From Arch to Arch

From Arch to Arch: Balearic Islands

Bright and open, this Palma home isn’t just a gorgeous haven for beach lovers, it’s also a portal to some of the most beautiful hiking trails. Explore this Balearic island by enjoying sun-drenched beach days on Platja de Can Cap de Bou, or by walking scenic routes like Camí Boquer and Vall de Bóquer.

Back home, you can bask in the sun by claiming a sun lounger and spending the day between tanning and dipping into the private pool to cool down. Stay hydrated with an ice-cold drink and read a holiday romance novel from under the brim of a floppy hat.

Dine alfresco in the loggia and head around the front of the house to find a comfortable spot in which to enjoy evening drinks and nibbles. Most of the bedrooms lead out onto the balcony, so enjoy sunrises and fresh air out there as you nurse cups of coffee.

Inside, you can fling the doors open to let fresh air into this amply lit space – spend lazy evenings watching movies or playing board games here, nipping to the kitchen every now and again to top up your drinks.
