Tucked into a vibrant new-build apartment just steps from the beach, this one-bedroom retreat is designed for two guests who want colour, comfort, and a front-row seat to one of Belgium's most spirited coastal cities. Living space Inside, the apartment leans into personality. Cheerful, colourful décor fills the living area with warmth and energy, while large windows draw in natural light and keep the mood bright. A flat-screen TV and high-speed Wi-Fi mean you're covered whether you want a quiet evening in or need to stay connected during your trip. Ample storage throughout ensures the space stays comfortable and uncluttered, and elevator access makes arrival with luggage effortless. Sleeping arrangements The bedroom offers a cosy double bed dressed in fresh linens, with room-darkening shades so you can sleep in at your leisure. The space is calm, restful, and set up with everything you need for a proper night's sleep after a day exploring the coast. Kitchen & dining The fully equipped kitchen handles everything from a quick breakfast to a full meal - you'll find a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, hot water kettle, and all the cookware, dishes, and cooking basics you need. A dining table inside makes mealtimes comfortable, and the terrace extends your options outdoors when the weather invites it. Bathroom The contemporary bathroom features a shower, hot water, hair dryer, and shampoo - clean, functional, and well-appointed for two guests. Towels, bed linens, soap, and toilet paper are all provided. Laundry A washer and dryer are available on-site, handy for longer stays or if you want to pack light and refresh your wardrobe mid-trip. Terrace The standout feature of this apartment is the terrace, where sea views stretch out before you. Whether you're starting the morning with a coffee in the salt air or winding down as the sun drops toward the horizon, it's a genuinely special spot - especially during the quieter, crisper months when the Belgian coast has a different kind of beauty. Parking A private underground garage is included, with an EV charging station available on-site - a rare and practical touch for guests arriving by electric vehicle. Location Oostende punches well above its size. Long known as the Queen of Seaside Resorts, it's a city that stays alive year-round - one of the only coastal cities in Belgium that does. From the apartment, you're within easy reach of the beach and promenade, the Mercator floating museum, the Mu.ZEE art collection, and the striking Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. Market day falls every Thursday, and the city's restaurant and bar scene runs well into the evening. In winter, the Christmas market and ice rink on the Grote Markt give Oostende a completely different energy - one that's worth experiencing in its own right. The city is easily reached by both car and train.
