Most private arrivals head for a villa rather than a hotel, and the island sorts itself by coast: the north around Sant Joan and Portinatx for quiet, the east around Santa Eul\u00e0ria and Es Canar for families, the south-west from Cala Jondal to Cala Conta for the beach clubs and the sunsets. In town, Ibiza Gran Hotel and the restored houses of Dalt Vila put you beside the marina and the Formentera boats; Six Senses on the northern tip and Nobu on Talamanca are the resort alternatives. Everything is within forty minutes of the airport.<\/p>\n
The season sets the agenda. From late May to early October the clubs, the beach restaurants and the boats run every day; the rest of the year the island belongs to walkers, cyclists and the markets at Sant Joan and Las Dalias. A day on the water is the essential: a boat to Formentera’s Ses Illetes, lunch at Es Torrent or Es Xarcu, and back by sunset at Cala Comte. Dalt Vila, the walled old town, is a World Heritage site and worth an evening before dinner at the marina.<\/p>\n
A car meets the aircraft at the general aviation terminal, and the island is small: fifteen minutes to town, thirty-five to the north coast. In July and August the roads around Sant Antoni and the south-west beaches slow to a crawl in the evening, which is when a boat from the marina beats a car. Helicopter transfers to Formentera and to villas with a landing area take ten minutes and are arranged with the flight.<\/p>\n
Ibiza is on central European time, with no jet lag from Germany, Switzerland or France and one hour from London. The airport is the only one on the island, so a slot and a parking position are reserved when the flight is confirmed, and in August we say so in the quote. Formentera has no jet airport: it is a boat or a helicopter from Ibiza. Cards work everywhere, dinner starts late, and the clubs later still.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Ibiza hat eine Piste und eine kurze Saison, und genau darin liegt die Kunst, privat hinzufliegen: Slot und Parkposition werden mit dem Flug gesichert, vom Flugzeug zur Villa sind es f\u00fcnfzehn Minuten, und das Boot nach Formentera legt im Hafen unterhalb der Altstadt ab. Ab D\u00fcsseldorf, Frankfurt oder London sind es zweieinhalb Flugstunden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":58025,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-57997","destination","type-destination","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
