With marble floors, ample space to play around with, and panoramic windows with some of the best views Barcelona has to offer, The Beach Lookout is perfect for those who will appreciate its majestic nature. The central sights won't be accessible on foot, but travellers who love a bit of sea breeze (which, you'll be pleased to know, does reach the terrace) will quickly fall head over heels for the nearby Platja Llevant. Home truths: * We thought that the limescale in the bathrooms needs a bit of love * We spotted a few scuff marks on the living room walls and scratches on the kitchen cupboards * A bit of a pet peeve, but – to get to the beach, you'll need to cross a busy road
