Villa Mariposa is located at the end of a quiet, well lit cul de sac. Just a 7 minute stroll to the sea where you will find the well known Max Beach overlooking Riviera Playa.

The Villa is ideally situated to explore further afield. Marbella is just a 15 minute drive away with Puerto Banus just 5 minutes further down. Fuengirola is only 12 minutes up the coast road with Malaga airport just an extra 14 minutes away.

Riviera del Sol caters for the everyday necessities with-in a five-minute walk. Along the palm tree-lined Avenida del Golf you will find two supermarkets (Mas and Supercor), a pharmacy, hairdressers, many restaurants, four bars, three cash machines and car rental.

YOUR ARRIVAL
Turning the corner onto Calle Jupiter will immediately reveal the impressive villa situated at the end of the street. If you have a car or van there is secure on premise parking.

The villa has been recently refurbished and offers five large bedrooms. The decor throughout is clean and modern, while retaining a relaxed, comfortable feel.

GROUND FLOOR (Entrance level)
The villa is south-facing, enjoying the sun all day, with views across the Mediterranean. The villa is entered via the pool terrace, which reveals an outside kitchen, bar and dining area.

There are plenty of sun loungers to laze by the pool and soak up the Sol. Or relax in the shaded veranda on comfy seats or lie in the hammock and enjoy a sundowner.

Walking into the villa, the hall and kitchen beyond is in front of you with the open spaced lounge and dining room to your right.

The inside dining area can accommodate up to 12, with the extension table added, while the outside dining table will accommodate 10 people.

The 65” LG TV is WIFI compatible with AirPlay functionality built-in to stream music and movies through the home cinema system.

The kitchen is equipped with a full-height fridge and freezer, fan oven, ceramic hob, microwave oven, sink and dishwasher. The worktop space offers adequate room to prepare a meal for all guests. The high table can also be used to prepare food and makes a perfect spot for smaller groups to congregate.

Open the back door and you will find the 10.5kg load washing machine.

The large terraced areas offer an 8m x 4m white tiled pool with ten sun loungers, comfy seating in the shade and of course the large outside dining terrace protected from the sun with a vented gazebo offering views over the med. Everything you need to enjoy a fabulous memorable stay.

Back inside, to the left is the staircase leading you to three bedrooms upstairs and two bedrooms downstairs. One of which is an extremely spacious family room.

TOP FLOOR
The first room you come to is the master bedroom suite with a super king-size bed from where you can lay and enjoy sea views. Or maybe step out onto the balcony with a cup of freshly brewed coffee and watch the boats sail by. The en suite offers two sinks with a bath/shower, bidet and toilet.

The two guest bedrooms situated at the rear are roomy and have plenty of wardrobe space. They both share a bathroom with a shower over the bath.

GARDEN FLOOR
All bedrooms in the villa can be configured either as a super king or large twin, but the large family garden bedroom offers a super king-sized bed and a twin to make a great family room, with access to private terrace and path to the pool. Both bedrooms share a shower room.

THE GARDEN
The garden features banana palms, agave, shrubs and the ‘hammock tree’ is situated in the lower corner. The perfect place to read a book or sip a cold beer, or both!

The outside kitchen and al fresco area offers a four-burner BBQ, sit-up bar, sink and dining for all guests. But if you don’t fancy cooking, you can call in a take-away or visit a variety of restaurants. Choose from Argentinian, Chinese, Cuban, Indian, Italian, Spanish, Thai and many more.

Whether you’re a large family in search of a destination where both parents and kids will adore or a group of friends looking for a holiday base with easy access to cycle routes, golf courses or beach activities, you’ve found it - right here in Riviera del Sol. Villa Mariposa awaits.

Multi generation getogether
3 generations, aged 11-79. Great property. Lots of space to spread out have fun and relax. Really enjoyed the dining area outside which could seat 12( the table extends) super bbq and outdoor sink/ prep area.Location super as you could walk to beach in 10 mins. Loved Restaurant Antonio in Miraflores had breakfast and seafood lunches there.Cala deMijas for fun and Dona Lola for restaurants which could seat big groups.Sendor Litorel good for jogging and walking. All very easy! Especially for the grandparents who couldn’t walk far. Be aware that the bedrooms are either upstairs or downstairs and folk will have to negotiate stairs. Well equipped and would thoroughly recommend!

Perfect
Me and my family, 8 adults and 3 children, spent a week at this villa. I must say that it was perfect. Everything from the easy check-in, the cleanliness of the villa, large rooms, wonderful pool with plenty of space for sunbeds, tables and barbecue area. The area around the villa was very quiet and we had a fantastic view of the sea. So, I would highly recommend this house, it was Perfect! Lars

Relaxing family holiday
We had a lovely stay with all the family ranging from grandparents to small children. The villa is modern, clean and very well equipped with a comprehensive booklet with all the info you may need. Unfortunately there was quite a lot of building work going on nearby with several hours of heaving drilling most days which made it difficult to relax by the pool at times. We appreciate this was out of the control of our hosts and overall we still had a lovely time.

About the host

Hosted by Peter and Sue

Host profile image
Hi. I'm Peter and I grew up and still live in Jersey, Channel Islands. I'm a Graphic Designer running my own business, Adapt Design and Advertising since 1997. My wife, Sue grew up in Southampton, UK and after our a holiday romance in Portugal in 1999 she moved to Jersey six months later and we have been together ever since .

Sue's dream has always been to own a place in the sun where she could escape the winter months. We searched for five years to find the perfect place and Villa Mariposa is that place. We are now both living the dream and we want to share our beautiful villa with you so you can make some fabulous memories too.

Why they chose this property

We have visited the Costa del Sol many times. I've cycled thousands of kilometres in the region and we have both played almost all of the golf courses in this area. The Riviera del Sol gives us the opportunity to easily pursue our passions for sport, socialising, shopping and relaxing.

What makes this property unique

The villa is situated at the end of a quiet Cul de Sac so passing traffic isn't an issue. The surrounding area feels safe and friendly with plenty of street lights. The view from the outside dining area down to the Med is glorious, and we never tire of the views from the villa, especial from the master bedroom balcony. We can lie in bed and watch the boats sail by. The pool is a great size at 8m x 4m. The next thing to do is to plant some fruit trees so we can squeeze our own organic lemons, limes and oranges.
