Draped Delight: Catalonia

City slickers who like their apartments with a healthy dose of style will fall in love with this decadent home. Located in the Gracia district of Barcelona, it's the ideal place for visitors keen to explore the city and live like a local during their stay.

The interior combines modern luxury with a sense of tranquility – the earthy tones, natural textures, and lavish fabrics create a soothing ambiance where you can kick back and relax between your adventures. Budding chefs will love practicing their Spanish dishes in the kitchen, before serving up their creations either inside or outside on the patio. The garden space is a real treat in the city where you can chill on a sofa with a good book. And, there's even a shared swimming pool – so, when the temperature rises you can cool off with a refreshing dip.

Step onto the street, and you'll find yourself in a laid-back area full of independent shops, local bars, and a range of restaurants serving everything from local fare to Peruvian, Mexican, and Japanese cuisine. Culture fans will be happy that the iconic Sagrada Familia is just an eighteen-minute walk away, and Casa Mila is even closer. And, when you want to visit the Gothic Quarter and the waterfront, simply hop on the metro to arrive there in around twenty minutes.
