As I Sipped a Sangria

Part of a sought-after new development, this stylishly modern apartment has been finished to an impeccably high standard – offering a range of high-end amenities as well as access to the communal facilities of the resort, including a pretty swimming pool area. The charming and quintessentially Spanish village of Cancelada is just 500 metres away, whilst the nearest beach is reachable in around five minutes, so you won't have to venture far to see why visitors continue to flock to this sunny part of Spain.

The interior exudes an easy, typically Spanish charm with a twist as the relatively understated decor is elevated by quirky, personalised touches that give it a truly unique, warm character. Although it's not right on the beach (though we can spy those beautiful blue waters just around two kilometres away), this home certainly has a laid-back, beachy feel to it.

Step outside and the inviting garden acts as an extension of the living space – bringing the inside out and creating the perfect environment for some Mediterranean alfresco living with its wealth of welcoming seating areas. Kick back and enjoy a little me-time as you soak up the sun, or come together for an evening of quality time spent playing games, or simply sitting around chatting with plenty of good food and lots of great Spanish wine. Anyone for Sangria?
