Cabo Azul, Santa Ponsa: A Bespoke Sea View Apartment with Matterport 3D Tour

The Cabo Azul Santa Ponsa apartment we have just listed as IP2-10811 is one of those properties that stops you the moment you step onto the terrace. Two large dual-aspect terraces of 25 square metres each face south to west, directly over Santa Ponsa Bay and the Malgrats Islands, and on a clear morning the view stretches across the water in a way that reminds you exactly why people choose this part of Mallorca. The apartment itself has been reformed to a standard that is genuinely rare in Santa Ponsa — bespoke handmade wood finishes throughout, a marble kitchen island, underfloor heating across the entire 147 square metres of internal space, and private balconies for every single room. It also comes with two underground parking spaces and a large store room, which in any coastal apartment market anywhere represents a practical advantage that is easy to undervalue until you actually need it.

This is a property that rewards careful inspection — and that is precisely why we have made a full Matterport 3D virtual tour available alongside the standard photography. More on that below.

The Apartment — Layout and Specification

The internal area of 147 square metres has been completely reformed in a recent renovation that treated the space as a blank canvas rather than a cosmetic refresh. The material choices throughout reflect a considered approach to what a high-specification coastal apartment should feel and function like: handmade wood joinery that is custom rather than off-the-shelf, underfloor heating that makes the apartment genuinely comfortable year-round rather than only in summer, and a marble kitchen island that anchors the living space with a quality that photographs well but feels even better in person.

Every room in the apartment has its own private balcony — a detail that sounds simple but is architecturally significant. It means that the connection between interior and exterior is not limited to one or two communal living spaces but distributed across the entire apartment, so that the light, the air and the views from Santa Ponsa Bay are present throughout rather than reserved for a single room. The two main terraces, each of 25 square metres, face south to west and deliver the full panorama across the bay to the Malgrats Islands — an uninhabited nature reserve that sits at the western end of the Santa Ponsa bay and gives the view both scale and a natural endpoint.

The Terraces and the View

The Malgrats Islands — Illa des Malgrat Gran and Illa des Malgrat Petit — are a protected marine reserve off the southwestern tip of Santa Ponsa bay, and the view of them from the terraces of this apartment is one of those aspects of a property that is genuinely difficult to convey in still photography. The islands sit low on the water with the Mediterranean beyond, and the light across the bay changes through the day in a way that means the view from the terrace is never quite the same twice. South to west-facing terraces in Santa Ponsa catch the afternoon and evening sun at the angle that makes outdoor living on the island as good as it gets — warm without being relentless, shaded naturally as the sun moves, and still bright enough for dinner outside well into September.

The dual-aspect configuration of both terraces — facing across two directions rather than one — gives the outdoor space a width and openness that a single-aspect terrace of the same area cannot replicate. Standing on the larger terrace with the bay in front and the sky above, the feeling of space is significantly greater than the square metres alone suggest.

Cabo Azul — The Community

Cabo Azul is a well-regarded residential community within Santa Ponsa, positioned to take advantage of the bay views that this part of the southwest coast delivers. The community is established and well maintained, with the kind of settled residential character that comes from being a genuine year-round address rather than a purely seasonal one. Santa Ponsa's permanent international population — British, German, Scandinavian and Spanish residents who live here throughout the year — gives communities like Cabo Azul a continuity and quality of upkeep that purely tourist-facing developments rarely sustain. The location within Santa Ponsa puts residents within easy reach of the Blue Flag main beach, the Saturday market on Avenida del Rei Jaume I, the three championship golf courses of Golf Santa Ponsa I, II and III, the Club Nautico marina, and the full range of supermarkets, medical facilities, pharmacies and restaurants that make Santa Ponsa one of the most self-sufficient towns in the southwest.

The Matterport 3D Tour — Why It Matters

This apartment is available to view via a full Matterport 3D virtual tour, and for a property of this specification it is a genuinely useful tool rather than a marketing add-on. Matterport technology creates a complete, navigable three-dimensional model of the interior — not a video walkthrough, but an interactive environment in which you move through the space at your own pace, stop in any room, look in any direction, and examine details that a static photograph cannot capture.

For buyers considering a property from outside Mallorca — or from elsewhere on the island without the time for an immediate viewing appointment — the Matterport tour provides a level of spatial understanding that photography alone does not deliver. You can stand in the kitchen and look across to the living area to understand the flow of the open-plan layout. You can position yourself on each terrace and rotate the view to understand the full arc of the panorama. You can assess ceiling heights, room proportions, the quality of the joinery and finishes, and the relationship between the interior spaces in a way that requires a physical visit with still images alone.

It also functions as a practical pre-visit tool for buyers who do intend to view in person — arriving at a property having already spent time in its Matterport tour means the in-person visit can focus on the questions and details that the virtual experience raised, rather than being spent simply orientating to the layout. For a reformed apartment of this specification, where the material quality and the spatial planning are central to understanding the value, the Matterport tour is the right way to begin.

Practical Details

The apartment offers 147 square metres of internal living space across a fully reformed layout. The two main terraces are each 25 square metres, dual-aspect, south to west facing, with direct views over Santa Ponsa Bay and the Malgrats Islands. Every room has a private balcony. Specification includes bespoke handmade wood finishes throughout, underfloor heating across the full internal area, and a marble kitchen island. The sale includes two underground parking spaces and a large store room — a combination that is increasingly difficult to find in the established Santa Ponsa residential market.

Santa Ponsa — The Setting

Santa Ponsa sits approximately 20 kilometres west of Palma on the southwest coast of Mallorca, within the municipality of Calvia. The Blue Flag main beach is over 500 metres wide with calm, shallow water. Three 18-hole championship golf courses — Golf Santa Ponsa I, II and III — sit within the residential zone, making this the highest concentration of championship golf on the island. The Club Nautico marina at Cala Sa Caleta, the historic landing point of King Jaume I in 1229, accommodates a range of vessels and operates a year-round sailing and social programme. Palma airport is approximately 20 minutes by car, and the capital's full range of services, culture and nightlife is within easy reach.

For a property buyer who wants a reformed, move-in-ready apartment with genuine sea views, substantial outdoor space and the full Santa Ponsa lifestyle on the doorstep, IP2-10811 in Cabo Azul represents a compelling and immediately liveable proposition.
