Decorated in understated luxe style, design lovers will feel instantly at home. There’s a little less natural light here than some of our other San Sebastian apartments, but the location more than makes up for it, and the cocktail-bar-esque styling is pitched perfectly for evening entertainment. Sink into the yellow rattan-and-velour armchair with a glass of Rioja and engage in conversation or watch a Spanish arthouse movie on the television. The dining table seats six for relaxed dinners with family and friends. Right outside the door, you’ll find labyrinthine streets home to some of the best restaurants in the world, a sweep of sandy beach and tree-lined trails leading panoramic views from the top of Monte Urgull.

On the edge of the Cantabrian Sea, this home contrasts its old-world Spanish setting with clean lines, pops of colour and a distinct Scandi-cool feel. Cleverly appointed furnishings and a slick kitchen ensure you’ll have plenty of space to relax, gather for a lively meal or game of cards, or set up a comfortable workstation. Of course, no trip to San Sebastián would be complete without a visit to the shore, and the soft sands of Zurriola Beach are just moments away.

A dove-grey sofa is the ideal spot to curl up for a quick catnap, while rattan lamps and side tables add pops of interest. The bedroom is similarly textural, and enjoys plenty of natural light from the French doors; throw them open for some sea air and to hear the sounds of the city waking up. The kitchen has a stove and coffee maker, making Spanish-style eggs easy. There’s a nearby car park where you can rent a space if necessary.

You’ll find three beaches in San Sebastian, where you can sunbathe, swim and even surf in the turquoise waters. Those with a car can also head out into the glorious Basque countryside, where there are hiking routes along the coast and inland. To round off your day, pour a drink and sit on the balcony – it overlooks the atrium of the Basílica de Santa María next door. 

Beside the Basilica

Just take a look at the views of the River Urumea, the Victoria Eugenia Theatre and Zurriola Beach from this apartment’s large terrace. You can also enjoy the vistas from inside this modern home. If you’re looking to sleep five guests, then one will be on a single sofa bed (probably best suited to children).

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.



Hold Your Head High

Desk

As far as locations go, this San Sebastián apartment absolutely nails it. La Concha Beach is a five-minute stroll away, Old Town is within easy walking distance, and numerous bars, shops and restaurants line the surrounding streets. Chances are, you'll spend most of your time here exploring, but during downtime, the contemporary living space has relaxation written all over it. The finish is sleek and modern, with each bedroom having its own bathroom for added convenience. Factor in the option to arrange paid parking nearby – though a car is anything but necessary here – and it really ticks all the boxes.

Basque Sunbeams

Juicer

Situated just a stone's throw from Plaza de Gipuzkoa, most of the city's main attractions are five minutes away on foot. For a day on the area's golden sands, head to Zurriola and La Concha beaches – watch the surfers here or have a dip in the Cantabrian Sea. As you'd expect, there are plenty of tempting bars and restaurants nearby to sample too.

If you don't feel like eating out, then cook a local speciality, salt cod, in the kitchen and enjoy it at the shiny glass dining table. We love the dark wood floors and muted colour scheme here, which creates a calming influence. This place would suit business professionals, a family or couples looking for a fabulous location in this charming city.


The Little White Cloud 

This home is for groups who are always on the go. Situated in the heart of Donostia–San Sebastián, this simple yet comfortable apartment is the perfect place to crash after a busy day spent exploring. You’re only a ten-minute walk from La Concha Beach and fifteen from Motako Gaztelua Chuch. Inside the home, there’s not much natural light (particularly in the living area) but the kitchen has everything you need for throwing together quick meals and the bedrooms are clutter-free and comfortable. 

Eguzkilore

If you're heading over to San Sebastian anytime soon, you're not going to find many apartments with a better location than this – from the front door, you can be wandering around the Old Town in less than sixty seconds, while both La Concha and Zurriola beaches are ten minutes' walk away, too.

The home itself overlooks Zualoga Plaza, but is a peaceful refuge from the buzzy activity below. All throughout, the colour palette is heavy on soothing whites and there's a pleasing contemporary sheen to the design, which borrows from Scandi trends. It must be said that the narrow kitchen has been designed with efficiency in mind, but you'll find everything you need to whip up hearty dinners for fellow guests.

Finishing off, the pair of bedrooms aren't as generously sized as the open living room space, but there will no be complaints when it comes to cosiness, especially after returning home from a long day of exploring the Basque town's museums, restaurants and the peak of Mount Urgull.

Prince of the Plaza

From its sleek and serene interiors you wouldn't guess this home is actually part of a stunning 19th-century building right in the centre of the action.

Perfectly located near the Old Town, beaches and the promenades, each bedroom boasts charming views of this vibrant central neighbourhood.

With contemporary furnishings, detail-oriented accent pieces and modern appliances, you'll always be glad to return home after an exciting day. And there's no such thing as a boring day in Donostia-San Sebastian; walk to La Concha Beach in just two minutes or cross over the Urumea River to explore the alternative scene in the neighbourhood of Gros. This is where you'll find the city's surfing beach and many of its cultural venues and institutions. When night falls, make the short walk north to the Old Town for mouth-watering pintxos and local wine. 

7th Heaven

Nestled into the banks of the Urumea River, right before it flows into the Cantabrian Sea, sits a home so sleek you won’t know if you’re staying in a luxurious hotel or a cosy home.

Maitenminduta, which means to be in love, is perfectly located to experience all that the city has to offer. Head into the bay of La Concha for an early morning swim or walk just a short way to the Old Town at the tip of the Peninsula for a culinary experience you won’t soon forget. Bustling with bars and restaurants, you’ll want to take on the Old Town with a great appetite. Famous for its pintxos, these small snacks go brilliantly with any of the local beers, wines and ciders. When night falls, we recommend going for a pintxos crawl, hopping from one bar to the next until you’re so full you don’t think you can make it home. Except, of course, your home is just a short walk from all of this. 

Maiteminduta

Simplicity is key in this apartment, with its minimalist decor and air of tranquillity. Throw open the French doors and step out onto the terrace to enjoy a bird’s eye view across the city.

For the more adventurous, try Zurriola Beach – take a lesson in riding the waves, or grab an ice cream and watch. 

Basque Beauty

Meticulously designed and ideally located within the city, this home is ripe for those who enjoy the finer things in life. With over one hundred metres of square footage, stunning contemporary interiors and plenty of original architectural features, this home is really something. Positioned in the ever-popular neighbourhood of Gros, you’re just a short walk from Zurriola Beach, colloquially known as Zurri. Famous for its impressive waves, it’s a surfer’s paradise and a vibrant and eclectic neighbourhood. A favourite amongst young people and keen adventurists, this area is home to numerous cultural institutions and venues, while still being close to all the city’s major attractions. From the apartment, it’s just a ten-minute walk to the Old Town, where you’ll be blown away by the sheer number of outstanding pintxos bars and restaurants. In San Sebastian, it’s essential to be hungry at all times because the food is unlike anywhere else.

Txangurro

What we love about this home – besides its outstanding location – is that its contemporary interiors are juxtaposed by the views of the surrounding Art Nouveau buildings. That means you can live with creature comforts while taking in the city’s rich history as a luxurious resort town. Welcoming six guests, there’s plenty of comfortable seating for everyone, especially on the sumptuous sofa and chaise longue in the living room. Step out onto the balcony to sip your morning coffee and take in the city’s awakening before heading out for a day of fun. You’ll be staying in Gras, a popular neighbourhood amongst young locals, artists and musicians. This is where you’ll find the city’s surfing beach and many of its cultural institutions. For reference, you’re about a ten-minute walk from Zurriola Beach and Kursaal, a cutting-edge theatre and auditorium. For pintxos, we recommend heading over the river to the bars and restaurants of the Old Town.

A mere few blocks to golden La Concha Beach, you'll look like a local about town in your sandals. On days you want to do something other than relaxing on the beach, take the 15-minute walk down cobbled streets to the Old Town. With beautiful craft shops, galleries, and independent ice cream parlours by day, and by night, the town’s pintxo bars and restaurants come alive. For an evening in, watch the lights sparkle over the town and music fill the streets - all from a candlelit dinner between the lofty French windows of the home.

Use one for a spot of sunbathing throughout the day, and gather on the other in the evening to watch the unbelievable ocean sunsets. Spend the day walking along the inviting promenade of Playa de la Concha and cool off with a dip in the ocean. Then head to the Old Town, only a short walk away, to seek out some authentic Spanish tapas. These beautiful cobblestoned streets are lined with upscale shops and tempting wine bars. When you’ve had enough, retreat to your tranquil home for a restful night’s sleep.

We love the muted colours here, particularly the sleek, white dining table, which is the perfect place to socialise with friends and family over a bottle of sparkling Txakoli. When evening falls, try your hand at recreating some of your favourite Spanish dishes in the stylish kitchen or head back into town and treat yourself to a meal at one of the city’s Michelin-starred restaurants.
