Located at the geographical heart of the island, Villa Luz enjoys a peaceful and prestigious countryside setting. Surrounded by the verdant hills of central Ibiza, your views are spectacular and panoramic.
The endearing village of Santa Gertrudis is very close to Villa Luz. The whitewashed church and tree lined square retain traditional charm and character. There’s an abundance of fabulous restaurants and pavement cafes, luring visitors into the shade for a drink or to sample Jamon Serrano and Manchego cheese for lunch. Pull up a seat, watch the world go by and relax into Santa Gertrudis’ easy going ambience.
Shoppers will love exploring the mix of modern and traditional shops in and around La Plaza. Find gifts, souvenirs, clothes and craft, as well as art galleries and local food.
For a day out at the beach, drive nine kilometres down to the coast and enjoy sampling a variety of coves and golden stretches of sand. Talamanca beach, near Ibiza Town, is at the centre of Ibiza’s iconic beach-club scene. Cala Longha, further along the coast, is one of Ibiza’s largest beaches. Measuring two hundred metres by one-hundred metres wide, it’s a family-friendly arc of golden sand, bars and restaurants, beach activities, children’s playground and sun loungers for hire.
On the northern coast, Puerto de San Miguel is worthy of a day trip. As well as a beautiful sandy beach, with gorgeous clear waters for swimming and snorkelling, you also have a diving school, bars, shops and one of the best fish restaurants on the island. Port Balansat is just off the beach and patronised by locals and visitors alike. Follow the local’s lead and try Bullit de Peix; a traditional Ibizan fish dish.
Back at Villa Luz, why not celebrate another day of bliss with a glass or two of the locally produced Malvasian wine? Your only problem being, which delightful terrace to choose, for sitting and admiring the sunset!
