We have flights to Barcelona next summer and looking for accommodation recommendations.

Anywhere with access to a pool and walking distance to the beach. We are planning to hire a car

Thank you

Catalonia is diverse, so what else are you looking for?
Cheap and cheerful party town like Lloret. Chic and upmarket: Begur, Calella de Palafrugell, Tamariu. Historic or modern?
Costa Maresme, sometimes called Costa Barcelona and often mis-sold as Costa Brava, has modern resort towns of Calella de la Costa, Santa Susanna, Malgrat etc. Lots of AI hotels set along a strip between the beach and the railway line and is near to Barcelona.
Further afield is the beautiful Costa Brava which is perfect for exploring by car.

BTW Tripadvisors Catalonia forum is one of the most active on the portal and you will get lots of good advice there
