Modern and bright, this home in Madrid’s centre – just a one-minute walk from Gran Vía – is a treat for those looking to make the most out of the city’s attractions. A laid-back beach vibe sets a relaxing tone in the home’s decor, with wood floors, wicker and macrame ornaments as well as a large leafy houseplant adding to the serene feel. We love how much natural light fills the main living space and the glass doors that lead out onto a Juliet balcony – the ideal spot to perch while enjoying your morning coffee. Evenings call for meals prepared by a private chef (your host can organise this) in the sleek kitchen and dining area, while a peaceful night’s sleep is on the cards in the tropical-accented bedroom. When you’re not chilling out in your chic pad, go out and explore the city. You’re a ten-minute walk from Plaza Mayor, a fifteen-minute stroll from the Royal Palace of Madrid and twenty minutes on foot from the Museo Nacional del Prado. With your host able to organise everything from personal shoppers to chauffeurs, wine tours and tickets to events and museums, there’s no end to the enjoyment and fun in store.
