We love the laid-back yet chic Mediterranean vibe of Ibiza. Just meander around the craggy coastline from cove to cove, eating fresh squid and soaking up the sun.
The island is beyond famous for its unbeaten nightlife, with clubs and bars ranging from rustic shacks to mega-clubs, but there is much more to the Balearic beauty than that. Ibiza Town, the island’s capital, has beautiful architecture and winding back streets filled with restaurants to explore whilst on a luxury villa holiday here.
Over half the island is covered in pine forest, and there are more than fifty beaches, some only accessible by boat. The northeast is known for its unspoilt rural beauty, and the hippy vibe lives on at Es Cana market, and the Sunday drumming parties on Benirras beach.
Ibiza has a typically Mediterranean climate. It is generally dry and mild during the winter months with low rainfall. In the summer months of July and August, daytime temperatures typically get into the mid-30s.
The island has an airport southwest of Ibiza Town, named Ibiza Airport (IBZ).
It’s all about fresh ingredients and strong simple flavours in this Mediterranean paradise. There’s nothing to beat freshly cooked paella at one of Ibiza’s many wonderful beach bars and restaurants for a lazy lunch out of your luxury villa.
Featuring whatever meat, game or seafood has been caught that day, it has many variations. You can eat like a king, indulging in the famed hospitality, our first choice is a succulent ray fresh from the ocean.
There are numerous excellent restaurants scattered around the island, offering everything from sublime sophistication to rustic simplicity. Local Ibizan dishes include delicious fish stews and aromatic pork dishes.
Try La Paloma in Sant Llorenc – a highly regarded family restaurant serving local specialities, or Bambuddha Grove in Santa Eulalia for an Oriental flavour. For a classic taste of Ibiza, go to Es Bigotes, a famous seaside shack where the freshest fish stews are made from the catch of the day.
Or if you prefer to dine in, have whatever your heart desires in one of our luxury villas in Ibiza with a private chef.
A stay in one of our beautiful, luxury Ibiza villas away from the crowds of hedonistic clubbers, the idyllic, rural heart of Ibiza beats on. Most visitors flock to the hotspots of San Antonio, Santa Eulalia and Ibiza Town, but there are many quiet and charming areas to explore, particularly in the northeast of the island.
This Balearic island has been a pleasure seekers’ destination since hippies arrived in the sixties. They fell in love with its wild, rocky coastline, sheltered sandy coves and dense woodlands. The charming little villages with whitewashed churches, fragrant olive groves and elegant fincas are still there to be discovered.
