Sitting within a large, flower-filled garden on an Ibizan hillside, this villa is as far from the famously hedonistic side of the White Isle as you can imagine. Here, it's easy to imagine long and leisurely afternoons gliding through the infinity swimming pool, enjoying alfresco meals or gazing out at views of the Med from the terrace.

So far, so idyllic – and there are plenty more ways to relax behind the home's stone walls. The sunken lounge complete with a wood-burning fireplace is an especially cosy spot, as is the two-person bathtub in the master bathroom. We also like the design throughout, which feels a lot homelier and down-to-earth than a lot of other addresses on the island – ideal if extravagance isn't your thing.

When you want to see a little more of Ibiza, the island's main town is only a short drive away if you ever restaurants and a touch of nightlife. Similarly, the beaches of Salinas and Cala Jondal are easily reachable when the call of the sea becomes too hard to resist.
