About Villa La Gratitud
Villa La Gratitud is an Andalusian estate on Marbella’s Golden Mile with 11 suites, a private spa, cinema, bowling alley and expansive gardens – a home created for unhurried mornings, shared meals and meaningful time together.
Why "Gratitud"?
Gratitud is our operating principle. It guides material choices, light, acoustics, room flow and rituals of hospitality. The result is a calm, human-scale home: generous where it matters, discreet where it counts.
Timeline & Ethos
Origins
It began as a classic Golden Mile villa framed by Sierra Blanca and the Mediterranean.
Transformation
A meticulous redesign refined the architecture, expanded terraces and introduced bespoke interiors—harmonising indoor and outdoor life.
Today
The villa is a private estate dedicated to restoration and gathering, where comfort, craft and discretion meet.
Values that shape the house
Authenticity
Every element serves form and function: honest materials, enduring finishes, and rooms composed to age beautifully.
Well-being
Spaces breathe—garden views, cross-ventilation, tactile textiles and wellness facilities designed for real recovery.
Craft
A curated mix of stone, timber, linen and metal, with made-to-measure pieces that elevate daily rituals.
Discretion
True privacy within minutes of Marbella’s finest dining, beach clubs and culture.
Design & architecture
The design philosophy of Villa Gratitud is anchored in a deep respect for light, texture, and proportion, orchestrated to create a quiet, timeless mood.
Light, texture, proportion
Large openings connect salons to porches and gardens. The palette—natural stone, warm timber, hand-finished metal—creates a quiet, timeless mood. Acoustics and lighting are tuned for conversation, cinema and rest.
Bespoke interiors
Rooms are composed, not decorated. Built-ins hide devices; storage flows with circulation; seating depth, table height and countertop ergonomics are calibrated for comfort. Beauty never compromises use.
Location
Set between Puente Romano and Puerto Banús, the villa sits at the quiet heart of the Golden Mile: quick access to beaches, golf and dining, with the tranquillity of a residential enclave. The house feels secluded, yet nothing essential is far.

The team behind the project
Villa La Gratitud’s latest evolution was guided by the Marbella-based design studio known as LOB Studio, a team renowned for liveable elegance: proportion first, materials with soul, and spaces that feel collected—not staged. The brief was simple: create a home people love to use.
