Our approach

The service of a five-star hotel, in the privacy of your own house

You speak to one person from the first message to the last day. The same people who plan your stay are the ones who serve it.

Services

Five services, one team

Book one on its own or combine them for the whole stay.

Where we work

Private villa service across Ibiza

We cover the whole island, and Formentera on request. Each area asks for something different.

South coast

Sant Josep · Es Cubells · Cala Jondal · Ses Salines (Las Salinas)

Sea-view villas close to the southern beaches. A natural fit for a full-stay butler and beach-day planning.

West and sunset coast

Cala Comte (Cala Conta) · Cala Bassa · Cala Tarida · Cala Vadella · Cala d'Hort · Sant Antoni (San Antonio)

The side of the island that faces the sunset and Es Vedrà. The classic setting for a sunset bar.

Ibiza Town

Eivissa · Dalt Vila · Marina Botafoc · Talamanca · Jesús

Close to the old town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and to the port. Drivers and reservations matter most here.

East coast

Santa Eulària (Santa Eulalia) · Cala Llonga · Roca Llisa · Sant Carles (San Carlos)

Calmer and family-friendly. Private chef and waiters for long lunches and dinners at home.

The north

Sant Joan · Sant Miquel · Portinatx · Benirràs · Na Xamena · Santa Agnès

Quiet, rural and further from the shops. We stock the house before you arrive so nothing runs short.

Inland

Santa Gertrudis · Sant Rafel · Sant Mateu

Country fincas among fields and villages. Space for celebrations, with bar and service teams on site.

May, June, September, OctoberThe calm months. Our favourite time for celebrations in a villa.
July and AugustPeak season. Dates fill early, so enquire as soon as your villa is booked.
November to AprilOn request, for winter stays and private events.
Ibiza guide

Know the island before you land

A short guide from people who work here every season. Anything on this page, we can arrange for you.

Beaches

Beaches and coves

The west has the sunset coves: Cala Comte, Cala Bassa, Cala Tarida and Cala Vadella. The south has the long sands of Ses Salines and Es Cavallet, inside a natural park. The north keeps the quiet ones: Benirràs, Cala Xarraca, Aigües Blanques.

In July and August, go early or late: the small coves fill by midday.

Culture

Dalt Vila and old Ibiza

Dalt Vila, the walled old town of Eivissa, has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1999, together with the Phoenician settlement of Sa Caleta, the Puig des Molins necropolis and the posidonia seagrass meadows.

Walk up to the cathedral at dusk, when the heat drops and the port lights come on.

Sunsets

Where to watch the sun go down

The sunset belongs to the west coast: the bay of Sant Antoni, Cala Comte and the viewpoints facing the rock of Es Vedrà near Cala d'Hort. In the north, Benirràs is known for its Sunday drums.

Or stay home: we set the bar at your villa for golden hour.

Markets and villages

Hippy markets and white villages

The hippy markets of Es Canar and Las Dalias, near Sant Carles, run through the season. Inland, Santa Gertrudis, Sant Joan and Santa Agnès keep their whitewashed churches and village squares.

Market days change between seasons. Ask us and we check before you go.

Food and drink

What Ibiza tastes like

Bullit de peix and sofrit pagès are the island's classic dishes; flaó is its mint and cheese tart. Look for local wine, olive oil and honey, Ibiza sea salt, and hierbas ibicencas, the aniseed herb liqueur served after a meal.

Our cocktail menus use many of these ingredients.

Formentera

The island next door

Formentera has no airport: you cross by boat from the port of Ibiza to La Savina. Ses Illetes and Migjorn are its best-known beaches; the lighthouse of La Mola and Cap de Barbaria are the long views.

It deserves a full day. We arrange the driver, the boat and the table.

Nightlife

Every party on the island, in one calendar

The club season runs roughly from late April to October, with opening and closing parties at each end. Ibiza Spotlight keeps the full party calendar, updated daily with dates, line-ups and tickets.

Open the party calendar External site: ibiza-spotlight.com. Tell us where you are going and we arrange the driver.
