Villa Sunrise

About Villa Sunrise

Villa Sunrise is a self-catering villa in the countryside, outside the main resort areas. It suits travellers who want a base with space and privacy, away from the noise of the south-coast clubs. The villa is not rated and has no on-site restaurant or pool listed; the facilities focus on independent living, with a kitchen, washing machine, terrace and garden.

The property is a villa, so guests manage their own meals and entertainment. The listed equipment includes a CD player, DVD, radio and free wifi. The garden and terrace offer outdoor space, and the jacuzzi is a private addition. This kind of stay works for couples or families who prefer to cook and relax in their own accommodation.

Location: Sant Josep de sa Talaia

Villa Sunrise is in the countryside, roughly 2.5 km in a straight line from Dalt Vila and Ibiza Town. The area is rural, with fields and low hills, not a resort strip. In high summer, the peace of the countryside contrasts with the busy town and beaches; in the shoulder months of May, June, September and October, the surroundings are quieter and the weather still warm.

The villa is 3.1 km from Ibiza Town port and 4.7 km from Ibiza Airport. Playa d'en Bossa is 2.6 km away as the crow flies, and Talamanca is 4.1 km. A car is the most practical way to reach the villa and explore the island; taxis are available from the airport and town. Seasonal buses run from the airport to Ibiza Town, but the villa is not on a main bus route.

The safe and first aid kit are practical additions. Guests should confirm the exact layout and number of bedrooms when booking.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 4.7 km straight line from Villa Sunrise. A taxi from the airport takes about 10-15 minutes by road. A hire car collected at the airport gives flexibility for the stay. Buses run from the airport to Ibiza Town, but the villa is in the countryside and not on a direct bus line; a taxi from the town centre adds a short ride.

From Ibiza Town port, the villa is 3.1 km straight line. Ferries from the port connect to Formentera (La Savina), Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia. In winter, flights and ferries are fewer; check the schedules with the operators. The villa is easiest to reach by car or taxi from the port.

Playa d'en Bossa, the longest beach on the island, is 2.6 km away, with its shallow water and beach bars.

A day from Villa Sunrise

A morning at Villa Sunrise starts with coffee on the terrace. Drive the 2.5 km to Dalt Vila to walk the walls and visit the cathedral. The Puig des Molins necropolis is 2.1 km from the villa, a short detour. Midday, head to Playa d'en Bossa, 2.6 km away, for a swim and lunch at one of the beach bars.

Afternoon, drive south to the Ses Salines Natural Park, with its salt pans and dunes. Evening, return to Ibiza Town for dinner in the port area or the old town. The villa is 3.1 km from the port, so a taxi or a short drive brings you back to the quiet countryside. The jacuzzi and terrace are a calm end to the day.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check the villa's opening dates with the property. July and August are the peak months, with the busiest beaches and highest demand. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax (the ecotasa) is charged per person per night by the accommodation; the rate depends on the season and type of accommodation, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rate with the Govern de les Illes Balears.
