Swish Marbella, the exclusive partner for Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes in Marbella and a leading curator of ultra-luxury private villas in Southern Europe, is proud to announce a new collaboration with Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes. This hand-picked collection represents the world’s finest private vacation homes under the globally renowned Mandarin Oriental.
Under this collaboration, a select number of Swish Marbella’s most exceptional villas have been chosen to be represented within the Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes collection. This partnership brings together Swish Marbella’s distinctive private villas with Mandarin Oriental’s globally recognised standards of luxury, discretion, and service excellence.
The initial collection includes a limited number of Swish Marbella’s most iconic private villas, each selected for its architectural character, prime positioning, and ability to deliver a seamless private-home experience with hotel-grade service.
Highlights within the portfolio include Villa Paris and Villa Azur in Nueva Andalucía’s Golf Valley, two statement Sierra Blanca villas, Villa Los Angeles and Villa Mirage, and Villa Tuscany, a serene retreat in La Cerquilla. The collection also features LVone, a beachside villa on Marbella’s Golden Mile within the prestigious gated community of Los Verdiales, as well as Villa Celestial, an exceptional ultra-private estate within La Zagaleta, one of the region’s most exclusive gated communities.
The portfolio extends beyond Marbella with Swish’s international destinations, including the newly introduced Villa Petrucci in Florence, located just steps away from the Ponte Vecchio, an elegant historic villa reimagined through a refined contemporary lens.
Swish Marbella has established itself as a reference in ultra-luxury rentals through rigorous property vetting, in-house maintenance and concierge teams, and a distinctly boutique approach. The company exclusively represents its own portfolio, with a total asset value exceeding €300 million, and serves a sophisticated international clientele seeking privacy, discretion, and seamless service.
“This collaboration reflects a strong alignment of values,” said Karen Ayat Issa, Co-Founder and CEO of Swish Marbella. “Mandarin Oriental is synonymous with timeless luxury, precision, and trust. Being selected for Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes allows a curated collection of our homes to reach a global audience while staying true to the care, discretion, and guest experience that define Swish Marbella.”
Philip Leighton, Head of Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes, adds: “We are delighted to expand our curated collection of Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes in the sought-after destinations of Florence and Marbella, welcoming a select group of exceptional private homes. Their attention to detail, refined design, and guest-centric philosophy align beautifully with our core values, supporting the delivery of Mandarin Oriental’s renowned standards of excellence.”
For guests, the collaboration offers access to a refined private-home experience curated by Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes and delivered in partnership with Swish Marbella’s highly specialised local teams.
For homeowners, this exclusive partnership establishes Swish Marbella as the sole gateway to the Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes collection in the region, providing unique international visibility alongside Swish Marbella’s established owner relationships and on-the-ground operational expertise.
This collaboration marks an important milestone in Swish Marbella’s continued growth and reflects its alignment with one of the world’s most respected luxury hospitality brands.
