Carbis Bay Luxury 3 Bed Penthouse Apartment with Sea Views Parking Sauna Balcony
Relax and unwind to the constant sound of the ocean at Serena, a stunning luxury duplex penthouse apartment in the heart of Carbis Bay. Boasting breathtaking sea and beach views from two of the bedrooms, the living room and kitchen, Serena offers a truly special coastal escape just moments from one of Cornwall's most beautiful beaches.
Perfectly positioned within an exclusive gated development of just 27 apartments and two houses, Serena is widely regarded as one of the finest properties in the development. Thoughtfully furnished with comfort and luxury in mind, every detail has been carefully considered to ensure an unforgettable stay.
While Serena is wonderfully romantic for couples seeking a seaside retreat, it is also exceptionally family-friendly. The beach is quite literally on your doorstep, making it easy to spend carefree days building sandcastles, paddling in the turquoise waters, exploring rock pools or enjoying family picnics on the sand before wandering back to the apartment for lunch or an afternoon rest. Parents will love the convenience of being so close to the beach, while children will enjoy the freedom of having one of Cornwall's most spectacular stretches of coastline just moments away.
For those attending or celebrating a wedding, Serena is ideally located for the renowned Carbis Bay Estate and its collection of luxury wedding venues. Whether you're part of the bridal party, attending as guests, or looking for a beautiful place to stay before and after the celebrations, the apartment provides luxurious accommodation within easy walking distance of the beach and wedding venues, allowing you to leave the car behind and simply enjoy the occasion. One of Serena's most unique features is its private Nordic sauna, located within the spectacular master suite. After a day exploring the coast, enjoy a soothing sauna session before sinking into bed and falling asleep to the sound of the waves. It's the perfect place to relax, recharge and indulge in a little wellness during your stay.
The apartment benefits from its own reserved parking space, a valuable addition in this sought-after area, while the famous St Ives branch line railway is nearby, offering one of the most scenic train journeys in the UK. In just a few minutes you can be exploring the cobbled streets, independent boutiques, galleries and harbour-front restaurants of St Ives without the hassle of parking.
No matter the season, Serena is a destination in itself. Enjoy breakfast on the balcony as the sun rises over the bay, watch the waves roll onto the beach below, or retreat to the magnificent upper-floor master suite with its private Nordic sauna and panoramic sea views. The apartment is the only three-bedroom property available to rent within this gated development and the only apartment boasting two beach-view bedrooms, making it a truly unique and sought-after place to stay. Whether you're planning a family beach holiday, attending a wedding, celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a luxurious coastal escape, Serena offers the perfect combination of location, comfort and unforgettable sea views.
