ByJennifer Fernández Solano Ibiza is known for legendary parties led by world-famous DJs that attract revelers from around the globe during the summer But there’s more to the Spanish island than endless nightlife and crowded summer beaches Those seeking a more tranquil escape will uncover the other side of Ibiza in the spring and early fall once the revelers have gone home and the clubs have entered their deep repose While many Ibiza visitors are distracted with all-night dance parties, active souls at the Nobu Hotel can join three-night holistic hiking retreats in April, May, June, September and October, where invigorating hikes and wellness experiences offer relaxation in a natural setting. The hotel also provides yoga sessions at sunrise and sunset, held against the peaceful backdrop of Talamanca Bay. Here’s a guide to what to do in Ibiza on a three-day escape beyond the clubs and commotion. Inside the stylish and sophisticated Nobu a beach club with straw huts and comfortable loungers where you’ll settle into the Ibiza groove roam the boardwalk to the right until you get to a street crossing continue your hour-long journey along Passeig Joan Carles I before taking Avinguda de Santa Eulària des Riu which will lead you to the heart of the city Take a walk around the fortified old town of Dalt Vila Make your way up to Dalt Vila by crossing the city gates and go to the medieval castle for hilltop views of the city below get lost in the maze of laneways and plazas housing eclectic international restaurants and shops selling clothing exemplifying Ibiza’s bohemian party style Once the Dalt Vila visit is over, return to the hotel for an unforgettable meal at Nobu Ibiza Bay you will have worked up enough of an appetite to enjoy the omakase menu that changes regularly you shouldn’t miss the freshwater eel nigiri the world-famous black cod with miso and the beef toban yaki Pair them with the kaffir lime and lychee martini or one of Nobu’s other signature cocktails Your second day should begin with breakfast at Chambao by the Beach inside by the scrumptious buffet or at the sand-covered terrace letting you live out your barefoot luxury dreams Don’t leave without trying the Matsuhisa Benedict (freshly poached eggs on crispy tofu with snow crab Finish on a sweet note with a chocolate-filled ensaimada a local spiral-shaped pastry sprinkled with powdered sugar While wine tasting may not have been on your Ibiza-activity radar, the island has a burgeoning scene with five wineries and nearly 90 acres of vineyards. Pay a visit to Ibizkus a winery established in 2007 that follows a sustainable winemaking approach which includes hand-picking the grapes and employing dry-farming techniques This style of farming allows the roots of the plants to grow deep into the ground resulting in more minerals and less acidity in the wine On the main road between Ibiza and Santa Eulalia Ibizkus is open year-round and offers wine tastings at noon on Mondays and Saturdays and two seatings (noon and 5 p.m.) from Tuesday to Friday This bakery sells two local delicacies: flaó a cheesecake made from fresh goat and sheep cheese with a hint of spearmint a bell-pepper tart that some consider the precursor to pizza If you’re visiting around the beginning or end of summer you may run into a fair with stalls dotting this area selling clothing exuding Ibiza chic and food from around the world near the aforementioned Restaurant Street A Bes Talamanca meal is a great way to end a day Keep walking toward the beach and grab a seat facing the sea at Iza Restaurant Bar to watch the world go by with a cocktail in hand Finish your Santa Eulalia expedition with a stroll by the river a popular activity for families with children Next on the agenda is some well-deserved R&R back at the hotel, whether on a Balinese bed by the pool, at the pool bar or in the hammam at the Ibiza Bay Spa by Six Senses End your day on a high note at the nearby Bes Talamanca for some of the freshest seafood on the island Housed in a white manor with bright blue doors along the wooden walkway behind the hotel this restaurant serves a memorable salt-baked seabass You won’t regret ordering the shrimp ceviche marinated Peruvian style with leche de tigre or a uramaki sushi roll as well the restaurant hosts flamenco shows on Saturdays around 9:30 p.m consider visiting a cala (cove or bay) if you still have time before making your way to the airport but the calas’ clear turquoise hues and natural beauty are undeniably great spots for photos Cala Blanca and Cala Llonga are all just a 15- to 20-minute cab ride away from the luxury hotel Cabs tend to arrive quickly but allow enough time for a leisurely trip since the calas are north of the hotel and the airport is south A 22-year-old Dutchman was arrested at Ibiza airport, trying to enter the island with two suitcases filled to the brim with ecstasy pills. It is not clear how the man slipped through Dutch customs with the 50-kilogram load of drugs, RTL Nieuws reports. The Spanish authorities are extra alert on Ibiza at the moment because it is the start of the club and festival season. They noticed the 22-year-old Dutchman because he was traveling alone, but had two suitcases that were both heavier than expected for a tourist. When they opened the suitcases, they were filled to the brim with ecstasy pills, covered only by the zip-up partition in the suitcases. The Spanish police estimate that there were over 163,000 pills in the suitcases. They appear to all be ecstasy, though some had a “2CB” logo printed on them. 2CB is an abbreviation for the drug “tusi,” which is very popular in exclusive clubs in Spain. The Spanish authorities consider tusi to be more dangerous than ecstasy. The drug consists of a varying mix of MDMA, ketamine, and cocaine, sometimes supplemented with methamphetamine and caffeine. Because the proportions vary, people who take tusi don’t know in advance what the effect will be. For that reason, the police and judiciary are harsher on tusi sellers, makers, and smugglers. According to RTL, the 50 kilograms of drugs could get the Dutchman between 3 and 9 years in prison. The street value of the drugs was estimated between 1.3 and 3 million euros. © 2012-2025, NL Times, All rights reserved. Notifications can be managed in browser preferences.

Read our Privacy notice A British tourist has died at a popular Ibiza hotel after suffering a cardiac arrest in her room The 33-year-old woman was staying at Ibiza Rocks Hotel in the party resort of San Antonio where she died on Wednesday Paramedics and police rushed to the three-star resort and spent around 40 minutes trying to revive her but she died at the scene, the same newspaper reported. She reportedly had a cardioverter defibrillator implant, which is used to monitor the heartbeat and treat abnormal heart rhythms. It came just days after a 19-year-old Italian tourist plunged to her death from the fourth storey of the same hotel. It was reported that she was locked out of her hotel room and tried reaching it through a shared balcony but lost her footing and fell. Last year, a teenage British tourist died after falling from a different hotel balcony in the early hours of the morning. She fell from the sixth floor of the four-star Hotel Vibra District, just 300m away from the beach in San Antonio, Ibiza.

We had a tough game against Leipzig to prepare. Maybe after [the title] I could have an opinion, but before that there was no discussion about a party. We’re not champions yet, so we have to wait,” Kompany said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia) When asked about if the monumental goal differential advantage has him already feeling like a champion Kompany was not ready to take any pats on the back just yet “That was a discussion within the coaching staff after the game I’m someone who says there’s still a 0.1% chance that we don’t win it so we have to do our job and wait until the last moment but I want to keep the focus and win the remaining two games.” Looking for more thoughts and discussion on Bayern Munich’s wild 3-3 draw with RB Leipzig?

insights 10:53am EDTShareSaveCommentScallops with red shrimp More make for a beautiful appetizer at Ibiza It’s been six years since Ibiza Kitchen opened in Chappaqua and despite Covid and all the woes of the current restaurant industry it remains one the best modern Spanish restaurants in America I’ve been familiar with owner Ignacio Blanco’s ascendency since he opened Meigas in TriBeCa twenty-five years ago has always been in the avant-garde without toppling over into the kind of modernist gimmickry fostered by Ferran Adrià the menu has become more refined for a suburban clientele that includes Chappaqua residents Bill and Hillary Clinton author of Sunset in a Glass: Adventures of a Food and Wine Road Warrior in Spain contends Ibiza is the closest to the finest restaurants he’s been to in Spain where Martinez traveled extensively after cooking stints in New York The modest room and bar are a pleasantly lighted backdrop to the colors of the food and drinks served at Ibiza are thoroughly grounded in Iberian food culture and adamantly based on seasonality Best thing to do is leave the meal up to Blanco and the chef to decide because the night’s specials are among the best on the menu You may begin simply with a platter of charcuteries including Iberian ham then sautéed hen of the woods mushrooms with a citrusy carrot puree If you love Spanish ceviche they serve briny wild shrimp

complicated relationship with tourism today The thing that might surprise you about Ibiza is the quiet there are pockets of tranquillity all over the island Walking along the nature trail between and behind two of its most famous beaches – Es Cavallet and Ses Salines – you hear nothing but the chirp of cicadas and the soft whisper of the Mediterranean if you turn away from the dunes and pinewoods the salt pans that dominate this southern tip of the island with an almost eerie stillness a flamingo or two standing like ornaments on the mirror-like water As with many parts of Ibiza – from the hilly forests of the north to the views of the rocky islet of Es Vedrà in the south – it is easy to feel like you have passed into another world when the sky becomes gold and whatever clouds are around become luminous lines of orange-like furrows in some heavenly field Yet this was an Ibiza I never really sought to discover when I lived and worked here in the 1990s I worked for the largest club night on the island Manumission at the colossal Privilege club The late 90s are now considered to have been Ibiza’s wildest decade Space and Amnesia still had their magic and were run by a pretty chaotic band of entrepreneurial club promoters rather than the slick brand managers who handle things today Ibiza Town was declared a world heritage site in 1999 Photograph: Jorg Greuel/Getty ImagesThis was when San Antonio’s Café del Mar was not only a place to sip beer while watching the sunset but also had its own series of best-selling compilation albums that almost single-handedly popularised the concept of “chillout music” It was the era of Sky TV’s messy documentary series Ibiza Uncovered of sensationalist tabloid stories about Radio 1 DJs and pop stars going missing after wild benders Ibiza hadn’t yet scrubbed up its reputation yoga retreats and luxury holidays had yet to take hold in the imagination of the British public From the hilly forests of the north to the views of the south – it is easy to feel like you have passed into another world During this time I sold tickets at bars in San Antonio and Ibiza Town fresh from overthinking my way through a master’s degree I’d only taken to delay joining the real world I was increasingly dependent on alcohol and drugs until But things didn’t stay stable for long – I spiralled and had to return home I had the therapy I should have had back then The plan was to drive through France so we could take our dogs And so this was a different me visiting what had become a different place with the safety of my favourite people and animals around me We got happily lost amid the streets of Dalt Vila which is now a Unesco world heritage site; we ate the best meal at a restaurant called Sharmakanda in the north (the edamame hummus is incredible); we wandered around the small but well-curated contemporary art museum; we went go-karting; we went horse riding; we went to Wild Beets vegan cafe in Santa Gertrudis We did many things I’d never have considered doing when I lived here where everyone from babies to octogenarians dances under the stars to techno played by ageing German DJs This feels close to the first era of clubbing here in the 70s roofs were nonexistent and the spirit was free Joni Mitchell on Ibiza in 1971 Photograph: Karl FerrisAnd it sparked an idea for a novel – one that could hopefully do justice to the different aspects of life here I justified this in the name of “research” and actually did learn a lot that could be used in the book But I also saw problems I’d never noticed in my hedonistic youth Ibiza is multifaceted and has always attracted people wanting different kinds of escape Years before ravers discovered ecstasy and the eclectic unifying music played by DJ Alfredo at Amnesia in the late 80s artists and intellectuals such as Walter Benjamin flocked here to flee oppression Stars from the golden age of Hollywood such as Grace Kelly Liz Taylor and Laurence Olivier found it a safe haven Cormac McCarthy spent his hippy years on the island Joni Mitchell came and wrote some of her seminal Blue album while staying here and on the neighbouring island of Formentera Bob Marley danced the night away at the long-gone Glory’s nightclub after playing a famous concert here featured trips and local tips for your next break as well as the latest deals from Guardian Holidays which tilt the equilibrium like a gorilla on a seesaw the impact of holidaymakers was relatively positive but many do not: having people sleeping in the woods or in their cars before going to work at restaurants with three-figure minimum spends is not sustainable The Las Dalias night market Photograph: Gonzalo Azumendi/AlamyThe Ibiza seen from the yachts of Jeff Bezos and Leonardo DiCaprio is clearly a very different one from the Ibiza seen by a struggling family living out of a campervan in San Antonio thanks to them being accidentally imported with the fully grown olive trees ordered to decorate the gardens of villas and I am trying to support them any way I can Timeless and totally 21st centuryI realised I had an opportunity to include these issues in my book to draw attention to the wonder of this place while trying to convey its unique magic to those who roll their eyes at the very idea of Ibiza I knew I had an opportunity to highlight the need to be aware of the issues here how the places we visit don’t just change us So it becomes important to let beauty inspire us to tread gently think about the finite resources of small islands Ibiza is a sacred place of light and magic We who love it have a duty to help it stay that way The Life Impossible by Matt Haig is published by Canongate (£20). To support the Guardian and Observer go to guardianbookshop.com Ibiza officially wakes up from its winter slumber this weekend as Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza return with their iconic opening parties marking the true beginning of the 2025 season Ushuaïa Ibiza brings its signature open-air energy back to life with a stacked day-to-night lineup whose legendary live sets promise an emotional and unforgettable journey whose dreamy melodies have made him a global favorite Melodic techno staple Kevin de Vries and mystical Swiss DJ Deer Jade complete the lineup with deep With planes flying overhead and the sun dipping into the sea Ushuaïa once again becomes a place where music meets magic the party shifts across the road to Hï Ibiza recently crowned the world’s number one club Known for its immersive layout and cutting-edge production Hï hosts a multi-room experience featuring The Martinez Brothers in the Theatre alongside Joseph Capriati Each artist brings a unique take on house and techno creating a dynamic soundtrack for the night Amelie Lens and Anfisa Letyago take control with their hard-hitting techno sets Rising stars Hannah Laing and Ben Hemsley bring their own high-energy styles while La La adds depth with her versatile approach to dance music Melon Bomb and The Menendez Brothers with Dom Townsend will keep the Wild Corner moving into the early hours joined by DJ Mag Allstars and Cormac for a truly nonstop vibe unforgettable atmospheres and a crowd of global music lovers this weekend is set to launch another unforgettable Ibiza season offenders could also face being reported to their country’s embassy Tourists travelling to Ibiza could be hit with fines of up to £2,580 if they break recently introduced rules relating to consumption of alcohol in the popular San Antonio area Offenders could also face being reported to their country’s embassy Although these alcohol restrictions do not affect bars they do affect party boats within one nautical mile of San Antonio The rules were introduced to crack down on “anti-social behaviour” and “excessive tourism” in tourist hotspots The Balearic Islands Tourism Council press officer Luis Pomar said in 2020 when an initial round of restrictions were implemented that it was hoped the laws would not last forever but that it was necessary to “instil in people how to behave” these new rules will remain in place until 2027 Shortly after last May's announcement, Ibiza locals held a protest against overtourism amid increased tensions in Balearic and Canary Islands. SpainChevron IbizaChevron For chill Balearic vibes on a peaceful stretch of coastline—but close enough to the Ibiza-grade action that you don’t feel like you’re missing out Don’t rely on first impressions here: a blockish is the focal point of the hotel: all drinking and dining spaces look onto it This is where you’ll end up spending most of your time surrounded by young European families splashing about and beautiful bronzed couples on loungers with giant sun hats and colorful cocktails exerting themselves only long enough to motion for a top-up if you’re looking for a bit of buzz (it is Ibiza and Nikki Beach next door for more committed partying—none of which prevents you from pursuing a peaceful break Which is to say that this hotel is a little bit of everything; and in its case ME is one of three Ibiza properties run by Melia Hotels a chain with more than 350 hotels and resorts in 35 countries Melia Ibiza that opened in 2024 about an 8-minute drive south of ME simply outfitted option by Cala Pinet beach attracting both the fashionable set and young families to its boho-chic vibe and panoramic views of the ocean The 149 rooms range from entry-level cozy-sized rooms all the way up to suites with private pools We stayed in the Studio ME+ room with a terrace that had stunning views on both sides of the Mediterranean and the pool In addition to an open-plan bathroom with a freestanding bath by a window and a walk-in rain shower (toiletries are by C.O there was a large walk-in wardrobe area and a small dining section is minimalist (to let the sea views reign supreme) with bleached wood floors and crisp white linens I was nervous about party sounds drifting in to disturb the peace but was thrilled to note the room was soundproofed book the hotel’s Ultimate ME+ Suite with its own 24-hour dedicated ‘Aura Manager’ and an expansive terrace overlooking the bay is the standout meal here where options exist for everyone—from savory pastries to freshest of fruit and à la carte eggs and pancakes The free-flowing Cava is a much-loved perk here There are two on-site restaurants: Origens—where breakfast is served each morning—is good for Mediterranean cuisine relying on fresh seasonal ingredients; we enjoyed a delectable salmon tartar and white-fish ceviche with glasses of blush rosé Adults always have the option of heading to the kid-free rooftop for mojitos and tapas (and chill beats) with 360-degree views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Santa Eulalia Bay If you prefer to stay super local, you can always enjoy the slip of beach just beyond the pool (take a dive off the jetty) or follow a snaking path around the perimeter of the hotel to reach the sheltered Cala Martina beach with a couple of cute restaurants, a surfing school, and calm shallow waters. There’s also a Nikki Beach club right next door if the itch to party should strike–but the need to stay close enough to your bed is even greater. Staff are helpful and friendly, milling about and ready to top up your rosé or refresh your towels—while also staying fairly discreet. The concierge was particularly helpful, managing our preferences for activities on-site (yoga, massages, etc.) but also offering recommendations for excursions elsewhere on the island. Special mention must also be made of the valets who oversee a steady coming and going of taxis for guests—always with a smile. While the hotel doesn’t brand itself as a wellness resort, there is a Thai-style spa with treatment rooms and a smaller pool that’s dotted with Balinese beds. My massage therapist was excellent but the room itself could’ve used an update. In addition to a fully equipped gym, the hotel runs daily classes that include aerial yoga and water sports. Book early as these fill up fast. There is wheelchair-accessible parking and stair-free access to the main building. Rooms and bathrooms (with walk-in showers) have been designed with wide corridors and doors for wheelchair access. Guests with mobility issues may inquire about adaptable leisure equipment. One thing to note is that, on our visit, there was some seaweed on the beach—but that didn’t stop us from getting in (the water was deliciously warm and calm). Plus, the further out you swim, the less it will bother you. All listings featured on Condé Nast Traveler are independently selected by our editors.
