Can Rimbau: The Hidden Treasures of the Southeast

Can Rimbau is one of the most exclusive residential communities close to Ibiza Town. Positioned on the hills above Jesús, this private gated area is known for contemporary and Mediterranean villas, lush surroundings and a peaceful residential atmosphere. With only a relatively small number of properties, the community offers a level of privacy that is difficult to find so close to the city.

Many homes enjoy panoramic views across the Mediterranean, towards the historic skyline of Dalt Vila and, depending on their orientation, as far as Formentera. Buyers interested in this area can explore our current selection of villas for sale in Can Rimbau.

Another major advantage is the location. Jesús, with supermarkets, restaurants and everyday services, is only a short distance away, while Talamanca Beach, Marina Botafoch and Ibiza Town can all be reached quickly. The airport is also conveniently accessible.

This combination of privacy, security, panoramic views and proximity to the island’s main amenities makes Can Rimbau particularly attractive to international buyers, families and second-home owners who want a quiet residential setting without feeling isolated from Ibiza’s beaches, restaurants and city life.

Cala Jondal and Es Cubells: The Heart of the South Coast

Along Ibiza’s south coast, Cala Jondal and Es Cubells represent two different but highly sought-after lifestyles. Cala Jondal is known for its long sand and pebble beach, clear Mediterranean water, renowned restaurants and some of Ibiza’s best-known beach clubs. The surrounding hills are home to contemporary villas and private estates, many with sea views and large plots.

Its location is another major advantage. Ibiza Town, the airport and other beaches in the south of the island are all within relatively easy reach, making Cala Jondal attractive to international buyers who want to combine privacy with access to Ibiza’s social and gastronomic scene.

Es Cubells offers a quieter and more residential atmosphere. The small whitewashed village sits high above the Mediterranean, surrounded by dramatic cliffs and countryside. The surrounding hills contain some of the island’s most private villas and estates, many positioned to take advantage of open sea views and the peaceful landscape of the south coast.

Below the village are smaller coves and coastal areas such as Ses Boques and Cala Llentrisca, while walking routes along the cliffs reveal impressive views across the Mediterranean towards Es Vedrà. For buyers seeking privacy, space and a more discreet residential environment, Es Cubells offers a very different character from the livelier atmosphere around Cala Jondal.

Together, Cala Jondal and Es Cubells illustrate the variety of Ibiza’s prime south coast: one focused more on beach life, restaurants and social energy, the other on privacy, elevated views and a quie

Vista Alegre: Where Architecture and Nature Merge

Close to Es Cubells on Ibiza’s south coast lies Vista Alegre, one of the island’s most exclusive private residential communities. The gated development is particularly known for contemporary architecture, high levels of privacy and panoramic views across the Mediterranean. Many villas are designed with large glass façades, expansive terraces, infinity pools and open living spaces that connect naturally with the surrounding landscape.

Vista Alegre offers controlled access and security, making it especially attractive to international buyers looking for a private and protected residential environment. Properties range from striking contemporary villas with commanding sea views to more discreet homes surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation.

One of the major lifestyle advantages is the proximity to Cala Jondal, home to some of Ibiza’s best-known beach clubs and restaurants, including Blue Marlin Ibiza, Tropicana and Yemanjá. Residents can therefore enjoy the beaches, restaurants and social life of the south coast within a short drive while returning to the privacy and tranquillity of Vista Alegre.

Es Cubells and other beaches along the south coast are also nearby, while San José provides restaurants, shops and everyday services. Ibiza Town and the airport are also easily accessible by car.

For buyers looking to combine contemporary architecture, security, privacy and exceptional sea views with convenient access to some of Ibiza’s best-known beaches, beach clubs and restaurants, Vista Alegre remains one of the strongest residential locations in the south of the island.

Es Porroig: One of Ibiza’s Most Exclusive Coastal Enclaves

Es Porroig is one of the most exclusive and discreet residential areas on Ibiza’s south coast. This small coastal enclave is known for its large private plots, low building density, Mediterranean landscape and exceptional proximity to the sea.

The property market in Es Porroig is extremely limited and positioned firmly within Ibiza’s prime segment. High-quality villas and exceptional private estates are currently typically offered in a range of approximately €15 million to €60 million, depending on plot size, legally registered built area, architecture, sea views, privacy and direct proximity or access to the coastline. Some of the most outstanding properties are marketed privately or off-market and therefore never appear on the major international property portals.

The area has long attracted high-profile international owners looking for privacy and direct access to the Mediterranean. Former Formula One chief Bernie Ecclestone, for example, purchased a seafront villa in Es Porroig in 2017, illustrating the type of international buyer drawn to this highly discreet part of the island.

Many of the most desirable homes combine substantial plots with private swimming pools, extensive landscaped gardens, large terraces and panoramic views across the Mediterranean. Frontline estates and properties with direct or exceptionally close access to the sea are among the rarest residential opportunities on the island.

Another major advantage of Es Porroig is its combination of seclusion and accessibility. Cala Jondal, with its renowned beach clubs and restaurants, is only a short drive away, while Ibiza Town and the airport can generally be reached in around 20 minutes depending on traffic.

For buyers seeking maximum privacy, substantial land and one of the most prestigious coastal addresses in Ibiza, Es Porroig represents a very small and highly specialised market where access to private and off-market opportunities can be particularly important.

Roca Llisa and Can Furnet: The Strategic Choice

For buyers looking to combine privacy, security and convenient access to Ibiza Town, Roca Llisa and Can Furnet are two of the most attractive residential communities on the eastern side of the island.

Roca Llisa is a private gated community located between Ibiza Town and Santa Eulalia, directly beside Ibiza Golf. Surrounded by Mediterranean hills and natural landscape, the area offers controlled access, 24-hour security and a broad mix of properties ranging from apartments and townhouses near the golf course to contemporary villas with private pools, large terraces and open views towards the sea or surrounding countryside.

Its position makes Roca Llisa particularly attractive to buyers who want a peaceful and secure residential environment without being isolated. Ibiza Town, Marina Botafoch, Santa Eulalia, the airport and several beaches can all be reached within a relatively short drive.

Can Furnet is located further south, closer to Jesús and Ibiza Town. This established gated community is positioned on elevated hills, allowing many villas to enjoy panoramic views across the countryside, Dalt Vila, the Mediterranean and, from some locations, as far as Formentera.

The proximity to Jesús is particularly practical for year-round residents, with supermarkets, restaurants and everyday services only a few minutes away. Talamanca Beach, Marina Botafoch and Ibiza Town are also easily accessible, making Can Furnet popular with international families, permanent residents and second-home owners who want privacy while remaining close to the city.

For buyers comparing the two areas, Roca Llisa offers a stronger connection to nature, golf and the east coast, while Can Furnet provides faster access to Jesús and Ibiza Town. In both communities, the exact micro-location, views, access, community fees, security arrangements and legal status of the property should be carefully compared before purchasing.

Cap Martinet and Santa Gertrudis: The Best of Both Worlds

Cap Martinet is one of the strongest residential locations for buyers who want to remain close to Ibiza Town while enjoying privacy, sea views and a quieter environment. Positioned above Talamanca and only minutes from Marina Botafoch, the area is dominated by contemporary villas, renovated luxury homes and a limited number of exceptional properties with panoramic views towards the Mediterranean, Dalt Vila and Formentera.

The location is particularly attractive because residents can reach Talamanca Beach, Marina Botafoch, restaurants, marinas and the centre of Ibiza Town within minutes, while still returning to a private residential setting. Current asking prices confirm Cap Martinet’s position in the upper end of the Ibiza market, with exceptional contemporary villas commanding substantially higher prices per square metre than the wider local average.

Santa Gertrudis offers a completely different lifestyle. Located close to the geographical centre of Ibiza, the village has developed into one of the island’s most desirable year-round communities. Its pedestrian-friendly centre combines traditional Ibicencan character with restaurants, cafés, boutiques and galleries, while the surrounding countryside is characterised by farmland, pine forests and large private plots.

The property market around Santa Gertrudis ranges from traditional fincas and renovated country houses to contemporary villas and high-end Blakstad-style properties. Prime homes with large plots, privacy, modern architecture or tourist rental licences can reach several million euros, and exceptional estates can move into a much higher price category.

For international families, the proximity to Morna International College is an important practical advantage, but it is only one reason for the area’s popularity. Santa Gertrudis also offers a strong year-round community, central access to different parts of the island and a combination of countryside living with restaurants, services and social life close at hand.

Cap Martinet therefore appeals more strongly to buyers who want sea views, proximity to Ibiza Town, Talamanca and the marina lifestyle, while Santa Gertrudis is particularly attractive to those looking for larger plots, countryside, family life and a vibrant village atmosphere throughout the year.

Santa Eulalia: Year-Round Coastal Living for Families

Santa Eulalia is one of the most attractive locations on Ibiza for families, permanent residents and buyers looking for a combination of coastal living and strong year-round infrastructure. The east-coast town offers supermarkets, independent shops, restaurants, healthcare services, schools, two sandy beaches, a long palm-lined promenade and a well-established marina.

Unlike some of Ibiza’s more seasonal coastal resorts, Santa Eulalia remains active throughout the year. Many restaurants, shops and professional services stay open during the winter, while the marina, promenade and town centre create a lively but relaxed atmosphere that appeals to both international residents and local families.

The property market is broad. Buyers can find apartments close to the town centre and marina, modern developments near the coast, family homes and larger villas in the surrounding residential areas. Current market data in 2026 places broad asking-price levels for houses in the Santa Eulària municipality at around €8,800 to €8,900 per m², while prime sea-view villas, high-quality new developments and exceptional properties can command considerably higher prices.

The exact micro-location remains important. Properties within walking distance of the marina, beach and town centre offer maximum convenience, while homes in the surrounding hills can provide larger plots, more privacy and panoramic views over Santa Eulalia Bay and the Mediterranean.

For families and year-round residents, the combination of schools, healthcare, shopping, restaurants, beaches and good road connections is a major advantage. Santa Eulalia therefore offers a different type of luxury from Ibiza’s more isolated prime enclaves: less seclusion, but greater everyday convenience, a strong residential community and direct access to the sea.

For buyers looking for a permanent residence, a frequently used second home or a property with strong year-round appeal, Santa Eulalia remains one of the most balanced residential locations on Ibiza’s east coast.
