Villa Verdi is the perfect marriage of old and new – on the outside you have the charm of old Spain, while the inside reveals the luxury of the new Costa del Sol.
You’ll feel it before you even arrive, as you drive up into the mountains and through rolling greenery, winding higher and ever further from everyday life and its everyday worries. It’s evident as you pull into the entrance, as you drive up to a very traditional, very classical Spanish villa, where an ancient olive tree welcomes you. And then, modernity hits you as you step inside – into a double-height entry and sleek marble flooring, into modern furnishings and oh, those panoramic glass windows!
Floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall, glass wraps around the Villa Verdi, pulling the outdoors in at every opportunity. These views stand as centrepiece to the home, and these walls are the true definition of seamless indoor-outdoor living, inviting to you to enjoy the great outdoors, no matter the season. In summer, throw open the glass walls and invite in the cool breeze and green vistas. In winter, keep the glass closed and enjoy panoramic mountain and valley views from the comfort of underfloor heating, plush seating, and cosy blankets.
Both sleek and contemporary, at once stylish and homey, Villa Verdi could easily be at home in the most modern and cosmopolitan cities. And yet, this Andaluz-style villa and its scenic locale are far from the frenetic pace of urban living: Secreted into its own verdant valley, surrounded by rich greenery and rolling mountains, Villa Verdi is a retreat that invites you to disconnect, relax and luxuriate in southern Spain’s most pastoral surrounds.
And relax, you shall. Whether you’re sunbathing beneath the palms, or taking a dip in the infinity-edge pool, or soothing your muscles in the outdoor hot tub, or relaxing in the indoor sauna, Villa Verdi encourages you to slow down. To plan a movie night in the cinema room, or while away an evening by the living room’s open fire. To barbecue out and spend an evening under the stars. (Don’t worry, the heat lamps will keep you warm.)
The décor is highly luxurious yet modern, with designer touches throughout: A sculpture light fitting that imitates melted candles. Statement “wow” piece, such as the oversized pearl planter, replete with orchids, that adorns the entrance hall. And then, there are the quirky touches that welcome you to a well-loved home, like the bedrooms’ artwork, which brings a touch of London to southern Spain.
Your rental includes a complete clean and linen change once a week plus additional light housekeeping in 1 or 2 visits during the week. Additional housekeeping hours can be booked and paid for in advance to cover things like after-dinner clearing up or personal laundry, and we can also source live-in maids if required.
