Best Hotels in Ibiza

Pure House Ibiza

Pure House Ibiza

Pure House, located off-grid in the campo yet only a short drive from Ibiza town, provides both leisure and accessibility to action—the best of both Balearic worlds. Spend days relaxing by the pool, then venture out to Ibiza town's bustling restaurants and bars after nightfall falls and the proclivity for Ibiza-based mischief emerges.

The airport is about a 10-minute drive away, while the beaches of Las Salinas, Talamanca, and Playa d'en Bossa, all of which are popular party spots, are another five minutes away.

Pure House Ibiza

This stunning 19th-century finca is set on a 30-acre estate with orange, mango, apricot, and fig trees, surrounded by a vibrant green pine forest. It teems with life, with enormous, billowing palms and bright, exotic flora that sometimes resembles a jungle.

The intimate and carefully maintained rooms transport you to mellow countries, reflecting the essence of white isle bohemia with delicate ethnic elements, woven lampshades, and plenty of bamboo thatching. It couldn't be simpler to sit back, soak it all in, and do very little else. No wonder children are not permitted.

Pure House seems like a home away from home, thanks to personalised care and a crew that is constantly reachable via WhatsApp. Owner Caroline is the ultimate host, appearing just when you need her.

Pure House Ibiza

The large, rectangular pool is lined with comfortable loungers and covered cabanas where visitors may steal away for a nap, and there is a private pavilion in the garden for massages and cosmetic treatments. Yoga, Pilates, and exercise classes can be scheduled upon request. The delightfully chilled café serves snacks and cuisine all day. Caroline handpicks the products and jewellery for the on-site boutique, many of which are highly desirable.

There are four finca suites and one freestanding suite, all with a private entrance and terrace. Each space has an own personality, yet they are all supported by luxury, organic textiles, dark wood, white walls, and striking wall hangings. The beds and pillows are huge and deliciously plush, and the bathrooms have walk-in showers.

Pure House Ibiza

Breakfast is offered between 9 a.m. and 11.30 a.m., with selections such as the English (two eggs, crispy bacon, fresh tomato), Healthy (homemade yoghurt and fresh fruit), and Ibiza (jamon serrano, manchego cheese, tomato). Coffee and fresh juice are also available. Lunch is offered between 1pm and 4pm and includes robust salads and various burgers (starting at €24/£21), while tapas meals are provided between 1pm and 9pm, making them ideal for an early light dinner.

Seven Pines Resort Ibiza

Seven Pines Resort Ibiza

Seven Pines, nestled between pine forest on one side and the Mediterranean on the other, is ideal for taking in views of the rocky island of Es Vedrà and, of course, the famous Ibiza sunset.

The picturesque little bay of Cala Codolar is about 200 metres away, while Cala Comte, undoubtedly one of Ibiza's best, is a 15-minute walk away.

Seven Pines, which resembles a little Ibicenco town rather than a hotel, is a collection of individual suites scattered across a huge clifftop and surrounded by residential homes. Because of the scale of the facility, staff personnel circulate on bikes and golf buggies, nodding, waving, or smiling as they pass.

Seven Pines Resort Ibiza

There are numerous communal areas to hang out in, whether by the pool, bar, restaurant or spa - enough to ensure that you never have to leave the resort, which is ideal if your goal is to lapse into a state of complete relaxation. The decor is discreetly opulent, with a concentration on natural materials and a neutral palette accented by the occasional piece of standout furniture or wall hanging.

Service is excellent; staff members smile at every request and anticipate every requirement, making an extra effort if you're dining alone, for example, or offering you a fresh sarong before you've gotten wet. Speaking of which, there's a gorgeous infinity pool with its own chiringuito, a tiny bar that serves beverages and nibbles. It's lined with sleek grey parasols and loungers, some of which provide a direct view of Es Vedrà in the distance. There's a second pool with a more family-friendly ambiance that's perfect for kids, and a food truck outside provides Mexican munchies.

Pure Seven Spa is a magnificent, light-filled space that offers a variety of first-rate treatments and programmes, such as massages, facials, full-moon yoga classes, and weight-loss retreats. The entire spa strives to be totally sustainable, thus essential oils are acquired locally and no plastic is allowed on the premises. Three Pershing yachts are available for lease.

Seven Pines Resort Ibiza

There are 186 suites in total, with approximately eight different classifications. Some offer private pools, while others feature sea views and two bedrooms. The most expensive are situated on a secluded portion of sea-facing clifftop. They all feel like private, serviced apartments.

Each is arranged in a modern manner with wooden floors, neutral walls, and patterned pillows and curtains in colours of cerulean blue and green, as well as terraces or balconies, large living areas, and kitchenettes. Showers offer three settings - standard, rain head, and spa - and include Molton Brown products.

Seven Pines Resort Ibiza

The View Restaurant serves sophisticated Asian food. It's not cheap (mains start at €29/£26), but for a one-time treat, it's well worth it. Start with the charred Galician octopus (the Korean chilli paste adds a nice kick), and if you like meat, the Kagoshima beef (€92/£82) is a must-have.

Breakfast is offered at The View between 8 a.m. and lunchtime, with a large buffet and à la carte alternatives. Start with freshly baked pastries and bread served with custom-made spreads and jams, organic muesli, fresh fruit and sausages and bacon from the grill, then choose from dishes such as pancakes, French toast, eggs Benedict and shakshouka, all of which are fantastic.

Six Senses Ibiza

Six Senses Ibiza

Perched like a watchkeeper over the gorgeous Xarraca Bay, you truly feel like you're on top of the island. Cala Xuclar, with its outstanding tiny chiringuito, is a five-minute drive away, while Ibiza airport is 35 minutes away and Ibiza town is 25 minutes away; the hotel offers immediate sea access.

This is a vast resort, yet it has been carefully designed to complement its surroundings. The lights are dimmed at night, and one of the restaurants is built into the rock. The overall architecture is incredibly open and airy, with remnants of the land's history maintained undisturbed. Materials are both local and locally inspired, with thatched details and sumptuous furnishings lending an air of haute bohemia. Nature, however, is the actual star here, with 360-degree sunsets and the sound of lapping waves.

The crew are dressed in neutrals, with some wearing attractive panama hats. The service is quite friendly, if not entirely slick.

Six Senses Ibiza

The spa facilities here are world-class. Even the most common treatments are infused with science and/or spiritual fairy dust, as well as personalisation. Highlights include the age-defying RoseBar, biohacking treatments, and breathing exercises. There is also an infrared sauna, a boxing ring, daily exercise and wellbeing workshops, and other retreats are offered throughout the year.

Six Senses Ibiza

Standard rooms are relaxing, with neutral colours, USB plugs, silky soft beds, and views of the sea or the trees, as well as Marshall speakers and coffee/tea amenities. The bathrooms have walk-in showers, the supplies are refillable, and the robes are organic cotton from the Italian firm La DoubleJ. The minibar is filled with healthy, independent, and local items including mushroom supplements and CBD-infused sparkling drinks. The Cave Royale room features a grand piano, a bar and a door that leads to a recording studio.

Six Senses Ibiza

Breakfast at The Farmers' Market is not a buffet, which is a stylish beginning. Instead, choose from a Middle Eastern-inspired cuisine, with many items sourced from the hotel's farm.

Six Senses Ibiza

Begin dinner with a drink at the Pharmacy Bar, then choose between The Orchard for open-fire, open-air dining; HaSalon by celebrated Israeli chef Eyal Shani for Mediterranean-inspired largely vegetable dishes under the festoon-lit olive trees; or Live Cave, which serves both BONDST (NY) sushi and a tapas menu from Wednesday to Sunday, with some of the best sunset views on the island.

Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay

Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay

Surprisingly, beachfront hotels in Ibiza are uncommon, making Nobu's location on the waters of Talamanca more desirable. The beach itself is a long stretch of sand backed by a plethora of laid-back restaurants popular with locals, and while it's not the greatest on the island, it does provide spectacular views of the Mediterranean and the adjacent island of Formentera in the distance.

The hotel first opened in 2017, and since then it has truly grown into its skin, integrating flawlessly with the salt-licked terrain and effortlessly reaching the oft-cited but difficult-to-achieve sweet spot of relaxed luxury. It's now the type of hotel that knows what it does well and focuses on excelling at it, which for guests means sublime calm combined with occasional extravagance.

Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay

The structure itself is a four-story complex divided from the sand by two swimming pools and sunbeds, with interiors that alternate between fawn and ivory, gold and topaz — all very Mediterranean. The entryway is a showpiece: a light-filled area surrounded with enormous soft sofas and rattan swinging seats, it draws the eye out to the pool and dazzling sea beyond, making it feel like the vacation begins the moment you step foot in the door.

The staff is courteous and attentive, and nothing is too much bother – if they move your umbrella to shade you from the sun once, they will return hourly to repeat the procedure indefinitely. Unsurprisingly, the concierge crew is extremely helpful and may be called for anything from restaurant reservations to larger demands such as yacht moorings.

There are two elegant stone swimming pools, one of which is designated for families. Both look out over the Mediterranean and are flanked with cabanas and sunbeds, the best of which need a minimum spend of €150 (£126) — these should be reserved in advance, although there are plenty of beds to satisfy demand.

The main draw here is the proximity to the sea, and all 152 rooms and suites are built to complement it. Needless to say, floor-to-ceiling windows and vast, expansive patios are common, and the colour scheme is as relaxing as the sound of waves breaking nearby.

Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay

Cream walls and flooring are accentuated with soft furnishings in turquoise and azure, as well as exquisite handblown glass pendant lamps hanging beside the bed. White marble bathrooms have big walk-in showers (tubs in superior categories) and are outfitted with Natura Bissé items and professional-grade hairdryers.

Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay

Breakfast is served at sand-in-the-toes Chambao and includes a buffet selection of fruit, juice, pastries, cereal, and other items, as well as an à la carte menu of eggs in a variety of delightful forms.

At midday, the menu changes to fresh coastal classics like gazpacho, octopus, and burrata salad, as well as a variety of tapas meals and, of course, chiringuito-style paella. There is also a separate children's menu.

Legado Ibiza Finca Hotel

Legado Ibiza Finca Hotel

Legado Ibiza is located just off the main road leading north to Santa Eularia, right before the section where traffic is always backed up. Cala Llonga is a 10-minute drive away, while Ibiza Town and the airport take about 15 minutes.

If there was ever a hotel that felt like the ideal place for folks who enjoy touring the island and going out to dinner as much as they relish spending time doing nothing, this is it. The proprietors, both named Andreas, have always wanted to own a hotel, and Legado Ibiza feels like their second home - because it is.

After purchasing the hotel and relocating to Ibiza from Vienna (though they both continue to travel to Austria for work), they set out to restore the finca's individuality and spark. The pool is surrounded by woven Moroccan baskets on cast iron shelves and enormous sunbeds with pink marble-print covers, as well as plants.

Legado Ibiza Finca Hotel

The grounds are also worth visiting, with nooks and crannies strewn throughout, including a small, Japanese-inspired pond and garden. Aside from the gorgeous rooms and delicious breakfast, the two Andreases are the standouts here. They're both terrific hosts, easygoing and eager to serve, and can read their guests, whipping up drinks if they feel a need or, equally, leaving you alone to read your magazine by the pool.

Legado Ibiza has 11 rooms and one suite, all of which have been beautifully updated to a high degree. This is not surprising given that one of the owners is a well-known art director and creative consultant for fashion and lifestyle brands. Artichoke-print wallpaper and unusual décor - think design-y plates with faces on the wall, vintage Bambi prints and 1950s paperbacks - added a lot of flair to my double room, which also included a distinctive, custom-made iron bed frame and an extremely comfy mattress.

Legado Ibiza Finca Hotel

There was also a living room with a bar cart (filtered water is served in glass, not plastic, bottles), a spotless bathroom with modern faucets and a rainfall shower, and a covered, partially shared outside patio.

Breakfast is a social event at Legado, and while it is served at tables near to the pool, the transition from dining chair to sunlounger is quite fluid and seamless. Continental breakfast is gratis and includes bread (ask for the thinly sliced, thickly seeded German version, which is fantastic), yoghurt with handmade muesli and fresh fruit, and a soft cooked egg. You can also get the 'Vienna' variety, which includes dulce de leche, or the 'Finca', which has tomato, avocado, and jamon.

Legado Ibiza Finca Hotel

Breakfast is the only meal served everyday, but the proprietors are fantastic hosts and plan dinner parties and activities at the finca, such as Dinner4Friends, a supper club that runs on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays throughout the summer.

Ca Na Xica

Ca Na Xica

The hotel is located in the northern part of the island, just a five-minute drive from Benirràs, which features a sandy beach and Sunday night bongo drummers.

All cares appear to vanish at remote Ca Na Xica, a refuge where pure white walls stand out against the terracotta-clay surroundings, which include unique tall grasses, cacti, olive and almond trees, and a lemon and orange orchard. The T-shaped seawater pool is the focal point of the hotel, which began with just six rooms in the main house, designed in the style of a Spanish finca.

Ca Na Xica

The partially open-air, glass-walled restaurant is also notable, in a clever touch, the toilets are marked 'blah' and 'blahblahblah' (we will let you figure out which ones is for male and which one is for female guests). There is enough of space around the pool and spa to lounge, and the views - and birdsong - will make you want to do very little throughout your visit.

Ibiza, where pristine beaches, exciting nightlife, and a rich cultural legacy combine to provide a memorable Mediterranean experience. With its azure waters and magnificent surroundings, the island offers a plethora of exquisite hotels that exemplify indulgence and leisure.

From boutique hideaways in historic towns to luxurious beachside complexes, Ibiza's greatest hotels provide unrivalled service and sophistication.
