Accommodating up to eight guests, this modern and stylish property features everything you and your family will need to enjoy a relaxing and memorable stay on one of Spain’s most celebrated islands. The interior is decorated in dazzling white throughout and is complete with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors along the front that flood the living spaces with plenty of light and allow for seamless indoor-to-outdoor living. The gorgeous lounge space has a flatscreen TV, contemporary-style white furnishings, and plush sofas in shades of white and deep purple that are just begging to be relaxed!
Your entire party can enjoy delicious indoor meals in the villa’s separate kitchen/diner, which features a glossy black and white decor and incorporates a circular dining table and a well-equipped kitchen space that is bursting with modern, integrated appliances such as an oven and hob, microwave, coffee maker, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and a washing machine.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa OrtigaVilla Ortiga is located just metres from Santandria Beach, a stunning stretch of golden sands and palm trees set in a narrow rocky bay. The waters here are clear and shallow, making it a great spot for paddling and swimming. There are some handy amenities here, including sun loungers and parasols in the central part of the beach, as well as toilets and showers. The beach can get crowded during peak season, especially over the weekend, but during the week, it should be easy to find a nice quiet spot to enjoy. At the beach, it’s possible to rent water bikes to explore the bay or to visit the neighbouring beach of Sa Caleta, and there are often diving trips organised from here. If you’re here for the day and want to eat, there are three restaurants close to the beach, all offering varied menus and fantastic views of the bay.
Less than 2 km away is the former island capital of Ciutadella, which is well worth a visit during your stay. Famous for its historic harbour, street art culture and gentle buzzing nightlife, the pastel-hued streets make a refreshing change from the typical white-washed towns of the region and are dotted with little shops and delis where you can pick up some local produce to enjoy back at the villa. Oliver recommends heading down to the marina during your stay, where you’ll find a variety of cafes and restaurants serving up delicious fare to suit all tastes and budgets, as well as offering spectacular views.
From the harbour, you’ll be able to book boat trips to explore more of the coastline - including a full-day trip lunch and a unique swimming and snorkelling experience on a 10-metre wooden sailboat. It’s worth knowing that highly-rated and affordable trips are incredibly popular, so it’s worth booking early so that you don’t miss out!
Playa Cala Blanca is the main beach here, a golden sandy stretch that is a fabulous location for enjoying some of the best sunsets in the Med and a great spot for spending a day soaking up the sun. The beach is popular with families thanks to its warm, calm, clear waters, soft sands, and amenities that include sun-lounger and umbrella hire, as well as with those who love to snorkel! There are plenty of bars, cafes and restaurants nearby for refreshments, as well as gift shops - and even an Irish pub!

Note
Please be aware that the location tab shown on the website is not based on the property's exact location; therefore, all location amenities are an approx of facilities, restaurants, and villages/towns you might find around the property. The property's exact location will be provided to you before arrival and might come along with some recommendations about the area and what to visit.
THE REGION
Ciutadella's historical city is located on Menorca's extreme west coast. It used to be the capital of culture and commerce in Menorca, and although it has not been this for a long while, it is still a very attractive city with a wonderful heritage and real appeal.
Visit Es Born, the historic part of the city. If you like culture and historic churches, medieval-looking streets all accompanied by traditional Spanish restaurants, make sure you take a look on your stay. The mix is perfect with most tastes in music catered and perfect for late-night entertainment.
Ciutadella doesn't have its own beach, but just 3 kilometres away are the small beaches of Cala Santandria and Sa Caleta and further afield are Cala'n Blanes, Cala'n Forcat, Cala Blanca and Cala'n Bosch.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesSet in a pretty residential area just metres from the beach and amenities such as shops, bars and restaurants, Villa Ortiga is a great accommodation choice for families with children. Flatscreen satellite TVs in most rooms, WiFi connection and air-conditioning will ensure that the little ones are entertained and comfortable during those times when they need to be indoors, and the outdoor spaces are enclosed and private for parents’ peace of mind. Eating outside as a family is made easy thanks to a covered porch, which means the kids can stay out of the sun to enjoy their meal, and there’s lots of room for them to play while the adults are relaxing or chatting. Children will be delighted to find a private pool waiting for them here, and it’s easily accessible via steps and includes a charming waterfall feature. While the pool is located close to the front of the property and outdoor lounge area, making it easy for parents to keep an eye on the kids in the water, it’s worth noting that the pool isn’t fenced, so young children will need to be well supervised while playing on the terrace to prevent accidents.
A trip to the beach is a must if you are holidaying in Menorca with the kids, and the nearby sandy stretch at Santandria is a delightful place to spend the day, with good amenities and clear, shallow waters. If you want to take a break from the sun, sea and sand, there are some good family-friendly restaurants nearby, as well as shops for grabbing some essentials. The nearby city of Ciutadella is within easy distance of the villa and is a great place to visit if you want to introduce the children to some history and culture. Oliver recommends taking them to Fortaleza de la Mola, a fascinating 19th-century fortress that is bound to impress kids of all ages. Younger children will love running around and exploring this imposing structure - and in fact, are encouraged to by the staff here, so it’s great for letting them burn off some energy. It’s best to visit here in the early morning or late in the afternoon, as the temperature can soar around midday, and there are few shaded areas.
