Overview
The gorgeous, atmospheric Deluxe Santa Monica is one of the oldest farmhouses in Menorca. With six dreamy bedroom suites, a wonderful choice of entertainment spaces and sensational grounds, this fabulous villa is perfect for a large family or group of friends. Situated in the beautiful countryside in Es Migjorn Gran, this charming country villa is totally private and very secluded. Deluxe Santa Monica enjoys fantastic panoramic views across the unspoilt countryside towards the sea.
Es Migjorn Gran is centrally located between Ciutadella and Mahon, just a two-minute drive from the old towns of Ferreries and Es Migjorn and just a few kilometres from the south coast. It is the perfect place to relax, enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Menorca and visit all of the island’s delightful beaches. An ancient path from the villa leads you through wild fennel to one of the island’s ancient talaiots. The villa is a wonderful access point for walks to remote beaches such as Cala Fustram, Cala Escorxada and Playa Bini Gaus. You will feel as though you are in the real Menorca with old men gathering in the village and at the cafes to shake their heads at the new things in the world. Deluxe Santa Monica sits on its own natural water spring from an ancient well.
Each of the rooms at this special offers a unique style with beamed sloping ceilings, beautiful soft furnishings, and vivid colour pops against the dazzling white walls. Many of the villa’s original features have been carefully blended with resurfaced, tiled floors and modern touches. The villa’s kitchen is high-spec with top-notch appliances. It is a very bright and cheerful space with its turquoise tones. Guests enjoy the espresso Krups coffee machine, the beer dispenser and the huge American fridge freezer with ice and cold water on tap.
There is a great choice of living spaces. The main living room is gorgeous with a feature fireplace, beautifully upholstered sofas and French double doors to the west-facing terrace. It is a wonderful spot for family games. The second ground-floor living space enjoys an enormous wall-mounted television with Netflix and other services. It is very comfortable and ideal for chilling out at the end of a busy day. Upstairs there is another delightful living space.
All of the bedrooms enjoy ensuite bathrooms. Two of the bathrooms offer baths as well as showers. Some of the bedrooms are located on the ground floor, and the remaining ones are upstairs. First on your left, as you enter the villa’s porch, is a delightful children’s room with twin beds, pretty pink curtains and a spacious ensuite shower room. To the right of the porch is a double bedroom, again with an ensuite shower room. This wonderful bedroom looks towards the games room and swimming pool terrace. There are two further double bedrooms on the ground floor. Like the others, the beds are adorned with beautiful, unique linens. You will find the master bedroom suite and another bedroom on the upper floor. The master has been renovated with large arched doors which lead to the upper living room. Three windows look out over the pool plus the room enjoys a lovely balcony. The remaining bedroom enjoys fantastic sunset views.
Ancient vines and colourful plants adorn the walls of this spectacular villa. The grounds are brimming with fig, almond and olive trees, many of which are beautifully lit up at night. The swimming pool is surrounded by elegant, adjustable sun loungers and parasols. There is a handy outdoor shower. Guests can enjoy delicious alfresco meals on two large shaded tables using the villa’s barbecue. An outdoor fridge keeps drinks chilled by the pool. The front of the villa enjoys a large west-facing terrace, the ideal spot for Menorcan Pomada cocktails and watching the sky turn into ravishing, vivid colours at sunset.

Location
About the surrounding area of Deluxe Santa MonicaLocated in the charming Es Migjorn Gran area of Menorca, Deluxe Santa Monica enjoys a wonderful plot, sensational views and easy access to some very special beaches. This area is sprinkled with historical monuments and traces of the island’s long history. Very close to the villa is a talaiot, an ancient fortress with a small tunnel. The island’s talaiots were built around 3000 years ago for defence. The surrounding beautiful countryside features many rural paths, wonderful woods and beautiful valleys. Also close by is the gorgeous Bini Gaus Beach and an ancient cave the size of a cathedral. It can be accessed on foot from the top of the hill above the beach.
Santa Tomas is a delightful beach resort with an excellent beach, some very good restaurants, fabulous bars and clubs and Hawaiian style beach bars. You can enjoy Pomada’s watching the sun go down. They are made with Menorca’s own Xoriguer sloe gin, lemon Fanta, ice and lemon. The island’s coastal path Cami De Cavalls is a total wonder with access to beautiful sandy beaches, rocky diving pools and reefs resplendent with sea life.
One of Menorca’s older areas, Son Bou enjoys clubs, bars, swimming pools, restaurants and a golden stretch of sand.
Ciutedella is on the west coast and is known as ‘Vella I Belli’ (‘Old and Beautiful’). It is Menorca’s second city with a picturesque port and an engaging old quarter lined with grand gold-tinged buildings. The medieval streets are filled with palaces, churches and fortresses as well as wonderful restaurants and bars. Placa d’es Born is one of the most picturesque squares in Ciutedella. It is a delight to explore. Waterside dining can be found at the port. If you get there early enough you can watch the fishermen bringing in the local catch of the day. You can also catch a ferry from here to Alcudia in Mallorca. Ciutedella celebrates its local festival on 23 and 24 June each year and the party is one of the most spectacular festivals in Menorca.
The island’s picturesque capital Mahon is a lively city rich in history, culture and entertainment. Close to the Placa Espanya is the pretty 18th century Gothic Carme church. The 18th century Xoriguer Gin Distillery is definitely worth a visit and there are many cute shops selling leather, pottery and clothes. The early morning fish market is fascinating to walk through with its huge piles of colourful fish. Mahon is well known for its upmarket nightlife and waterfront bars and clubs.

Three beaches define Santo Tomas, San Adeodato beach, or Binicodrell, Sant Tomas beach, and Binigaus beach. This last one is the most famous as it used to be empty of people, and the turquoise waters are astonishing.

Absolutely wonderful holiday.
Deluxe Santa Monica villa is breathtaking and stylish, yet homely and quintessentially Menorcan. Outside bursts with beautiful blooms of colour and a fabulous pool with lovely outside bar style area, perfect for dining al fresco or enjoying drinks as the sun sets over the far reaching views. Conveniently situated a short distance from the charming village of Es Migorn Gran and close to the soft sandy beaches of San Thomas. Menorca is a small island with lots to offer, but I found it hard to drag myself away from the villa on many days! Would definitely return.

Remarkable
Truly remarkable what you have achieved and love the olive trees. They really add to the garden. The swimming pool area is gorgeous and the bbq and bar make all the difference. It looks so good and you have also done wonders to the entrance with the garden and the flowers.
-
Sensational
It is hard to find sufficient superlatives to thank you for the sensational holiday that all members of the Furniss family have just so greatly enjoyed at our much loved Santa Monica. We made full use of the swimming pool and greatly admired your surrounding garden which gets better and better. We also took full advantage of the smart barbecue area.
Away from the house we certainly visited almost all points of the island from Mahon to Cuitadella. We bought with us two racing bicycles so were able to cover many places – like going up Monte Toro which was quite a puff. It has to be said that after all the places we visited, both grown ups and children voted the best beach Santa Tomas and Es Bruc to be the very best restaurant especially for small people.
It will come as no surprise to you that we would all like to go to Deluxe Santa Monica again next year. So when the time comes for taking reservations do please let our daughter E. and I know so that we can hopefully book for two separate weeks like this year.

Brilliant
Thank you for letting us rent your farm house for our family holiday.
The change to the house is brilliant, but has not spoilt the feel of the place at all.
We all had a lovely time and enjoyed our stay very much. -
