Sol Sister

A beautifully intimate and tranquil home located five minutes from Sa Marina beach, this seaside villa is a real crowd-pleaser. Mastering indoor-outdoor living with a bevvy of balconies, alfresco dining spots, sun loungers and a spa-style swimming pool, there's space for everyone to sprawl out and relax.

We're still swooning over the sun terrace, with killer ocean and mountain views it's the perfect spot to start the day with a continental breakfast. Back inside, the open-plan living room, dining area and kitchen make for a light-filled, sociable space to prepare meals while chatting, playing games, and generally feeling at ease. It's a picture of Balearic design with whitewashed walls, natural wooden furnishings and sea blue tones.

But when you're not unwinding at home, there's a local area full of life to discover. The charming old town of Alcúdia is a culture seeker's haven, with traditional buildings, authentic tavernas and rich history – it's just fifteen minutes from your sanctuary of sunshine.
