What to know about renting long term apartments in Barcelona

As the capital of Spain’s autonomous region of Catalonia, Barcelona is the jewel of Spanish Mediterranean cities. Barcelona has long been a destination that draws in thousands of visitors, both tourists and those seeking to call the sunkissed streets of Barcelona their home. Welcoming them to Spain’s second city is not only the fantastic weather but the culture, food, people, and overall Mediterranean coastal living. Long-term rental apartments can be found all over Barcelona, from the beachfront, through its very center, and out into the hills surrounding the city. These long-term apartments have been made out of old Casas Señoriales, which are like Spain’s stately homes. Others have been converted from old industrial properties, while many are brand new high-rise apartment blocks. Securing a property out in this Mediterranean paradise used to be a very involved process, requiring much back and forth between potential tenants and landlords - this is something that can be very time-consuming when you’re moving to Barcelona. Luckily, websites like Homelike can streamline this process for you and make your move a whole lot easier. Not only can you tailor your apartment search to your own wants and needs, but you can also do it all online before you set foot in the Catalan city.
