The most distinguished villas in Marbella

At Callum Swan Realty, we specialise in the very best luxury real estate and offer only the most desirable homes to our clients.

Yet even we are occasionally left speechless by the sheer magnificence of a property, so we created our Marbella Distinguished Properties section where we feature only the most unique homes that are steeped in grandeur and style. Here we share with you a selection of some of our favourites, each one truly outstanding in its own special way.

A taste of Marbella’s History

The Marbella Club Hotel is where the history of the town as the destination of choice for an international elite all began. Founded by Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe, the love of glamour and the good life that he embodied endures and defines the area to this day.

Properties such as this nine bedroom home situated within the hotel complex, are testament to this ideal. With direct access to the beach and all of the hotel’s services, this home features a cinema room, beautiful indoor and outdoor pools, as well as private fitness and spa areas. Available for sale or short term let, this property exudes charm and luxury, taking us back to the days when the likes of Grace Kelly and Brigitte Bardot would frequent the area.

La Zagaleta

The exclusive mountainside retreat of La Zagaleta is internationally renowned for good reason. This award winning urbanisation is far more than simply a collection of opulent villas – it is an exclusive community founded on the philosophy of luxury and the pursuit of perfection in a tangible form. The site boasts two championship standard 18-hole golf courses, a private clubhouse with its own restaurant, riding club, tennis courts, library and discotheque, all for the exclusive use of members.

Within La Zagaleta, this bright and stunning five-bedroom home fits harmoniously into the mountain setting and is furnished in a contemporary chic style. Its large picture windows fill the property with natural light and offer breathtaking views from every room. With features such as a cinema room, gym, sauna and steam bath as well as a spectacular outside pool, this property embodies innovation and style.

Another villa in the heart of La Zagaleta is this exceptional six-bedroom suite home that has been fully remodelled by celebrated architect Marcos Sainz. It features large open plan rooms and amenities including a spa area with Turkish bath, indoor pool, massage room, heated infinity pool and a stylish BBQ area complete with bar and kitchen.

Unique villas

Further along the coast, but losing none of the Golden Mile’s exclusivity, Sotogrande is home to this cinema inspired five-bedroom villa. Utterly unique in both style and design, the property is located in the sought after Sotogrande Alto area near the famous Valderrama golf course and boasts a master bedroom with an open fireplace, sitting area, walk-in dressing room and Jacuzzi bath. Its feature staircase is inspired by the classic movie ‘Scarface’ and the lower basement is styled in the theme of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’. This area includes a faux night sky created with fibre optic lights to produce stars, sound effects and even fake cave walls. The property comes complete with a bar, 15-seat cinema room, a lift and mature tropical gardens. This truly is a one of a kind home.
