Overview
Listen to the waves splash against the rocks as you sit out on your terrace with stunning views of the Mediterranean. This charming Menorcan villa in Binibeca enjoys a prime location by the seafront a short stroll from restaurants and a sandy beach, just over 2km from the enchanting white-washed houses of Binibeca Vell.
Whether staying with family or friends, there is plenty of space to relax across the grounds of Villa Valenta. Sip your morning coffee beneath the parasol as you gaze out towards the sea and enjoy long lunches on the dining terrace before sunbathing on the raised terrace or beside the 10m long swimming pool. The pretty green shutters, palms and olive trees add to the Menorcan charm of your very own garden so close to the sea.
Inside, interiors are modern, bright and airy across the spacious lounge and dining area whilst the kitchen is well equipped for preparing family meals at home. There are two doubles and two twins, allowing flexible sleeping arrangements, and every bedroom features a ceiling fan and air-conditioning. Three modern bathrooms with walk-in showers complete this sea-facing villa.
In this privileged setting in Binibeca, only the road and rocks separates your villa and the water’s edge. An idyllic sandy bay with turquoise water is around a 20-minute walk away and even closer are a small handful of restaurants and a little supermarket. Continue further along the coast until you reach the charm of Binibeca Vell with its flower-filled alleyways and picture-perfect white houses – it’s an absolute joy to explore.
This is a great base for exploring south-eastern Menorca, only 12km from the island’s capital, Mahón. Wander around the characterful village of Sant Lluis with its 18th century windmill, Molí de Dalt, followed by a wine tour and tasting at Bodegas Binifadet, one of the island’s oldest wineries (also home to an excellent restaurant).
Return to your Binibeca holiday home and kick back on your terrace, perhaps accompanied by a chilled glass of Binifadet white, as you look out towards the Mediterranean, a fine way to spend warm summer evenings with family or friends.
What you should know…

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ValentaWith its stunning views of the Mediterranean, this villa by the seafront enjoys a prime location near Binibeca, a short stroll from restaurants and an idyllic sandy beach and 2.5km from the charm of Binibeca Vell’s iconic white-washed village.
Only a road separates Villa Valenta from rocky coastline and sea. Wander along the road to a little supermarket and a small handful of restaurants within 750m. Just a little further, come across a path leading down to a gorgeous sandy bay with turquoise coloured water and summer sun loungers to rent, only around a 15 to 20-minute walk from Villa Valenta.
Get lost in the warren of narrow lanes in Binibeca Vell, a tiny white-washed village with houses in built in traditional Menorcan style. It feels like a step back in time yet the village dates back to the 1970s when a Spanish architect created this cluster of pretty houses to represent a traditional Mediterranean coastal village. Wander there early in the morning before the day trippers arrive to truly soak up the charming ambience, then admire the beautiful views from the port below.
Sea lovers look out for little rocky calas along this part of the coastline, ideal for snorkelling or watch on as confident swimmers jump from the rocks. Indeed, Binibeca is loved for its scuba-diving opportunities and the Binibeca Diving Centre is only 1km away (boat tours and kayak rental can also be arranged here).
Meanwhile, the Cami de Cavalls island trail is a must for keen walkers. In this area the route leads west towards Binissafuller and beyond or east to Punta Prima, mainly following routes through a residential area. The hiking path then becomes wilder along the coast towards Alcafar and continues to Mahon, the island’s capital.
Indeed, Binibeca is a great base for exploring south-eastern Menorca. Drive up to the characterful village of Sant Lluis with its 18th century mill, Molí de Dalt (now home to a ethnology museum). Close to the village is Bodegas Binifadet, the oldest winery in Menorca where guided tours and tastings can be arranged or book a table at the winery’s highly regarded restaurant for an authentic Menorcan gastronomic experience.

THE REGION
The quiet and idyllic resort of Binibeca is a very popular smaller resort on the beautiful south coast of Menorca and is a perfect choice for holidaymakers wanting to escape the noise and crowds of other more developed areas. You will not find any skyline-destroying hotels or large holiday complexes here, most accommodations being in private villas and apartments.
Today, Binibeca stretches 3 km along the coast and includes the original ‘Binibèquer Vell’, or an old portion, as well as the new portion of ‘Binibèquer Nou’- a natural progression with many of the homes and villas in keeping with the original design. At the very eastern point of Binibeca, you will also find Cala Torret, a small village which feels separate but is actually part of it.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesMenorca is a fine family destination and Binibeca won’t disappoint. It is great being around a 20-minute drive from the airport when you first arrive.
So close to the water’s edge, enjoy the gorgeous sea views as you dine together on the terrace and cool off in the swimming pool. Stroll along the seafront road to a handy little supermarket and a small handful of restaurants, then continue to a gorgeous sandy beach with clear water, ideal for snorkelling. A little further along the coast, be enchanted by the narrow alleyways and whitewashed houses of Binibeca Vell.
The Binibeca Diving Centre is a short walk away and offers boat trips and snorkelling tours alongside kayak rental. In the other direction, Splash Sur Menorca waterpark is less than 2km away with its themed swimming pools, adventure river and exciting slides.
The seaside resort of Punta Prima is home to another fantastic beach – a tourist road train connects Binibeca and Punta Prima in the summer months. For a change of scene, venture to Cala en Porter with its fantastic cove, very gently shelving water, canoe hire and pedaloes – if you can manage the trek down to the cove, it’s a lovely spot for families.
