Fodor's Expert Review Cas Gasi
Cami Vell a Sant Mateu s/n, Santa Gertrudis, Balearic Islands, 07814, Spain Fodor's Choice
A countryside setting on a hillside overlooking a valley makes this lovely late-19th-century manor house a quiet escape in a lively destination, with photo-ready views of Ibiza's highest mountain (1,567-foot Sa Talaiassa). Open year-round, this intimate hotel is only about 11 km (7 miles) from the beach and main attractions, but it places a premium on privacy—which is why celebrities like Richard Gere and Claudia Schiffer have been known to vacation here. There's a monitored gate at the driveway, and the Mediterranean-style restaurant (which uses homegrown organic products) and spa (offering a mix of Eastern and Western therapies) are available exclusively for guests. The airy, rustic guest rooms with wood-beam ceilings are gracefully furnished, each in a different style, and bathrooms have Moroccan-style tiling. If you're up for leaving the idyllic grounds, bicycle tours and sailing charters can be arranged.
