It's hard to find a home as close to the beach as this one, which makes The Golden View so special. The communal areas open up to a bright view of the sea, and most of the cafes and restaurants in the area are appropriately marine-themed – so get ready for lots of seafood and paella. The interior is simple but comfortable with a unique layout that offers plenty of spots to hang out in and enjoy the view.

- No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
- Hosts we know – With track records of high-quality hosting.
- Rated ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot – Exceptional service before, during and after your stay.

Local guide
About El Poblenou
El Poblenou is on the rise. Nested between the beach and the old town, it’s a fusion of old and new architecture, quickly becoming the technological heart of Barcelona. It’s a lot more tranquil than most parts of the city, but its list of attractions is growing fast. Scattered between buzzing shops that embrace its rough-luxe feel are some of the most loved and recommended eateries in the whole city. The closer you get to the beach, the more they turn into more traditional tapas restaurants and bars that let you mingle with the locals and travellers alike.
