Modern and bright, this three-bedroom apartment's stone's throw proximity to the beach is what first caught our eye. Celebrating the sunshine with a generous balcony, ideal for when you need a little more leg room – the living space is on the smaller side. Take the kids swimming in the shared indoor or outdoor pools when you're not in the sauna and communal gym. The outdoor table is ideal for alfresco breakfasts with an ocean view before setting off to explore Villajoyosa, a short drive away.
