GaudÃ’s Historic Casa Vicens Will Host Two Lucky Airbnb Guests This Fall
Architect Antoni GaudÃ’s very first architectural commission was designed in 1885 as a luxury retreat for a local family, and it?s been in private hands ever since. But this fall, for the first time ever, Barcelona?s Casa Vicens will open its doors to two Airbnb guests for an overnight stay. The cost" A single euro (about $1.19). The one and only nightly stay went to the lucky folks who happened to get through to the booking page first when it opened in July. The rest of us will just have to live vicariously through the photos and videos of the listing, imagining what it would be like to temporarily take up residence inside.
?We are excited to give guests the opportunity to experience this house as Gaudà designed it ? as a nature oasis,? says Masferrer i Fons. ?We are deeply committed to the preservation of GaudÃ?s cultural heritage, and it will be a great pleasure to share the building?s secrets and rich history with whoever books.? The museum will be closed to the public during the stay, so the guests will enjoy having Casa Vicens all to themselves. After their tour, they?ll be treated to a GaudÃ-inspired Michelin star menu in the dining room, followed by a nightcap in the smoking room. To top it all off, they?ll be sleeping in the most lavish bedroom of the house, the private chambers of the Vicens family. In the morning, they?ll enjoy a full Mediterranean breakfast in the private city garden.
If you’re sad you missed this once-in-a-lifetime op...
