Villa for sale in Manilva, Málaga

Set within the sought-after enclave of La Paloma, just above La Duquesa, this beautifully laid-out four-bedroom, five-bathroom villa is a home designed for relaxed coastal living, generous family space and effortless entertaining.

Elegant, peaceful, private and impeccably arranged, it offers sea views down the southern Spanish coastline and a lifestyle that balances comfort with quality.

The villa is arranged across three levels, each thoughtfully planned to give space, privacy and flexibility. The top floor is dedicated entirely to an exceptional master suite, creating a true retreat within the home. This level features an emperor-sized bed, a spacious walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious bathroom complete with walk-in shower and jacuzzi bath. From the master suite, doors open onto a private terrace, an ideal spot to enjoy morning coffee or evening sunsets with open coastal views.

The main living level forms the heart of the home. Here, a bright and welcoming lounge opens out towards the garden and pool area, creating a natural flow between indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is generously sized and exceptionally well equipped. A large wooden dining table comfortably seats eight, perfect for family meals or entertaining guests. This floor also includes a well-proportioned bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom, along with a separate guest toilet, ideal for everyday convenience.

The lower level of the villa is designed as a self-contained living space in its own right. Two further bedrooms are located here, both with en-suite bathrooms and walk-in showers, offering excellent privacy for family members or guests. A second lounge provides a relaxed, informal setting, complete with a smart TV and large, comfortable seating, making it an ideal space for teenagers, visitors or quieter evenings. This level also features a sauna, adding a wellness element that enhances the home’s appeal as both a permanent residence and a luxury retreat.

Outside, the villa continues to impress. The private pool measures 8 by 4 metres, with steps into the shallow end and a deeper section reaching two metres, suitable for both relaxed dips and proper swimming. Surrounding the pool are six sun loungers, a large parasol and several seating areas designed to suit different moments of the day. One covered terrace features a generous U-shaped sofa with seating for eight to ten people and enjoys beautiful views. Additional outdoor dining areas to the side and rear of the villa provide shaded options for lunches and evening meals, while the garden offers space for children to play, including a netted trampoline.

The property has been designed with modern living in mind. There are multiple work-from-home spaces, including a large desk in the lower lounge, a desk in the double bedroom and an additional workspace between bedrooms.

Parking is available both within the gated plot and on the quiet street outside, adding to the practicality of the property. Its location places you close to long sandy beaches, charming old towns and excellent road connections, with Malaga airport around an hour away and both Marbella and Gibraltar within easy reach.

This is a villa that truly works, offering space where you need it, privacy where it matters and a layout that adapts beautifully to family life, guests or rental use. This property has a rental licence and a good history of rentals.
