While the south of Spain might be well known for vibrant cities like Malaga and Granada, why not try something a little under the radar? Up-and-coming metropolises such as Nerja are havens for fabulous beaches, bustling shopping streets, delicious restaurants, and landmark sights like the Balcón de Europa. From this Mediterranean sea vista, it’s just a seven-minute drive to a modern villa steeped in luxury, and away from the crowds. In this hilly residential district, sea views are of course as readily available as the coast. However, the VIP vibe of this neighbourhood would hardly feel out of place in the Hollywood Hills. A shining white exterior trimmed with balconies and chrome railings creates an almost yacht-like appearance – especially when you check it out from the back. Your courtyard has a glistening private pool, parasols, and sun loungers to complete the look of the lower deck. Inside, the lofty living room is the heart of the home – a sophisticated space where mid-century sofas meet industrial-style, metal stair bannisters. And right in the middle, hive-like lampshades made of wicker hang from the eaves, and a glass fireplace roars on the ground level. All in all, a supremely stylish home for supremely... stylish guests.
