A modern estate in the Ibiza countryside
Villa Can Gertrudis sits on a substantial 15,000-square-metre fenced plot, providing a deep sense of quiet in the rural centre of the island. The property is designed as a modern summer residence, spread across 275 square metres of living space. Large windows are a defining architectural feature, drawing abundant natural light into the interior rooms throughout the day.
The layout is divided into two distinct buildings connected by a central patio, allowing a group of up to ten people to share the property while maintaining distinct private zones. The interiors are finished with high-quality furnishings and a clean, contemporary aesthetic that feels both comfortable and thoroughly considered.
Generous living spaces and expansive gardens
The main house opens into an extensive lounge divided into two areas. One side features a large dining table, while the other offers a sofa corner arranged around a fireplace, complete with a satellite television and home cinema system. The adjacent kitchen is fully equipped, featuring a generously sized double-door fridge, and opens straight onto the central patio. Two double bedrooms are located in this main building, sharing a bathroom with a shower.
The second building, completed in 2015, contains the remaining sleeping quarters. This includes the primary bedroom with an en suite toilet, alongside two further double bedrooms that share a shower room. All bedrooms are fitted with air conditioning to ensure comfort during warmer nights.
Outside, the grounds are extensive. An eleven-metre by four-metre swimming pool, which can be heated on request, is surrounded by a stone terrace with sunloungers and parasols. The garden incorporates a large lawn, two gazebos, a Zen meditation area, and a dedicated outdoor bathroom.
Designed for family life and relaxation
This property is particularly well suited to families seeking a calm base in the centre of the island. With a dedicated children’s play area, table tennis, and expansive lawns, younger guests have plenty of room to explore safely within the fenced grounds.
A typical day here revolves around the outdoor living spaces. Mornings might begin with practice in the yoga area, followed by breakfast on the main patio under the shade of the pergola, where a dining table seats up to twelve.
Afternoons are easily spent moving between the swimming pool and the various chill-out terraces and Balinese beds. As evening approaches, the outdoor barbecue area provides a focal point for al fresco dinners, while the pool lighting allows for late swims before gathering in the lounge.
Central access from Santa Gertrudis
The villa is located just three kilometres from Santa Gertrudis, a car-light inland village known for its bohemian character, art galleries, and strong gastronomic scene. The village square is ringed by acclaimed restaurants and delis, making it a popular evening destination for those staying in the surrounding country estates.
Because Santa Gertrudis sits at the geographic centre of Ibiza, guests have straightforward access to all coasts. The beaches of Benirràs and Cala Llonga are both within easy driving distance, offering a choice of different coastal environments.
For wider exploration, the location is highly practical. A supermarket is within three kilometres, while the village of San Rafael is five kilometres away. Ibiza Town, with its historical sites and marinas, is an eleven-kilometre drive, and the airport is seventeen kilometres from the house.
