Details
The sweeping main gate entrance to the property is flanked by gardens and two large, airy dining areas. The patio entrance leads into both the main body of the house and an attractive one bedroom, en suite annex. Within the main villa, there is a large communal living space, fully appointed kitchen, and an al fresco dining area with a barbeque and log stove. With vineyards in such close proximity, this entire zone is perfect for savouring some of the excellent local wines.
Further facilities include an office, bathroom, bedroom and a changing room with walk-in clothing storage. Upstairs, the main bedroom enjoys fabulous views of the pool and gardens. It has a roof terrace as well as an en suite bathroom.
In addition to the very appealing set up of the main house, there is a striking and impressive stable block conversion with four double bedrooms, each one with their own bathroom. It benefits from a carefully designed layout in which the bedrooms blend with attractive living rooms flooded with light, and centre on a pretty courtyard. Throughout the house, white walls and wood furnishings hark back to its previous existence as a finca. Driven by the owner’s strong sense of style, the villa also enjoys an eclectic range of influences from Morocco to Bali.
Can Carlota’s outdoor spaces are just as marvellous as its interiors. Taking full advantage of Formentera’s perfect climate, there is a large outdoor living space with chill out couches and loungers, a covered area and TV. The sights and scents of the gardens form a very attractive backdrop to sunbathing and evening cocktails. The huge, perfectly designed swimming pool is a worthy centrepiece to this indoor/outdoor environment.

Location
Please note that the location on this map is an approximate guide, often to the closest town or village.
The location
Formentera is the smallest of the Spanish Balearic island group, circa six kilometres south of Ibiza in the Mediterranean. Can Carlota is located very near to the capital of Formentera, Sant Francesc. The property is a tasteful conversion from a traditional finca, or farmhouse, and retains many original features. Its previous life also created a lovely setting, amongst cultivated olive groves and palm trees.
Eating out
Can Carlos in Sant Francesc places a great emphasis on incredibly fresh local vegetables and seasonal produce in its clean food offerings. Sant Francesc has many other culinary riches on offer bakeries through to gourmet organic restaurants. Rambling its streets examining the menus is one of the laid back capital's great pleasures.
Juan Y Andrea is the destination beach bar and the island's key location for celebrity-spotting. Its beguiling blend of glamour and simplicity creates the perfect spot for barefoot chic.
The most talked about restaurant on Formentera is Es Moli De La Sal. Situated within a converted salt mill, it offers delicious cuisine with dramatic views.
Things to do
The pretty white sand beaches, many of them clothing optional, have been attracting clued up visitors to Ibiza's little neighbour for decades. Many choose to get out on the water too, with boat day trips offering a different perspective on the island's picturesque coastline.
The island is small enough to be easily explored by moped or even bicycle. The Faro de Barbaria caves feature on most itineraries and stand out as a fascinating attraction even on an island full of geological quirks and photo opportunities.
Live like a local!
Fonda Pepe in Sant Francesc is a historic bar which has long been on the hippy trail and which is still venerated by locals.
