This light, bright finca makes an ideal Ibizan retreat. Set within seven acres of forest, ancient trees surround you as you while away the day on a sunny poolside lounger. Kids can frolic on the lawn or splash in the heated saltwater pool. Cool off in the outdoor shower before firing up the barbecue in the evening for dinner under the stars. Interiors have an eclectic yet unmistakably Ibizan feel; books adorn the shelves and trendy, interesting art hangs on every wall. The kitchen is well kitted out, but there are chefs available for hire if cooking’s not your thing. Head to the lounge to chill in front of the Apple TV. Bedroom-wise, all are excellent options – but bag yourself the top-floor master bedroom with en-suite and private roof terrace if you can. Your closest beach is Santa Eulalia (5 km), where the sea is calm and clear blue. The shops and cafes of Ibiza Town are a short drive away. With a home like this though, you’d be forgiven for opting to stay in.
