Description
Villa Benahavis is one of Andalucia’s finest and most authentic homes. It was the former summer residence of a Duke from Madrid and his family. The villa, with 7 fantastic bedroom suites sleeping 14 guests, offers peace and tranquillity as well as sumptuous, palatial accommodation in a countryside setting.
The villa is set in its own grounds surrounded by mature olive groves and is approached via its own tree-lined avenue. It is a very special place with authentic Andalucian character and charm. Steeped in history, the villa has been sympathetically upgraded over the past few years. The villa is situated close to the lovely town of Benahavis and the Los Aqueros Golf and Country Club.
Benahavis has many high-class restaurants scattered along the narrow, winding streets. It is very picturesque and is reached by driving through the Rio Guadalmina gorge up into the hills. La Aldea is almost a village within a village and was the brainchild of the British sculptor David Marshall. His gallery is one of La Aldea’s main features, along with the marble fountains, antiques and old-fashioned doors and grilles. There are 7 golf courses in the immediate area.
Villa Benahavis boasts 7 stunning and spacious bedroom suites, each with its own fabulous ensuite bathroom and large private patio. Having your own private outdoor space is a real luxury and a fabulous way to start or end the day. Overlooking the pool, the two largest suites, ‘The Honeymoon Suites’, are huge and are located on the first floor with kingsize beds and dreamy views from the delightful terraces. The sunset views are spectacular. The remaining 5 gorgeous bedrooms are on the ground floor, situated around the main patio. They each have queen-size beds, stunning ensuite bathrooms with deluxe fittings from the like of Sbordoni of Italy and they have generous private terraces.
There are several atmospheric living spaces, one bright and airy featuring a wonderful stone open fireplace and another warm and inviting with a log burner and beamed ceiling. The country kitchen is enormous with superb fittings. The Hamman is delightful and a real gem to relax in.
Villa Benahavis’ numerous terraces and patios take ‘outdoor living’ to a new level. There are intimate places to hide and relax everywhere, boasting delightful views in every direction. You can enjoy breakfast on a terrace in the warm sunshine or find a shady spot to laze in the afternoon and catch up on your holiday read. The lounge area next to the pool is wonderful. The swimming pool is very attractive, with stunning views and plenty of loungers.
