Natalia Faeh is a luxury property rental agent in Ibiza. In a report by The Sunday Times on this sector and the increase in thefts in rental villas in summer, she explains not only some of the cases of assaults that she has had to manage together with tenants and police, but also some of the anecdotes, oddities and quirks of which he has witnessed and starred by these millionaire guests.
Faeh explains that his clients range from European billionaires to Middle Eastern royalty. “I’ve seen some disgusting things“, is almost the first thing he explains in the report of the British newspaper.
According to her own experience, the agent tells that she has worked with famous soccer players who have not had a very civic attitude in the villages: “They consumed a large amount of alcohol, narcotics and prostitutes“a mismatch that sometimes ends in thefts inside the property given the laxity in controlling who enters and who leaves the homes when parties are held there almost every day.
“Blood everywhere.”
Natalia, 50 years old and from Ukraine, does not detail names but details strange situations she has experienced in her work.
A client from the Middle East, she says, stayed at a luxury villa in Ibiza with his wife. She caught him one day sleeping with another woman, so he took a glass bottle and threw it at her unfaithful husbandso unluckily that it hit the protective glass of an expensive painting and in trying to fix the mess the wife ended up cutting herself pretty badly. “When I arrived, there was blood everywhere. I told them, ‘I want you all out of here in four hours,'” the agent details.
He assures that his clients from the Middle East often arrive on the island in their private planes “full of luxury prostitutes from all over Europe”“and that this has caused her several headaches. Natalia Faeh explains that these men can quickly tire of some of these prostitutes and they are suddenly left stranded on the island, so the real estate agent is in charge of arranging for them to return to their places of origin.
One of Faeh’s regular clients is a Latin American billionaire. He leaves his wife at home and arrives in Ibiza accompanied by a group of young men with bodybuilders’ bodies who take turns in his bed. He has a fleet of sports cars in a garage in Malaga, which he brings to the island by ferry. “He’s very charming and very cultured,” Faeh tells The Sunday Times, adding how he once flew in an opera singer from Barcelona to entertain at his home. “She sang Carmen.”
On the other hand, he does not have fond memories of a milanese multimillionaire who rented a villa for three months during the pandemic, but he was rarely seen: he spent most of his time in the bedroom, allegedly taking drugs. “I was worried he would commit suicide there,” he recalls. His concern was justified. He died of a heart attack two weeks after returning to Milan.
Not all of his clients are troublemakers or ‘partiers’. Faeh’s Oracle Edition often receives businessmen looking for a romantic setting to propose to their partners or to spend a quiet vacation in Ibiza.
