Marbella villa rentals

Villa 7 min walk from the beach with heated pool.
Fantastic place for families to stay. The house is clean, tidy and well equipped, and well located for the beach, restaurants and play area. We loved the pool, we chose not to pay for heating which was fine. The views are stunning and made for a relaxing and peaceful week. Mar is a fantastic host and was quick to respond when we had any questions. Be aware the house has a lot of stairs and is over several levels so may not be ideal for people of limited mobility.

3 Bed Dream Villa with Pool & Panoramic Sea Views
Absolutely beautiful villa- it has everything you need and an amazing pool/ view. We really enjoyed our stay here- as mentioned on some other reviews the villa is on a hill so this may be an issue for some guests. However, for us the location was great, shops very nearby and a short walk from the centre/ restaurants and beach. Nicola was quick to communicate and was really helpful during our stay too!

Exclusive 5* Villa
This villa is beautiful and the view is absolutely stunning! The view is so beautiful that it almost didn’t seem real, we kept joking that it looked AI generated, like it was a Microsoft desktop wallpaper! Being able to communicate directly with the house manager (Pepe) was great to answer any queries we had. Pepe did a great job showing us around when we arrived and was flexible with arrival considering we had a 2.5 year old with us. The villa is as described. We spent the majority of our time in the pool mesmerised by the view. Marbella and Puerto Banús is only a 20 minute uber away. Plus we managed to get some uber eats delivered to us one night. There’s a mini market a 10 minute walk away. Unfortunately it started heavily raining (unusual) while we were in the mini market and the owner was SO kind to offer us a car ride back to the villa! Thank you Hamza! Overall we had an amazing time & will be back again!

Villa BuenaVista Hills - Pool - SeaView - Grill
I wanted to thank Stefan and his staff for their professionalism and friendliness. Knowing that our arrival was scheduled for the morning, they anticipated the check-in by 3 hours making our entry into the house more comfortable. The villa we booked is in a very nice and modern residential area that, thanks to the surveillance, makes everything safer. The villa is beautiful, modern and welcoming with stunning views of the bay. It is really equipped with everything you need to make your stay unforgettable. From the modern and impeccable furnishings to the choice of details, every little detail is perfectly in tune with the style of the house. I recommend everyone to stay in this magnificent villa to experience the wow effect of when you enter and see for the first time outside the magnificent view that extends before your eyes! Thank you Stefan! See you soon!! Manuel

Luxury villa with heated pool for 12 to 14 people
This is our second time staying in one of Carlos’ villas and it will definitely not be our last. The villa is incredible. We were a group of 12 and there was plenty of room for everyone. All bathrooms were ensuite and the rooms were all great sizes. The house is incredibly well stocked anything at all that you could think of needing it’s there. Carlos is so easy to communicate with and provides great local recommendations. Would not hesitate to recommend this villa to anyone.

Luxury Mijas villa with pool
🌟 Review for the house in Mijas, Andalusia A special place of rest and strength. The house in Mijas impressed us from the first moment with its loving decor and peaceful atmosphere. It is equipped with a lot of sense of aesthetics and comfort – there is really nothing missing here. All the amenities are high-quality, well thought-out and left nothing to be desired. Particularly noteworthy is the exceptional cleanliness – everything was well-maintained and spotless. The garden is regularly cared for by a gardener, the pool is cleaned by a pool boy – a noticeable luxury that works unobtrusively in the background. A warm thank you also to Roseann, the hostess: attentive, reliable and with a fine sense of the well-being of her guests. We especially recommend this house for couples, those seeking peace and families looking for a place to recharge and simply enjoy. We will be back.

Casa Calma ǀ Private Pool ǀ Close to Beach + Golf
We had an amazing time, stunning property, fabulous pool. The kitchen has everything you need, plenty of outside space. Secluded garden with a view of the sea in the distance, shops and towns anywhere from 10 -20 minutes away by car. We came to relax and unwind and it was the perfect place for family time. The host Dirk is excellent, helpful, immediate response to any question. The house has everything you need and more. We didn’t want to leave.

Exclusive Villa Frontline Golf- and Seaview
Yvo is the best host one could wish for and his location is nothing but fantastic! Would book the same house again anytime without a doubt! Thank you for an incredible stay at your lovely place!

Enjoy the best view in Marbella!
The apartment is in an older, large apartment building right on the beach. It is renovated and beautifully furnished, just like in the photos and has a nice layout. The bed is totally comfortable. The views are sensational and the location anyway. You can hear the sea at night and experience great sunsets. The kitchen is well equipped and there was even a pair of binoculars. Everything was great, we can fully recommend this place. We'll definitely be back.

Stunning seafront sunset in Marbella center
We had an amazing stay at this apartment in Marbella! The location couldn’t be better — right on the beach with stunning views from the balcony.

The host was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our visit, making check-in and any questions seamless. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and scenic getaway!

Marbella, 2 Room Apt, seaview, directly at beach
A perfect apartment with an unbelievable view. The location could not be better, surrounded by numerous top rated restaurants, a stone throw from the beach and a 10-15 minute walk to Old Town. The location in Marbella allowed for many short day trips to the surrounding cities as well. Wilfried was a gracious host, extremely accommodating and nice. We hope to be back, thanks again for the hospitality

Small house between sea & mountain
Beautiful retreat for some quiet but luxurious days surrounded by nature. Very kind and helpful owners! Special recommendation for the private outdoor jacuzzi, it's amazing 😍

Beautiful house with ocean and mountain views
A superb villa, very spacious and clean. Just a note that it is at the top of a small mountain but wow when you get to the top the views are truly spectacular. A great spot for exploring the area and Ubers are easy to get for trips into Malaga, would highly recommend.

Luxury house front line beach Marbella
Great location! With a gate onto the beach and a lovely beach bar next door. It's great at night sitting on the terrace listening to the waves.

Casa Lunacer. Old city with views
Beautiful and clean place with a fantastic view. Walking distance from hiking, restaurants, museums and shopping. At the same time the apartment is very quiet and peaceful. Parking instructions were very helpful and easy to follow. Apartment had everything we needed and was very clean. I had to work few hours every day and the internet connection was great. Sitting on a balcony with my laptop and morning coffee, enjoying a beautiful sunrise made work very enjoyable:) Host was very responsive and friendly. We will recommended this place to all our friends!

Malaga, CASUEÑA Tropical house in Malaga city.
What a wonderful time we had at Casueña. Alicia and Jorge were so welcoming, helpful, friendly, and fun. They met us at the villa and showed us everything we needed to know, and then were always on hand for anything else we needed. The villa was so well equiped, including basic food, tea, coffee, and fruit to get us going. Also, on the first morning, Alicia and Jorge gave us a basket of eggs from their own chickens! We loved the beautiful furniture, artwork and ornaments which all added to Casueña's charm. Since the weather was hot we spent most of our time in the stunning garden and lovely pool. Beautiful mature plants, shrubs and trees made the garden feel magical, as did the many birds who visited including a familly of swallows. A short trip (about 2 miles) down to the village of Santa Rosalía provided a good supermarket (open every day), cafes, and restaurants. Thank you Alicia and Jorge - you are very special people and we will definitely be back to visit you and Casueña.

Your guide to Marbella
Welcome to Marbella
Marbella embodies the essence of Spain’s renowned Costa del Sol, with 17 miles of shoreline luring sunseekers to its azure Mediterranean waters, as it boasts 320 days of sunshine a year. The sea is a way of life here, with four marinas, including the popular Puerto Banús. But there are just as many treasures on land, all doused with Andalusian flavors, represented in its whitewashed architecture and orange trees aplenty: It’s no wonder that the historic area is anchored by Plaza de Los Naranjos, or Orange Square, dating from the Renaissance era. Also within the winding streets of Old Town, which sits in the Sierra Blanca’s foothills, are preserved sections of Islamic walls and towers that formed the ninth-century Arab fortress. But above all, Marbella just has that sense of elevated living, drawing celebrities, culture seekers, and beach lovers alike.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Marbella
Of course everyone wants to be at the Spanish Mediterranean destination in the summer when the beach weather is idyllic, but that also makes May through August the busiest period, with higher prices and heavier crowds. April, September, and November may feel more manageable and the water temperatures are still suitable for a swim. The winter temperatures dip low enough that it’s simply too cold to get into the water, but the land temperatures remain moderate enough for exploration by day. The major annual festivals include the Marbella Carnival in February, Festivities of San Bernabé in June, Virgen del Carmen in July, and San Pedro Alántara Fair in October.
Top things to do in Marbella
Beaches
The famous blue waters of the Spanish Mediterranean draw visitors to the golden sands — and with two dozen beaches lined along the city’s southern coast, there’s no shortage of choices. Artola-Cabopino Beach within the Dunas de Artola nature preserve offers a relaxed landscape among the dunes, while Playa de la Bajadilla, Playa de Rio Real, and Playa de Venus are closer to the action in the city center.
Marbella Old Town
Wander the charming streets of the historic city center, where ruins of the area’s Roman, Arabic, and Christian pasts are all preserved. Highlights include the Arabic Castel’s ruins, the Church of Our Lady of the Incarnation, and Orange Square. Also make sure to wander down Avenida del Mar, which has fountains, gardens, pergolas, and 10 sculptures by Salvador Dalí along its route.
Museum of Contemporary Spanish Engraving
Housed inside the 16th-century Renaissance-style former Bazán Hospital, the museum’s collection of more than 4,000 prints includes works by all the Spanish masters.
