Santa Eulària Des Riu, Ibiza, Balearic Islands, Spain

A frontline, sunset and sea-view villa that inspires an Ibicencan state of mind. Perched just a stone's throw from the sands of Cala Vadella, Villa S'Escala sits placed to embrace its unrivalled surrounds. Spend days soaking up Balearic rays from sea-facing sundecks or take a private pathway directly to the sea, where a boat mooring awaits.

Thoughtfully divided for easy island living, there's an effortless flow between bright, whitewashed living spaces. A clean-lined kitchen takes on a contemporary feel, while hints of traditional Ibicencan architecture elevate a laid-back lounge. From the dining area, draw back glass doors to enjoy alfresco drinks or dessert on a secluded balcony. Elsewhere, explore a serene, shaded courtyard, a cosy TV room, and a fully equipped gym.

Living areas form an effortless dialogue between inside and out, giving way to terraces with a tree-top style vantage point. Take in vistas of the sea framed by lofty greenery or descend steps via a private path that leads directly to Cala Vadella beach. Recline on the sandy shores, take a dip in crystal waters, or make use of your own boathouse complete with a mooring dock. If you prefer to cool off in private, the home additionally benefits from pre-approved plans for a swimming pool.

Come evening, ascend to the roof terrace to experience show-stopping sunsets. Watch the sun sink below the horizon, then retire for the day to one of seven considered bedrooms arranged across the main villa. For guests seeking additional privacy, six further bedrooms are split between two separate apartments. Elevated to the rear of the main villa, enjoy exceptional views of the bay here on the sheltered terrace. Set below, a spacious 162m2 garage has capacity for 6 vehicles or could be renovated as a living space or for commercial use.

Situated on the south-west coast of Ibiza, Villa S'Escala enjoys easy proximity to the sea and an array of restaurants and bars. Cala Vadella beach is just moments away, with its fine white sand and crystal-clear waters. Enjoy refreshing dips in the sea before seeking shade at Can Jaume Beach Bar or Nola Ibiza. Cala d'hort and Cala Tarida are just a short drive away, or it's less than thirty minutes to reach Ibiza Town.
