Villa Panorama

About Villa Panorama

Villa Panorama suits travellers who want a self-contained stay in the Ibizan countryside, away from the resort strips. The villa has its own outdoor pool, a garden and a terrace, so the day can be spent on site without needing to move. It is a practical choice for a family or a small group: the kitchen is equipped for cooking, and the washing machine and dishwasher make longer stays easier.

This is an unrated villa in the Can Furnet area, a residential zone on the hills east of Ibiza Town. It is not a hotel with reception or a restaurant; guests manage their own arrival and departure. The property accepts credit cards and allows pets. The guest score is not listed.

Location: Santa Eulària des Riu

Villa Panorama sits in Can Furnet, a quiet hillside area east of Ibiza Town. The immediate surroundings are countryside with scattered villas and pine woods. It is not a beachfront property: the nearest coast is Talamanca, a calm bay 3.7 km away in a straight line. Ibiza Town port and Dalt Vila are about 5 km away. A car is essential for shopping, eating out or reaching the beaches.

In high summer the area stays quieter than the coastal resorts, though the roads to Ibiza Town and Talamanca can be busy. In the shoulder months of May, June, September and October the pace is slower and parking easier. Much of the island's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check with the property whether the villa is open in winter.

Rooms and facilities

The villa is listed with a kitchen, a washing machine, a dishwasher, a microwave, an oven, a refrigerator and a coffee maker. There is a TV and a DVD player, free WiFi, air conditioning, a hairdryer, an iron and board, and toiletries. The terrace and balcony have outdoor furniture, and the garden has a picnic area. The property also has a sofa bed, so the sleeping capacity may be flexible.

Guests arriving late should confirm the check-in procedure with the property, as there is no front desk. The kitchen allows self-catering for any meal time. Pets are allowed, which is useful for those travelling with a dog or cat. The free car parking on site means no need to find street parking.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 11.4 km away in a straight line. A taxi is the most direct option; a hire car collected at the airport gives flexibility for the whole stay. Buses run from the airport to Ibiza Town, but from the town you would need a taxi or a further bus to Can Furnet. A hire car is strongly recommended.

Ibiza Town port, where ferries from Formentera, Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia arrive, is 4.6 km away. Talamanca is 3.7 km away. From the port a taxi to the villa takes about ten minutes. In winter, flights and ferries are fewer; check the schedules with the operators.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

The nearest beach is Talamanca, 3.7 km away, a shallow bay with calm water across the marina from Ibiza Town. Cala Llonga, a sheltered inlet with shallow water, is 5 km away. Dalt Vila and Ibiza Town centre are 5.1 km away, where you can walk the Renaissance walls and visit the cathedral. The Puig des Molins Phoenician-Punic necropolis is 5.8 km away.

Las Dalias market at Sant Carles de Peralta is 11 km away; it runs on Saturdays in season (check the current days). For food, Ibiza's fish stew bullit de peix and arròs a banda are served in many restaurants around the island. The villa's kitchen means you can also cook fresh fish bought in Ibiza Town market.

A day from Villa Panorama

From Villa Panorama, drive 5 km into Ibiza Town and park near the port. Walk up to Dalt Vila through the 16th-century walls to the cathedral at the top. The Puig des Molins necropolis is a short drive or a long walk south-west of the old town. For lunch, buy ingredients at the market or find a restaurant in the town centre.

In the afternoon, drive 3.7 km to Talamanca for a swim in the calm bay, or continue 5 km to Cala Llonga. Return to the villa for an evening by the outdoor pool. The terrace and garden are quiet spots for dinner. If you want a sunset view, drive towards the west coast, but the villa itself is east-facing.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check with Villa Panorama whether it is open during your travel dates. July and August are the peak months with the highest demand and temperatures. 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.
