With wicker furniture, wrought-iron lampshades and colourful rugs on polished, tiled floors, this is a cheerful, homely kind of place. It’s an apartment with a fully equipped kitchen, a large terrace with a seating area and use of a pleasant outdoor pool that’s perfect for a refreshing dip. The same is true, of course, of the Mediterranean Sea, which lies off the beautiful sandy Los Boliches beach, right beside the hotel.

8. Solago Castillo, for views of Sohail Castle

Apartment

It’s not every day you wake up to views of a historic castle, but that’s exactly the vista that awaits you from the terrace of this apartment, which sits beside Sohail Castle. The view inside isn’t bad either, with lovely wooden beams and furniture, and plush rugs offset by a thoroughly modern kitchen and bathrooms. There’s also a large terrace that’s enclosed by glass, meaning you can enjoy it even on the chilliest winter day.

9. Apartamento en los Boliches, for a home from home
