About this property
Casa Carmen is a fantastic 4 bedroom property set into the picturesque hillside of San Jaime, overlooking the beautiful Son Bou beach, one of Menorca’s most stunning stretches of sand. Situated in a quiet street just 400m from the shore, you’ll begin to unwind as soon as you arrive.
This traditional style villa with modern finishes is built over 2 floors, accessed from the street by 43 steps. As you enter the ground floor, you’ll find yourself in the spacious open plan living/ dining area, centred around a grand fireplace; perfect for entertaining or sitting back and enjoying the views through the French windows. The well-equipped kitchen features an American style bar on which to enjoy your breakfast before you start your Menorcan adventures, it also extends to a pantry and laundry.
Also on the ground floor are a bathroom and two high-ceilinged double bedrooms, one with en suite, both with access to the enticing sun terrace and feature spectacular views out over the Mediterranean Sea. The sizeable Master bedroom can be found on the first floor, with its own en suite, next to which a further double bedroom en suite is situated. Both rooms have direct access to the stunning upper terrace, to enjoy those dreamy mornings overlooking the beautiful stretch of coastland.
Perhaps the most enjoyable feature of this property are the large outdoor terraces boasting incredible views, one of which runs the entire width of the villa and offers a built-in barbeque for all you culinary exhibitionists, and a comfortable shaded seating on which to enjoy their delights, as the sun sets over that incredible vista. Head down the steps and you’ll find the peaceful tranquility of the pool terrace with a sumptuous 9 x 4m infinity pool and Jacuzzi. There is also a shower and WC for your comfort. So whether relaxing on the sun loungers or cooling off in the refreshing waters, you won’t want to leave this Menorcan paradise!
Just 30 minutes from Manorca’s Airport and half way along the South coast, Son Bou is the perfect base from which to explore this magical Island. Visit Manorca’s charming capital Mahon, and its former capital Cuitadella with its medieval streets and gothic architecture, in only a 30-minute drive. In a five minute drive you can find yourselves ambling down the picturesque streets of the small bustling market town of Alaior with its whitewashed buildings and its crowning glory the beautiful Santa Eulalia Church. And for all history lovers, the prehistoric village of Torre d'en Gaumes, one of the largest Talayotic settlements on Menorca, is only a 10 minute drive from Son Bou.
San Bou itself was built with family holidays at its forefront. The resort resides behind a beautiful nature reserve, along a pristine beach, with an abundance of facilities on its doorstep. The town comprises of well-stocked supermarkets, a pharmacy, boutique, craft and designer shops, an array of restaurants, and a nightclub. Together with its proximity to one of the most beautiful beaches in Menorca, the location ensures you won’t ever be far from what you need.
With over 3km of fine golden sand, this resort has so much to offer the perfect beach holiday. Populated by several beach bars, with water sports options ranging from pedalos to water skiing, and sun beds and umbrellas at your fingertips, long lazy days or active afternoons are a must. And with sumptuous sand dunes rather than high-rise hotel blocks serving as a backdrop, you’ll have stunning views for company. Just a warning that the beach is often frequented by Naturists, so if public nudity is not for you, you may want to avert your eyes!
For more water-based entertainment, San Jaime, a 5 minutes walk from Son Bou, offers the well-recommended Sant Jaime Club – hosting a restaurant, large swimming pool, paddling pool for younger children, and a water slide.
