Whether you're in town to see an FC Barcelona match, dine at Enigma, or see the soon-to-be-finished Sagrada Família by legendary local architect Antoni Gaudí, you know how picturesque Barcelona is as a city, perched on the Mediterranean Sea. El Palace Barcelona found a way to deliver unparalleled views of the city and is about to launch its newest luxury experience: presenting guests with a unique way to see and experience Barcelona and the surrounding area—on board the hotel’s new private speedboat—Sea Ray SDX 270.
Guests staying at El Palace Barcelona will be chauffeur driven to the Marina Seca de Marina Vela Barcelona, where they will board the luxury 8.28meter (27 foot) speedboat. Once onboard, the boat’s route will be at their discretion, depending on whether they would like to enjoy a full day at sea, take a boat ride for a couple of hours, or soak up the city’s gorgeous sunsets from the sea.
El Palace Barcelona’s concierge team organizes every detail to ensure a smooth boating experience from arrival to departure. Possible itineraries include a boat ride south to the coastal town of Sitges to discover this colorful town known for its glitzy beach crowd, lively nightlife, Mediterranean beaches, compact old town, and seafront promenade lined with mansions. Guests can also float in the warm Mediterranean and find their favorite spot to jump in before enjoying the gourmet picnic basket provided by El Palace Barcelona’s award-winning culinary team. For the ultimate sundowner experience, guests can enjoy El Palace Barcelona’a signature sunset cruise and see the lights of Barcelona sparkle before their eyes while enjoying local cheeses, charcuterie and Ruinart champagne.
