Ibiza for couples recommendations please

[Ibizaonmymind]

Hi, I am looking for an Ibiza holiday for a couple in our 40s. We have some options shortlisted but haven’t really been able to get any personal recommendations. My friend thinks I’m super fussy but I don’t agree. 😄

Our criteria:

Lively place but not the party Ibiza and definitely not looking for super clubs and fancy beach clubs.

All Inclusive with good quality food and drinks offers. Varied food and cocktails essential. We don’t want nuggets and pizza.

Package holiday.

Adult only or a resort with an adult only area.

We like late nights and to have some fun but not looking for super cheesy stuff.

Some activities-yoga etc would be nice.

Spa facilities would be good but not essential.

Beach front would be amazing but actually I don’t mind sunbathing and pool swimming.

Fairly chilled holiday with a couple of days of sight seeing and shopping but mainly happy to relax. So it would be nice to wander into a nice town for lunch or drinks.

Travel from any London or possibly south east airport.

I’ve used TUI previously and like them but also looked at Club Med. Any other suggestions?

You need TRS Ibiza hotel. It’s epic.

Es Cana 🏖️

my first thought was Pikes. Only ever been at Halloween where they do an all inclusive package.

This looks amazing, thank you!

Gorgeous area. Do you have any hotel recommendations?

I don’t think Pikes is our thing but will research. It looks a bit too clubby for me.

We stayed in Amare, it’s beautiful.

AluaSol Es Cana. I haven’t stayed there as have the kids with us but I have been in for a drink visiting a friend who was there at there at the same time as us and they really enjoyed. Also Bless hotel, it is stunning, short walk two minutes) to the beach.

We love Es Cana. Santa Elulia would work too, I don’t know any hotels though.

If you're going in the summer, I'd also look at booking separately as well as a package holiday as it could be cheaper, more flexible flights/dates and you'll just be able to get a bus from the airport to the resort rather than coach transfers that can take an age.

Santa Eularia is nice and good for eating out as there's plenty of bars and restaurants including at the marina, I don't know if there's any dancing/live music/clubs. Our favourite place was a tapas restaurant in a back street that had a lovely shaded internal courtyard. There's a bus every 20 minutes to Ibiza town and Es Cana and also a regular bus to and from the airport in the summer at least.

Es Cana. The ferries take you all over the island from there too. The ferry to Ibiza town is fun (if you don't get seasick) haha.

Ea Cana is great and The Bless would fit your brief, though it’s £££
Personally I think Es Cana is quite a family orientated resort (though maybe not in term time) Santa Eulalia is more upmarket and sophisticated so you may prefer it (though I prefer Es Cana!)

Fun fact. The video for Club Tropicana by Wham was filmed there.
