Letnica – Seaside Apartment 2 by Grand Apartments

Letnica – Seaside Apartment 2 by Grand Apartments Overview

Letnica – Seaside Apartment 2 by Grand Apartments is tucked right on the edge of the Letnica district, a quiet slice of Gdańsk that feels like a secret beach town you stumble upon. The building itself is a modest two‑storey block, its façade a weathered mix of brick and pastel paint that looks like it belongs to a 1950s seaside resort. I remember the front desk, a friendly woman named Aneta, who greeted me with a warm smile and a quick tour of the apartment in Polish—she even slipped a map with the local bus stops marked in red. The check‑in was surprisingly smooth; no long lines, just a quick swipe of my card and a keycard that glowed faintly in the dim hallway. I was handed a small welcome packet that included a list of the best pier-side cafés and the exact parking spot on the street—there’s a free municipal parking lot just a block away, so if you’re driving, you’re in luck.

When I opened the door to the apartment, the first thing that hit me was the salty tang of the sea, carried in by the open windows. The living area is surprisingly spacious for a 2‑bedroom unit, with a comfortable sofa that’s perfect for binge‑watching the local football match on the flat‑screen TV. The kitchen is fully equipped; I could have cooked a full meal, but honestly, I ended up ordering a pizza from the tiny shop on Starowiejska street because the oven’s temperature gauge is a bit unreliable—just a heads‑up for those who love to cook. The bathroom is modern, with a walk‑in shower that has a good water pressure, though the tile is a bit worn from the salty air. The bedroom is a cozy retreat, the bed with a soft quilt that feels like a hug. I slept like a log, except for the occasional gull cry that drifts in from the beach—it’s a small, but charming reminder that you’re literally a stone’s throw from the water.

The real charm of Letnica – Seaside Apartment 2 by Grand Apartments lies in its neighborhood. If you walk down Starowiejska, you’ll find the old fishing pier, a place locals call “Stogi Pier,” which is less crowded than the main Gdańsk harbor and offers a quiet spot to watch the sunrise over the Baltic. A short stroll takes you to the bustling market on the corner of Gdańsk’s Old Town, where you can grab a pierogi from a street vendor and a cup of coffee that’s strong enough to wake the dead. I took a bike out from the apartment’s small storage and rode along the coast to Orłowo; the wind was a bit chilly, but the view of the dunes was worth it. For those who prefer walking, the route is stroller‑friendly, with smooth pavement and plenty of benches to sit and watch the waves. The only downside I noticed was the Wi‑Fi speed, which can lag during peak hours in the summer—so if you’re a digital nomad, you might want to plan your work around the quieter evenings. Overall, Letnica – Seaside Apartment 2 by Grand Apartments feels like a home base that lets you soak up the local vibe while still having a comfortable, well‑furnished space to return to. I’d recommend it for anyone looking to experience Gdańsk’s quieter side without missing out on the city’s lively culture.
