Curator’s statement
Ibiza is a place that invites you to slow down and savor—where golden hour stretches long, the sea sparkles with a kind of magic, and every corner feels like a secret waiting to be discovered. For me, it’s less about the parties and more about the poetry: sunset cocktails at Petunia with Es Vedrà in view, long dinners by the water at Los Enamorados, and lazy mornings wandering quiet coves. It’s where I go to reconnect—with nature, with creativity, and with myself. This guide is a love letter to the softer, dreamier side of the island.

Need to know
Ibiza is full of surprises—and it's so much more than just nightlife. Rent a car or scooter to explore the island's quieter corners, hidden coves, and countryside gems (some of the best spots are totally off the beaten path). Reservations are essential in high season, especially for sunset dinners and beach clubs—book early to avoid missing out. Bring layers, as evenings can get breezy even in summer. And if you can, try to catch a Sunday sunset at Cala Benirràs—complete with live drumming and a golden glow that feels like pure magic. Lastly, embrace the island pace: slow mornings, long lunches, and late-night stargazing are all part of the Ibiza rhythm.
