With the capital’s sandy shores just 20 metres from your door, there are no prizes for guessing this smart studio apartment’s biggest draw. Perfect for business travellers or couples looking for a fuss-free central base, you can take your pick from the various dining options and seafront bars dotted about the neighbourhood. Back home, while this newbuild apartment may be a studio, it offers all the creature comforts, including a well-equipped kitchen with a coffee pod machine for those obligatory morning brews. If we were being picky, it’s a shame not to have any outdoor space to call your own. But with the sandy beach just a flip-flop away, we’ll forgive that.
