CONCIERGE SERVICES

Your reservation with The Luxury Villa Collection includes the personal attention of our expert Concierge Manager, free of charge. This includes a pre-departure itinerary planning service so all your travel arrangements can be taken care of in advance, then she will meet you on arrival to show you around the property with the villa manager, and is on the end of a telephone for anything you need during your stay.

Our Concierge team are also on hand during your stay for a more hands-on approach, and their personal hours can be paid for locally at the end of your stay. We can cover all manner of things from restaurant reservations, shopping errands, personal assistance at the shops, as well as arranging children’s nannies, golf, excursions, chefs and so on. Please do ask for anything you need and we will do our best to assist.

A TASTE OF SPAIN

Our complimentary hamper is our way of welcoming you to Spain. We have chosen a taster selection of local produce, so you can get straight into the holiday vibe. Your maid can prepare a seasonal lunchtime menu for you and your guests, or we can arrange a professional private chef for more formal occasions. If you would like us to pre-stock the bodega with a choice selection of regional and Spanish wine, please do ask us for details.

To complement your meals, why not book an extra special evening with our wine or olive oil-tasting experience, or have us organise a private ‘maridaje’ of food and wine pairing to experience the best of local Andalucian cuisine.

GETTING AROUND

To help you get the very best from your stay at this villa, our Concierge is happy to assist with transfers, car hire, chauffeurs or shuttles during your stay.

The main living area has a real sense of grandeur, thanks to its cathedral-like, vaulted ceiling, Bechstein piano, master works of art and superb décor. Rose-coloured chairs surround an enormous stone fireplace. A secondary living space – the ‘snug’ – is the cosy heart of the home, with soft leather chairs, a second stone fireplace, a large flatscreen TV and surround sound system.

Finally, the heads of the house can also enjoy their own private living quarters within the master suite, which occupies one whole wing of the villa’s first floor.

Villa Las Artes offers as many dining options as it does bedrooms. Overlooking the Mediterranean, the formal winter dining room is an impressive space decorated in a palette of chocolate and cream, with an antique table, impressive hearth and Andalucian candelabra.

A single peep-through fireplace separates the contemporary, fully decked out kitchen from the villa’s casual dining space, the perfect spot for a lazy brunch over the Sunday supplements.

The outdoor, 15-metre saltwater infinity pool offers an uninterrupted view of the Mediterranean Sea, while the indoor pool was also cleverly installed on the top floor to take in the magnificent sea views. Sea-grass sunbeds surround the indoor pool, and a large daybed is perfect for lounging with a good book and a cup of tea. The adjacent sun terrace overlooks the beach and palms below.

Downstairs, the basement is entertainment central, decorated with 1940s jazz club art and offering a large slate-bed snooker table, cinema lounge, and climate-controlled bodega with bar. Windows reveal Roman water features from the pool just above.

The home spa offers a gym, treatment room, sauna, and Turkish bath, adjacent to the indoor pool with underwater bike and jet stream for a swim workout.

An outdoor lounge space is perfect for warm or cool weather, courtesy of an outdoor fireplace that keeps things toast on chilly spring or autumn evenings.
