Weekend breaks in Ibiza: fall in love with the White Isle

Why should I go to Ibiza for the weekend?

Ibiza is a surprisingly varied island, with different things to see and do depending on where you go. While the White Isle is best-known for its nightlife, it also has gorgeous nature, stunning beaches, historic sites, world-class restaurants, and so much more. Your weekend break in Ibiza may start in Ibiza Town, exploring the narrow cobbled streets of the Dalt Vila, or historic centre, or climbing to the top of the castle. Alternatively, you could head for Punta Arabí and Las Dalias, where the decades-old hippie markets will give you a glimpse of Ibiza's long-running alternative scene. Of course, there are also beautiful beaches to explore in Ibiza. Playa d'en Bossa is the island's longest beach, known for its clubs and nightlife. Cala Comte and Cala Saladeta are quieter, giving you the chance to swim, sunbathe, and enjoy spectacular sunsets.

Where should I stay for a weekend in Ibiza?

Different areas of Ibiza have very different vibes, so do your research before you look for holiday lettings in Ibiza. Ibiza Town, the island's capital, has a great mixture of charming historic architecture, vibrant nightlife and superb shopping. It will give you a taste of a city break during your weekend retreat in Ibiza. However, if you just want some of the island's world-famous clubbing, the place to go is Playa d'en Bossa. This stylish resort is well-known for its beach clubs and nightlife, and is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to socialise and have fun. You may not realise it, but you can also have a totally chilled out, relaxed Ibiza weekend getaway. If that's what you're looking for, choose Santa Eulalia. This quiet town, located on the east coast of the island, is far from the main party areas and has beautiful beaches. Peaceful and laid-back, it gives you a totally different taste of the White Isle.
