El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou is a small neighbourhood outside of the old historical centre. Aside from easy access to the beaches, several successful startups call these streets their home, which gives you a good idea about the creative atmosphere and its residents. Madame Marina is a relaxed home with a beachside vibe. The furniture does show some wear and tear, but the appliances are all in great condition. The terrace is key to the atmosphere, especially on sunny days, where you can see for miles in all directions.
