While Ibiza and Majorca both offer farmhouse-turned-villa rentals in all shapes and sizes, comparable options on the less visited and easternmost Balearic island of Minorca are not as plentiful.

That makes Finca Bellavista, a five-bedroom homestead on the island’s southwest side, about a 20-minute drive from the medieval town of Ciutadella, a welcome addition.

Opened by the French hotelier Arnaud Zannier, it’s the latest property from Zannier Private Estates, his family’s collection of bookable residences that includes a 10-bedroom chateau near Saint-Tropez and a vineyard in northern Portugal.

This new spot feels similarly rooted in its rural setting — braided baskets, unpolished wooden furnishing and locally sourced antiques warm up the meticulously renovated farmhouse’s lime-washed interiors, and over 120 private acres of plains, forest and farmland lie between its front porch and the sea.

“I visited several properties around the island and fell in love with this one,” Zannier says. “The building embodies typical Minorcan traditions — the large chiminea, the flat roof terrace and the iconic white coating — and it’s so remote.”

But while it may have rustic appeal, it is not without an outdoor pool and a private chef. Guests will also want to avail themselves of a secluded pathway on the grounds that snakes to one of Minorca’s most pristine coves, Playa de Son Saura, and connects to the Camí de Cavalls, a walking route that encircles the whole of the island and passes right in front the estate.

1. I saw this on Instagram and thought it was hilarious:

2. I was interviewed on the This or That Podcast about How I Make A Living As A Witch

3. I went to the beach and was in awe of nature

4. My private chef (AKA my husband) made me this meal and it blew my tongue’s mind with FLAVOR!

2. Title of a Think Piece on my website about marketing – links to the article on my blog and probably has a podcast episode associated with it.

Here’s my pitch or whatever.
