La Bambola

Situated in the famous La Zagaleta Golf & Country Club, a premier residential and golfing enclave in Europe, this luxurious mansion faces southwest. Tucked away in the picturesque foothills of Benahavís, just a short distance from the sun-soaked beaches of the Costa del Sol and a brief drive from Marbella, La Zagaleta stands as the epitome of opulence with some of the most lavish residences not only in Spain but across Europe.

Villa La Bambola is a visual delight, seamlessly merging contemporary architecture with Balinese influences, including roof finials, an artful arrangement of indoor and outdoor spaces, water features, and lattice-covered terraces adorned with ceiling fans. Crafted to perfection by esteemed architects and artisans, the villa sets new standards for breathtaking elegance. Nestled on a private elevated plot spanning 4,366 m2 amid meticulously landscaped ornamental gardens, it offers breathtaking views of the Golf Valley and the Serranía de Ronda mountains.

Spanning three floors, Villa La Bambola is a sanctuary of space, style, and sophistication. Boasting six spacious ensuite bathrooms, two kitchens, numerous living and dining areas, a vast basement featuring spa and entertainment facilities, shaded terraces, and impeccable grounds hosting an infinity pool with a bar, this luxury abode caters to every need and desire.

The formal sitting room exudes refined grandeur, featuring a dark wood vaulted ceiling, an open fireplace, and contemporary interior design. Elegant sliding doors lead to the splendid polygonal dining room with a cathedral ceiling, polished marble floor motifs, and innovative room shapes complemented by a round dining table and recessed wall niches. Additionally, the level houses a second casual sitting room, an office, and a fully equipped modern kitchen leading to an informal dining room. French doors in all these rooms open to a spacious terrace running the length of the property, offering comfortable seating, including hanging sofas and hammocks, where one can enjoy the views while listening to the gentle trickling of water from the fountain.

The ground floor hosts one of the two master suites and another ensuite bedroom, both with ample proportions, dressing rooms, and terraces. The upper floor comprises three bedrooms, including a master suite with a striking vaulted ceiling, all opening to a terrace with breathtaking mountain views.

The basement is the crown jewel of Villa La Bambola, serving as an expansive indoor “playground” with a large heated indoor pool, sauna and steam rooms, a well-equipped gym, a chic home cinema room, and an entertaining space complete with a pool table, a bar, and semi-circular sofas for lounging while enjoying the jukebox.

Adjacent to the games room is a convenient second kitchen with doors leading to the terrace and garden, providing space to relax on daybeds, soak in the outside jacuzzi, or work up a sweat on the cross trainer. This level also features a staff bedroom with an ensuite bathroom.

Outdoors, the captivating view takes center stage, complemented by a large infinity pool with a swim-up bar, allowing you to indulge in a smoothie or a stronger beverage without leaving the water. The property also features a small pitch and putt golf course. Lastly, a separate glass room on the side of the residence offers an ideal space for year-round dining with panoramic views of the beautiful Andalusian landscape.

This remarkable contemporary villa exudes timeless elegance and is meticulously designed for comfort and relaxation. Every conceivable wish has been anticipated in this stunning residence, where a private location, top-tier facilities, and sophisticated interior design converge to create a holiday home that leaves an indelible impression
