BARCO Paula I

( Barcelona , Spain )

Have an original experience on the Paula I sailboat (not a houseboat), or as we like to call it the “floating apartment,” located in the Port Vell (Old Port) of Barcelona, only 5 minutes from La Rambla and the lively Born area. Built in 2003, the Paula 1, a 12m Bavaria sailboat with an interior space of 48m2, is both a luxury and delight. Discover the ingenuity used to take advantage of the limited space- you will see that your every need has been thought of in the design of the boat, and you will find that boat living is a unique and comfortable experience. You'll also be close to all the points of interest Barcelona has to offer, being located right in Barcelona's beautiful Port Vell. You're surrounded by the best seafood restaurants in Barcelona and close to the Barceloneta beach or just soak in the Spanish sun on the boat's deck. Stroll up La Rambla, a 5 minute walk away, or go out at night in the lively Born area, have a mojito on a terrace bar. On arrival you will be greeted with a welcome cocktail courtesy of your accommodation. In addition you will have the chance of a trip around the port of Barcelona (50€ per voyage).The boat can sleep up to 6 people, with 3 cabins with double beds. You'll have everything which a respectable apartment would have: in your bedroom, closets with hangers, drawers for your clothes, bathroom with shower and a fully equipped kitchen with gas cooker and refrigerator. On top of that there is a dining table, TV, internet, electric heating, and fresh linens are provided (including bathrobe!). You will also have access to the boat community showers and bathrooms, washing machines and dryers. You're only a 15 minute taxi ride from the airport to Port Vell. Watch the curious smiles of your friends when you tell them you've stayed on a 40 foot sailboat. Not many people will be able to say they spent their Barcelona vacation on a luxury boat!
