Authentic Ibicencan retreat in the heart of the Island with tennis court next to UNVRS

Located in the heart of the island, Sant Rafel de sa Creu is a charming and peaceful village that perfectly captures the authentic spirit of Ibiza. Surrounded by rolling countryside, pine forests and traditional fincas, the area offers a tranquil setting while remaining exceptionally well connected to the island’s main destinations.

The village is situated between Ibiza Town and Sant Antoni, making it an ideal base for those who appreciate the peace and character of rural Ibiza without wanting to be far from the island’s vibrant social life. Both Ibiza Town and Sant Antoni can be reached within a short drive, while many of the island’s beaches, restaurants and leisure facilities are also easily accessible.

At the heart of Sant Rafel stands its traditional whitewashed church, Iglesia de Sant Rafel, which dates back to the 18th century and is recognised as a Bien de Interés Cultural. From the church and surrounding area, there are beautiful views across the countryside towards the Mediterranean and the distant island of Formentera.

Sant Rafel is particularly appreciated for its peaceful atmosphere, authentic Ibicencan architecture and rural surroundings. The village itself offers a selection of local cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with traditional houses, agricultural land and beautifully preserved rural landscapes.

With its central location, easy access to Ibiza Town and Sant Antoni, and its genuine island character, Sant Rafel de sa Creu is an appealing choice for those looking to experience a quieter and more authentic side of Ibiza while remaining close to everything the island has to offer.
