This bright and modern penthouse is a great place to stay during your trip to Alicante. Equally perfect for families or groups of friends, it's the ideal spot to begin your adventures by the sea and beyond. 

Step inside, and you'll find a smart open-plan space that's brilliant for socialising with your guests. Start your mornings with an espresso at the breakfast bar from the pod coffee machine as you plan your itinerary. And, there's no better way to round off an evening than with dinner and drinks on the balcony – there's even a gorgeous garden wall and an outdoor sofa. 

From here, you can saunter down to Playa del Postiguet for a day on the sand with fabulous views of the iconic Castillo de Santa Barbara. There are plenty of nearby restaurants serving local dishes for when you get peckish, and you must sip a glass of sangria at one of the waterfront bars. And, if you're feeling active, you can climb the Monte Benacantil or try your hand at some watersports on one of Costa Blanca's many beaches.

Nice to haves

In the buzzing coastal city of Alicante, this apartment looks straight down one of the art deco streets to the glimmering sea. It’s a 500m stroll to the waterfront, where you can follow the promenade straight to the soft-sanded beach. By the water, you’ll find a healthy selection of bars, restaurants and cafes to fuel beachy days.

The apartment itself is a charming medley of sleek modernism and boho touches. The monochrome kitchen has everything you need for self-catering and the cosy living area has raw wood touches and throws adding a bit of character. But the best thing has to be the private balcony, furnished with lounge furniture and a dinner table. This is where you really get the benefit of the sixth-floor location (don’t worry, there’s a lift in the building), overlooking the palm-lined street below all the way to the sea.

Smack bang in the heart of delightful Dénia, this no-fuss apartment is perfect for couples or solo travellers looking for some rest and relaxation on the Costa Blanca. Inside, the place strikes a balance between comfort and function. There’s a compact kitchen equipped for quick meals and a quiet bedroom to ensure a peaceful sleep night after night. But it was the view that was our favourite part. We could’ve spent hours on that modular chair, watching the palm trees sway and the boats to and fro from the harbour, only breaking our gaze to open a bottle of Rioja as the sun sets. Spend mornings exploring your locale – you’re a ten-minute walk from the Dénia Castle and eighteen minutes from the Marineta Casiana Beach. If you’re feeling curious, take the twenty-minute drive to Parc Natural del Montgó for stunning hiking routes or catch the ferry from the port to the dazzling Balearic Islands.

It's plain to see that somebody with a real eye for design has worked their magic on this townhouse found in the coastal town of Calp. Everywhere you look inside, there are tasteful touches, from the dining table made from a repurposed door and the unashamedly bright colours on the walls to the sheer range of objets d'art dotted about the home.

We're also happy to say that there's plenty of substance behind this style. The sleek black kitchen not only looks the part, but it's also well-equipped for whipping up a feast. We're also fond of the terrace, which has views out over the rooftops and verdant hillsides beyond.

When you're ready to get to know the locale a little better, you'll be surprised at how much there is to see. All of three minutes' walk from the home is Torreó de la Peça, the centuries-old defensive walls built to protect the town from marauders. Arena-Bol beach is a ten-minute walk, while further along the coastline, it's possible to head up to the top of Penyal d'Ifac in just over an hour on foot for some incredible views.

Just a three minute walk to the nearest sandy beach of Arenal, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing somewhere for dinner, a morning coffee, or a glass of sangria as you watch the world go by. There is also a rocky beach just a stone's throw from the apartment, where you can enjoy excellent snorkelling, scuba diving and fishing. The pretty port and historic old town of Javea is just three kilometres away, and you'll find two prestigious golf courses within around a twenty minute radius.

Whether you've spent that day playing a few holes, soaking up the southern Spanish sunshine on your favourite local beach, or exploring the beguiling backstreets of Javea – unmistakably Spanish with their whitewashed houses adorned with bright swathes of bougainvillea – you can always return to the comfort and calm of this home away from home. Cook up something tasty in the kitchen (we especially love preparing a steam pan of Arroz a la Banda, Alicante’s take on typical paella), before heading out onto the balcony that overlooks the communal swimming pool, perhaps breaking out the board games to while away the evening as dusk turns into a star-speckled night.

Located just a short walk from the sandy beaches of Calpe and the coastal peak of Penyal d'Ifac Natural Park, this modern villa with views of the mountains provides a seamless mix of indoor and outdoor living. The home centres around the ample garden with its modern pool, alfresco diner, and external lounge that connects via sliding glass doors to the comfortable living room, making the perfect social space to enjoy sunny afternoons and evenings. Each of the bedrooms also features access to their own balcony or patio, adding an extra sense of privacy and luxury.

If you’re looking for an authentic coastal town, this home’s location is bound to impress. Situated in Jávea, you’ll be just five kilometres from sandy beaches and the Medieval streets of the old town. Situated high up in the hills, you’ll have plenty of peace, privacy and incredible views over the mountains and valley, but bear in mind that a car is necessary to reach the villa. If you’d rather not venture out, three levels offer plenty of space to relax, plus a garden containing a private pool and Jacuzzi for those alfresco evenings. 

Hillside History 

Tennis Court

Whether you're splashing in the private pool, tucking into an alfresco feast on the covered terrace or lounging with a book in the sun, this bright villa on the outskirts of Jávea promises plenty of rest, relaxation and fun. With two living areas, three bedrooms, a glossy kitchen and a lovely terrace fit for entertaining, there's more than enough space here to make yourself at home. Start the day with a coffee on the outdoor sofa, then jump in the pool to cool off. Throw open the patio doors and seamlessly move between the terrace and the sleek living space, enjoying lunch around the dining table as you feel the breeze on your skin. Pick up some fresh seafood from the fish auction every afternoon, then fire up the grill in the evenings as the sun goes down. Don't feel like cooking? Drive ten minutes into Jávea and enjoy dinner on the water – there are heaps of cafes, bars and restaurants to tickle your fancy. And, of course, a trip to Alicante isn't complete without a day at the beach – Playa Delarenal's wide sandy shore is eleven minutes by car, but we prefer the quiet cove of Platja de la Granadella, eight minutes away.

Lemon Coloured Cove

This is a villa that will have even the most hard-to-please guests grinning. A lot of that is down to its fabulous views of the glistening Mediterranean and Isla del Portitxol, but special praise also goes to the peaceful swimming pool surrounded by treetops and the covered terrace complete with an alfresco dining table. Although some of the bathrooms are a little dated, we've only got kind words for the three-level layout – we particularly love the main bedroom with a sea-facing balcony. To top it all off, you don't have far to venture for beautiful gold-sand beaches, either.

If you’re planning a sunny getaway with a group of family or friends, this elegant villa set in Montgó natural park will tick every one of your holiday boxes. Inside, this home oozes sophistication. A light colour palette combines beautifully with wicker and painted wooden furniture, keeping the whole space bright and inviting, while original features such as exposed beams and stone arches add a touch of character. At the heart of the villa lies the generous open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, and it’s easy to see that this home was designed as a space for family and friends to gather. The sleek, modern kitchen is one you’ll want to cook in, and you’ll be surrounded by your loved ones as you rustle up a feast.

The outside space jostles for attention with the interior, and it would be hard to choose a winner. We love the outdoor seating areas – whether you’ve chosen to enjoy a meal on the covered terrace or you’re simply tucked up on the sofa taking a quiet five minutes to yourself, the view is framed perfectly by the arches. You’ll find it hard to drag yourself away from this tranquil spot. 

For those seeking a bit more action, the sun glistening off the surface of the pool is bound to invite you in for a swim, after which you can stretch out on a sun lounger with the mountains as your backdrop. With petanque, table tennis and a full-size clay tennis court, you’ll never be lost for something to do. With the beauty of nature wrapping around you, here, you’ve found a little slice of Spanish paradise.

Lying back on a sunlounger on the stone terrace of this typically Mediterrannean villa, gaze out over the hills that surround Villajoyosa and allow yourself to completely unwind. The villa is ideal for a chilled-out holiday on the Costa Blanca, thanks to its sea views, and terrace perfect for drawn-out lunches. Wander into the traditional town of Villajoyosa to pick up some fresh fish from the daily market for a relaxed barbecued dinner. Luckily, it’s also within easy reach of Benidorm, meaning nightlife and attractions are only a short journey away.

Rugged Cliffs

With sea views and plenty of spots to soak up the rays, this villa makes an ideal Costa Blanca retreat. Everyone will enjoy the swimming pool, while the covered terrace and sun-kissed sitting area are perfect for dinner and drinks in the coastal breeze. Sure, the design isn't the most modern, but there's a lot of room to spread out inside – not to mention it's kitted out with everything you need for a fuss-free stay. A car is a must here, as this home is located in the hills above the town. Still, it's just a short drive to Jávea's beaches, restaurants, and buzzing centre.

Tropical Teal

Set against an eye-catching mountain backdrop, this home comprises two separate villas rented out together, so is a great choice for two families or groups of friends holidaying together. As well as a private pool, the lush gardens have lots of extra features, including a yoga gazebo, Balinese day bed, and fruit tree orchard. And inside, there’s plenty of space for everyone to find a bit of privacy when they want it. Location-wise, the villa is near a twenty-seven-hole golf course and a day spa, with the tourist destinations of Denia and Javea also within easy reach.

Shade of the Sun

There is something truly magical about this corner of Spain – maybe it’s the white, sandy beaches, the stunning views, or the vibrant culture. Staying at this gorgeous villa, nestled amidst lush greenery and overlooking the breathtaking sea vistas will allow you to experience all of the above. 

Even before stepping through the front door, you’ll be charmed by the vast garden and pool area, which boast magnificent panoramas and offer peace and tranquillity. There is a pool house here, too, so you can get yourself prepared for an afternoon of lounging about, catching up on your holiday reads and working on your tan. The outdoor barbecue oven and dining area make it an ideal spot for enjoying delicious alfresco meals with your family and friends.

Come inside and feel instantly embraced by the home’s cosy vibe – we love the stone floors and wooden details, not to mention the charming fireplace, which can offer added warmth should a chillier night catch you by surprise. The plush, comfy bedrooms carry the promise of a restful night’s sleep – wake up refreshed and enjoy your breakfast on the upstairs terrace, taking in the wonderful views of the seaside and the surrounding mountains. 

Once you’re ready to head out and explore, the area has plenty of exciting activities in store. From horse riding and cycling, to golfing, surfing and sailing – there are numerous options to choose from, all within a fifteen-minute drive from the house. If you prefer to simply relax and enjoy the beach, head out to the gorgeous El Arenal, a mere six minutes away by car.  


With a View to Dream

Sauna

Exercise Equipment

This villa caught our eye for its incredible sea views – and with five terraces and three balconies, there are plenty of spots to enjoy them from. You’ve also got a private pool and the use of a fitness centre and sauna to make your stay even more enjoyable. Inside, the contemporary living spaces offer ocean vistas and all of the bedrooms are ensuite for added privacy. The historic town of Javea, with its many shops, restaurants and tapas bars, is a 10km drive away and if you fancy eating in, your host can help arrange a cooking service so you won’t have to lift a finger.

Ocean Vistas

With direct access to Llevant Beach and unobstructed panoramas of the Mediterranean Sea from the private terrace, this apartment suits families or friends seeking a sun-soaked holiday on the eastern coast of Spain. Benidorm’s Old Town is on the doorstep, placing you within easy walking distance of bars, restaurants and cafes. This home is fuss-free yet well-appointed. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking up a storm, and there’s plenty of wardrobe space for those planning a longer break.


Benidorm Breeze

White-pillared and glass-fronted, this spectacular villa juts out of the mountain like a princess-cut diamond on a gold band. Sharp lines and clean spaces characterise this modern home, from the cavernous living room with its all-cream furniture and UFO-shaped skylights to the bright bedrooms. Artwork, in stark contrast, is bold with huge colourful prints hung in each room. We won't be surprised if you miss all those details, however, as it's the views that will have you enraptured. Looking out over the Mediterranean ocean, the home has floor-to-ceiling windows for uninterrupted panoramas – from the master bed when you wake up to your mid-afternoon soak in the standalone bathtub. Head out for a closer inspection, with a blue infinity pool to make you feel like you're floating, while the upstairs balcony is unbeatable for watching the sunset.

Spicy Red

Breakfast Included

Sitting just 100 metres from Platja de l'Olla on the Costa Blanca, this apartment offers a comfortable coastal break with plenty of sun-soaking opportunities in store. A private lawn with a shaded patio is the highlight of the home itself, with access to the outdoors from the living area and main bedroom. While the decor isn’t the most exciting in our collection, the home nonetheless benefits from a communal pool area – as well as a children’s pool for little ones – and beautifully manicured gardens with sea views. You’ll also find bars and the promenade within 500 metres, Altea within 2 kilometres, not to mention plenty of outdoor activities on hand nearby, including hiking, cycling, kayaking, fishing, diving, snorkelling and waterskiing.


Fuchsia Feliz

This spacious and well-located villa is a good option for a family or group of friends wanting to holiday in Denia, Costa Blanca. There's a fully equipped kitchen and comfortable living room area to relax in – albeit a little dated in terms of decor. Equipped for all seasons, there's a fireplace for cooler evenings and air conditioning for the summer months. We love the lawned gardens surrounding this family-friendly home – they boast superb sea and mountain views and include a large private pool and BBQ area too. While you can explore the local area on foot, we suggest a car for ease – Parc Natural del Montgó is less than 2km from the villa.

Waves & Water

Heated Pool

Underfloor Heating

Indulge in a Spanish siesta dream only to awaken and find it’s a reality. This villa hosts a pristine pool, a rooftop terrace with a plush seating area a sea-grazing location. Situated along the coast from El Campello, you’ll have access to the Mediterranean waters, Amenador coves and golden beaches within moments of leaving your home.

The sleek open-plan space is brilliant for socialising with your guests. Start your mornings with an espresso on the plant-walled terrace, then gather on the plump sofa as you make plans for the day. The sun will keep you company as you dive into the pool and bathe under the gentle rays on the sun loungers. If you’re seeking a repose from the sun, head up to the rooftop terrace to turn pages of your holiday read under the shelter of the sprawling canopy. The slick kitchen is set up for Mediterranean feasts for you to enjoy alfresco or fire up the barbecue for some chargrilled appetisers. There’s a juicer here too – we suggest an evening of grapefruit paloma cocktails on the rooftop as the stars descend.

Such is the charm of the villa, you may never wish to leave. But if you’re seeking sand, the beautiful Platja de l'Amerador is just a stone’s throw away. For a one-of-a-kind experience, make the drive to Baños de la Reina, where you can swim and snorkel in the majestic crystal-clear pools carved from the rock. 

Ocean Coves

This beachfront apartment offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, Playa Poniente and Benidorm’s skyline. With three bedrooms and a sofa bed in the living space, sleeping arrangements are flexible here, making it an excellent choice for families or groups of friends. Underfloor heating means it’s a comfortable place to relax during the cooler months, but if you’re visiting during the height of summer, take advantage of the pool, terrace and direct access to the sand. A private concierge service makes this place extra special – choose from helicopter tours to grocery deliveries and make your holiday one to remember.

Casa Cala

Marina Alta is a coastal region that can please just about everyone  – from history buffs to beach bums, and hikers to urbanites, this region of Spain isn’t just all about waterside delights. Just a ten-minute drive inland from the picturesque town of Altea (and don’t worry, you will pass beaches en route), you’ll love unwinding in this zen-like villa. 

Traditional whitewashed walls and a terracotta roof are right on par with what you might expect in the area. But as you step inside, passing interesting shrubbery and succulents outside, the vibe is altogether more modern. We love the fresh and bright living space, with a cherry-red sofa suite and an ornately carved, wooden cabinet. Oversized bamboo canes and a woven lampshade complete the look as you move to the sunroom – a striking cylindrical structure that really sets the architecture apart from rustic traditions.

From here, peer out to your secluded gardens. Lush, green, and shaded by palms, the immaculate lawn surrounds a private, heated pool. Wander around to find orange trees popping up in the grass, and terracotta tiles leading up a staircase to the roof terrace – it's much easier to survey your kingdom from up here.

La Taronja

Outdoor Kitchen

Nestled in a quiet spot in Altea, this villa has a private pool, three floors and two terraces to stretch your legs on. While some of the furnishings might be a little dated, the views from the bedrooms' balconies are fantastic.  The outdoor amenities make this home shine, with a lush garden to tire out the kids, sunbeds for the grown-ups, and alfresco dining facilities. Altea la Vieja is a brisk twenty-minute walk from your doorstep, known for its restaurants and golf course.

Swimming in the Shade

Sauna / Steam Room

Desk / Workplace

Get lost in an infinity of blue as this Spanish haven offers breathtaking views over the Mediterranean Sea. Up high, in an elevated position, you'll feel on top of the world when staying here. We particularly love the private terrace area – overlooking the cliff edge, you'll get to lap up in vistas of both the landscape and the sparkling seascape from morning through to night. 

Inside the apartment, you'll find clean lines and contemporary furnishings that create a luxurious setting to soak up the laid-back beachside lifestyle of the surrounding locale. Designed around leisure, the apartment complex features an indoor and outdoor pool, a fitness room and a hammam and sauna room - all for guests to use at their own disposal. 

Situated in Benitachell, just a ten-minute drive away from Moraig Beach, you'll be in a prime position for exploring the sandy shores of the Alicante coastline – with plenty of shops, bars and waterfront restaurants waiting to be discovered. 


Blue Infinity

This stylish pet-friendly apartment lies on the coast of Altea, overlooking the harbour. On the fifth floor with lift access, this home is a great base for exploring the promenade, beach, and cultural sights. There's always the chance of hearing some noise from neighbours, so if you're a light sleeper it may be worth packing earplugs. With a communal garden, the sea right on your doorstep and the whole of Altea to explore by car, you can't get much closer to the action.

A Nautical Horizon

Set far enough back from Arenal beachfront to avoid the hustle and bustle, yet with the sandy shores a mere five-minute walk away, this apartment treats you to the best of both worlds. While the view from the private balcony is out onto the road and apartments opposite, you can still enjoy a peek of the sea. It’s also a nice spot for an evening glass of sangria. And if you need to cool off but don’t fancy the beach, the communal pool is just the ticket for a refreshing dip. 

Contemporary Cove

With a sprawling garden and terrace – ideal for delicious dinners under the stars or a snooze on the outdoor sofa – a sparkling pool and plenty of room to spread out, this home checks all the boxes for a laid-back coastal stay. The light, bright interiors make the most of that sunlight and have plenty of beautiful ceramics and sculptures from all over the world to admire. The local resort provides plenty for those who want to get out and about, with bakeries and cafes within ambling distance – perfect for breakfast pastry pickups – climbing, hiking, surfing and sailing for the adventurous, weekly markets and fiestas and festivals if you come at the right time of the year. You're also just over one kilometre from the powdery beaches the Costa Blanca is known for – grab a deck chair and don't move for a while.

Wavelengths

There’s a playful charm to this peach-pink villa on the outskirts of the northern port city of Dénia. We love the pretty curved archways shading the patio terrace – the perfect spot for morning coffees and sunny views of the surrounding villas and palm-lined swimming pool below. Head inside for an open-plan living room and dining area with tiled-flooring, comfy furnishings and homely rugs creating a sociable yet homely ambience. Back outside, you’ll revel in your private al fresco dining area or late-afternoon snoozing spot, with the turquoise pool water beckoning you in for a cooling dip. This villa sits in a tranquil residential area where you’ll be a twenty-minute walk from Costa Blanca’s warm golden sand beaches. Benefitting from a host of restaurants and bars, the 200-kilometre-long vibrant and built-up shore is known for its buzzing nightlife and evening entertainment. Well-positioned, a stay here offers you that precious downtime with the option of big exciting trips into town. 

Pastel Strokes

Sonos

Ideally located a ten-minute walk from Platja de l'Arenal, this boho-chic is all about beach days and relaxing in style. Linen, wood, wicker and concrete make up the interiors, creating a calming environment that’s a pleasure to spend time in. Two balconies call for mornings to be spent outside – tuck into your breakfast accompanied by views overlooking the glittering Mediterranean or puzzle over a crossword as you idly sip an espresso. 

In the afternoon, float about in the cool water of the communal pool. Or why not jump in the car and explore Spain’s southeastern coast? Head into Dénia for a trip back in time at the Archaeological Museum followed by a sunbathing session on the soft sands of Platja de les Marines. 

Time Moves Slowly

Wheelchair Access

Immediately, this home is a sight to behold. An impressive contemporary design of sharp edges and white stone stands bold against pine-clad hillside. Inside, light and airy bedrooms are maximised by enormous sliding doors that open out onto a wrap-around balcony. Downstairs, the open-plan living space exudes sophisticated minimalism. Clean, simple lines flow onto the terrace, where you're greeted with a burst of technicolour. The pool, sky and ocean on the horizon shimmer in all shades of blue, while the garden blooms a verdant green. Bring up a bottle of red from the wine cellar and sit out in the sun on a lounger or around the dining table, snacking on cured meats and chatting about nothing in particular. The charming town of Xàbia is just a ten-minute drive away – here you can deliberate between restaurants that serve the best of Spanish cuisine before heading home to catch a pastel sunset. No matter which spot you choose, indoor or outdoor, the views across the landscape are second to none. 


Vista Tranquila

Each with their own entrances, modern kitchens, and stylish living rooms, this home is actually two: one apartment and one house, perfect for couples or grown-up families. Sharing the same outdoor space, the homes are both blessed with stunning vistas across the rolling Spanish countryside. Chill out underneath one of the straw-covered parasols, soak up the sun on a lounger, or fire up the barbecue and dine on the balcony to catch the last rays of the day. Offering up privacy when wanted, both homes are self-contained and sport a fresh, summery style. Adults should reserve the larger space and its open-plan living area, which sports cowhide rugs, sensual prints, and cosy leather sofas. But it's easy to come together as a group, outdoors or indoors – this is communal living, with a Spanish edge.

Rosemary Rocks

This immaculately presented villa is made for family holidays close to the sea. The picturesque historic town of Javea, with its fine sandy shores and water sport action, is within five kilometres of the villa – as are those seafront restaurants and bars for an easy bite to eat. Back home, kids will love you for the lengthy swimming pool and lawns for a runabout. And you’ll all appreciate those shady terraces with views of the surrounding Montgo Mountain when it’s time to beat the heat. And there’s no need to tussle for the best room here – each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and direct access to those stylish verandas outside. 

The Chasing Star

With a stripped-back, fuss-free interior, the beauty of this home lies on the outside. If your Costa Blanca holiday is all about topping up your tan, the sun-soaked terraces will be a welcome sight – as will the private pool and Mediterranean Sea views, which stretch all the way to Ibiza on a clear day. With a whole host of outdoor activities available within five kilometres of the villa, you’ll never be short of things to do. Or, for a more laid-back day trip, enjoy a leisurely stroll through the Granadella nature reserve to a charming pebble beach, just twenty minutes away. 

Spanish Vibes

This single-level, modern villa on the Costa Blanca has all the ingredients for a great holiday. There are a good-sized private pool, nice garden and several terraces to enjoy – one of which is covered for some alfresco dining. The living room and bedrooms all have air conditioning and there is a woodburner for those chillier days. You can go sightseeing or soak up some culture in the nearby town of Moraira. For the adventure-seekers, there are activities such as snorkelling, kayaking and wind-surfing five kilometres down the road. 

Spanish Chic

Boasting gorgeous views, a private pool, and space for alfresco dining, this villa guarantees a stylish stay. It's not suitable for young children due to the lack of fencing in the some of the outdoor areas and the pool, but there are ground-floor bedrooms and bathrooms, and a double sofa bed for some extra flexibility in the sleeping arrangements. We highly recommend having a car here, but it's not far to drive into the centre of Jávea or the nearby golf course. Further away, you'll find spectacular days out in the bustling city of Alicante and its beautiful beaches.

Casa de Tierra

Playground

The coastal town of Calp is a real glistening pearl of the Marina Alta province. With archaeological sites and historic fortresses sitting alongside bustling streets of cafés and bars, this town is a vibrant community in the sun – and of course there’s a fabulous beach. Just a six-minute walk from Playa el Arenal-Bol, this modern apartment is a perfect urban retreat. 

Looking up from below at this striking white building, it almost has the nautical feel of a towering, luxury yacht. It has curved balconies and railings wrapping around every floor, and glass doors letting the sunlight flood in at every level – but at the very bottom, the swimming pool adds to this marina vibe. Let the kids splash about here (or roam the playground, or play table tennis) while you head to the sixth floor to check out the interiors.

Fresh, bright, and modern, the living space has a Scandi rather than Spanish feel. Wooden floors and minimalist furniture look classy in the lounge, while sleek white cabinets bring a clean, futuristic look to the kitchen. And best of all – a huge private balcony with panoramic views of the city, ocean, and landscapes beyond. 

The Top Deck

If you’ve always hoped to hear the ocean’s roar from your bedroom, this beachfront Benidorm home might be your new favourite location. Leading right onto the golden sands of Playa de Levante, stroll out onto the beach, where you can position yourself for a morning of Mediterranean sun and fresh air. 

Meander back to your apartment, grab a takeaway pizza at a local restaurant, and enjoy lunch at the dining table with the salty air breezing through the gaping doors. Maintain your view of the oceanfront as you pour wine in the kitchen and sit around the table, socialising long after the last crust is gone.

For dinner, you might search for a more authentic Spanish meal at one of the surrounding tapas bars and stay out for drinks at a Tiki Bar. 

Bookworms will love the amount of natural light for reading when they're not doing so in the shade of a beach umbrella, and interior enthusiasts will likely fawn over the beautiful mix of boho chic and modern simplicity.
