Casa Tobogan Spain

Located in the prestigious and exclusive La Zagaleta Country Club, in the hills of Benahavis, sits this majestic 12-bedroom villa. Considered one of the most beautiful areas of the Costa del Sol, Casa Tobogan is a gem of a place.
Beautifully appointed and set out over four floors, a sense of grandeur sweeps through the property. On the second lower ground floor you’ll find three bedrooms each with their own bathroom plus a kitchenette and bar while on the lower ground floor there are a number of rooms dedicated to entertainment. Choose between racking up balls in the snooker room, swimming laps in the indoor pool, relaxing with a film in the cinema room, or working up a sweat in the gym and then unwinding in the hammam. You’ll also find an independent apartment on this floor featuring two bedrooms and bathrooms for extra guests or staff.
On the ground floor move between the sumptuous living room with its high-quality furnishings to the grand dining room featuring mahogany furniture. For less lavish meals the well-equipped kitchen with large breakfast table is an inviting spot. Should you need to catch up on work there’s also a spacious office and library room featuring a beautiful marquetry floor. You’ll find two, light-filled bedrooms on this floor both with en suite bathrooms and access to a glorious terrace.
From the ground floor, an impressive staircase featuring a glass chandelier and fountain sweeps to the first floor and three further bedrooms. The bedrooms are large and comfortable with sleek and shiny en suite bathrooms and balconies that invite you to step outside and soak up the far-reaching mountains views.
While five-star comfort rules inside, outside is equally spectacular with its cheerful bronzed statuettes, fountains and manicured gardens. Everything you desire is here from dazzling pool and gazebo, to play areas for the children and shady terraces for alfresco dining. Relax on a sunbed, plunge into the swimming pool or simply feel your spirits lift as you drink in the countryside views. The rooftop terrace with its own heated pool, Jacuzzi and barbeque is an extra bonus, and a charming spot to watch the sunset over the Mediterranean waters.
Casa Tobogan offers exceptional living in a classy, affluent neighbourhood where opulence is the order of the day. There are two golf courses to enjoy within the gated grounds plus an equestrian centre while Marbella town centre with its trendy restaurants, bars and nightclubs is only a 10-minute drive away. Casa Tobogan sits within the La Zagaleta Country Club, an exclusive club offering exceptional living. With nearly 900 hectares of gated natural surroundings, it’s a unique, private and secure place to live on the Costa del Sol.
The natural woodland forms part of a reserve with carpets of flowers, lakes and wildlife adding to the tranquillity. There are a number of hiking trails for guests who want to explore the area on foot while an equestrian centre allows riders to spot the resident deer, rabbits and birdlife on horseback. If you’re after more activity, there are two pristine 18-hole golf courses reserved exclusively for residents, plus tennis courts, a bowling alley and a billiard room in the clubhouse. The clubhouse is also lively at night with summer and winter restaurants, a discotheque and bar. If you can tear yourself away from all this luxury, Marbella is just a 10-minute drive away.
Marbella dates back to Roman times and history-lovers will enjoy the archaeological remains that are still evident, including mosaic tiles and Roman villa ruins. But most visitors to Marbella come for its glitz and glamour. In the town you’ll find plenty of Michelin-starred restaurants, designer boutiques, golden sandy beaches and a marina full of super yachts. For a more authentic Andalusian experience take a stroll through the old town. Set back from the seafront it’s a charming spot with its whitewashed buildings, flower-covered balconies and cobbled streets. In the Plaza de los Naranjos, or Orange Square, you can admire the Moorish and baroque architecture that bears witness to the presence of both Arabs and Christians in the fifteenth and sixteenth century. While here, be sure to stop at the Museum for Contemporary Spanish Engravings and marvel at the works of Miro, Dali and Picasso.
While Marbella offers plenty to do and see, the town of Porto Banus is 15-minutes from the casa and offers plenty of night time distractions with popular nightclubs, piano bars, beach parties and a casino.
Away from the splendour of Marbella’s coastline, lies the pretty village of Benahavis. Just a short drive from the casa it’s known as the dining room of the Costa del Sol and is brimming with Spanish restaurants, bars and local hospitality. It’s the perfect place to spend a few hours lingering over a meal while watching the sun drop behind the Serrania de Ronda Mountains.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
