Bosc Villa Formentera

Formentera is a small beautiful island in the Balearics, famous for its sea, its beaches of fine white sand and for having been the destination in the 1960s for many hippies who found unspoiled nature and an easy way of life. It is there that we find this magnificent retreat designed by architect Maria Castello. Villa Bosc Formentera is a glass and timber retreat that beds into the rocky terrain and is inspired by a traditional fishing boathouse on the southern coast of Formentera. The contemporary island home has sea views and a series of connecting walkways and courtyards and has a beautiful harmony with the breathtaking environment.
