We suspect we aren't the only ones with a weakness for a sea view and this San Sebastian apartment more than delivers on that front. Not only can you gaze out at the invitingly blue waters of La Concha Bay through the living room's huge window, but you're also treated to a coastal vista from the small balcony. Back inside, there's much to like about the light-filled living quarters. The interior design is simple but tasteful – we're talking wooden floors, pastel hues on the wall and a couple of pieces of artwork. You might find the fact that there are two small kitchens rather than one large one an odd choice on the architect's behalf, but look at it as generosity instead, particularly as there are a pair of living rooms as well.

At the same time, the charming Old Town is easily reachable on foot, too.
