Finca Can Tunicu - Ibiza pure nature!

Casa Mestre de Dalt (i.e. the upper house master) Casa Mestre de Dalt (i.e. the upper house master) on Can Tunicu is just such a country house for a relaxed holiday on a plot of over 18,000 m² [or 194,000 sq.ft.]. The special thing about it is its elevated location at an altitude of about 160 metres [or 525 ft.] on the top of a hill that can only be reached via a private dirt road.

The house was built around 1970 on the remains of a family-owned former farmhouse from the 16th or 17th century, preserving the typical Ibicencan architectural style. It is therefore not a so-called luxury villa and not a house that, like many others, was built only for the purpose of tourist rentals as a holiday home or holiday villa in Ibiza, but built as a home used by the Ibicencan owner family outside the tourist season.

On the one hand, Can Tunicu offers a unique view of the valley of Es Broll de Buscastell, which is a living testimony to the historic Moorish irrigation techniques. The watercourse feeds from the Es Broll spring, one of the island’s most important aquifers. Along the torrent are various canals, water catchment basins, ditches and small sluices that ensure a constant supply of water to the cultivated areas, which in turn are laid out in terraces and bordered by natural stone walls.

On the other hand, in addition to this nature experience, exploring the island outside of Can Tunicu is definitely worthwhile!

The tourist centre of San Antonio on the west coast or the charming “white” village of Santa Gertrudis in the geographical heart of the island are only 8-10 km [or 5-6.2 miles] away and Ibiza Town is 17-22 km [or 10.5-13.7 miles] away, depending on the route chosen.

In addition, there are over 50 beaches in Ibiza, of which the seven closest are located at a distance of barely 10 km [or 6.2 miles] and within the municipal area.
