Finca Can Martí is a 400-year-old organic farmstead turned boutique eco-hotel, tucked away in the quiet north of Ibiza, near the village of Sant Joan de Labritja. Far removed from the island’s party scene, Can Martí offers an oasis of peace in the protected valley of Es Amunts, where pine-covered hills and almond groves stretch for miles. The ethos here is “slow down to the pace of nature” – and everything about the property encourages guests to do exactly that. The hotel comprises a cluster of whitewashed Ibicencan buildings and a few standalone casitas (cottages), all restored with rustic charm and ecological principles. Can Martí offers just 8 accommodations (suites and two-bedroom casitas), each with its own boho-chic style: think natural stone floors, wooden ceiling beams, handcrafted furniture, and private garden terraces perfumed by lavender and jasmine. There’s no rush, no roar of traffic – only the sounds of birds, cicadas, and the farm animals from time to time. Waking up here, you might step outside to find peacocks strolling by or spot Ibiza’s rare Ibicenco chickens in the orchards. True to being an “authentic agroturismo,” Finca Can Martí is a fully operational organic farm that strongly practices permaculture and regenerative agriculture. The property’s extensive gardens and orchards provide a cornucopia of fruits, vegetables, and herbs for guests to enjoy. There’s an aromatic herb garden, rows of citrus and fig trees, and seasonal crops from tomatoes and zucchinis to watermelons – all grown without chemicals. Guests are welcome to wander the grounds and even participate: pick oranges for your morning juice, or help the gardener pull some carrots from the rich red soil. An on-site organic farm shop sells the finca’s produce and homemade products (jams, olive oil, natural cosmetics), embodying the “homegrown to homemade” philosophy. Each morning, a generous breakfast is served under the vine-covered terrace, featuring just-picked fruits, free-range eggs (collected from Can Martí’s hens), local cheeses, and oven-warm breads. Many ingredients come straight from the permaculture garden to your plate, highlighting flavors at their peak. This farm-to-table freshness is a highlight for guests, who often comment on how tasting a simple organic Ibiza tomato or olive here is a revelation. Importantly, Can Martí’s organic approach extends to the natural pool: the property boasts a gorgeous chemical-free freshwater swimming pool filtered entirely by plants and mineral substrates. Swimming in it feels like a dip in a clear pond – no chlorine smell, just dragonflies flitting across the water lilies and absolute relaxation. Finca Can Martí takes sustainability seriously in every aspect. Electricity is generated via a large array of solar panels, making the finca largely solar-powered under the Ibiza sun. Water is sourced from a local well and rainwater collection system, then carefully filtered; greywater is reused for irrigation in the gardens. The accommodations were renovated with natural materials and traditional techniques – thick stone walls for insulation, use of certified wood, and eco-friendly paints. All amenities, from the toiletries to the linens, are organic and toxin-free. The finca even has its own waste management and composting setup to ensure minimal landfill contribution. These efforts come together so guests can “slow down organically” and feel good about their stay, knowing it’s leaving minimal impact on Ibiza’s fragile environment. Can Martí has been recognized in sustainable travel circles and is often cited as a model for circular, off-the-grid luxury in the Balearic Islands. Despite the rural setting, well-being and leisure are at the forefront of the Can Martí experience. The finca features an open-air yoga deck where complimentary yoga classes are held several times a week, usually in the soft morning light as the valley awakens. Massage and holistic therapies can be arranged in a dedicated treatment haima (tent) or even in the privacy of your suite. Many guests enjoy taking the e-bikes or mountain bikes (available on-site) to explore the surroundings – perhaps biking 10 minutes to the bohemian Sant Joan village for its famous Sunday market, or venturing further to one of Ibiza’s secluded northern coves like Cala Xarraca for a swim in the turquoise sea. The hotel staff also offer guided nature walks through nearby forests and hills, pointing out medicinal plants and special viewpoints. Within the property, you can play a leisurely game of pétanque under the palms, relax in one of several “zen zones” with daybeds and hammocks scattered around the gardens, or take a short walk to meet the resident animals (besides poultry, the finca keeps animals like donkeys or goats which help in land management – much to the delight of animal-loving guests). In the evening, under starry skies, Can Martí often hosts communal dinners or BBQs where guests gather family-style – lit by lanterns and entertained by friendly conversation and perhaps a local guitarist. It’s a convivial atmosphere that nonetheless respects those seeking solitude. Notably, children are welcome at Can Martí (it’s family-friendly, with two-bedroom units perfect for families and plenty of space for kids to safely roam and discover), yet the ambiance remains peaceful and grown-up due to the finca’s ample grounds and ethos of tranquility. Overall, Finca Can Martí offers a rare blend of authenticity, comfort, and eco-conscious living. It invites guests to connect with “the authentic, rural Ibiza, tastefully fusing farm and hotel life, sustainability and luxury, comfort and calm.” In doing so, it exemplifies the E-E-A-T principles: The owners and staff demonstrate deep Expertise in sustainable farming and hospitality (with over 20 years as a pioneering eco-hotel on Ibiza), the guest Experience is consistently one of discovery, rejuvenation, and inspiration (as evidenced by glowing reviews in major publications), the property holds Authoritativeness as a flagship eco-retreat (often listed among top eco-hotels in Europe), and above all, it establishes Trust through transparent green practices and heartfelt, personal service. For travelers seeking to see a gentler, more soulful side of Ibiza – one of yoga at sunrise, organic gardens, and star-lit silence – Finca Can Martí is the ideal haven. It proves that luxury can be simple, sustainable, and profoundly connected to the earth. As a guest, you don’t just visit Can Martí – you slow down, breathe deeply, and truly live in harmony with Ibiza’s natural rhythms.
