Experience a slice of authenticity in an up-and-coming neighbourhood of Barcelona that tourists don't overrun. Positioned in Diagonal Mar, you'll get to experience the best of Barcelona with an added touch of peace and quiet that isn't always possible when staying in a bustling city. In a modern, high-rise building, the apartment provides a tranquil secluded space for some much-needed respite after a day out in the city. Contemporary furnishings in a monochrome colour palette promote practicality, while soft finishings seen through the bedrooms' rugs and velvet feature walls make the home feel more comfortable. The white brick wall in the lounge and the light tones in the rest of the apartment bring life and light from the large patio doors that lead out to the balcony for alfresco dining. If you're in town with work, the reliable fibre-optic wifi ensures a smooth work from home set-up in a location without distractions. Stock up on some local produce from the farmer's market each morning to cook up delicious meals at home, or head out to discover some Catalan cuisine at the neighbourhood's bars, cafes and eateries. Shopping lovers are in luck here, too, as you'll be just a twenty-minute drive away from La Roca Village and its outlet stores. On the way back, you can visit its seaside villages of Costa del Maresme that are all within easy reach of the city.

Local guide
About Diagonal Mar
Barcelona is famous for its sandy beaches whose marine smells and sounds are considered a true luxury in an urban area. The beaches of Diagonal Mar attract many cruise-ships whose guests sip cocktails on the long boardwalk, dotted with clubs and restaurants. But this area is more than its beachfront – a discerning eye will see beyond its biggest attraction and discover a historically rich and soulful neighborhood that feels much less touristy and boasts some of the most popular local hangouts right behind it.
