Roca Llisa, Ibiza, Balearic Islands, Spain

Framed by panoramic sea views and bathed in light, Villa Roka presents a canvas for reimagining coastal living. Set in a sought-after urbanisation - known for its discretion, exclusive setting and 24-hour security - this commanding villa is one of the largest within the community.

Originally reconfigured by architects Estudio Vila 13, its bold contemporary form makes a statement against the Mediterranean horizon. Behind its sculptural façade, expansive open-plan interiors unfold across two generous floors. At its heart, a sweeping spiral staircase doubles as an architectural centrepiece, around which lies a series of refined reception rooms, lounges and quiet corners to gather or retreat. The material palette is polished yet tactile: cool stone tiles underfoot, smoked mirrored walls that reflect light, and floor-to-ceiling glazing that dissolves boundaries between inside and out. The kitchen is sleek and modern: stainless steel surfaces and state-of-the-art appliances, including wine coolers, a Miele oven and dual fridge freezers, make for a space that's practical and stylish.

Adjacent lounges draw the eye outwards to the showstopping views. A wide, sun-drenched terrace provides uninterrupted sea views and an exceptional front seat to vivid sunrises. A generous oval swimming pool promises cooling dips, while a second pool offers space for serious swimmers. Around every corner, secluded chill-out spots provide perfect pockets for sunbathing or sunset cocktails.

Elsewhere, nine serene bedrooms are flooded with natural light. The front bedrooms upstairs open onto a wraparound terrace, framing sweeping views across the Mediterranean, while each bedroom benefits from sophisticated en suite bathrooms.

Location
Found in the exclusive Roca Llisa urbanisation, an enclave brought together by an appreciation of good design and laid-back living, a golf course and a wellness centre are at hand here. Mood dependent, Villa Roca is a sanctuary from and a springboard to Ibiza Town and Santa Eulalia. Closer to home: the lesser-trodden neighbourhoods of Jesús and Cala Llonga await or follow the hill down to the unspoiled cove of Cala Olivera. Plus, it's just a 20-minute drive to the acclaimed Morna International College, which offers an international version of the British education system - teaching in both English and Spanish.
