Villa Ebea

From its privileged position on the hillside above the restaurants, shops and cafes of Son Bou, this attractive coastal home looks south onto a glistening panorama of azure blue ocean to provide the most enticing of holiday settings on this picturesque stretch of Menorca’s southern coastline.

With sea-facing terraces to be found adjoining each floor of the property, this is a home that provides its guests with their own private viewing galleries from which to survey the ever-changing maritime vistas displayed before it.  Beyond the terracotta tiled rooftops of neighbouring homes a seemingly infinite expanse of ocean twinkles in multi-shades of blue as it reaches out to the horizon like a picture-postcard.  Along its edge, a natural shoreline of dunes and grasses borders the sweeping sands of the island’s longest beach.

These golden sands and the family-friendly hub of cafes, shops and restaurants that lies just a short distance behind Son Bou’s eastern end are pleasingly accessible from the house and whilst active members of the group may opt to take the steps that wind their way between the houses in a direct line towards the sea, others may prefer to walk along the residential lanes. The nearest of the resort’s various restaurants is just 600m away and the beach can be reached in 1km.

Thoughtfully designed to include a choice of outdoor seating areas, gated access from the first floor verandah to the pool below and a dedicated barbecue section for al fresco dining, the terraced grounds will no doubt become a much-enjoyed feature. Inside, the attractive interior is also sure to delight, with its fresh décor of crisp white walls and tasteful furnishings, a generous provision of five bathrooms for each of the five bedrooms and the welcome inclusion of air conditioning in the two first floor bedrooms and open plan living area on the ground floor.
