Villa Trudis is located in the geographical heart of the island, making it perfectly situated to reach everything you wish to do in Ibiza. One of the less known benefits of the island is its easy exploration, as the island is truly small but mighty. Driving from top to bottom would take you only an hour and around 30 minutes to drive from east to west! Furthermore, Villa Trudis is just 15 minutes from the airport, so it won't be long after landing that you can put your suitcase away and your feet up!
When it comes to eating out, you are in for a treat in Ibiza. The island is host to many restaurants serving a range of food, and the cuisine on offer has been globally influenced, so there is always something for you to eat. Try traditional local dishes or stick to something you know you'll love; everything is available here in Ibiza. Villa Trudis is within walking distance to a restaurant, as one is just 2km away from the villa doors – just a 4-minute drive. 3km away is where you will find the local village of Santa Gertrudis de Fruitera will provide you with even more options for restaurants, cafes, and bars. The closest supermarket to Villa Trudis is just 1.5km away, too, so you can easily stock up on snacks or food for the house.
Santa Gertrudis has expanded rapidly in recent years but remains quaint and traditional, and the main square is looked over by a traditional whitewashed fortress church. The plaza here is pedestrian-friendly and adds to the village's welcoming, bustling vibe. There are plenty of little cafes to sit outside of and sip a coffee, just like the locals love to do.
Villa Trudis is just 9km from the capital city of Ibiza, Ibiza Town. Here is just one of the many spots where you will genuinely see Ibiza's nightlife scene that it is known for, as entertainment companies have naturally gravitated towards the larger cities. That's not all this wonderful capital has to offer, though, as it is home to Ses Figueretes and Platja d'en Bossa, just two of Ibiza's incredible white sand beaches with clear sparkling waters.
Consider driving north to the coastline and visiting Puerto de San Miguel. Here you find another incredible warm sand beach where you can go snorkelling to see the many fish, but that's not all. Sign up at the local diving school and learn to go diving to see even more of the ocean's depths. There are also a number of well-regarded restaurants, bars, and shops here, so you can truly make a day out of it – if not a few!

The Region
At the geographical heart of the island, the village of Santa Gertrudis is Ibiza as a microcosm. Steeped in tradition, the main square is overlooked by the whitewashed fortress church with its distinctive yellow tower and surrounded by a cluster of bars, restaurants and shops. Meanwhile, the rich agricultural landscape surrounding the village is home to fruit orchards, sheep, goats and the island's only dairy cows.
The town itself is an attraction. Nearby is the gorgeous Benirrás beach with its beach club Elements Ibiza and hippie bongo drummers playing as the sun goes down on Sundays. Shopping is hard to resist with many lovely boutiques and the auction house Casi Todo to pick up some antiques. There are several annual festivals in Santa Gertrudis, including the Domingo del Arte art festival and the blessing of the animals in the church.
