Description Swimming Pool Summer: Barcelona

We adore this home's shared rooftop terrace with its swimming pool and panoramic views over Barcelona. Unwind in a hammock or watch a movie in the open-air cinema. If you prefer to keep up your fitness regime while away, then there's a gym with a sauna too.

This stylish apartment was created by the esteemed interior designer Jaime Beriestain – we love the modernist balcony which overlooks the street below. The living room is lovely and bright, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows. This home has a nursery with a cot as well, so this place is perfect for a family. Create a feast in the kitchen with its high-end appliances, or head out to one of the many eateries on your doorstep.

If you want to explore some of Gaudí's masterpieces, take a twenty-minute walk to Casa Milà. Or, the Fundació Julio Muñoz Ramonet is five minutes on foot and will appeal to lovers of green spaces – the oasis style gardens with elegant fountains and statues are beautiful. But with so much on offer at this luxurious home, will you want to leave?
