Comfortable, one bedroom apartment with sea views located in the Barceloneta district of Barcelona. The apartment is located on the third floor (no lift) of a renovated building right beside the beach. It was redecorated at the beginning of 2003 and new furniture was bought. There´s one bedroom with a double bed and in the living room the sofa can be converted into a bed for two people. The kitchen and bathroom are also well designed and fully equipped.
The area of Barceloneta is famous for being close to the beach and also it´s many seafood restaurants. At the same time it´s within easy walking distance to the Gothic Quarter and the Born area, there are also good communications by bus and metro.
Notes: Possibly the one drawback to the apartment is the stairwell. It has been repainted but the steps are quite steep and the apartment is on the third floor.
Please note:
For arrivals between 21.00hrs there is a supplement of 25€ to be paid directly to the owner on arrival. |
Note: The owner only accepts a minimum of 7 days for the following dates:
Mobile World Congress: 08 February- 16 February 2008 |

La Barceloneta is one of the most animated neighbourhoods within Barcelona’s city centre; this is thanks to its long golden sand beaches. There is always something going on. If you get off at the Barceloneta metro station (L4, yellow line), you should visit Palau de Mar, which used to serve as a storehouse to tradesmen who arrived at the harbour of the city.
Nowadays, it hosts the Museum of the History of Catalonia. Walk from there along the Passeig Joan de Borbó towards the sea and you will pass along the best seafood restaurants of Barcelona. At the end of this street you will reach the Mediterranean Sea at Plaça del Mar. From this point on, Barcelona's famous 5 kilometres of beaches begins where plenty of beach bars, restaurants and hot clubs are situated. Enjoy the sun and the gorgeous sight of the sea there! If you like practising sports, you have the chance to play beach volley and rent a bicycle or a small boat.
La Barceloneta was built in 1753, with its original intended purpose to host fishermen and sailors who had been dislodged from the Ciutadella in Ribera quarter. Since then, La Barceloneta has memorized the old atmosphere of the city with its small balconies full of hanging clothes and plants along with its tapas-bars and seafood restaurants. Its location is excellent. The quarter is surrounded by the old harbour (Port Vell) rightward, Vila OlĂmpica leftward and the Born Quarter and the Gothic Quarter northward and only 15 minutes by foot away from Las Ramblas.
The new complex Moll d'Espanya is located next to Port Vell, where the Aquarium of Barcelona with its impressive amount of 450 sea species is situated. Additionally there is also the Maremagnum, an impressing mall which is formidable to go shopping.
Walking along the Rambla del Mar you will reach Plaza de Colón. There you can take a “golondrina” (small motorboats), which depart regularly from this location. These “golondrinas” will provide you with unprecedented views and outlooks of the city (the trip in its entirety lasts about and hour and a half).
It’s really amazing that the quarter had managed to preserve its authentic nature in such a city as Barcelona. You will be captivated by the contrast between the narrow streets accompanied by the sea breeze with the modernity of the new Barcelona. This is due to the fact that the city was strongly remodelled to fit the theme and occasion of the Olympic Games back in 1992. |
