Diederik van Maren has lived in Ibiza for 3 years. He is originally from Amsterdam where he was buying and developing houses. Although he enjoyed his life and work in Amsterdam it just didn’t gave him enough satisfaction. So he decided to move with his wife and their two children to the island.
Diederik discovered Ibiza when he came here for the first time 25 years ago. He instantly fell in love with the island. He lived in many other places around the world, such as London, the Caribbean, Israel and Lebanon, but never found a place that could be compared to Ibiza.
By setting up the construction company Dita Building on the island, he has found fulfillment in his work.
The strength of Dita Building is that they build with their own team of specialized workers and therefore are not dependant on contractors and can work in a fast, structured and efficient way.
The house he has built on the hill at Es Cubells is in one of the most beautiful places on the island, with amazing views over to Formentera. It is a good example of Diederik’s style: clear lines, long unbroken views, all amidst a warm, elegant atmosphere.

Cala Bassa is in the news this month and not precisely because it is the best moment to enjoy the beach from one of CBBC beachbeds – which are fantastic – but because of the arrival of the City of Ibiza quadriathlon to celebrate its 12th edition.
This year it will be 40 years since the first fashion show that gave rise to Pasarela Adlib. To celebrate it, the Island Council has organised an exhibition that it has called 'The Adlib Revolution'.
The best thing is to be an electronic music fanatic and to discover in person how, when, and why Luciano, Carl Cox and Oakenfold managed to become what they are.
The direction taken by the legendary multi-purpose venue last summer pointed to interesting changes with respect to its becoming a platform for music, art, fashion and gastronomy.
