Marítim

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city in this compact but well-equipped apartment, just a five-minute walk from the beach. While it’s not the biggest and it lacks privacy due to its proximity to neighbouring buildings, this is an ideal spot for a couple seeking a coastal stay. An added bonus is the large rooftop terrace, shared with the building’s other residents, just perfect for alfresco dining or a spot of sunbathing. For days in the city, the nearest metro is just six minutes away.

Home truths:
*Parking in Barcelona can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to public transport where possible. Selva de Mar Metro station is a six-minute walk from the apartment.
*You'll have access to the rooftop terrace here. It's shared with the building's other residents.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
*This apartment overlooks neighbouring homes. The views aren't the most inspiring and it lacks a little privacy.
*There are no bedroom curtains here to block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
*Your host asks that you respect the neighbours and keep noise to a minimum between 10pm and 9am.
