Scandi-chic On The Beach

Sleek and contemporary, with a shimmering swimming pool, this Costa del Sol villa has your holiday in the sun covered. It stands pristine white against the bright blue sky with the green of a perfectly manicured lawn around the pool. Pull up and lounger and soak in the rays, or sit on a plush sofa on the shaded patio where there's an additional plunge pool to cool off. There’s outdoor dining for the group courtesy of a barbecue grill too. Inside, there’s a sense of Scandi-minimalism in the kitchen, where a dove-grey breakfast bar is the perfect spot to perch up with your morning coffee and the light-wood dining table can more than handle the bustle of family breakfast time. Unwind in the living room where a soothing palette of greys and whites are broken up with rust-orange cushions. The glass doors here slide open to the terrace to let in a warm breeze. It’s a five-minute drive (or twenty-minute walk) to the soft stretch of sand at Calahonda Beach, where bars and restaurants line the seafront. Plus, you’ve got golf courses galore on your doorstep and it’s a twenty-minute drive to Marbella for a bit of glitz and glamour of an evening.
