If you can’t decide between a city break and a beach retreat, this apartment might just be what you’ve been looking for. This apartment in central Barcelona is perfectly situated for all the city sights yet the Indonesian-style decor and cabana-like patio make it feel like a secluded Balinese oasis. The cherry on top – the beach is actually only a seventeen-minute drive away. The apartment can be found in a fun and lively neighbourhood known for its incredible Gaudi architecture – Casa Mila is just seven minutes away on foot. There are great restaurants and fabulous boutiques at every turn – you’re at the heart of the action here, though the apartment itself remains a tranquil hideaway. After busy days seeing the sights, it’s a real joy to return here to sit on the terrace and sip cava. For a romantic moment à deux, sip your drinks on the private patio off the main bedroom, which looks and feels remarkably like a beachside cabana. In the morning, meander over to Boqueria Market to pick up some fabulous local produce for picnics. Find the best ham, cheese, and fruit to pair with freshly baked bread, and take a picnic to Ciutadella Park, twenty-four minutes away. With so much on your doorstep here, the most difficult part of your stay will be choosing what to do each day – if you can drag yourselves out of the comfortable beds, that is.
