Europe's most glamorous coast — Zagaleta, the Golden Mile and Puerto Banús
Marbella has been the benchmark for Mediterranean luxury since the 1950s when Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe established the Marbella Club and drew the European aristocracy south. Seventy years later it remains the most consistently demanding luxury market on the Spanish coast, and our collection of 800+ Marbella properties reflects every dimension of that demand. La Zagaleta — the most exclusive gated estate in Europe, 900 hectares of hunting ground converted into a private residential community accessible only to members and their guests — is where our finest Marbella properties sit: mansions of 2,000 square metres with panoramic Mediterranean views, private pools, home cinemas, wine cellars and helipads, sleeping up to twenty guests with a full staff in residence.
The Golden Mile places you between the Marbella Club and Puerto Banús, with the finest beach clubs, Michelin-starred restaurants (Skina, Messina, Dani García) and designer boutiques within walking distance. Sierra Blanca and Los Monteros offer hillside villas with the entire coast laid out below. Benahavís — the most gastronomically celebrated village in southern Spain with more restaurants per capita than anywhere in the country — is fifteen minutes inland through the mountains. Our concierge arranges private golf at Valderrama, day trips to Ronda's clifftop gorge, and private flamenco evenings in Seville — two hours from your villa door.

The White Island — and Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera
Ibiza contains two entirely distinct holiday propositions that most platforms describe as one. The first is the Ibiza of Ushuaïa, Pacha and Hï — the world's most celebrated club circuit, best experienced from a villa in San José or above Talamanca with a concierge who holds the right relationships. The second is the Ibiza of whitewashed fincas in the pine forests of the island's quiet north and east — Sant Joan de Labritja, Santa Eulària, the secluded coves near Cala Xarraca — where the sunsets are the finest in the western Mediterranean and the silence is extraordinary. Our collection covers both. Our concierge understands which you want.
Mallorca is the largest and most varied of the Balearics — the Tramuntana mountain range (UNESCO World Heritage) dropping to dramatic coves in the north, the medieval streets of Palma's old city, the stone estates of Deià and Sóller where Robert Graves lived and where the resident creative community has never fully left. Our Mallorca collection is particularly strong for families — private villas with multiple pools, tennis courts and boat jetties above beaches accessible only from the water. Menorca offers the same turquoise water with half the crowds and a quieter, more authentic Balearic character. Formentera — a 25-minute ferry from Ibiza — has the finest beach water in Spain.

Every great Spanish destination — Zagaleta estates, Ibizan fincas, Mallorcan hilltop retreats, Costa Brava hideaways and Andalucían cortijos.
From the Zagaleta estates of Marbella and the sunset fincas of Ibiza to the stone hilltop retreats of Mallorca's Tramuntana, the rugged coves of the Costa Brava, the whitewashed cortijos of Andalucía and the volcanic drama of the Canary Islands — Spain offers more distinct luxury villa holiday experiences than any other Mediterranean country.

Catalan coves, Dalí country and the world's most dynamic food city
The Costa Brava is the most underrated luxury coast in Spain — and the one most consistently overlooked by platforms that focus exclusively on the Balearics and Marbella. The coastline from Calella de Palafrugell to Cadaqués — where Salvador Dalí built his extraordinary house in Portlligat and where the Cap de Creus headland creates a peninsula of wild rocky coves accessible only by private boat — is among the most beautiful in the Mediterranean. Rent a modernist villa above Begur, where pine forests and the scent of wild herbs run to cliff edges above Aiguablava, and you will understand why Catalan architects have been building their most experimental private houses here since the 1930s.
Barcelona is unique in our collection: a city where the architecture is as extraordinary as any villa, and where a masia (Catalan farmhouse) in the hills above the city gives you Gaudí's Sagrada Família, the Boqueria market and the restaurants of the Eixample within thirty minutes, while returning each evening to a private pool in the foothills of the Collserola. Our concierge arranges private evening tours of Park Güell and Palau de la Música Catalana — concerts and architectural masterpieces that most visitors see only in crowds.

Flamenco, cortijos and volcanic Atlantic drama — year-round
Andalucía is the soul of Spain and the most culturally distinctive villa holiday destination in the country. A cortijo — the whitewashed Andalucían farmhouse estate of five to fifty bedrooms set in olive groves and almond orchards — is the defining Spanish rural property, and our Andalucían collection includes estates near Ronda (the most dramatically situated city in Spain, built on a gorge 120 metres above a river), the wine estates of Jerez, the Moorish city of Granada with the Alhambra visible at dawn from your terrace, and the White Villages of the interior — Arcos, Vejer, Zahara de la Sierra — that have no architectural equal in southern Europe. Tarifa, at the southernmost tip of continental Europe, is Europe's finest kitesurfing destination with Morocco visible across the Strait on a clear morning.
The Canary Islands — Lanzarote's extraordinary volcanic landscape of black lava fields and César Manrique's architecture, Tenerife's Mount Teide (Spain's highest peak), Gran Canaria's sand dunes and year-round warmth, Fuerteventura's Atlantic surf — offer something no other Spanish destination does: genuine winter sun, week after week, in properties with private pools. Our Canary Islands collection is among the fastest-growing in our portfolio, attracting guests who have exhausted the Mediterranean and want somewhere warmer, stranger and less crowded.
