Ibiza is my favorite island in the Baleares because it’s got everything: glorious beaches, fabulous nightlife, great food and a cosmopolitan atmosphere. The island attracts a truly international and sophisticated crowd. The only touristy place to avoid is Sant Antoni, which is a tiny corner of the island. You can drive through Ibiza on a warm summer day and encounter few cars or people. The other unique feature of Ibiza is that there has been an alternative, hippie community living on the island for many years. As a result, the vegetarian food is very delicious and better than you’d find in large cities elsewhere. There are numerous farmers markets, small stores selling organic products and a vibrant, eco-conscious community to support it all.
But before you can enjoy Ibiza, you’ve got to make reservations. It’s busy in the summer. Here are my favorite hotels and B&Bs. I’ve stayed in Can Marti, an agriturismo that is ecologically self-supporting: they generate electricty via solar power, collect and purify rain water and run their farm in a sustainable manner. It is also located in the northeast part of the island, which is quiet and beautiful.
