The Edge of Water

The Edge of Water: Balearic Islands

With stretching views over the bright Alcúdia Bay, this beachfront villa is situated on a rocky viewpoint by the water's edge. A mere ninety metres from the sandy beach of Cala Tonó, come and see how Colònia de Sant Pere is a hidden gem on the Mallorcan shoreline. Inland, hikers will love the Puig de Ferrutx and historians may wish to visit the Sa Clova d'es Xot.

Feel the sea breeze as you begin each morning out on your balcony, then make coffee in the kitchen and enjoy an alfresco breakfast beneath blue skies. We think the best way to relax here is by thumbing through a good book before cooling off in this plunge pool. For your afternoon siestas, you'll find peaceful bedrooms that have been designed in a coastal colour palette – so you can sleep soundly as the waves lap just outside. When you grow peckish, gather downstairs for a traditional dinner of frito mallorquín while you discuss tomorrow's plans.
