Villa Can Vincent

About Villa Can Vincent

Villa Can Vincent suits travellers who want a self-contained stay in the Ibizan countryside, away from the main resort strips. This unrated villa offers a private outdoor pool, a garden and a terrace, with a full kitchen and washing machine for longer stays. It is a practical base for couples or a family who prefer to cook and relax in their own space rather than eat out every night.

The villa is listed as a single unit with air conditioning, free WiFi and free car parking. There is no on-site restaurant or reception desk, so guests manage their own schedule. The property is not beachfront, but the west-coast coves and Sant Antoni bay are a short drive away.

Location: Sant Josep de sa Talaia

Villa Can Vincent is in the countryside of Sant Josep de sa Talaia, about 2.8 km straight line from Sant Antoni de Portmany. Sant Antoni faces west and its bay has a long promenade, a marina and the sunset strip on the north shore. The villa sits on a quiet road with no immediate neighbours, so a car is essential for shopping, eating out and reaching the beaches.

In high summer the area is busy with day-trippers heading to the coves, but the villa's rural setting stays calm. In the shoulder months of May, June, September and October the countryside is quieter and the weather is still warm enough for the pool. The nearest village for supplies is Sant Agustí des Vedrà, a short drive south.

Rooms and facilities

The villa is listed with air conditioning, a kitchen with a microwave and refrigerator, a washing machine, an iron and board, and a safe. There is a TV, free WiFi and a terrace with garden furniture. The property is non-smoking and has a smoke detector. Guests should confirm the exact bedroom layout and the number of beds with the owner before booking.

A cot is listed, so families with a baby can request it. The outdoor pool is private and not shared, which suits guests who want to swim without leaving the property. Late arrivals should check the check-in procedure in advance, as there is no front desk.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 10.8 km straight line from Villa Can Vincent. A taxi from the airport takes about 15-20 minutes. A hire car is the most practical option for the stay, as the villa is in open countryside. Car parking is free on the property. Buses from the airport run to Sant Antoni de Portmany, from where a taxi covers the remaining 2.8 km.

From Ibiza Town port the straight-line distance is 12.6 km. Guests arriving by ferry from Formentera, Palma, Barcelona, Valencia or Dénia can take a taxi or collect a hire car at the port. Flights and ferries are fewer in winter, so check the schedules if travelling outside the main season.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Sant Antoni de Portmany is 2.8 km straight line from the villa. The bay has a long seafront promenade, a marina and a choice of restaurants and shops. Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta are 5.8 km away, two small coves with clear water and pine cover. Cala Comte, 7.1 km away, has shallow clear water and views of offshore islets; it is a popular spot for watching the sunset.

Cala d'Hort, 10.2 km away, faces Es Vedrà, the limestone islet about 380 m high that is a nature reserve. The cove is inside the Cala d'Hort, Cap Llentrisca and Sa Talaia natural park. Sa Talaia, the highest point on Ibiza at about 475 m, is 4.3 km away and offers a view over the whole island. Local food includes bullit de peix, a fish stew served in two courses, and fresh rice dishes.

A day from Villa Can Vincent

A morning at Villa Can Vincent might start with breakfast on the terrace, followed by a swim in the private pool. A short drive of 5.8 km takes you to Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta, two small coves with clear water and pine shade. The walk from the car park down to the water is steep but short. Bring water and a picnic, as there are no shops right at the cove.

In the afternoon, drive 7.1 km to Cala Comte for shallow water and views of the islets. The sun sets over the water here, so it is a good spot to end the day. For a different view, drive 4.3 km to Sa Talaia and climb to the summit before dusk. Dinner could be in Sant Antoni, 2.8 km away, where the bay has a promenade and a choice of places to eat.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, so check with Villa Can Vincent whether it is open in the months you plan to travel. July and August are the peak months, with the highest demand and the busiest roads. 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 property, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rates on the Govern de les Illes Balears website.
