Luxury Bookings with Confidence
When you want to secure a stay at a property as exclusive as The Sanctuary Marbella, you want certainty, trust, and the very best service from start to finish. While platforms like Airbnb or Booking.com can be the most convenient booking method for lots of people, using them also comes with risks. When you use these types of platforms, you could run the risk of seeing scam listings and properties suddenly being removed, leaving you without a confirmed stay.
At The Sanctuary, we believe that a villa of this calibre should only be booked one way: directly with us. It’s the safest and most secure way to secure your holiday, ensuring every detail of your experience is handled with care.
Avoid the Risk of Fraudulent Listings
Luxury villas are often a prime target for fraudulent online listings. Fake profiles, outdated calendars, and misleading photographs are just some of the traps travellers can fall into when relying on third-party platforms. By booking directly with The Sanctuary, you remove the uncertainty. You deal only with our dedicated team; there are no middlemen, no miscommunication, and no risk.
No Sudden Cancellations or Removals
Another drawback of third-party sites is the lack of control involved. In 2025, Spain introduced stricter regulations for holiday rentals, leading to thousands of unregistered properties being removed from platforms like Airbnb. Properties can be removed overnight, bookings can be cancelled without warning, and customer service can be very slow to resolve problems, potentially leaving you without any accommodation at all.
When you book with us, your reservation is guaranteed, and the only way to secure your stay is through direct contact with our team.
A Personalised Experience
Booking directly gives you peace of mind and unlocks the full experience of The Sanctuary. While Marbella offers many luxury villa rentals, The Sanctuary is one of the few properties where guests can book directly with confidence, gaining access to privacy and hotel-style services in one of Spain’s most prestigious destinations.
With us, you get:
- Dedicated concierge services: from airport transfers to local experiences, arranged just for you.
- Private chefs: enjoy bespoke dining experiences, including everything from a poolside barbecue, family banquet, or wellness-focused menu for the duration of your stay.
- Wellness & fitness: we have full spa facilities, a dedicated yoga studio, a fitness studio, and private massage suites at your disposal.
- Exclusive access to villa-only services: we can arrange yoga sessions, spa treatments, guided hikes, golf days, or evenings at Marbella’s finest restaurants for you.
Unlike most villa rentals, The Sanctuary feels more like checking into your own private boutique hotel. Guests are welcomed with a detailed guide to Marbella’s best dining and experiences, plus a full property manual that makes it easy to enjoy every feature – whether you want to fire up the sauna, use the spin studio, or simply relax by the infinity pool.
They’re part of what makes The Sanctuary a unique experience, and not just a place to rest your head at night. And the only way to access them is by dealing with us directly.
Why Third Parties Can’t Compete
Booking platforms can’t replicate the service, security, and ease that come with direct communication. When you book with us, you’ll speak directly to the people who know the property inside and out, who understand your needs, and who can tailor the experience to your group.
The Smart Choice for Luxury Travellers
Choosing to stay at The Sanctuary Marbella means choosing privacy, security, and comprehensive services. Booking directly is the only way to guarantee your place at this exclusive villa, free from the risks and limitations of third-party sites.
If you’re planning a luxury escape in Marbella, don’t leave it to chance. Book directly with us and experience The Sanctuary exactly as it’s meant to be – private, luxurious, and unforgettable.
