Villa Enso: architecture, privacy and spacious living areas in La Zagaleta

Villa Enso is situated in Sector H of La Zagaleta, near the northern entrance to this exclusive private residential development in Benahavís. Situated approximately 15 km from Puerto Banús, 20 km from the centre of Marbella and 70 km from Málaga Airport, it enjoys a natural setting offering a high degree of privacy, with access to two private golf courses, a social club and exclusive amenities for residents. From its spacious plot, the property offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and the North African coast.

The villa stands out for its size, contemporary architecture and spacious layout. Spread over three floors connected by a lift, it features a master suite and nine guest suites, as well as facilities dedicated to wellness, leisure and entertainment. The interiors combine double-height ceilings, large glazed areas and a layout that maximises natural light and connects the interior with the gardens and terraces.

The main floor is organised around a double-height foyer with a designer staircase leading to the living room, dominated by seven-metre-high automated windows that open fully onto the terrace and the swimming pool. The dining room, separated from the living room by a fireplace, opens onto a large kitchen with a U-shaped island and a second service kitchen. This level also features four en-suite bedrooms, arranged in two separate wings, one with a private lounge and the other with a study area. All have direct access to the terraces and the garden.

The upper floor houses the master suite, which features a private lounge with a fireplace, a spacious dressing room and a terrace with sea views. In a separate wing are two further guest suites with terraces, as well as an office area.

The lower floor, opening onto the gardens, houses most of the leisure and wellness facilities. It includes an indoor swimming pool, two hot tubs, a sauna, steam rooms, an ice room, a hairdressing salon and a massage room. It also features a wine cellar with a tasting room, a private cinema seating 15 people, a games room, a bar and a lounge area. On this floor are three further guest suites with terraces, four staff bedrooms and service quarters, as well as a garage with space for 15 vehicles and exhibition spaces for private collections.

Outside, the terraces and gardens are arranged around an infinity pool with a spa area and a relaxation area featuring a fire pit. Next to the pool, a pavilion with a bar, bathroom and leisure area beneath a pergola provides a space for enjoying outdoor gatherings. The property also features an outdoor cinema equipped with a six-metre LCD screen and a hydraulic system that allows the screen to be viewed from different levels.

Villa Enso incorporates a solar energy system designed to meet the property’s energy needs, as well as a comprehensive CCTV surveillance system, complemented by La Zagaleta’s round-the-clock security. Given its scale, layout and facilities, it offers a private residence with spaces suited to both family life and entertaining guests.
