Soak up gorgeous sea views from the comfort of your waterfront garden, as this apartment in Las Palmas is perched just ten metres away from Playa del Águila.

With a communal swimming pool to make the most of and unrivalled proximity to the beach – marvelling in a relaxing break far from the stresses of daily life couldn't be easier here.

While the interiors of this spot present contemporary and comfortable furnishings throughout, we bet you'll spend most of your time outside on the wrap-around garden terrace.

Pull up a sun lounger so that you're in prime view of the glistening seascape during the daytime and spend serene evenings around the alfresco dining area come evening. Watch the sunset colour the sky before heading out to discover the local bars by night.
