Villa Calma

About Villa Calma

Villa Calma is a self-catering apartment or villa set in the Ibiza countryside, outside the main resort areas. It suits travellers who want a quiet, independent base with a garden, a terrace and an outdoor pool. The property is not rated by stars and has no guest score listed.

The accommodation is equipped for longer stays: a full kitchen with oven, microwave, dishwasher and toaster, plus a washing machine and ironing facilities. Free WiFi and free car parking are included. The villa has a fireplace, air conditioning and a safe. A cot is listed as available.

Location: Sant Joan de Labritja

Villa Calma is on the Ctra De Sant Joan, about 11.8 km straight line from Ibiza Town port and 18.2 km from the airport. The nearest town is Santa Eulària des Riu, 4.9 km away, which has a promenade, a marina, shops and restaurants that stay open year-round. Cala Llonga, a sheltered inlet with shallow water, is 7 km away, and Es Canar, a family beach with the Punta Arabí hippy market on Wednesdays in season, is 8.4 km away.

The property is in a rural area, so a car is essential for getting to the coast, shops or restaurants. In high summer, the roads to the beaches and towns can be busy. In the shoulder months of May, June, September and October, the countryside is quieter and the weather is still warm enough for the pool.

Rooms and facilities

Villa Calma is listed as an apartment or villa with a kitchen, a terrace and a balcony. Facilities include air conditioning, free WiFi, a TV, a hairdryer, a safe and a fireplace. The kitchen has an oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster and coffee maker. A washing machine and ironing board are provided.

The property is suitable for families: a cot is listed. The outdoor pool and garden are private to the villa. Guests arriving late should confirm check-in arrangements with the property, as the villa is in a remote location and may not have a reception desk.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 18.2 km straight line from Villa Calma. A taxi takes about 20-30 minutes depending on traffic. A hire car is the most practical option for the stay, as public buses to the countryside are limited. Buses from the airport run to Santa Eulària des Riu in summer, but from there you would need a taxi or a car to reach the villa.

Ibiza Town port is 11.8 km away, a short taxi ride. Ferries from the port connect to Formentera (La Savina), Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia. In winter, flights and ferries are fewer, and some seasonal bus lines stop running. Check the island bus operator for current timetables.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check with Villa Calma directly for its opening dates and availability in winter. July and August are the peak months, with busy roads and higher demand. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax (the ecotasa) is charged per person per night by the accommodation; the rate depends on the season and the type of accommodation, is reduced in low season and for longer stays, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rate on the Govern de les Illes Balears website.
