ABOUT IBIZA

Ibiza is an island located in the Mediterranean Sea, only 80 km from the Iberian Peninsula, and it has an extension of 572 km2. Its airport is only 10 km away from the capital city, Ibiza.

The island is one of the most visited places in Spain and its weather is one of the reasons: the average temperature is 17ºC and the rain only appears 25 days per year!It is significant that having a population of 141.000 inhabitants, over 4 million of visitors are welcomed each year.

But its attractiveness relies not only on its good weather, but also on itseclectic atmosphere. And that is why Ibiza has been considered as a global reference of luxury, nightlife and breath-taking beaches. But, at the same time, and due to its heterogeneity, it is also remarkable the peculiar hippie touch that imbue its culture, the relaxed plans that you could also find in the island and the immense monuments and countryside that will make people of all walks of life at home.

In this regard, the capital city is characterised by a stunning contrast between the old town and the cosmopolitan and lively atmosphere, which defines the essence of Ibiza.

Moreover, there is nothing more delightful than staring at the striking views from every single beach, cove, cliff and natural Park, especially in the afternoon, when the amazing sunsets take place.Additionally, there is also a plan for those who prefer to sunbathe while diving among the transparent blue waters.

Going into the most historic and cultural side of the island, the “Dalt Vila walls”stand out in the old town, as they are considered UNESCO World Heritage. It is pleasant to go for a stroll while shopping in the “MercatVell”, visiting the Cathedral and the City Hall or having a coffee in one of the trendy cafes and restaurants. In addition, during the Summer there are several shows where a typical dance is performed, the “ball pagès".

Moreover, it is recommended to visit some of the adorable, small and white villages in the island, located in a privileged natural environment, that conform the perfect scenario in order to taste the traditional gastronomy.

In relation to the best period of the year to visit the island, it will depend on the purpose of your trip. So, on the one hand, if you want to enjoy your stay in a peaceful environment, probably, Spring, Winter and Autumn will be your seasons. On the other hand, if you want to explore your adventure at the boiling point, Summer gives you all kind of plans, as Ibiza is a destination irremissibly connected to this season of the year.

In a nutshell, do not let anybody tell you about it and feel Ibiza under your skin!

Most of the recommended beaches for families are located in the East side of the island whereas in the North they are predominantly steep.

Some of these beaches are considered the best of Ibiza. For example, it is necessary to remark the beach “SesSalines”, located in a privileged environment: its Natural Park, as well as “CalaBassa” with its spectacular blue water.

GASTRONOMY IN IBIZA

After a tired day of doing tourism, sunbathing or sailing, there is nothing more grateful in our holidays than having a good meal. From sea to countryside, we can find a huge variety of dishes that could be part of the perfect menu for having dinner with your family or friends while enjoying the peaceful views from your rented villa.

And to this respect, the Mediterranean diet is a global reference because of how healthy it is, its variety and the use of fresh and natural ingredients. In this way, the gastronomy of Ibiza is full of dishes combining the two principal products that the natural environment offers: meat and fish.

However, Ibiza has much more than expected: it is necessary to taste delicious pastries, different sauces made from local herbs and to drink the best and exclusive wines as well as a peculiar kind of coffee.

All of these delicious combinations will be perfect for creating the ideal menu for having the complete meal in a homely environment. And this could be possible because it is so easy to hire some of the best chefs in Spain that will prepare your perfect meal, taking into consideration your preferences, kinds of food, children’s tastes and what is more important, your comfort and pleasure in your private villa.

This option will let you taste the typical dishes done by the most experts in cooking with the unique preoccupation of spending as much time as possible with your partner, children and friends, while enjoying your private pool in your rented villa.

In this sense, what about starting with some typical “broken eggs” with potatoes from the island and “sobrasada”? It consists on some fried potatoes mixed with some eggs and all covered with sobrasada, a cured selection of pork meat that gives to the dish an irresistible touch.

Additionally, if you go to Ibiza you could not miss the chance to taste its local seafood. In particular, the red prawns. They are served “from net to plate” and cooked in different ways. If your taste is exotic, a good carpaccio (a thinly sliced raw prawn with vinaigrette) is the best option. Otherwise, the simplicity of some boiled prawns will reveal all its natural delicacy.

For main course, a “paella” is always a good option, you will love it from the first bite and it can be made with meat, seafood or a combination of both. Children will love it too! Moreover, if you are a fish-lover, a “bullit de peix” could also be an option. It is a key dish in Ibiza’s gastronomy and it consists on a combination of fish, potatoes and a typical garlic sauce.

All the meal must be accompanied by the exclusive and ecological wine “Can Rich”, as well as some typical herbs liquors.

And putting the icing on the cake, some typical pastries will finish our meal. In this regard, the “flaó”, a cheese cake with local eggs and mint or some “orelletes”, fried dough made with flour, lemon and aniseed, will be a good choice to finish your degustation menu.

SHOPPING IN IBIZA

If you like shopping, definitively Ibiza is your place: it has forged an own style and its markets sell all kind of clothes, some of them made in Ibiza and others carefully selected from all over the world.

In the 60s emerged the “ad-lib” fashion, thanks to the hippie influence. The typical dresses from Ibiza are made with cool fabric like chiffon or linen in white tones and they are as practical in summer season as stylish. The most iconic brand of this style is without any doubts, Charo Ruiz, with a boutique in Santa Eulalia.

You can find these typical styles in one of the many markets in the island. For instance, in the seaport area in Ibiza there are lots of shops and boutiques only and exclusively dedicated to sell these products.

However, street markets are more typical in order to buy whatever you could expect. In this sense, you can shop different and original souvenirs with that hippie touch characteristic of the island.

These street markets could be found in every single town in the island, so you can enjoy a shopping day while listening to street concerts, typical dances or simply having a good time with your family or friends.

However it is important to know the exact days these markets are open, because it depends on the town and season.

One of the most fundamental markets is “Las Dalias”, open every Saturday, and it has become an important attraction in Ibiza for sightseeing. It still conserves the hippie essence in every single corner, so it could be fun to leave your rented private villa in Ibiza and meet this happy hippie atmosphere! Over there you can find different kinds of products such as clothes, jewellery, musical instruments, books, antiques…
