Nestled into the banks of the Urumea River, right before it flows into the Cantabrian Sea, sits a home so sleek you won’t know if you’re staying in a luxurious hotel or a cosy home. Pairing a gentle colour palette with contemporary takes on mid-century designs, this home oozes peaceful serenity in the centre of town. Maitenminduta, which means to be in love, is perfectly located to experience all that the city has to offer. Head into the bay of La Concha for an early morning swim or walk just a short way to the Old Town at the tip of the Peninsula for a culinary experience you won’t soon forget. Bustling with bars and restaurants, you’ll want to take on the Old Town with a great appetite. Famous for its pintxos, these small snacks go brilliantly with any of the local beers, wines and ciders. When night falls, we recommend going for a pintxos crawl, hopping from one bar to the next until you’re so full you don’t think you can make it home. Except, of course, your home is just a short walk from all of this.

About San Sebastián
With the most Michelin stars per square meter in Europe, the coastal city of San Sebastián is a foodie paradise. It’s not just fine dining that draws the crowds into the restaurants; fresh oysters washed down with sparkling txakoli, and the pintxos bars offer a distinctly Basque take on tapas.
