The Loveliest Villas in Málaga, Spain

Bed & bath: 10 bedrooms, 11 baths
Top amenities: Beach access, landscaped gardens, private spa

One peek through the door at Villa Lagunas and you’ll see that a stay here rivals that at any of Málaga’s best hotels. It’s palatial, with 10 king-size bedrooms, sprawling landscaped gardens, a huge kitchen with peachy marble counters, a home theater, two saunas, a Turkish bath, massage rooms, a home gym, and a Roman spa. Every room has a hot tub, and you can start your day with a brisk swim against the tide in the wave pool. We could go on. Floor-to-ceiling windows, an incredible winding staircase, candy twist marble columns, a mix of classical and modern furniture pieces, and a well-stocked home bar are just a few of the features awaiting exploration in this home. Nonetheless, should you wish to head out, the beach is just a short walk away, and the A7 road is close by, ready to whisk you away into Andalusia’s characteristic vineyards and picturesque sleepy villages.
