The house

The main house has six en-suite bedrooms. Two independent guesthouses, each with its own entrance, add two en-suite bedrooms apiece, so three families or a group of friends can share the estate without living on top of each other. The house measures 2,000 m² and sits in 4,000 m² of walled tropical gardens.

Inside there is a dining room that seats sixteen, a cinema room, a wine cellar, a piano and a Sonos and Bang & Olufsen sound system throughout.

Two pools and a private spa

La Danza pool carries the sketch Picasso drew in 1961 for the flamenco dancer Antonio el Bailarín, who built the house. It is the only submerged Picasso anywhere. Read the story of the house.

The wellness area is yours alone: an indoor heated pool, a sauna, a gym and a massage area. Outside, a lounge with an open bar and a cinema screen, several terraces, and a paddle board for the bay.

Looked after every day

Housekeeping comes every day from 07:00 to 15:00 and is included. A member of our team meets you at the gates, shows you the house and stays reachable throughout your stay. With notice we arrange a private chef, a butler, a bartender, drivers, airport transfers and valet parking.
