Deluxe Santa Monica | 6-Bedroom Villa in Es Migjorn Gran

Fourteen guests arrive at a sprawling whitewashed farmhouse in Es Migjorn Gran, Menorca, where countryside panoramas stretch toward the sea and silence becomes the loudest feature. This luxury villa rental in Es Migjorn Gran sits on one of the island’s oldest agricultural properties, its thick stone walls and beamed ceilings telling stories across three centuries. What stops most visitors mid-conversation is not the architecture alone—it’s the sheer scale of privacy: you’re surrounded by fig trees, almond groves and ancient olive specimens, yet Santo Tomás beach lies just 3km away and the island’s cultural treasures are within easy reach.

Inside Deluxe Santa Monica

Deluxe Santa Monica sleeps 12 guests across 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, with every bedroom offering its own ensuite. The ground floor opens into a high-spec kitchen that occupies its own architectural statement—turquoise cabinetry frames professional-grade appliances including an induction cooktop, integrated microwave, and an American-style refrigerator with ice and chilled water dispensers. A dedicated espresso machine and beer tap signal that this is a kitchen designed for both serious cooks and casual gatherings. The breakfast bar sits adjacent to a central island, while patio access allows easy transitions between cooking and outdoor dining.

Three ground-floor bedrooms each contain twin beds with premium linens and ensuite shower rooms. A fourth ground-floor space functions as a children’s room with twin beds, pink soft furnishings, and direct ensuite access—ideal for young families who want independence without distance. Immediately adjacent sits a generous guest toilet. The ground floor’s primary living area features a working fireplace with substantial furnishings and French doors opening westward to the terrace; a secondary entertaining space houses a wall-mounted television with Netflix and streaming services, offering a retreat space separate from family gatherings.

The first floor holds three bedrooms, all equipped with air-conditioning and ensuite facilities. The master bedroom features twin beds, a private balcony with southwesterly exposure, and three separate windows framing pool and garden views—this room captures the villa’s best natural light. Two additional first-floor bedrooms offer similar configurations with air-conditioning and balcony access on one. A sitting area with comfortable seating provides a third upstairs gathering space, positioned to catch afternoon and evening light.

Throughout the property, original architectural details—beamed sloping ceilings, terracotta and tiled flooring, whitewashed walls—combine with contemporary refinements including ceiling fans in multiple rooms and climate control where needed. All bedrooms feature air-conditioning capability, while a washing machine and dishwasher handle domestic logistics. The villa provides cots and high chairs for guests traveling with infants, subject to booking conditions.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The grounds justify their own description. Ancient vines cascade across walls; bougainvillea and flowering plants establish color against the white facades. A private swimming pool anchors the entertainment area, surrounded by adjustable sun loungers and parasols that create intimate conversation zones. An outdoor shower allows pool-to-terrace transitions without entering the main house. Two substantial shaded dining tables and a functional barbecue setup mean alfresco meals can accommodate the entire party of 12 simultaneously; an outdoor refrigerator keeps beverages at temperature poolside.

The western-facing front terrace is where sunsets become performance art. The sky transitions through orange, pink and purple above the Menorcan countryside while you sip a Pomada—Xoriguer sloe gin with lemon Fanta, ice and a lemon slice, the island’s signature drink. This terrace spans substantial square meters, offering both shaded and open areas for different times of day. Private parking accommodates multiple vehicles on the property itself.

What distinguishes the grounds beyond conventional villa features is the landscaping maturity. These are not newly planted specimen trees—the fig, almond and olive trees have been in place for generations, creating a sense of rootedness rare in short-term rental properties. Evening lighting illuminates key trees, extending the usable outdoor space into night hours while maintaining the rural character.

Location: Es Migjorn Gran and the Surrounding Area

Es Migjorn Gran occupies Menorca’s south-central coastline, a location that balances accessibility with seclusion. Santo Tomás, the nearest beach resort at 3km, offers an excellent sandy beach backed by restaurants, bars and Hawaiian beach-style venues where sunset drinks become a nightly ritual. The coastal walking trail Camí de Cavalls passes within accessible range, offering approximately 185km of Menorca’s entire shoreline on foot—spectacular access to sandy coves, rocky diving pools and reefs abundant with Mediterranean marine life.

Bini Gaus Beach, approximately 4km away, features both sand and accessible cave exploration; a cathedral-sized cavern sits just above the beach and rewards a short hillside hike. Closer to the villa stands an ancient Talaiotic monument—a fortress structure from approximately 3000 years ago featuring a small internal tunnel, evidence of Menorca’s Bronze Age defensive architecture. These archaeological markers appear throughout the surrounding countryside, along with rural footpaths connecting beautiful woods and verdant valleys.

Ciudadella, Menorca’s second city on the western coast, sits approximately 30km away and earns its nickname ‘Vella i Belli’ (Old and Beautiful) through its preserved medieval character. The old quarter contains palaces, period churches and fortress structures, while the picturesque harbor hosts waterfront dining where early morning fishermen unload daily catches. Plaça d’es Born ranks among Spain’s most photographically compelling public squares. The town celebrates its patron saint festival on June 23-24 with one of Menorca’s most elaborate annual celebrations. Ferry service from the port connects to Alcúdia in Mallorca for day-island exploration.

Mahón, the island capital approximately 25km away, combines historical significance with contemporary vitality. The 18th-century Carme church near Plaça Espanya and the 18th-century Xoriguer Gin Distillery offer cultural engagement; the early morning fish market presents a sensory spectacle of colorful Mediterranean catches. The city’s reputation for upmarket nightlife, waterfront bars and clubs makes it ideal for evening entertainment. Local shops specialize in Menorcan leather goods, pottery and textiles.

Menorca Airport (MAH) lies approximately 15km away, with transfer times of roughly 20 minutes by car.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Large extended families benefit from the six separate bedrooms and seven bathrooms—sufficient for parents, grandparents and children to maintain privacy while remaining close. The ground-floor arrangement particularly suits families with very young children or mobility considerations. The dedicated children’s room with its own shower access removes the dependency cycle of shared family bathrooms.

Multi-generational groups appreciate the property’s ability to accommodate different schedules; the upstairs sitting area and lower entertainment room create separate gathering spaces. The master bedroom’s balcony and first-floor rooms with outdoor access suit guests seeking solitude between group activities.

Celebration groups—weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays—find in the pool, barbecue facilities and two dining tables infrastructure for gatherings that exceed typical holiday rentals. The kitchen’s professional appliances and central island accommodate group meal preparation, turning cooking into social engagement rather than logistical burden.

Couples traveling with friends split the accommodation costs across four couples or three couples with additional guests, while maintaining the intimate atmosphere that larger hotels cannot provide. Each couple secures ensuite privacy, while shared entertainment spaces encourage connection without forced proximity.

Remote workers managing projects across time zones benefit from reliable Wi-Fi, multiple work-capable spaces (the sitting room upstairs, secondary living area downstairs), and the psychological advantage of completing tasks before 2pm, then transitioning to pool time without the guilt of office presence.
