has their own room and bathroom, We loved the backyard, outdoor grill and all the terraces. Our host and caretaker were super responsive and made the stay very easy.

We (a group of 8 ladies) have had a wonderful five night stay in this gorgeous villa. There was so much room for us all, it was spotlessly clean, well equipped and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The garden area is beautiful and private and the beach is literally over the road. There is a supermarket a 10 minute walk away and plenty of beautiful restaurants and bars a 15 minute walk away plus a couple on the beach next to the villa. Our host was exceptional at communication and incredibly helpful.He also recommended some fabulous restaurants to try plus an amazing, and very reasonably priced, private chef who catered for us one memorable evening!We highly recommend this wonderful home!

Das Haus hat eine gute Aufteilung und war sehr sauber. Ein paar Möbel sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Ein kleine Auffrischung würde guttun.

We had a great relaxed holiday. Check in process slick and straight forward. Similarly check out process went with out a hitch. Property clean and tidy.
