This large and spacious apartment is situated on the ground floor with views to the gardens, sea and within walking distance to the communal swimming pool.

The terrace, which spans the width of the apartment, offers you the opportunity to wine and dine whilst taking in the sea view and enjoying the beautiful sunsets in the evening. The lounge area, like the outdoor terrace, is south facing with floor to ceiling patio windows ensuring maximum light and terrific views. There are two beds in the bedroom and a further four sofa beds in the lounge area.
