Welcome to Villa La Galeria

“La Galeria” – not a gallery but “The Gallery.” Remarkable. Distinct. And like no other.

It is an apt description for Villa La Galeria, elevated at the edge of the most established and famous community in Marbella. Villa La Galeria, where designer brights breathe glamour into a neutral seaside palette. Villa La Galeria, once home to a famous writer and an esteemed politician. Villa La Galeria, dropped onto the Sierra Blanca mountains with panoramas of the Mediterranean Sea.

Villa La Galeria, a vivid home where art and sculpture decorate a triple-height entrance gallery – the villa’s namesake. Indeed, there is no name more apropos for this distinctive home, as one-of-a-kind as the artwork within.

Because, this is the classic charm of the Costa del Sol, refitted for modern needs. This is a synchrony of warmth and high design, of past and present – a celebration of old-guard Marbella and contemporary art, of traditional Spain and modern design. This is unequalled style and unmatched location, in a setting of outstanding beauty.

Welcome to Villa La Galeria.

Step into a private showing, a living gallery and vibrant objet d’art as distinctive as the Mediterranean and mountain vistas framed in every window

Open a door into another world – where a triple-height entrance forms a round tower, ablaze with the colours and textures of original paintings and sculpture.

Walk a little deeper into the experience, and the pièce de résistance reveals itself: massive glass doors and windows that frame views of a sparkling pool and snapshots of the Mediterranean. And, inside and everywhere you look, a whitewashed palette alive with brilliant jewel tones – a home both true to Marbella tradition and resplendent with colour, at once expansively elegant and joyfully quirky.

Here, every newly refurbished space serves a need: Two formal living rooms, divided by a modern fireplace, each promising a different design experience. A TV room, for cosy moments and epic movie nights. A domino-effect of dining spaces, blurring the line between indoors and out. And 5 spacious bedrooms, each ensuite, for quiet reflection and ample privacy.

Villa La Galeria is ostensibly proper, and yet endearingly eccentric. It is warmth, it is tradition. It is personality, it is creativity. It is an island of charm, amidst a sea of tradition. Villa La Galeria is the modern, artistic Marbella experience.

backed by Sierra Blanca mountains and overlooking the azure Mediterranean – a respite of indoor/outdoor living and a celebration of the serene Marbella lifestyle.

Five minutes from the coast, Villa La Galeria – located in one of Marbella’s oldest urbanisations, the Marbella Hill Club – is a newly redesigned oasis of tranquillity and privacy.

Villa La Galeria is a traditional Andalusian home: a grand villa of clean lines and soft curves, terracotta roof tiles and mature gardens. And yet, Villa La Galeria is also joyfully modern, with a shimmering pool and sleek outdoor furnishings, a top-of-the-range barbecue and sun-splashed loungers.

This is not about flash or pageantry. It’s about style, space, location and, always, the view. Because, when you arrive at Villa La Galeria, you know this is why you’re here: Sun-drenched gardens that unfold over a private pool, diverse relaxation areas, and a terraced half-hectare of groomed gardens and decades-old trees.

And then, just a glance down the mountain, those magnificent views to the Mediterranean. To a shining sea, beckoning but not demanding. Reminding you of why you’re here. But take your time, relax, there’s no rush. The Mediterranean is patient. You have time to take a dip in the pool or a stroll in the garden, to nap in a sunbed or sip a cocktail by sunset.

While you’re here, there’s always plenty of time.

The living room takes up the centre of the house; a modern designer fireplace divides the room into distinct areas – one, a pop of red and the other, more subdued in grey – each with access to the outdoor lounge, gardens, and swimming pool. Both sitting areas are furnished in a contemporary style, mixed with some distinguished original pieces.

Separate to the dual living rooms, a large TV room offers another space for kids with TV and surround sound system. There is an additional TV area and sofa in a corner of the kitchen.

Outdoor lounge areas – one shaded, just off the formal living room and the other, a tiled living area beneath a decades-old tree – offer further seating.

The indoor formal dining room is located on the ground floor, off the living room and adjacent to the kitchen, and offers comfortable seating for 8+. Full glass doors open up fully, to deliver an indoor-outdoor dining experience in summer.

The indoor lounge area opens onto the covered terrace and outdoor dining room next to the pool.

The contemporary white kitchen has a large island with breakfast bar and 3 stools. The bright and airy kitchen is a joy for hobbyist and professional chefs, offering sleek design, a gas 5-ring cooker and double-range oven, Siemans American-style fridge/freezer, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, and other amenities.

A utility room off the kitchen as an additional fridge and freezer, wine fridge, ice machine, washing machine and dryer.

The main living terrace opens onto magnificent sea and La Concha mountain views, as well as an expansive garden which actually occupies two whole plots offering more space than most villas in the neighborhood!

The garden is home to the 12m x 5m swimming pool, sunbeds, and a summer lounge area with gas “Tucson” barbecue.

A large staircase leads down into the lower-level garden, populated with decades-old trees and an enormous sand pit for the kids!

There are three separate sitting, dining, and relaxation areas in the gardens – some shaded and each with its own distinct feel and purpose, so you can equally seek rest, celebration, or privacy.

Indoors, a family TV room offers UK TV service, Apple TV with Netflix, and an LG surround sound entertainment system.

Enjoy the local area

Villa La Galeria is located in Marbella Hill Club, a quiet residential suburb just outside the heart of Marbella. While the beach is technically within walking distance (about 30 minutes to the Golden Mile) “everything” Marbella is a few minutes’ drive away. A car is recommended, but Uber/taxis are readily available for trips around town.

This is one of Marbella’s oldest areas; leafy, luxury suburbs framed by the distinctive ‘La Concha’ mountain. A gentle drive will take you to glamorous beach front of the Marbella Club, and it’s just a couple of minutes drive to the glamorous port of Puerto Banus.

For eating out you are spoiled for choice within a 2km round trip, from Michelin-grade dining at the likes of the Hotel Puente Romano or Melia Don Pepe, to stylish out-of-town hot spots like Finca Besaya.

Along the beach there is a mixture of family run ‘chiringuitos’ serving up the fresh catch of the day, while chic beach bars like the Ocean Club offer gourmet cuisine with a taste of the Mediterranean.

For down time, take a stroll around the boutiques of Marbella’s old town and stop for tapas near Orange Tree square. Or you can easily visit typical white villages further along the coast, like Mijas and Benahavis, or smaller harbours like Capo Pino and the original fishing village of La Cala for a really Spanish vibe.

Situated in on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, Marbella is a resort known widely for it’s glitz and glamour, but for those to choose to explore the area you will find plenty of Spanish charm, culture and character. The resort is renowned for its sunny climate that puts the ‘Sol’ in Costa del Sol, and here we have mile upon mile of beaches, white villages, bustling shops and breath taking scenery, making it an ideal holiday destination for families and groups of friends alike.

In Marbella you will find something for all tastes, from world-class cuisine to characterful tapas bars, from local produce to designer labels, and from beach to breathtaking mountain walks
