Marbella Villa 1168

The Resort offers an old-world Spain of modern comforts, a grand hacienda of five-star amenities – a new standard for bespoke luxury, as only Andalusia can promise. It is here, within the sun-drenched interiors of an authentic estate, that underfloor heating unrolls underfoot, that lighting and temperature are controlled by a domotics system, that a gourmet kitchen offers top-of-the-range appliances, that Airplay sound booms from integrated speakers, that lightning-fast WiFi speeds out to the pool.

This seven-bedroom estate unfolds over 800 spacious square-metres (8,600 square-feet) of romantic cortijo, standing proud over the most scenic countryside in Andalusia: the green, rolling hills of Ronda, grassy fields alive with galloping horses, and, further, the jagged and timeworn peaks of the Sierra Nevadas.

During your stay, a lovely housekeeper and property manager are on hand to ensure your comfort. Once you enter the gated property, you’ll feel like you’re in your own private boutique hotel, complete with an infinity pool and hot tub, soothing water features, a children’s play area.  Spend the day exploring by bicycle or lounging on the terrace by the pool, then try out Spanish cuisine on the barbecue or in the wood-fired oven.

The stunning interiors of Villa 1168 blend traditional architecture with modern furnishings, creating sophisticated yet comfortable spaces where the whole family can relax. Patterned tile floors, beamed ceilings, dark wood trim and a stately fireplace show off the villa’s heritage, while a leather sectional, glass-topped coffee and dining tables and wicker-backed dining chairs feel contemporary and inviting. The fully equipped kitchen is particularly welcoming, thanks to a large farmhouse-style breakfast table.

While you could spend your stay at the villa, simply watching the light move across the landscape, it’s well worth exploring the region. Spend a day marvelling at the scenery in one of the two nearby national parks or visit the city of Ronda to see the old city and the dramatic ravine or enjoy a honeymoon-worthy dinner with spectacular hilltop views.

Take a day trip to Seville for incredible architecture and equally memorable flamenco performances, to oceanfront Malaga for its museums or to Marbella and the beaches of the Costa del Sol if you’re in need of sand and sun or a round of golf.
