Long before Figueretas became one of Ibiza's most desirable waterfront addresses, one family chose this exact stretch of coastline to build their home.
Known simply as The Fifth, this apartment occupies the top floor of what is believed to be the first residential building constructed along the Figueretas seafront. Built in 1953 by the producer of Ibiza's famous Hierbas Mari Mayans as a family legacy, legend has it that the five-storey building was designed so that each of his five sons would one day own an entire floor. More than seventy years later, it remains one of the island's quietly remarkable addresses.
On the top fifth floor, this renovated apartment enjoys one of the most privileged positions in Figueretas. Few homes in Ibiza can genuinely claim to sit directly on the beach. The Fifth is one of them.
From the living room, bedroom and terrace, uninterrupted views stretch across the bay towards Playa d'en Bossa, Dalt Vila and the sparkling Mediterranean beyond. Below, the beach begins just metres from the building, creating an extraordinary connection with the sea that very few properties on the island can offer.
The apartment comprises one bedroom, one bathroom, and a sleek modern open plan kitchen. At the rear, an enclosed terrace has been transformed into a practical home office, creating valuable additional living space without compromising the apartment's bright, open feel. Recent improvements include a new kitchen, new boiler and external blinds.
Although wonderfully peaceful, everything is within easy reach. The beachfront promenade, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities are moments from your front door, while Ibiza Town and its UNESCO-listed old quarter can be reached with a leisurely waterfront walk. The apartment also benefits from access to the rooftop, offering yet another spectacular perspective across Ibiza's coastline.

Location
Figueretas has long been one of Ibiza's most authentic waterfront neighbourhoods, offering the rare combination of beachfront living and genuine year-round life. Its palm-lined promenade is lined with cafés, restaurants and local shops, while the golden sand and calm Mediterranean waters lie directly outside your front door.
From here, Ibiza Town, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Dalt Vila and Playa d'en Bossa are all within comfortable walking distance, making a car almost unnecessary. Whether enjoying an early morning swim, lunch overlooking the sea or an evening stroll into the historic centre, few locations on the island offer such an effortless connection between the beach, the city and everyday life.
