Enjoy the sea air on the balcony of this lovely apartment in San Sebastian and admire the sea views – it's the perfect spot for a glass of wine. Inside this charming home, you'll find modern furnishings, light hardwood floors, and exposed wood columns. We love the master bedroom, which opens out onto the balcony. This place is ideal for a couple with a child, friends or a single traveller.

Spend the day on one of two nearby beaches – it's just a five-minute walk to Zurriola Beach, or explore San Sebastian's old town, three minutes on foot. Your friendly host Su can also organise a range of activities for you, from wine tasting day trips to La Rioja to cookery classes where you can learn to cook some classic pintxos.

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.

A sweep of beach blesses the city’s coastline, with calm waters for swimming in the Bahía de La Concha, and lively waves attracting thrill-seeking surfers to the north of the city.

The Isle of Santa Clara, floating out at sea is a little slice of idyllic wilderness, with walking trails and striking coastal views, just a short ferry ride from San Sebastian. In the city centre, it’s all belle epoque charm, where boulevards are lined with trees and packed with designer shops and sleek art galleries. The sprawling city parks retain some manicured, Victorian splendour, and the hike up to the top of Monte Urgull rewards with stunning views of the city and sea.
