Celebrating its 60th anniversary as a premier lifestyle destination
Once upon a time, in the sun-kissed landscape of the Costa del Sol, there lay a hidden gem known as Village Verde, cradled within the embrace of the exclusive Sotogrande community. This tranquil haven, a stone's throw from the vibrant cities of Marbella and Gibraltar, was a sanctuary for those seeking a serene retreat from the world's hustle and bustle.
At the heart of Sotogrande's charm was its majestic marina, a nautical paradise that earned the affectionate moniker 'little Venice of the Mediterranean'. Here, amidst the whispering canals lined with whispering trees and the quaint bridges arching over gentle waters, the sailing community found its pulse. The marina, a bustling hub by day, transformed into a picturesque tableau by night, with the soft glow of lanterns reflecting off the water and the laughter of diners spilling out from the waterfront restaurants.
For over half a century, Sotogrande had stood as a bastion of natural beauty and exclusivity. Its lush greenery and protected surroundings offered the discerning few a retreat like no other, a slice of paradise on the sun-drenched shores of the Costa del Sol.
Golf enthusiasts from around the world were drawn to the legendary fairways of Sotogrande. The hallowed greens of Valderrama, a sanctuary of golf and the crown jewel of Europe's courses, beckoned. Alongside it, the masterpieces of renowned architects like Cabell B. Robinson and Robert Trent Jones wove through the landscape, offering challenges and delights in equal measure.
As synonymous with Sotogrande as the sun is with the sky, polo thrived in the esteemed Santa Maria Polo Club. Here, the thundering of hooves and the crack of mallets against polo balls had echoed every summer since 1965, a testament to the timeless allure of the sport of kings.
Yet, amidst this tapestry of old-world charm and natural splendor, a new vision was taking shape. Village Verde, a modern-day Eden, was redefining village living for the 21st Century. Here, contemporary homes with avant-garde facilities were being woven into the fabric of the community, creating a tapestry of life unlike any other.
Nestled within six hectares of verdant parkland, 121 apartments stood as modern-day sanctuaries, offering residents a unique blend of communal spaces and state-of-the-art amenities. This was more than a place to live; it was a place to belong, a community where every moment was an invitation to connect with nature, to unwind, and to spend precious time with loved ones.
And so, as the story of Village Verde unfolded, it beckoned to those in search of the ultimate lifestyle in southern Spain.
A place where luxury met convenience, where community blended with nature, and where every day was an opportunity to live life to its fullest.
