ZEN Penthouse: 3 pools - walk to beach- Sea Views- Tropical garden- Up to 8 pax

Fabulous duplex-penthouse with breathtaking views of the majestic Alboran Sea, with nice fireplace.
Enjoy the sunshine in the sunny terrace, or in the private solarium or at one of the three large pools!!
Walking down to the beach(800 m.), in a nice complex built in Andalusian style, with 10.000 sq of tropical gardens and own lounge bar. Located in the heart of Costa del Sol, in an extremely characteristic, quite and lively area within short walk distance to all services!

The complex comprises lovely apartments designed in a traditional Mediterranean style with marble floors and a magical touch of Mediterranean inspiration. Just beautiful. There are three large pools (with salt water and sweet water) in the complex sorrounded by palm trees, tropical flowers and exotic birds species. One of the pools (central)has also little baby pool(opened from May of 2024).
Only the residents can access to this 10.000 square meters of private gardens, so having a lovely walk through this huge green area is a treat for the senses.

You will immediately sense its special intimate atmosphere that makes you feel like being in your own Andalusian home. Each detail has been passionately chosen.

At the spacious living room there is a charming sofa, which can convert into a comfortable double bed (140x200) in a few steps, and a modern table with their chairs. Also there is a HD TV 40” inch brand new, perfect to watch your favorite shows (international channels).
For all over the house there is a very high speed internet connection (600 Mbps) and 200 international channels due to the fiber optic installation. The WiFi is fast, totally free and without limits. You can access to internet in any device: tablet, smartphone, notebook...

There is a fireplace so your winter nights are even warmer and also we have an air conditioning in all bedrooms for a fresh atmosphere in the summer.

The main bedroom has a comfy XXL king size bed (160x200), a large wardrobe. Has its own private bathroom with a big mirror and a relaxing rain shower . All the bed linens, towels, beach towels, etc are provided.

From the living room or the main bedroom you can access to the private terrace where there are a outdoor furniture (dining table with chairs) . With the sun on your head, the sea as background and the sound of the birds this is the perfect place to lay back with a cool drink and enjoy your holiday.

The kitchen is equipped with all appliances: oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster, kettle, etc... Also we provide all the utensils you may need during your stay: dishes, cutlery, glasses, coffee cups, tea pot, pots and pans, stainless steel and so on. Also in the apartment you will find a useful iron and and an ironing board.

At the main floor there is another bathroom fully equipped and with a shower so everybody has their own privacy and space.

On the second floor, which is accessed through a spiral staircase from the outside terrace, you will find the second bedroom. This cozy room has capacity for 4 people: there are two single beds (90x200) and a double bed (140x200). It has a large closet and a desk with a chair. Please note that the bathrooms are on the main floor (there are NO bathrooms on this second floor).

On the second floor is also our favorite part of the house: the solarium. With high quality artificial grass, spectacular views of the sea and comfortable loungers, you will find the perfect environment to relax while you enjoy the sun and have a refreshing drink.

The complex has three large swimming pools surrounded with 10.000 square meters of private tropical gardens where to have a relaxing walk through the palm trees while you hear the birds and the water sound.

God beliggenhet
Leiligheten har god beliggenhet, men takterrassen gir ikke mye sol på senhøsten, vinter eller vår. Mye utstyr, alt man trenger til en god ferie. Noe mer slitt enn det bildene viser. Fellesområdene er fine, bl.a. bassengområde med egen liten bar/kafé.

Very relaxing stay
We had a lovely stay at this apartment which was very clean and well equipped. We particularly enjoyed the outside spaces, where you could sit in the sun all day long. The pools were very quiet (first week in September) and quite often we were the only ones in them. It was nice to have an onsite bar for snacks and refreshments. There is a very well stocked supermarket just a couple of minutes walk away, along with a range of restaurants if you don't want to venture too far. Marbella is very easy to reach (20mins by bus). Malaga took longer (by bus and train, approx 1 hr 45mins) but it was nice to explore the area using public transport, which is very cheap. The hosts communicated very well, both before and during our visit and very helpfully arranged for us to be collected from the airport and taken back for our return flight.

Apartment Shabby; mould in shower cubicles, even young children refused to use them. One shower (close to front door ) flooded when used. Towels & bedding were old & tatty. Sun canopy on balcony was in very poor state. Overall very disappointing for the amount paid.

Great family stay
We just left this stunning place - an incredible apartment, beautifully decorated with gorgeous views of the ocean! We would come back in a heartbeat! The perfect relaxing week in a private complex! Very quiet and beautiful surroundings - the pools are amazing and one includes its own pool bar offering the most amazing cocktails and bites to eat (including ice cream for the children). And with the beach only being a 15-minute walk away, this place has everything you need! If you’re wondering whether to book this place, do it! You won’t regret it - especially as Olga is so great and accommodating - we arrived late in the evening, and she came out to greet us and show us everything! Thank you, Olga x

Bra läge och trevligt bemötande!
Vi önskar vi hade kunnat stanna längre i lägenheten. Fantastisk havsutsikt, tyst och lugnt, sköna sängar och allt som man behöver fanns i lägenheten. Vi uppskattade att det fanns salt och peppar, kaffe och mycket annat som man behöver i sitt semesterboende. Poolområdena är välskötta och det fanns alltid solstolar lediga. Vid en av poolerna mat-och dryck servering. Olga svarade alltid jättesnabbt och fixade små saker som saknades i lägenheten. Man klarar sig utan bil eftersom det finns massor med restauranger nära. Om man vill träna så rekommenderar vi Riviera 11 gym, kostar knappt 400 kr för ett veckomedlemskap. De har även padel- och tennisbanor. Tack för en fantastisk vecka!

Skønt sted med rigtig gode udlejere!!
Jeg kan varmt anbefale denne bolig! Vi var 6 piger afsted på ferie, og vi var mere eller mindre i lejligheden under hele opholdet, da den havde alt vi skulle bruge. Lejligheden er smuk, moderne, flot indrettet og manglede ingenting. Terrassen er fuldstændig fantastisk! Godt med sol hele dagen, gode muligheder for solbadning, spisning ved bord, loungeområde. Udsigten er noget af det smukkeste Costa del Sol har. Nolan og Olga gav gode instrukser og tog imod os personligt uden på vejen. Rigtig søde og imødekommende, og forklarede os alt vi havde brug for. Jeg 5/5 stjerner, og jeg ville skynde mig at booke, hvis jeg var jer.

Very relaxing week in a quiet and peaceful complex
My wife and I have just returned from a week at this apartment and overall we had a very relaxing and enjoyable time. First and foremost a big thank you to our hosts Olga and Nolan who could not have been more helpful. We had a couple of small queries prior to our visit which Olga replied to immediately. We also had the pleasure of being transported to and from the airport by Nolan and all we can say is what a lovely guy and it was a pleasure to meet him. Great service and thank you both so much. As others have already commented the apartment provides you everything you need for a comfortable stay and we were especially impressed by the choice of TV channels (…sad though that may sound) together with the very good wi-fi reception. The only slight negative would be that we felt the apartment is probably in need of some TLC, especially with regard to the shower unit in the main en-suite bathroom, but this did not detract from us having enjoyed our visit. The complex is very peaceful; the gardens are well maintained and the main pool is very good indeed. The only downside was that there are no sunbeds around the main pool areas and, more importantly, there is very little shade which is a shame. We would echo previous comments regarding the accessibility for anyone with mobility issues both in terms of access to the apartment itself but also from the point of view that it is a steep climb back up the hill from the seafront. Otherwise - all good and a nice week in the sun.

What a beautiful oasis!
I took my three children and I to zenplaces's penthouse in June. The apartment is lovely and has a beautiful pool area with stunning gardens and a sea view. It is equipped with everything you need with comfortable beds and a great terrace. The apartment is a 2 minute walk to the supermarket and a 12 minute walk to the beach. We were able to park our car free of charge outside the apartment which was a great bonus also. Riviera is a 10 minute drive to Marbella and just under 30 minutes to Malaga airport. Nolan was very welcoming and helpful and was always available on what’s app if we had any queries. We can highly recommend and will most definitely return. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great family stay
Just returned from a family holiday with our three children. The apartment is lovely, clean and exactly as described and pictured. The complex is very nice and was perfect for us. It has several swimming pools. We personally loved the central pool (closest to the apartment). It was very comfortable and the poolside bar and restaurant is excellent for both food and drinks. Olga is a fabulous host. Extremely friendly and polite and gave us lots of recommendations for beaches and restaurants nearby. We have not hired any car because connections to nearby cities (Malaga, Fuengirola, Marbella) were very easy by bus or Uber. We really enjoyed our stay! Thanks for everything Ross, John, Daisy, Mina and Lesley.

Amazing place and hosts
My friends and I are in our early twenties, and we visited the house for a week because we had to attend our friend's wedding in mijas. There were six of us in the place and we loved every second of it! The hosts were available all the time to answer questions and help us with booking things such a taxis and transfers from the airport before we even got to the house. The hosts were waiting for us when we arrived and were so helpful telling us what was around. The location was perfect for us: in a quiet area but close to everything. You can walk to a range of bars and restaurants, breakfast/lunch around the corner. There was a supermarket only a 5-minute walk away which had everything we needed and was nice and close that we could walk everything back to the house! The house was perfect for all of us, the pool and outside area was clean and beautiful. The paella was delicious in the restaurant next to the pool. We have also really enjoyed the variety of cocktails!:) We had an incredible time and felt that the host was extremely helpful and was always available via message if we had a question. As a group of young females, we felt so safe in the local area and so peaceful!

But gentleman who checked us in and solved our water problem with the contractor was terrific. They only gave us 1/2 of a roll of toilet paper for each of the two bathrooms for a three nights stay. That was kind of dumb overall it was a beautiful place and very reasonably priced for the location.

Beds were very comfortable, the house is spacious and very well equipped, making our stay of five a wonderful experience. The gated complex is great, feels more like a hotel than apartments.

A wonderful family stay
We were in this beautiful house last November and we have returned for the second time. The truth is that the house has once again exceeded our expectations. We have noticed that Olga has renovated the second bathroom, removing a bathtub and installing a modern and comfortable shower cabin. We loved the Arabic-style floor—very Andalusian!! Likewise, we also liked the new huge fridge in the kitchen. Thanks for the cold beers, Olga! The accommodation is large and spotlessly clean and has everything that you could possibly need. The complex has an excellent little restaurant which is super value for money. The food is great and the portions are huge! The complex is immaculate everywhere and is set in a nice up market area. We also enjoyed visiting the marina and the coast. Don't miss out on Ronda or Mijas which are wonderful whitewashed towns. Please don't hesitate to book zen places's house. The location is perfect, and the thought put into it means that you can easily cook full meals at home if you wish to and relax with comfort. Olga is a really super host. I forgot a bag, and she was extremely helpful in locating it and keeping it safe to be collected. P.S. We have already booked again for this November. See you soon, Olga!

Too small for a group
Unfortunately, we did not have the best stay, but to be fair this was in large fact because of bad weather. The inside living space is small and really only good for 2 people if staying more than a couple nights. We booked just for my wife and I but found out friends would be in the area and invited them to stay with us for 2 nights. (As the unit is advertised as up to 8) To add them to the booking they asked for $20eu per person per night even though booking for 2 or 4 has the same rate. This left a bad taste. We needed up checking out early and booking another place because the second bedroom is beside the upper terrace and has to be accessed for outside and the bathroom is on the main level. With rain in the forecast our entire stay and the tight spiral staircase we opted to get a place with larger indoor space. Nolan was great at check in, and if the weather was better we could have made it work.

This is the second year we have stayed at Olga's zen penthouse, and we just as happy this year as last. Olga is a great host and makes booking very easy and make you feel very welcome. The caretaker Nolan is there to meet you on your arrival, even though our plane was delayed and we never arrived until late.
