Lighthouse Jūrmala

Although lots of other hotels in Jūrmala claim to be close to the beach, the Lighthouse is located literally on the sand only steps away from the water. The bad news is that each of its 11 luxurious apartments decorated according to a geographical theme will cost you dearly. That said, if you’re looking for unparalleled views of the sea, excellent service and interior design that makes you feel as if you’re in Africa, Thailand, Indonesia and other exotic locales, not to mention Latvia and Russia, then this could be the place for you. You can also dine in the lobby lounge or one of its terraces in the summer.
