A Modern Take on Traditional Ibiza
Can Cecilia is a newly built rural estate set among the quiet orchards and red earth tracks of San Lorenzo. The architecture respects the island’s vernacular tradition, featuring thick whitewashed walls and timber-beamed ceilings that keep the interiors cool during the Mediterranean summer. The property is fully fenced, ensuring absolute privacy for families or groups seeking a quiet base in the northern hills.
Inside, the house offers generous proportions designed for comfortable group living. The ground floor flows through spacious living rooms into a sophisticated library gallery, providing plenty of quiet corners for reading or working. A dedicated dining room and a fully fitted Siemens kitchen make meal preparation straightforward, while the wine cellar and central heating ensure the house is inviting even during the cooler months.
Generous Spaces Inside and Out
The villa accommodates up to twelve guests across six bedrooms, matched by six bathrooms. The sleeping quarters are designed for restful nights, supported by air conditioning and the complete quiet of the inland location. For those needing to catch up on work, there is a dedicated office space, while the smart television and music system provide entertainment in the main living areas.
Outside, the extensive grounds centre around a large swimming pool surrounded by a terracotta terrace and wooden sunloungers under white parasols. Stone steps lead up to the main house, where covered terraces with white drapes offer shaded spots for afternoon relaxation.
The outdoor facilities are set up for full days in the sun. An outdoor kitchen, complete with a barbecue and pizza oven, sits alongside an al fresco dining area and a bar. Nearby, a circular outdoor jacuzzi is built into traditional stonework, framed by mature palm trees and olive groves.
Designed for Groups and Slow Mornings
This property works exceptionally well for large families, groups of friends or couples looking for a secluded base. With facilities for disabled guests, the layout is accessible and practical for multi-generational groups. The combination of private spaces and extensive communal areas means guests can easily spend entire days without leaving the grounds.
A typical day begins with coffee in the sun-warmed courtyard, enjoying the country views and the stillness of the San Lorenzo hills. Afternoons revolve around the pool and the outdoor kitchen, preparing lunches with local produce. As evening falls, the lack of light pollution in this rural hamlet reveals incredibly clear, starry skies, best enjoyed from the outdoor jacuzzi or with a glass from the wine cooler at the bar.
The Quiet North of San Lorenzo
San Lorenzo is a tiny, tranquil inland village in the municipality of Sant Joan de Labritja. Prized for its dark skies and absolute peace, it offers a deeply rural lifestyle far removed from the busy coastal resorts. The surrounding landscape is defined by traditional agriculture, pine forests and quiet country lanes.
Despite the remote feel, the location is highly practical for exploring the north and east of the island. The gastronomic hub of Santa Gertrudis is nearby, offering excellent dining options, while the villages of San Juan and San Carlos are easily reached for a change of pace or a visit to the Las Dalias market. When you want to swim in the sea, the northern beaches, including the clear waters of Benirràs, are just a short drive away.
