Drifter

Drifter: Catalonia

Drawing inspiration from, the breezy beaches of Southeast Asia, it's easy to forget that you're actually in the heart of Barcelona from this serene spot. That is of course until you step out onto one of the home's three different balconies. Instead of palm trees and sandy shores, however, you'll get to take in views of the equally charming cobbled square and beautiful Spanish architecture that looks over the street below. The apartment's open-plan layout invites guests to relax in style while catching respite from the buzz of the city. Try your hand at preparing some local tapas or even a homemade paella to serve up at the dining area, or better still – head out to try out the local cuisine at the bars and restaurants within walking distance. Positioned just a fifteen-minute leisurely stroll away from Barceloneta beach, you'll be within easy reach of the ocean breeze after all. Come sunset, there's nothing better than drifting away to the soothing sound of the waves lapping into the shore over a glass of Sangria at one of the beach bars. You're welcome.




Home truths:

*There is a shared entrance to the building through the main foyer/corridor *Parking in Barcelona can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the convenient public transport system – you'll have the choice of many different bus routes, metro stops and tramways nearby
*There is only air conditioning in some rooms
