Combining soothing beach and desert vibes in its stylish decor, this beautifully curated apartment is all about relaxation and comfort. Watch the trees swaying just outside from the large arched windows in the living area before making yourself comfortable on the sofa with a glass of Spanish wine. The dining table here beckons celebratory tapas-inspired meals cooked up in the sleek kitchen, while the separate office space is ideal for those needing to catch up on work and emails. With a pair of pared-back bedrooms dressed in soft throws and soothing earthy palettes, you’ll have no trouble getting a good night’s sleep with wake-ups made all the more enticing thanks to the bathrooms’ rainfall showers. Outside of your home, Salamanca’s high-end boutiques offer the perfect excuse for some retail therapy, while El Retiro Park provides a stunning way to spend a day of carefree ambling.

Local guide
About Salamanca
Salamanca is Madrid’s most glamorous and prestigious quarter. Usually associated with aristocratic façades, wide avenues, and luxurious living (atypical for Madrid’s cosy centre), the neighbourhood attracts domestic and international elite. It’s also home to many embassies and private schools, as well as niche museums and designer boutiques along its ‘Golden Mile’. The demanding clientele has made the food scene equally exclusive, but while you’re likely to find quite a few Michelin-star restaurants in the area, there are lots of relaxed tapas bars for those less willing to splash the cash.
