Villa Cantalou · Private padel court, Es Cubells

01 Hideaway Included

The full reading is still to come. Until then: the listing’s evidence, read under the same seven categories.

The Villa for a Group

Sleeping & en-suite quality: Eight bedrooms, all en suite with walk-in showers, most convertible to twins. Several open to their own outdoor showers.
Flow & shared living: A main house and two independent guest houses, so sixteen people share an estate without sharing a corridor. The same house books as six bedrooms when the group is smaller.
Kitchen & the long table: Twelve at the indoor table with the doors pulled open, the outdoor kitchen alongside for the slow nights.
Design calibre: Jaime Romano's pueblo-style architecture, minimal and warm, built around eco-responsible choices that show in the garden more than the brochure.

The Setting

Seclusion & neighbour distance: Inside a natural reserve above Es Cubells, at the end of an unpaved stretch that keeps the passing world out.
Nature, light & views: A Japanese garden running from Mediterranean to tropical to wooded, turquoise-to-navy water in the pool, and the island's south light.
Quiet: Es Cubells is the corner of Ibiza the island keeps for itself: a clifftop church, a handful of houses, no strip.

The Padel Court

Verification & privacy: A private court on the estate. The group plays inside the reserve's silence.
Surface & build: Surface, glass and floodlights to confirm with the house.
Floodlights & play: Morning games in the garden's shade, the fitness room for the rain that rarely comes.
Aesthetic integration: Held in the garden, white walls and green around it.

Photography planned The padel court in the estate's gardens, white walls and green around it. The court is on the listing and is not in the agency's photography.

The Kitchen

Chef access & provisioning: The chef is not an add-on here: one comes with the house, with groceries delivered before you land.
Local food, a short drive: Es Torrent's fish restaurant sits in the next cove, and the tables of Es Cubells and Sant Josep are ten minutes off.
Wine & produce culture: The estate's own gardens lean eco-responsible, and the island's payés produce does the rest.

The Relaxation

Pool & water: A 24 by 4.5 metre saltwater pool, heatable on request, with the garden arranged around it.
Sauna, ice, spa: A fitness room with its own bathroom, and wellness treatments that come to the house on request.
Sleep & unprogrammed space: Outdoor showers by the bedrooms, a garden built for wandering, and the reserve's dark sky at night.

The Service on site

On-site staff & housekeeping: Housekeeping seven days a week, a property manager holding the estate, and a caretaker living independently on the grounds.
Upkeep & grounds: Garden, pool and court kept daily.
Runs-itself factor: The most staffed house in the collection's Ibiza set. It runs whether you notice or not.

The Feeling

Arrival & sense of place: The unpaved road, the gate, the garden closing behind you.
The week that arranges itself: Court in the morning, the pool through the afternoon, dinner appearing at dusk.

Pick a week to start

Weeks run Friday to Friday, with the option to adjust the days and the period in shoulder season once I check availability with the villa. Temperature and sunlight are averages, not a forecast. A chef and a property manager are already in these figures. The house also takes a six-bedroom configuration, which runs €5,300 to €6,600 less a week.

The practical questions about Villa Cantalou

Why book through you?

The villas are looked after by people who are particular about who they work with, and they work with me. That takes time to earn and it is why this collection grows slowly, a villa at a time.

You pay the villa's own rate, and the week costs no more for my being in it: my commission comes out of what the villa already charges. The Concierge, Driver, Chef and Coach are quoted alongside it as one price, and I am on call for them all week. Every enquiry comes to me, so the person who answers is the person who arranges it.

How this began →

Is there a security deposit at Villa Cantalou?

The villa sets its deposit and it is written into your agreement before you book. Ask me and I will tell you the figure for your dates.

More on how deposits and damage are handled →

When do we arrive, and can we book a shorter stay?

Any day, minimum 7 nights. Tell me your dates and I will confirm with the villa.

Which airport do we fly into for Villa Cantalou?

Ibiza (IBZ), about twenty-five minutes away by road. A driver comes with the villa, so you are met at arrivals and driven in.

What comes with the villa, and what can I add at Villa Cantalou?

The whole villa, yours alone, 8 suites for 16. A concierge, a driver and a chef come with the villa. Add a coach and I plan the week and come back with one price.

What is added to the rate at Villa Cantalou?

It differs by villa. Some quote the week with the cleaning and the taxes inside it; others charge cleaning separately, or tax on the booking fee. I confirm this villa's lines before I quote, so the figure I come back with is the figure you pay.

How you are billed →

Can we take Villa Cantalou with a smaller group?

Yes. The house also lets as six bedrooms rather than eight, which runs €5,300 to €6,600 less a week depending on the season. The estate, the chef and the court are the same either way. Tell me the number and I will quote the configuration that fits it.
