James Bond is the ultimate in cool, suave and sophistication. He wears the best suits from Savile Row, drives the best cars (Aston Martin’s of course), enjoys the finest food and cocktails and lives his life to the maximum. You’ll find Mr Bond staying in some spectacular villas in the films and the baddies are always in the most amazing properties, waiting patiently to say “Mr Bond – we’ve been expecting you!”.
Remember the amazing seafront villa in Thunderball with its famous shark tank? Or how about the concrete and glass sci-fi villa which was Willard Whyte's retreat in Diamonds Are Forever?
If you’d like to follow in the footsteps of the famous spy or his evil nemeses, then you need to spend your next vacation somewhere spectacular. We have just the place – Villa Sirius in Marbella.
Villa Sirius, villa or a film set?
The striking entrance really looks like something out of a set. Its huge and imposing geometric portico, frames and shades the massive double height window and welcomes guests into the spacious interior in style. We could so imagine Mr Bond walking in, climbing the spiral staircase and being greeted by a baddie with a white cat!
Once inside, the movie-style magic just keeps going, with a wall of glass in the spacious living area, flooding the villa with light. In this spectacular pad, you can live the life of luxury, just like Bond by selecting a fine vintage from the floor-to-ceiling wine cellar, playing a game or two in the pool room, or relaxing in the sauna.
Villa Sirius in Marbella
Shaken, not stirred on a lounger by the pool
Villa Sirius in Marbella
The azure water of the outdoor heated pool makes you want to dive right in. Surrounded by chic sun loungers and alfresco dining and cooking areas, you can imagine some bikini clad beauties waiting to receive the handsome spy. Put on your Ursula Andress bikini, mix up a martini in the outdoor kitchen and soak up the sun in style. We love the sunken fire pit too, to relax when the sun goes down.
For Your Eyes Only - Enjoy total privacy on the many terraces
There are lots of wonderful terrace spaces to relax like a movie star, away from prying eyes. The two rooftop terraces with a solarium are perfect for getting the perfect tan. Plus, the large, zoned covered terraces are ideal for dining, relaxing, reading or socialising in the shade.
The perfect place to park your Aston Martin
The car port in Villa Sirius is an amazing piece of design and would make the perfect home for any of Bond’s supercars. Did you know that you can also rent a supercar during your holiday in Marbella, to get into the spirit of 007?
Vacation Marbella
Recreate the iconic golf duel from Goldfinger
Golf plays a big part in the Bond films, and Sean Connery was a passionate player, who often took to the golf courses in Marbella.
It’s easy to recreate the iconic scene in Goldfinger if you’re staying at Villa Sirius, but under the Marbella sun! It’s located in Nueva Andalucia, also known as Golf Valley, and is nestled between Las Brisas and Aloha Golf Clubs. These are both courses where Connery himself played and was a member.
So as part of a 007 inspired holiday, you can follow in the footsteps of this legend by staying in Villa Sirius through Vacation Marbella and enjoying the area’s many charms. Don’t forget to sign those postcards - From Marbella with Love!!
