Villa Sotogrande

Aqua, a Dream Villa of Luxury in La Gran Reserva de Sotogrande

One of two projects within La Gran Reserva, the last private enclave in the most exclusive area of Sotogrande. The 15 offers its residents stunning views of the coast and beyond. Water is the root of this project. Since the beginning of time, water has been the main source and element of life.

AQUA adapts to your family’s lifestyle, placing comfort and quality of life at the heart of the project.

Surrounded by a large natural park and with panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, ARK Architects has designed Aqua, an innovative residential project inspired primarily by water. The villa, located in the private community The 15 (La Gran Reserva) in Sotogrande and designed by architect Manuel Ruiz, allows water to flow into the interior spaces and blend with them, creating a microclimate that cools the house in summer while the courtyards act as lungs. ”This architectural gem is rooted in humanist principles and connection with natural surroundings, as well as its relationship with light,” the architecture firm explained in a statement.

Aqua stands out for its ”privileged topography” that guarantees panoramic mountain views, oriented southeast. This villa, located in the Cul de Sac, offers additional privacy across more than 2,500 square meters of carefully designed spaces.

Spread over three levels, the residence features a total of seven bedrooms including a master suite, four additional suites, a guest suite, and a service suite. With ten bathrooms in total—eight full and two additional—the house also offers a wide range of amenities including:

- Elevator
- Fireplaces
- Outdoor infinity pool
- Indoor pool and spa
- Gym
- Home office
- Wine cellar
- Underground garage with space for eight vehicles
- Two additional outdoor spaces in the carport, ideal for customization based on the owners’ hobbies

”Carefully designed to preserve and enhance the stunning panoramic mountain views, Aqua is distinguished by its imposing presence and longitudinal layout, which maximizes views and offers a streamlined architectural development,” the statement highlights.

In line with ARK’s commitment to sustainability, Aqua features roofs designed for solar panels, courtyards that act as ventilation chimneys (contact with water allows the house to self-regulate, creating a constant atmosphere of around 23°C), and a pool with a self-cleaning and filtration system. Additionally, its mixed grass requires minimal maintenance and needs no hydro-sanitary treatments or extra irrigation.

AQUA enchants the space it occupies. The location is unique—a plot in the private area of Los 15 with a large natural park and views of the Mediterranean Sea.
