“Excellent Hotel now to be my second home for all future trips”
I have been traveling to Ibiza since 2002 and have always had a room only. When I was studying Hotel pricing I noticed that this Hotel had very high ratings and was Expedia recommended, yet, was only £4 dearer than my previous Hotel. I noticed that the price included breakfast and evening meal and the location was perfect. A quick calculation showed that I would save around £100 on my 6 day trip not dining out, so, I booked immediately.
Checkin was quick and simple. As I travel alone, I was allocated a single room at the very far end of the Hotel. The room was ideal for me. When I checked the balcony I was gobsmacked as I was at the end of the Hotel closest to the sea with fantastic views up the beach to Ibiza town. At the end of the balcony I could see around the corner right down the beach in the other direction to the watchtower Torre de la Sal Rossa, amazing!
There was a room safe with an electronic combination lock at an extra cost of €4 per day. I did not need to hire a controller for the Air Conditioning. The TV did require the hire of a controller if needed.
The dining room was in the basement and was quite large as it also catered for the smaller Hotel group next door. There was a good selection of food for breakfast; cereals/fruits, continental or cooked breakfast. There was also a good variety for evening meals too. I was quite happy with the food with no complaints.
I will be booking this Hotel for all my future trips to Ibiza as it was ideal for me.
Area recommendations
For clubbers its ideal for Space (right across the street) and Bora Bora a few hundred metres up the beach and not forgetting Tantra Bar. There's a cashpoint on the main road right at the entrance that I didn't notice for a few days.
When to go
I usually avoid July and August as that is the high season with the most expensive prices.
Events and shows
I highly recommend attending The Zoo Project at the Old Abandoned Zoo. Half the price of the big 7 clubs and the only daytime clubbing experience now (starts at 4pm til midnight Wednesdays and Saturdays). Very ethnic, hippy type of atmosphere yet all House music on several stages with chillout areas like an outdoor festival. There's a huge barbeque for a separate charge. Between the various stages on the footpaths there were bean bags, mattresses, cushions, etc. with couples/friends lying/sitting talking. At the end of the night there were even free buses laid on to take customers to San Antonio. Loved the whole experience and will be there on all future visits to the island.
