Sa Vinya Casa de Campo

About Sa Vinya Casa de Campo

Sa Vinya Casa de Campo suits travellers who want a self-catering stay in a quiet rural setting on Ibiza's west coast. The property is an apartment or villa, not rated, and offers a full range of facilities for independent living. It sits inland from Cala d'Hort, a small cove inside the Cala d'Hort, Cap Llentrisca and Sa Talaia natural park, facing the limestone islet of Es Vedrà.

The stay is entirely self-contained: guests have a kitchen or kitchenette, a washing machine, a dishwasher and a terrace or patio. There is free car parking and free WiFi. The property is not beachfront; the nearest beach, Cala d'Hort, is 2 km away by straight line. It is best suited to those with a hire car who want to cook their own meals and explore the south-west coast.

Location: Cala d'Hort

Sa Vinya Casa de Campo is in the countryside near Cala d'Hort, on the south-west coast of Ibiza. The area is part of the Cala d'Hort, Cap Llentrisca and Sa Talaia natural park, a protected landscape of pine-clad hills and rocky cliffs. Cala d'Hort itself is a small sandy cove with clear water, facing Es Vedrà. The nearest village is not given, but Sant Antoni de Portmany is 12.3 km away by straight line, and Cala Comte is 9.4 km away.

A car is essential for getting around: the property has free parking. Cala d'Hort is 2 km away, walkable but steep in parts. In high summer the cove gets busy, but the rural setting of the villa remains quiet. In the shoulder months of May, June, September and October the area is much calmer, with fewer visitors and cooler evenings. The property's terrace and garden make it a good base for a relaxing stay.

Rooms and facilities

The accommodation is listed with air conditioning, a balcony or terrace, a patio, a fireplace and a garden. The kitchen or kitchenette includes a refrigerator, microwave, oven, toaster, dishwasher and coffee maker. There is a washing machine, an iron and board, and a hairdryer. Entertainment includes a TV, DVD and CD player, radio and free WiFi. The property also lists a cot and high chairs for families.

Guests should confirm the exact layout and number of bedrooms with the property, as these are not specified. Late arrivals should check the check-in procedure, as the property does not list a reception desk. The safe and first-aid kit are useful for longer stays. The property is non-smoking indoors but has a smoking area outside.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 11.3 km away by straight line. A taxi takes about 15-20 minutes on the winding roads. A hire car is recommended for this rural location; there is free parking at the property. Seasonal buses run from the airport to Sant Antoni and the south beaches, but they do not serve Cala d'Hort directly, so a car or taxi is needed for the last part.

From Ibiza Town port, the straight-line distance is 17.4 km. Ferries from the port connect to Formentera, Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia. From Sant Antoni de Portmany (12.3 km away) there are some mainland ferry routes in season. In winter, flights and ferries are fewer, and many restaurants and beach bars in the area close. Check the hotel's opening dates before booking.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

The nearest beach is Cala d'Hort, 2 km away, a small cove with views of Es Vedrà. Cala Comte is 9.4 km away, known for its shallow clear water and islets offshore. The Torre des Savinar walk is 3.2 km away, a watchtower with panoramic views. Es Vedrà itself is 4.1 km away from the cliff and the water; it is a nature reserve with no landing allowed. Climbing Sa Talaia, the highest point on Ibiza at about 475 m, is 6.4 km away.

Ibiza's local food includes bullit de peix and arròs a banda, a fish stew served in two courses, and fresh fish and rice dishes. Many restaurants around Cala d'Hort serve these, but none are named here. The area is inside a natural park, so there are no large supermarkets; stock up in Sant Antoni or Ibiza Town. The property's kitchen allows guests to cook their own meals.

A day from Sa Vinya Casa de Campo

Start the morning with coffee on the terrace at Sa Vinya Casa de Campo. Drive 2 km to Cala d'Hort for a swim facing Es Vedrà. The water is clear and the cove is sheltered. After a swim, walk the 3.2 km to Torre des Savinar for views along the coast. The walk takes about an hour each way on a dirt track.

For lunch, return to the villa to cook using the kitchen. In the afternoon, drive 9.4 km to Cala Comte for shallow water and offshore islets. Late afternoon, drive 6.4 km to climb Sa Talaia for sunset views over the island. Return to the villa for an evening meal on the patio. The property's garden and fireplace make for a quiet end to the day.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check Sa Vinya Casa de Campo's opening dates before booking. July and August are the peak months, with higher demand and busier beaches. 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 with the Govern de les Illes Balears.
