Appartement à Barcelone avec piscine et parking à proximité The Beach

Nice apartment, bright and roomy, well equipped, perfect for families. Nice quiet building, private, supermarket and transport close by.

Heerlijk appartement op redelijke loopafstand van de metro en tram en zelfs te lopen naar het strand. Fijne speelplaats voor kinderen en goede supermarkt dichtbij. Ook de gezellige Rambla del Poblenou is vlakbij, met leuke, betaalbare eetgelegenheden. We hebben geen gebruik gemaakt van het gemeenschappelijke zwembad (erg zout water), maar dit is wel een leuke voorziening voor als het echt warm is.

Helaas hadden we wel wat geluidsoverlast van de verbouwing van tegenoverliggende appartementen. Hierdoor konden we niet rustig op het balkon zitten van 's ochtends vroeg tot 's avonds 20:00. Maar dit is tijdelijk.

Price and reviews are my top reasons for choosing anything and this stay was nothing different.

Although I never met Barbara I felt as if I had made a friend so helpful and prompt was she with responses. As mentioned in previous reviews, Venus is wonderful too even with her limited English she provides a very warm welcome!

Place is perfectly located for restaurants,

Metro, Lidl and the beach, all within an easy, short walk. The Metro system is incredibly easy to use and very cheap, we used it all the time and easily accessed various places as far away as the Nou Camp stadium or close by as my new favourite area, the Gothic quarter (I'd been to Barcelona once before and not discovered it then).

So many different restaurants nearby but we did return to one during our stay, Colom which served exquisite steak and individual paella as opposed to the more commonly available, one to share. Lovely service too, appears to be a family run business?

The big selling point was the pool which we used daily, usually having it to ourselves, unheated but beautiful once you're in!

There was building work going on directly opposite the apartment but being in a city with all the associated noises it did not spoil our experience, in fact it was interesting watching them work as we ate breakfast on the balcony and as we were out most of the day it was not an issue...life does not stop just because some people are on holiday and we understand that. Saying that, with the doors closed and aircon on you wouldn't know it was happening anyway!

Would recommend although maybe not for more than four guests, storage would be limited plus queues for the one bathroom, four adults coped fine though. To be honest, the rates are so competitive, I'd stay again with just two of us.

Thanks Barbara, hope to be a guest of yours again one day.

Apartment was in a great location, 2 minute walk to metro and then 10 minutes to centre of Barcelona. 15 minute walk to local beach. Lots of places to eat in local area. Apartment was modern, clean and well equipped. We loved the balcony and pool. The lady who did the check in did not speak English and we did not speak Spanish but she got the owner on FaceTime from New York to assist, she also walked us to a local supermarket late at night. Would definitely recommend.

Everything went smoothly, from prompt and helpful communications with the owner, easy introduction to the property and how things work, and flexibility on our last day. The apartment was comfortable and well-appointed, though we didn't use any appliances except the fridge. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace each evening but never did use the inviting pool, since we were out and about most of the time!

Poblenou is a wonderful neighborhood, and the apartment location was great for leisurely walks along old streets, good restaurants, and access to the metro and bus system (which were easy to use). Both the apartment and the neighborhood would be good for family visits. Enjoy!
