Sabina Style

Sabina Style: Balearic Islands

Just outside beautiful Santa Eulalia, 9km from buzzing Ibiza town, this villa has a traditional Ibizan feel with a slick modern finish. Big wooden doors open onto comfortable spaces indoors and out. We love the poolside day bed – perfect for lounging with cocktails before a night out, or taking a long siesta. The pool itself is saltwater and has no chlorine – a real treat for water babies – so take a refreshing swim and dry off with happy skin and tousled hair. The master bedroom boasts an en-suite with a corner jacuzzi bath, and the top floor double bedroom has a fantastic terrace looking out over the fruit trees and olive groves, so don't miss out on morning coffee with a view. There's ping pong and table football in the shade if you need a break from the sun. In the afternoon, fire up the barbecue and enjoy long alfresco lunches under the Sabina roof before heading out on the town, or staying 'a casa' for a garden party.

Home truths:
*Because the doubles both have en-suites, the two twins and single room on the ground floor share the one remaining bathroom
*Make sure you pack your insect repellent, these rural areas can be a bug's paradise
