Boho Barcelona

Boho Barcelona: Catalonia

For a laid-back bohemian vibe in Barcelona, look no further. This stylish apartment is the king of cool, with a balcony that serves as the jewel in the crown.

The interior is chic and relaxed, with neutral shades blending with natural woods and wicker, and soft furnishing adding texture. Stepping through the door of this home, you instantly feel your stresses melt away. And that’s before you’ve even cracked open a chilled beer on the balcony.

A lovely open-plan living and dining space begs for entertaining, whether it’s everyone sitting around the breakfast bar first thing, or rounding off your evenings with a nightcap together. There’s heaps of space and seating, so your downtime really does feel restful, however hectic your days.

A twenty-four-minute walk will take you to Casa Batlló, where you can get to know everything Gaudi. On the way back, you’ll pass by Casa Mila, another of his masterpieces within walking distance – it’s twenty minutes away. If you like to explore on foot, all of the hot spots are within an hour but you can easily hop in a cab to give your legs a break.

Plaza Espana is twelve minutes away by car and is easily one of Barcelona’s most iconic sights. Sip coffee and take in the history of the square – there are also plenty of restaurants nearby if you’re looking for lunch. If you need a break from the heat, head to the beach for a dip in the sea. A cab from the apartment to Barceloneta Beach takes twenty-three minutes, yet it feels like a different part of the country entirely.

A break in Barcelona is always a good idea, and this apartment is a stellar choice when it comes to accommodation. Is there anything better than watching the sun set with a chilled glass of something delicious from a balcony?
