Casa Costanera | 6-Bedroom Villa in Sant Joan de Labritja
Holiday Home Rental Description
Fourteen guests spread across six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and 28 acres of Mediterranean coastline in Sant Joan de Labritja—this is the scale of escape that Casa Costanera offers. Architect Rolf Blakstad designed this coastal property to live like a working Hacienda, where contemporary comfort hides behind whitewashed walls and limestone courtyards. From the moment you arrive at the gated entrance, the landscape shifts: lush gardens give way to open sky, and that first glimpse of the sea stops conversation entirely.
Inside Casa Costanera
Casa Costanera sleeps 12 guests across 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms distributed between two connected structures. The main residence houses three generously proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite features a four-poster king bed, walk-in wardrobes, private terrace access, and an en suite bathroom with both a deep bathtub and walk-in shower. Air conditioning cools the room against the island heat. The second bedroom contains two single beds, its own en suite with walk-in shower, and direct access to a shared terrace overlooking the grounds. A third bedroom sleeps two in a super king configuration, with air conditioning, en suite facilities including walk-in shower, and terrace access. All three rooms feature climate control as standard.
The main living spaces extend across an open-plan lounge and kitchen arrangement. Polished limestone floors run throughout; the lounge holds substantial seating, a working fireplace, television, and wide doors opening toward the Moroccan-style courtyard and south-facing terrace. The kitchen operates at the scale required for group cooking, with commercial-grade appliances, substantial counter space, and a dining table accommodating the whole party. A separate shared bathroom serves the kitchen zone.
Connected via a courtyard pathway stands the historic farmhouse annexe, a three-bedroom guest wing that functions with complete independence. This structure houses a lounge with corner sofa and fireplace, a tea and coffee station, and three additional sleeping rooms: a double bedroom with air conditioning, wardrobes, and en suite shower room; a king bedroom with private terrace and access to a shared bathroom; and a twin bedroom with shared facilities. This physical separation makes the annexe ideal for multigenerational groups, elderly parents, or visiting friends who value privacy within proximity.
Throughout both buildings, heating runs underfloor for cool season months. The Sonos sound system distributes music across interior and exterior zones. Practical amenities include a full laundry room, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, blender, toaster, and working open fire. Wi-Fi penetrates all rooms. Hair dryers, irons, and ironing facilities sit ready in each bedroom.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
Step outside and the property reveals its true character. Courtyards multiply—formal Moroccan gardens, sand play areas for children, alfresco dining platforms with integrated seating. The heated infinity pool commands views toward the coastline; the surrounding terrace holds loungers, parasols, and a furnished chill-out zone with shade. A gas barbecue stands ready for evening meals. Multiple garden levels, planted with olive, citrus, palm, and fruit trees, create natural privacy screens and release herb-scented air throughout the day.
Children’s amenities include a dedicated play zone equipped with slide and swings, plus a sandpit for younger guests. The roof terrace offers perspective views across the entire estate and toward the sea horizon. Gated parking accommodates multiple vehicles. A private pathway descends through the gardens toward Cala Xuclar beach—a 5-minute walk that feels worlds away from the main house.
Location: Sant Joan de Labritja and the Surrounding Area
Sant Joan de Labritja sits at Ibiza’s northern tip, 5 minutes by car from the Six Senses Hotel and approximately 40km from Ibiza Town. This township maintains an authentic village character—whitewashed architecture, a central plaza, working local markets, and a calendar of traditional festivals that attract island residents rather than package tourists.
Cala Xuclar beach lies directly accessible via the property’s private path, a 10-minute descent through gardens. This cove combines pebbles and sand within a protective rocky amphitheatre; the crystal seabed suits snorkellers and swimmers comfortable with a rocky entry. The Chiringuito Xuclar operates from the beach—a rustic seafood restaurant serving the day’s catch, moderately priced, popular for sunset cocktails and sundowners as light fades across the water.
Other significant swimming locations include Cala d’En Serra (8km south), a family-friendly beach backed by pine forest with easy parking and beach bars, and Portinatx (6km south), a horseshoe bay with three sandy beaches, water sports facilities, and a cluster of restaurants ranging from casual beachside to fine dining. S’Illot des Renclís, a rocky islet 3km offshore, attracts boat-based day-trippers and divers exploring underwater caves.
The village of San Juan (locally Sant Joan) sits 3km south—a working community with supermarkets, a weekly market, pharmacies, and family restaurants serving traditional Ibizan fare. Ibiza Town (35km, 40-minute drive) offers museums, galleries, the UNESCO-listed Old Town ramparts, and evening entertainment spanning casual tapas bars to Michelin-referenced restaurants. The airport (50km, 50-minute drive) handles European connections and domestic flights.
For activities, the northern coast suits sailing, kayaking, and boat hire through operators based in Portinatx. Cycling routes traverse the quieter interior—rural lanes connecting villages, olive groves, and abandoned stone farmhouses. Mountain biking trails climb the interior highlands.

Seasonal timing matters: May-June offers warm seas (20°C), wildflower meadows, and pre-summer crowds. July-August brings peak heat (32°C+) and maximum island populations. September maintains warm water (23°C) with thinner crowds and calmer seas for boating. October shows autumn light and comfortable temperatures (26°C). Winter (November-March) brings cooler weather (12-15°C), occasional rain, and minimal tourism—appealing for couples and creative retreats but less suitable for families expecting Mediterranean sunshine.
Who This Villa Suits Best
Casa Costanera accommodates multiple guest profiles effectively. Extended families (parents, adult children, grandchildren) benefit from the main house-to-annexe separation, allowing shared meals and activities without constant proximity. Groups of 8-12 friends find the bedroom distribution logical and the outdoor scale appropriate for coordinated activities or independent relaxation. Multigenerational parties—where elderly parents need accessible ground-floor accommodation and younger children require secure play spaces—find both elements present. Destination weddings and celebration groups appreciate the scale, privacy, professional-grade kitchens, and ability to hire on-site staff. Couples seeking villa-scale luxury without the overhead of managing separate dwellings can occupy a single wing, leaving the remainder closed.

All 12 bedspaces can be occupied simultaneously; no additional sofa beds or rollaway mattresses are available.
What is the nearest airport to Casa Costanera in Sant Joan de Labritja?
Ibiza Airport (Aeropuerto de Ibiza), located 48 kilometres south of the property, is the primary entry point. The drive requires approximately 50 minutes under normal traffic conditions. Barcelona-El Prat Airport (150km) and Valencia Airport (200km) offer alternative arrival points for European connections, requiring 2-2.5 hour transfers. The on-site concierge arranges car hire, private driver transfers, or helicopter services for guests preferring accelerated arrival.
What is the best time of year to rent Casa Costanera?
May through October suits most guests. May-June offers comfortable temperatures (24-26°C), warm seas (20-21°C), and pre-peak-season island ambiance—wildflowers still bloom in the interior, and beaches remain accessible without August-level crowding. July-August delivers guaranteed heat and activity but brings maximum tourist density to beaches and restaurants; expect temperatures of 30-32°C and significant crowds at popular coves. September-October maintains warm water (22-24°C), thinner crowds, and the best light for photography as summer haze clears. Winter (November-March) suits couples and creative groups prioritizing privacy over guaranteed sunshine, with temperatures dropping to 12-15°C and occasional rainfall, though many establishments close seasonally. The property operates year-round with heating and full amenities regardless of season.
Is Casa Costanera suitable for families with children?
Yes, with nuance regarding age groups and parental capacity. Children aged 4-12 benefit from dedicated play equipment (slide, swings, sandpit), direct beach access through a private pathway to Cala Xuclar (safe for supervised swimming in calm conditions), and the scale of grounds allowing active play without escaping the property. The heated pool accommodates swimming with supervision. Cala d’En Serra beach (8km away) offers gentler family swimming with beach bars and facilities. The on-site concierge can arrange childcare, kids’ yoga, and activity instructors. Infants under 2 require standard cot hire; the property has limited high-chair and pushchair facilities, which must be pre-arranged. Teenagers generally appreciate the isolation and pool area but may find limited evening entertainment; the island’s clubs and bars concentrate in Ibiza Town (35km away). Families with very young children (under 2) should confirm cot and feeding-equipment availability before booking.
