Top 10 Villas in Costa del Sol

Sunshine, sangria and endless stretches of sandy beaches. It’s a no-brainer that luxury villas in Costa del Sol are a go-to for the ultimate summer holiday.

The ‘sunshine coast’ is super popular, and there are tons of beautiful villas to rent and make your base while you explore the beauty of the region. It can be a little overwhelming to decide where to stay… that’s why we’ve done the hard work for you.

The grounds are breathtaking too – lush, green and flower-filled with incredible views down the valley to the sea that are best enjoyed from the gorgeous pool.

Breathe a sigh of relief beneath the pergola area where a spot of yoga will start your day right, or head up the hill within the grounds to the pretty chapel for a moment’s silence and serenity.  Absolute relaxation is the theme at Casa Feliz.
