Prickly Pears

From the stone gardens planted with cacti to the grounds filled with lavender, citrus, and olive trees, this home is a Mediterranean hideaway. Despite only being about ten minutes' drive from Cala Comte, the stay feels like a slice of privacy thanks to its huge plot. Sunbathing by the pool, chilling out in the BBQ area, or pulling some yoga moves on the patio are all sound tracked with not much more than the buzz of the countryside. The spot's interiors are a cool nod to Ibiza, with white-washed walls, brushed concrete, and the occasional pop of a piece of modern art. The downstairs area flows from the steel industrial kitchen to a larger living space, and finally out to the finca-style terrace, with its terracotta colours and low-hanging rattan lamps. A good night sleep is pretty much guaranteed thanks to super king-size beds in every room, though there might be a tussle for rooms with private balconies.
