Heavens Above: Balearic Islands

Love is in the air, and not just because it's spelled out around the pool. High up in the hills and looking down over the sea, you'll instantly fall in love with this sparkling white palace.

Set in an exclusive gated community, with Ibiza Town's vibrant centre for its playground, this place is a lesson in chic minimalist design. Lounge in the luxury of a Balinese sun bed or sink into the inviting waters of the pool, keeping your glasses full thanks to an outdoor bar.

With the optional extras of breakfast service and private chefs, you don't need to lift a finger while you concentrate on the matter in hand – relaxation.

Everything here is dominated by the view by day, but at night the pool area comes to life with an LED multicolour system, which you can tailor to suit your mood.

Inside, the large round salon – with arched windows, curved sofas and fireplace – is the ideal spot to gather for dinner and drinks. Affording incredible views and lit by the orange hues of sunset, it's the perfect hosting space.

Home truths:
* We suggest hiring a car if you want to explore the depths of the island
* The villa is set across two floors, connected via a staircase
* Your host can provide free beach essentials, such as towels and umbrellas, for a trip to the coast
