Finca Encanto

Barefoot luxury. This 17th-century finca is now a sprawling rental villa in Ibiza’s unspoiled northern hillside. Privacy comes naturally.

Laid-back, authentic luxury set against the secluded hills of Ibiza’s north. Hugged by the mountains, this rescued 400-year-old monastery captures the essence of the Balearics. An exclusive estate where you can disconnect and unwind with friends and family. Come to enjoy the modern perks: sauna, massage room and yoga studio. Stay for the peace and the views over pine-clad valleys.

Privacy comes naturally on this sprawling estate, consisting of a main house with six bedroom suites, two further staff suites and a separate staff house – all reached by a long, winding driveway. Gather in the open-plan living area of the main house where honeyed Sabina beams and a rustic fireplace create a warm welcome. Several terraces make this a great place for entertaining.

Interiors were co-created between the homeowners and interior designers Diego Alonso and Alexeja Pozzoni, and decor takes its cue from San Miguel’s undulating countryside. Think original features, knotted juniper beams and muted, earthy palettes. Outside: manicured, Balinese-style gardens.

Los días aquí se pasan mojándose entre las dos piscinas -una de agua salada y otra ecológica natural-, las camas de día y una pérgola a la sombra. El comedor al aire libre tiene capacidad para más de 20 comensales. Invite a sus amigos a almorzar y a pasar la noche bajo las estrellas. Estiraos en el estudio de yoga acristalado o dejad que el estrés desaparezca en la sauna y la sala de masajes. Un experimentado ama de llaves se encarga del resto: la compra de alimentos, las comidas y la limpieza diaria. Si necesita algo más, hágaselo saber a nuestro conserje.

The six bedroom-suites are all soft tones and luxurious cottons on solid-teak beds. Plus, each has scenic private terraces. Two rooms enjoy outdoor bathtubs, and all benefit from marble-clad en-suite bathrooms with deep, freestanding baths. Set in an independent casita, the Lavanda master suite is the real standout, with a private living room, luxurious bathroom and two balconies that gaze across lily ponds to the mountains. Step out with your morning coffee. Private staff accommodation is available.
