Finca Legado Ibiza

About Finca Legado Ibiza

Finca Legado Ibiza suits travellers who prefer the interior to a resort strip: couples after quiet evenings, walkers, and families who want a pool and a garden rather than an entertainment programme. The finca stands in open countryside in the Santa Eulària des Riu area, outside the main resort zones, with the town and the nearest cove both about 4.3 km away. A hire car makes the stay simplest.

The property is a rural hotel or agroturismo, rated three stars, and carries a guest score of 4.8/5 from 87 reviews. Listed in-room facilities include air conditioning, free wifi, a balcony, a fireplace and a patio. Outside there is a salt water swimming pool with a pool bar, a garden and terraces, which is where most of the day tends to pass in the warmer weeks.

Location: Santa Eulària des Riu

Finca Legado Ibiza sits in the rural land of Santa Eulària des Riu municipality, on the east side of Ibiza, outside the built-up resort areas. Santa Eulària des Riu itself is 4.3 km away, a river town with a promenade, a marina and a slower evening pace. Cala Llonga, a long sheltered inlet with shallow water, is also 4.3 km away. Ibiza Town port lies 8.6 km off, and Talamanca bay 7.6 km.

Because the finca is in the countryside, the town, the coves and the airport work best by car, taxi or bus rather than on foot; check the island bus operator for current lines and seasonal timetables. In high summer the pool and the garden at Finca Legado Ibiza are the sensible base for the middle of the day, with outings early and late. Spring and autumn are gentler for the lanes, the coast and the markets.

Rooms and facilities

Facilities listed for Finca Legado Ibiza cover the practical side of a country stay: air conditioning, free wifi and internet access, a safe, a desk, coffee making, a hairdryer, toiletries, a bath and a bidet, and non smoking rooms. Outside are a salt water outdoor pool with a pool bar, a garden, a terrace and a patio, plus free car parking, a smoking area and first aid provision.

Couples may prefer a room set back from the pool bar, while families need to know how a third bed or a cot is arranged; ask when booking. Late arrivals should confirm arrival times and key collection with the hotel before travelling. Also worth checking with Finca Legado Ibiza: whether pets are welcome in every room, whether special diets can be handled, laundry service details, and how massage bookings are made.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) lies 15.4 km from Finca Legado Ibiza in a straight line, in Sant Josep south-west of Ibiza Town. The easiest arrival is a hire car collected at the terminal, which also covers the lanes inland; taxis wait outside arrivals. Bus passengers can take an airport service towards Ibiza Town or Santa Eulària des Riu and finish the last few kilometres by taxi, checking the island bus operator for lines and times.

Ibiza Town port, 8.6 km away, is where ferries leave for La Savina on Formentera, as well as for Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia, so a Formentera day trip is feasible from the finca. Fast crossings to La Savina take about 30 to 35 minutes. Fly and ferry schedules thin out in winter, so confirm them with the operators before fixing dates.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Nearest for a swim are Cala Llonga, 4.3 km from Finca Legado Ibiza, and the beaches around Santa Eulària des Riu at the same distance. Talamanca, a calm shallow bay across the marina from Ibiza Town, is 7.6 km away. The finca is inland, so the coast is a short drive or bus ride rather than a walk from the gate.

Sights sit within easy range: the walls of Dalt Vila in Eivissa are 9.2 km away, the Las Dalias market at Sant Carles is 7.3 km, and the Punta Arabí hippy market at Es Canar is 9.4 km. Market days change with the season, so check current days. For food, look for the island's fish cooking: bullit de peix served in two courses, and arròs a banda, rice cooked in fish stock.

A day from Finca Legado Ibiza

Start early with a swim at Cala Llonga, 4.3 km from Finca Legado Ibiza, before the parking fills in high summer. Return for breakfast and a slow hour by the salt water pool, then take the short run to Santa Eulària des Riu, also 4.3 km, for the promenade and the marina and a coffee before the heat builds.

After lunch, drive 9.2 km to Eivissa and walk the walls of Dalt Vila, the 16th-century fortifications above the port, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site listed in 1999. Head back east in the evening, perhaps by way of Talamanca bay at 7.6 km. On a market day in season, Punta Arabí at Es Canar is 9.4 km from the finca and Las Dalias at Sant Carles is 7.3 km.

Practical tips

Finca Legado Ibiza is at its best in the shoulder months, when the lanes and the coast are quieter; high summer is the busiest spell on Ibiza and the pool earns its place. Much of the island's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, so confirm the hotel's own opening dates before booking. A sustainable tourism tax, the ecotasa, is charged per person per night by the accommodation, with rates that vary by category and season; the Govern de les Illes Balears sets them.
