Es Cubells, Ibiza, Balearic Islands, Spain

On the fringes of Sa Caleta, an inspiring fusion of classic and contemporary awaits. With a saltwater swimming pool, full-sized tennis court and distant sea views, this villa is a place to switch off, yet only a stone's throw from the island's world-renowned beach clubs. For the bright lights of Ibiza Town and Marina Botafoch, it's just a 15-minute drive.

Vast sliding doors flood the open-plan living area with natural light. In the kitchen, the neutral hues of the timeless timber cabinetry are complimented by warm tonal walls. Integrated appliances and pared-back finishes make this an inviting place to cook while direct access to one of the home's many terraces forms an effortless dialogue between inside and out. Full height glazing extends this sense of fluidity to the living room, leading to a covered terrace that becomes an extension of the space. An area designed for entertaining lies beneath Sabina beams, overlooking the outdoor kitchen and pool beyond.

Beneath two pergolas, an outdoor area envisaged for hosting features a barbecue and dishwasher, as well as room to accommodate a large table. Socialising is also on the cards up on the roof terrace where the Mediterranean's aquamarine waves can be seen in the distance.

A large saltwater swimming pool stretches out towards the sea. Set into an immaculate tiled deck, it's the ultimate place to press pause with plenty of chill-out spots just a not far from the water's edge. A built-in waterfall pours into the pool, adding to the serene, Mediterranean oasis. For those wanting an adrenaline kick, a full-size tennis court surrounded by waving palms is an ideal setting for a match or two.

Back inside, two bedrooms occupy the main house. The pared-back contemporary finishes continue, paired with an organic colour palette and wood accents. Both rooms feature open-plan arrangements, with limewash en suite bathrooms complete with walk-in rainfall showers and double vanities. Private and secluded outdoor showers lie behind floor-to-ceiling glass doors, creating synergy between inside and out.

Two further bedroom suites can be found in the studio and guest house, along with living spaces and outdoor terraces. Considered interiors that blend modern elegance with traditional Balearic charm flow throughout. Both also have air conditioning throughout.

Minutes from the red cliff-backed Sa Caleta beach, and a short drive from the airport, Can Jondal is enviably located. It's also a springboard to the best of the southern coastline, from Cala Jondal to the bay of Porroig. Immerse yourself in nature at the Ses Salines Natural Park, positioned at the southernmost tip of the island. Head to the friendly village of San José for the weekly Saturday market brimming with organic fruits, vegetables and homemade baked goods. Come evening, Ibiza Town turns up the volume with vibrant bars and world-class restaurants - just fifteen minutes away.
