The House that Terry Thomas built up.
The “House on the Hill” has a most interesting story to tell, for it was discovered by none other than Terry Thomas, one of Britain’s best loved comic actors.
He fell in love with the place one day whilst riding horseback with his wife. It was love at first sight for them both and you can easily see why. As it looks out from its privileged spot the Can Talaias is lord and master over all that it surveys – unspoilt nature, and Mediterranean pine forests. Below lies San Carlos surrounded by beautiful villages and caves with only a few houses and vineyards nearby.
Following his death in 1990 it was turned over into a rural hotel, one with all the trappings of chic and class. Its seven ensuite double rooms have a touch of style that Terry Thomas would approve, yet with the typical warm colours of Ibiza - orange and ochre - ever present.
For no little amount of luxury combined with a typical Balearic atmosphere and those simply wonderful views, the Can Talaias is an excellent option.
Can Talaias is a very special place.
We loved the stunning location with sea views and the beautiful gardens. The swimming pool is an outstanding feature of the property.
Our room was very comfortable and quirky with original features and a Juliet balcony overlooking the terrace with a sea view.
The owners are very welcoming , friendly and easy going with great local knowledge of the island. We felt like we were staying in a family home rather than a faceless hotel .
We will be returning - what a wonderful find !

This is a calm small country hotel which you will like if you don't mind driving up a romantic small unpaved road and if you like the calmness. The owners and staff are great and it is super that you can enjoy a drink 24/7 and you can order diner and lunch.
We would consider going again
