Isla del Mar

Isla del Mar is the largest of four volcanic islands situated in the Mar de Menor, a 20 by 10 mile lagoon protected from the open sea by the sand strip of La Manga.

The Island is a nature reserve with 220 acres of gentle hilly land. The highest of its four peaks rises to 330 feet above sea level with spectacular panoramic views. The coast offers numerous small beaches and excellent conditions for swimming and diving in the clear waters or exploring the other islands using one of the boats.

The accommodation is in three buildings:
The old Watchtower, which was rebuilt in the 1950’s by the late Duke of Torres to create a ‘folly’ with designs of the American architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
The cottage near the main ‘club’ house which houses the main living room and dining room area and The Old Chapel.  Down on the beach is The Boathouse which offers cooking facilities including cooker, freezer, barbecue and open fireplace with chairs, tables and a wc/shower.

The island is self-supporting in respect of solar-powered electricity and running water and has always been maintained to protect nature by the same owner-family. This is a peaceful, unspoiled retreat where all you need is your swimsuit and your toothbrush.
