About the accommodation |
|
Enjoy your stay in Barcelona on the Capitán Trueno, aka the “floating apartment,” located in the Port Vell (Old Port), a short walk from Las Ramblas and the historical old town. You’ll be near the historical old town with its ancient Roman walls, Gothic structures such as the stunning Cathedral and Plaza del Rei. You'll enjoy the best of Barcelona and also give yourself an unforgettable and unique experience, staying on the boat where the lapping waves will lull you to sleep every night.
The Capitan Trueno is a restored classic antique boat of 16m with an interior space of 80m2, the ultimate definition of a luxury sailboat. The boat has been designed to maximize the use of space, and you will be amazed and delighted as you discover the many small details which make boat living so unique. This boat sleeps anywhere from 2-6 people and has everything that a land apartment would have: 2 fantastic suites, one with a large double bed, night tables and telephone, and the other with 2 singles which can be pushed together, each with a full bathroom and shower. The modern kitchen has all the amenities, refrigerator, ceramic stovetop, cooker and microwave. The living room is large and comfortable with sofas (one folds out and sleeps 2), table, TV with international stations, DVD and Internet connection on the laptop computer. The covered sun deck has a table perfect for sitting outside and dining or a drink after a long day of walking around the city. The boat has air conditioning, heating, fresh linens (and bathrobes!) and slippers. 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. Please note: the boat cannot be taken out for sailing, and a deposit of 500€ via Visa card is required, and will be credited to your account within 4 days of the end of your stay except in cases of damage to the boat.Watch the curious smiles of your friends when you tell them you’ve spent your stay in Barcelona on a luxury boat. An unbelievable experience!
REFUNDABLE 500€ security deposit will be charged to your Visa card, and will be credited within 4 days of check-out, provided there is no damage. |
