Photos and Description of the Barcelona vacation apartment rental 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, sleeps 2 (or 3-4 with kids on sofa bed)

Beautiful, little apartment in typical Barceloneta 1900 building 100m from the beach and sea and with a view of the beach/sea from the balcony. (Lateral view) Air-conditioned, fully restored apartment with modern bathroom, kitchen, etc, redecorated in January 2005. The building façade is also restored and the staircase was painted in August 2003. The balcony is large enough to sit out on and take breakfast in the sunshine, with a lateral view to the beach, just one block away. This property offers the amazing combination of being in a city centre with all the facilities and attractions on hand -and also just a minute's walk (if that) from the sea and a long, sandy beach. You are surrounded by great seafood restaurants in an area that is safe and quiet at night. If you want late bars and discos they are just 15 minutes walk away. Other sites: Picasso Museum and city park, El Born, zoo, marina 5-15 minute's walk. Ramblas and Barri-Gotic: 15 - 20 minutes walk.

Located in Barceloneta one of the city centre's most charming and authentic 'barrios'. The area was built in the late 1800s as Barcelona's fishing port and was the first area to be built outside the medieval city walls. Although the fishing port and boats are now hidden by piazzas, yachts and sand, the area still boasts many great (Barcelona's best) seafood restaurants and tapas bars - especially alongside the marina front. Barceloneta is full of Spanish and Catalan charm and idiosyncracies, washing drapes over the balconies and old ladies chat from their windows to their neighbours across the street. Barceloneta is very much part of the old city centre 'Ciutat Vella' and is nestled between the beach and El Born, the most upmarket old city centre district which is a 10 minute walk away for many classy restaurants and bars. Walking to the Ramblas is a 15 minute stroll across the harbour front - or take the cable car. The medieval city is also a 10- 15 minute walk.

Rental Rates for this vacation apartment rental in Barcelona, Spain

No rental rates available - please contact the owner

Additional information about rental rates

  • These prices are for 2 people. The apartment can sleep 2 further children on the sofabed (1.5x1.4m) or one further adult. But really we feel that the apartment is small for so many people. Also we have removed the door to the bedroom for easier access so there is not so much privacy for 3 or 4 people. If you feel you would like to sleep 3 or 4 for a short stay and because the apartment is just a base then that's fine and the price is 20€ more per night. Don't bring too much luggage!
  • All included - no extra charges for anything (cleaning, heating, laundry, taxes, welcome pack etc)
    Extras: beach towels or cot are charged at 15€ one off charge.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
I have so many glowing write-ups from previous guests but it seems disingenuous to include them here - take a look at the visitors book when you arrive or I have kept some e-mails which I can send on with the guests permission.
This is one of two apartments that I have on holiday-rentals and one of eleven in Barcelona. It is my full time job to look after the apartments and I employ two cleaners a handy man and a second in command for when I am away or can't meet you due to being at another apartment. Many guests return and all recommend their friends. Discounts are offered to repeat customers.
