It was the dream of the owners to live in the countryside, close to the sea, so they went ahead and did it. Es Cucons was their project. The restoration was challenging, but they have succeeded to a degree that might have been quite unimaginable when they began. They have converted an old finca, dating right back to 1652, into a charming small family hotel. In so doing they have created a refuge for lovers of beautiful buildings, for travellers who seek nature, luxury, romance, relaxation, and of course, the pleasure of good food.
Es Cucons is situated on the northwest side of the island in Plà de Santa Agnès de Corona, quite close to Cala Salada beach yet an easy drive from Ibiza town and the airport. This is the heart of rural Ibiza. Here, from any part of the hotel, you can enjoy beautiful views of the Corona valley, with its famous almond trees and plentiful harvest. The spectacular almond blossom season, in January and February, has resulted in the valley being designated a Rural Area of Special Interest (ANEI) and a Rural Area of Landscape Interest (ARIP). Walking, cycling and hiking paths start from the hotel front doors: Route d'es Falcó, the cliffs of Ses Balandres with views to Ses Margalides islands, Route d'es Plà de Corona ……
In the main building there is a "porxo", a welcoming place for the visitors, a meeting area and a lounge. There is a library with space for reading, TV and fireplace, a bar with cocktail service and a restaurant, where you can enjoy seasonal dishes prepared with care and imagination. There is a large swimming pool for adults and a smaller one for children both carefully integrated into the landscape of the garden. The hotel has availability of a wide range of beauty, health and spa treatments including yoga and pilates.
Es Cucons has 15 rooms: 7 doubles, and 8 suites. Each is equipped with full en-suite bathroom, hair dryer, air conditioning, central heating, direct telephone line, satellite TV with DVD, mini bar and a safe. All the Suites and Junior Suites have a fireplace and DVD/CD equipment. The Superior Suite is a full 70 m2 in size, with one bedroom, a living room, open kitchen fireplace, 2 bathrooms, satellite TV with DVD, and Play Station and CD equipment. There is also a room adapted for a disabled guest. Every room is different in architectural style and decorative detail, but they are all bound by a common theme: the natural elements of an Ibizan country finca.
