Can Amigo

Hugged by rolling hills, this five-bedroom villa for rent pairs Californian style with effortless escapism.

Skilfully designed by the visionaries at Romano Arquitectos, Ibicencan character gets a Californian accent at Can Amigo. Behind a striking modernist façade, sprawling open-plan living areas set the tone for laid-back living.

Bringing life and light to poured concrete floors, sunlight streams through expansive glass screens. Designed for drifting between spaces, there’s a seamless flow through the kitchen, dining and lounge areas. An effortless intertwining of old and new, Sabina-wood cladding is combined with sleek contemporary furnishings, while wall-to-wall windows create barely-there boundaries with the valley beyond.

In the glass-walled principal bedroom suite, smooth stone floors are juxtaposed with a panelled wooden wall. Suspended from the ceiling, a floating fireplace adds a space-age touch. Hidden at the rear of the room, a freestanding bathtub invites long evening soaks, or head to the en suite bathroom for picturesque views of the landscape as you shower. Four further bedroom suites each enjoy generous proportions and views worth waking up for.

Outside, luxury day beds cluster around the large pool. Post-swim, head to one of the chill-out areas or the al fresco summer kitchen, barbecue and dining table decorated in the dappled shade of trees. On cooler evenings, work up a sweat in the gym or on the football pitch, or make the most of the private cinema with movie marathons. Ideal for those with children, there’s also an outdoor children’s playhouse.
