Golden Alarm Clock

Golden Alarm Clock: Catalonia

Sitges beach is a radiant haven of good vibes and picturesque views, and you're just 100 metres away. Such is the proximity to the beach, you can almost smell the crisp, sea air and hear the soothing sounds of the waves from the master bedroom. It's the perfect alarm clock to wake up to each morning.

When you're bathing on the golden sands, you don't have to worry about forgetting your towel or refreshments – you can nip home and back in less than five minutes. On your way back to the apartment, check out the top-rate seafood restaurants and trendy clothes stores dotted around the town.

Alternatively, you can pop into one of the inviting shops to pick up some goodies to enjoy back at the apartment. Rustle up some paella in the kitchen or share small tapas dishes on the cute dining table. Whatever dish you settle down with in the evening, complement it with a rich glass of Rioja wine or fruity jug of sangria for a taste of the local lifestyle.



Home truths:
* Your host can provide a free cot and highchair for little ones
* Your host asks to be respectful of noise after 10pm
* The apartment is quite small and compact, so you'd struggle to host more than four people if you wanted to invite guests for dinner
* The apartment is on the first floor and only accessible by stairs
* Although there are two double beds, we feel the size of the apartment is best suited to three guests
* There is free parking available, but it's a fifteen-minute walk away from the home
* The home is in a busy area, but it doesn't face the street so it remains quiet
