My Partner and I arrived mid October half expecting to find a hotel with staff weary after a busy year. Not a bit of it, all the staff were very efficient. courteous, polite and helpful to the nth degree, greeting all guests with the cool champagne and taking care of our baggage while we checked in and were given full description of facilities.
After going to the room and having a look at the sea view then decanting our clothing etc we went down for lunch, a most pleasant display of a vast array of food stuff to satisfy all palates, we were ushered to a pleasant seat overlooking the bay and relaxed into the calming view of the sea and beach laid out before us.
after lunch we explored the hotel and facilities, the gym on the second floor was well equipped with cross trainers, weights, cycling machines, treadmill and ventilated, there was no rowing machine, I like the rowing machine, we then had a look around the terraces, which are covered in astro turff, great idea, there are many sunbeds and chairs on each level down to the sea as well as about 12 Bali type beds with frames to take lace canopies in high summer that are lovely to laze upon. there is a pool, Jacuzzi, tennis courts, boules as well as all the usual pool tables and table tennis.
the food and entertainment were excellent, food vast variety, entertainment was kept at full flow all day and evening by a team of people that were just amazing, never once was anyone harassed to participate, polite banter and fun were their remit and the energy of all the team members was top notch.
I am a fish lover and every evening their were at least three fish dishes to choose from and the other meals had a fish selection as well, all tastes and desires were catered for and there were two other restaurants with speciality foods available.
The drinks available were international selections and not just local selections.
The town and shop are a pleasant shaded walk down on the pavement or across the beach to the well stocked and airy shops, the centre of the bay is cordoned off for swimmers only so great for a relaxing swim, just around on the other side of the bay is the boat pickup jetty, where you an get the boat right into the middle of old town Ibiza, or to the other large town on that side called, Santa Eularia and on to the hippy market at Es Canar, or catch the bus to the various towns on Ibiza.
Overall a very pleasant relaxing holiday.
Would we go back? In a heartbeat!
