Built in the late 18th century, Sant Rafel's typically Ibizan church is perched on a hilltop 300m southeast of the village's main street, surrounded by palms and flowers. Its whitewashed facade and walls make it a local landmark, particularly when floodlit at night. Fronting the church is a pretty little square with fine views down to Dalt Vila.
