Pearly White

Pearly White: Balearic Islands

Rather fittingly for a villa in a location known as the White Isle, that colour does play a pretty large role in the interior design. Stark walls, ceilings and floor, plus dazzling furnishings, make for an angelic ambience and a blank canvas against which the sparse selection of black furnishings really stand out.

With so much effort put into the interior, it can almost feel like a shame that you'll be spending so much time outdoors here. The infinity swimming pool and adjoining hot tub are as sleek as they are refreshing and offer beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea. You can also gaze out at this vista from the terrace, complete with a stylish pergola in case you're ever in need of a little shade.

There are a couple of other features that really impressed us. For starters, the private gym will help you keep up your fitness regimen while you're away from home, but there's also a home cinema set-up and games equipment on the side terrace if you want to keep things laid-back. We're also fond of the elegant freestanding bathtub in the master bedroom, positioned right next to the floor-to-ceiling windows and ripe for sunset-watching.

As if that wasn't enough, the location is pretty excellent, too. Although the bright lights and excitement of Ibiza Town are mere minutes away in the car, there's a peaceful feel to the immediate area around the home and direct access to a crowd-free cove from which you can go swimming.
