Located in De Haan, just a short walk from the beach, this modern apartment offers a nautical Narnia from which to enjoy the delights of the Belgian coast. With its wood floors, walls of glass letting in ample natural light, as well as its sea-inspired decor, you’ll have no trouble easing into a relaxing mood and letting the beauty of the area’s nature wash over you. Start mornings with breakfast on the wraparound balcony as you soak up some sun and listen to the rolling waves in the distance and spend evenings curled up on the sofa with a glass of wine. We love the open-plan kitchen with its beautifully tiled backsplash and funky Smeg fridge, while the bedroom is an ode to coastal bliss with its feature wall and maritime ornaments. Factor in the sleek bathroom with its inviting rainfall shower, and you’ve got everything you need for a perfectly carefree stay. Outside of your home, you’ve got the sands of Strand De Haan just 100 metres away, as well as restaurants, bakeries and bars within 500 metres of your home. For active types, there’s a surf and sailing school 500 metres away too, as well bicycle rental and... a tennis court 800 metres from your door.
