GUIDE
TO IBIZA
When you
think of this lively Balearic island for most, they will associate it with all
night partying! Ibiza has so much more to offer than this.
Here, we
look at all this beautiful isle has for its visitors to enjoy.
Nightlife
There is no
getting away from Ibiza being one of Europe’s premier partying scenes. World
famous DJs flock to this island in the height of the season to entertain the
ever-growing crowds.
San Antonio
is renowned for being the clubbing capital of the island. Here you will find a
whole mix of places to sample; from the real laid back to the more hardcore
venues you will not be short of nightlife here. For the ultimate sunset viewing
on the island be sure to visit Café Mambo. Here you will experience the sunset
over this beautiful island while being entertained by superstar DJs with a
drink or two.
Over the
years Ibiza Town has grown in stature and is proving to be the hotbed of
late-night revelry. Close to Ibiza airport, here you will find Pascha and
Amnesia. In recent times Ibiza Town has seen the emergence of glitzy, upmarket
venues attracting big celebrities to the area. Be prepared to break the budget
to make a visit to Lío but the experience is second to none. Another place
to note is Heart which fuses gastronomy, music and
art all under one roof. Be sure to check these out for the alternative to all
night raving!
For those
who prefer to party during the day the island has several beach and pool
parties to sample. O Beach, Ibiza Rocks, Blue Marlin are all names that most
people wish to visit on their trip to Ibiza. For a more laid-back vibe head up
to Santa Eulalia where you will find Nikki Beach situated next to the very
swanky W Hotel.
Family
Friendly
Ibiza is a
great option for a short haul family holiday. With its short flight time of two
and a half hours from London, if you are travelling with toddlers this makes
for a great option to avoid the long travelling time with small children. High
season here is between April and October with plenty of scheduled flights with
budget airlines to choose from.
With average
temperatures reaching low to high twenties, it makes for a more comfortable
break when travelling with children.
The island
has idyllic beaches to relax on and views to saviour. Suggested resorts to stay
in with the family include Santa Eulalia, Cala Tarida, Es Cana, and Portinatx.
Suggested
resorts to stay at include Insotel Tarida Beach Sensatori Resort in Cala
Tarida, Grand Palladium White Island Resort & Spa in Playa D’En Bossa.
Other
things to do
It is highly
recommended if you don’t mind travelling by boat to venture over to the
neighbouring island of Formentera. It takes approx. 40 mins and there are
multiple crossings a day making it very accessible. Once in Formentera the
popular way to explore the island is by bicycle, although if this is not
feasible there are other options.
