Feel your troubles drift away on a coastal breeze as you sip cocktails on the balcony – is there any better way to get into holiday mode? We love the outside space of this contemporary apartment – the balcony is petite but still large enough for you to dine alfresco, take in the sea views, and watch the sun sink in the sky at the end of each day. You’ll also have an excellent view of the shared swimming pool, where you can float in the sunshine or swim laps each day. Children will love having their own shallow pool to splash about in, too. The apartment is modern and stylish, with a chic monochrome colour palette and the odd splash of colour. It’s the kind of relaxing, welcoming space that makes for an ideal home-from-home – and everything you might need during your stay has been thought of. The living, dining and kitchen space is open, so you can prop up the bar area chatting while the chef in your group gets to work whipping up a meal. If you’d rather dine out, you need only stroll 300 metres to reach the centre of Riviera del Sol. Choose from a wealth of restaurants and bars, or browse the local shops. Playa Riviera beach is just 400 metres away, so days at the beach will certainly be part of your trip itinerary. Home truths: *The swimming pool is shared with other guests *Your host does not accept bookings from groups of guests aged under 25 *There’s a supermarket 300 metres away from this apartment *Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
