Description Windclass Blue: Barcelona

Located just off the famous Barceloneta beach, Windclass Blue is a solid home for those seeking a relaxing beachside retreat. In the evenings, the Port Vell's nearby promenade is filled with great restaurants and cafes, but if you walk the other way towards Poblenou, you won't be hungry either. This is a simple, luminous home, whose design is focused more on functionality than aesthetics. Still, the beautiful view and comfort make it a good option for a small family or a group of friends.

Home truths:
* People can't access your home without a key, but if you're travelling with children, keep in mind that no key is needed to descend to the reception area
* Aside from the riverside, Barceloneta is a little rough around the edges and a lot of buildings are in need of restoration
* The host can get you a discount at the nearby garage, but parking isn't free
* Neither of the two dining areas are big enough for everyone to sit together
