Peter and Joanna’s Mallorca Story: Choosing Los Hibiscus in Mallorca

Los Hibiscus Family

A British family’s decision to create their Mallorca home at Los Hibiscus.

For more than two decades, Los Hibiscus has been a British family’s private sanctuary in the south-east of Mallorca.

It was never built as a speculative holiday house. It was created as a long-term home — a place for children to grow up between cultures, for gatherings under olive trees, and for slow mornings marked by birdsong.

Now, as life naturally evolves toward grandchildren, travel and new priorities, the time has come to pass the finca forward — responsibly and thoughtfully.

Built for All Seasons

Mallorca is not just a summer island. It is a year-round destination.

Los Hibiscus was designed accordingly.

Underfloor heating, full air-conditioning and a fireplace make winter stays warm and comfortable. Thick insulated walls maintain natural climate balance throughout the year.

The 13.5 × 6 m swimming pool is heated via an air source heat pump and includes an integrated solar cover, extending usability well beyond peak season.

This is a home equally suited for:

  • Family holidays
  • Autumn retreats
  • Small workshops
  • Remote work stays
  • Digital nomad residencies

It was built to be used — not left empty.

Energy Responsibility and Operational Stability

A substantial portion of the finca’s electricity consumption is covered by solar panels with on-site battery storage supporting heating, cooling and daily operations.

The property also benefits from a private on-site well and an EV charging point.

This reduces operational dependency and strengthens long-term sustainability.

Leo and his experienced local team handle year-round maintenance, technical oversight, garden care and pool management — and will continue to do so. Continuity is already in place.

For future co-owners, this ensures operational stability from day one.

A Rare Lifetime ETV License

One of the finca’s strongest structural advantages is its lifetime ETV holiday rental license.

In Mallorca’s tightly regulated market, such licenses are increasingly scarce and highly valuable.

Future co-owners are under no obligation to rent. The decision remains entirely theirs.

Should owners choose to activate rental periods when not in residence, the property is well positioned for:

  • Short-term holiday rentals
  • Private celebrations
  • Retreats
  • Corporate off-sites
  • Curated experiences

Rental activity can offset operational costs. However, any significant increase in rental volume naturally reduces private usage. The balance between lifestyle enjoyment and investment return remains a strategic choice for the ownership group.

Prepared for a Shared Future

Peter and Joanna are fully aligned with preparing Los Hibiscus for its next phase.

As part of the transition, selected interior furnishings, the outdoor barbecue area and entertaining spaces will be upgraded to optimise comfort and functionality for multiple families using the property across seasons.

The objective is clear:

To ensure the finca remains vibrant, well maintained and actively used throughout the year.

A Broader Ownership Model

Co-ownership is not about dividing a home.

It is about structured, responsible access.

Instead of one family using the finca only a few weeks per year, several like-minded owners can enjoy defined access rights, professional management and the flexibility to activate rental income when appropriate.

The result is:

  • Higher utilisation
  • Lower individual capital exposure
  • Sustainable operational balance
  • Continued long-term care of the property

Los Hibiscus was built with care.

Now it is ready for a new group of custodians who value Mallorca not only as a destination — but as a long-term base.

Location & Accessibility

The finca is located near Santanyí and Cas Concos in southeast Mallorca.

  • 20 minutes to Es Trenc, Cala d’Or and Cala Mondragó
  • Close to Santanyí market and Cas Concos village
  • Excellent cycling and hiking routes nearby
  • Approximately 30 minutes to Palma Airport

The location offers privacy without isolation — a rare combination for both lifestyle quality and rental appeal.
