Living in La Barceloneta means enjoying the Mediterranean in the heart of the city. In this iconic and compact neighborhood—covering 131.40 hectares, with over 15,000 inhabitants and a vibrant urban life—converge the beach, the marina, and a cosmopolitan atmosphere where everything is within walking distance: the seaside promenade, Port Vell, and a renowned gastronomic offer featuring historic seafood restaurants and open-air tapas terraces.
The urban history of La Barceloneta gives it character and distinction. Born on land reclaimed from the sea starting in the 15th century, its current layout was designed in 1749 by engineer Juan Martín Cermeño: an urban model with streets parallel to the port, narrow blocks, and housing designed to maximize light, ventilation, and unobstructed views. This heritage is reflected today in the luxury properties in Barcelona that this unique maritime neighborhood preserves.
