“Steps from El Sardinero Beach, the apartments stand out for configurations that suit families or groups; many have private terraces with sea views, which I consider a real plus. With full kitchens and perks like free casino entry, it strikes a pleasing balance of value and convenience, well served by public transport for jaunts into Santander; in my view, a solid choice.”
