Barcelona has recently become one of the most popular tourist and business destinations which makes it your job of finding a centrally located accommodation a real challenge.
This is one reason why short term apartments are becoming the choice of stay in Barcelona. Akaza, is an agency based in Barcelona, specialising in short term apartment rentals in Barcelona.

The bathroom and the kitchen are fully equipped. Just one stones throw away from the beach; the apartment is the ideal place to discover Barcelona because of its location in the centre, and in the same time to enjoy a summer life lying on the beach under the amazing weather of Barcelona.[more details]
Akaza would like to present you a new service we offer at our agency. We at Akaza think that people who book an apartment for their stay in cities like Barcelona like their freedom, waking up whenever they like, making a home cooked meal in their apartment, explore the city and do great outdoor activities...
We might be wrong of course, but for those people, whose heartbeat is increasing by reading this, check out the latest thing. If you have enough of shopping, bars and beaches in Barcelona, why not consider an amazing hot air balloon flight with us in the province of Barcelona!
The Barcelona area offers some of the most beautiful and magical landscapes in Europe, the ideal setting for a great day during your holiday. This outdoor adventure will be an unforgettable experience for everybody, from children to adults. Our crew consists of excellent pilots, who often compete in European and international balloon competitions!
Flights will take place in the mornings from Cardedeu in El Valles Oriental, only 30 minutes outside of Barcelona. Our service includes transportation from the centre of Barcelona to the launching pad in Cardedeu. After arriving at the site, the program will be explained and our professional team will prepare and inflate the balloon. At that time we will all be geared up to take off with our balloon. The flight will last 1h30, enough time to enjoy the freedom and tranquility of floating through the air and to make some unique pictures of Barcelona and Catalonia. After the flight you will receive your official flight certificate and we will have a ´surprise` breakfast, after which we will return to Barcelona.
This outdoor activity offers intimate rides from 2 to 8 people, but also organizes flights for up to 100 people for events and incentives.
Price: 160 Euros / person
Duration: 4 hours
Available: all the year

Akaza is a very dynamic company with a team that is always seeking for new services and fresh ideas. However, we are always very focused on what we do best; rent out beautiful apartments in the old fishermen's neighbourhood Barceloneta.
Another valuable point of interest to see in Barcelona is definitely CaixaForum located in Montjuic. Not only the building itself is worth seeing, the architecture design is amazing, but also the idea behind this foundation is very interesting. CaixaForum is a cultural centre created by Caixa d'Estalvis i Pensions de Barcelona. The building was constructed in a modernist style and occupies former factory Fabrica Casaramona.
This month there are several exhibitions going on and there are all free. CaixaForum operates as a foundation and supports young or independent artists and offers various projects. We would like to focus your attention on this month's premiere of Federico Fellini's famous photo exhibition.
