My name is Avana Andrade and together with my partner Sergio Carbajo, we manage the apartment in Donostia. Sergio is a native of the San Sebastian/Donostia area, while I am from the US, Colorado. We live full time in Los Angeles but spend as much time as we can in the Basque Country. We absolutely love our apartment and take great pride in it because it's the first place we've owned and because the location and the culture are so close to our hearts. We love outdoorsy stuff, cooking, reading, writing, making art and music and travelling.

This property is ideal for those looking for a simple yet well-appointed and cozy apartment in the middle of a gorgeous and vibrant city. The apartment is a recently renovated space in a historic building and provides plenty of space for two people to live comfortably for extended periods of time and host guests for dinner. It features many items from local furniture makers and artists, making a modern, rustic, mid-century feel. We love the place and we hope you do too.

The apartment is moments away from one of the most beautiful beaches in the region as well as a beach across the river 10 minutes walking (Zurriola), the old part of the city (Parta Vieja) where one can find pintxos and numerous world-class dining experiences. There's a farmers market each weekday at la Bretxa, which is also (and originally) a fish market where they now sell local fish and meat products. Of course, there's the normal grocers and supermarkets in town too. There's countless places to grab a delicious coffee or ice cream, sample local wines and ciders. You can also check out the local Basque museum at an old hermitage (San Telmo), go to the aquarium, the nautical museum, or visit the spa directly on the beach, La Perla, all within 10 minutes walking of the apartment. The apartment is also blocks away from bus stops that will take you anywhere you need to go, plus there are train stations also less then 20 minutes walking. There's a lot of shopping nearby as well. In short, the location cannot be topped in terms of its centrality.
