The very name “Ibiza” conjures images of a hedonist’s paradise – the ultimate party island. While this is certainly still true, holidays in Ibiza are also a great chance to relax and unwind a little. In fact, the White Isle is a great holiday destination for families and young people.

Ibiza is one of Spain’s Balearic Islands, located in the Mediterranean Sea, affording it a beautifully warm climate from April until October each year. To celebrate this, one of the island’s main nightclubs, Space, holds its opening party at the begninning of June each year. If you visit Ibiza outside of these times and you will find that the weather is a little more unpredictable. It is for this reason many of the bars, hotels and nightclubs are shut outside of these months, although there are still that remain open.

Explore the quaint old streets of the island’s capital, Ibiza Town, during the day, stopping every now and then for a glass of sangria in one of the fantastic bars. The sandy shores and clear, blue waters of Es Cana are a beach lover’s Mecca and the perfect spot to unwind. When night falls, there’s only really one thing to do on an Ibiza holiday, and that’s partying hard at one of the legendary nightclubs – most of which stay open until 6am.at the earliest. Sunrise on the beach also creates a real buzz each morning.

In order to attract more diverse groups of people to an Ibiza holiday there are more and more 5 star hotels being opened on the island. This is to raise the expectations of strangers to Ibiza, as many believe the island’s only accommodation to come in the form of cheap hotels or apartments. So if it’s a little luxury you’re looking for, you’ll certainly find it in one of the newer Ibiza hotels.

It’s the non stop partying, laughter, excitement and fun that keeps fans of Ibiza holidays coming back year after year. Over the course of the past 30 years, the island of Ibiza in the Mediterranean Sea has become the undisputed party capital of the world. Millions of hedonists flock there every year to spend their days in the sun and their nights partying in some of the most amazing clubs in the world.

There are so many clubs to enjoy during a holiday in Ibiza, you might actually struggle to get around them all. Some of the most celebrated are Privilege (which is the world’s largest nightclub), Space (specifically for after parties), Pacha (a trendy franchise club with a worldwide brand of its own), and Es Paradis (famous for its water parties). Add to this a multitude of smaller clubs, bars and nightspots, and it’s clear that Ibiza’s reputation as the party capital of the world is deserved.

On an Ibiza holiday, you need to be prepared for a much faster pace of life at night. Daytime on the White Isle is a little more laid back. The preferred activities are sunbathing on the beach or strolling around beautiful Ibiza Town. As you might expect, the island really comes alive once the sun has set, and with this in mind, it might not be the wisest destination choice if you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing holiday.

Accommodation in Ibiza ranges from quite low-cost self catering apartments all the way up to 5 star hotels. However, the majority of young holidaymakers tend to go for cheap apartments in Ibiza, as most of their time is spent out on the town and in Ibiza’s many clubs. Couples can find some beautiful hotels a little out of the main town, which is ideal if you are looking for somewhere to stay closer to the action but yet you can retreat to should you want to.

If you’re heading to Ibiza for the massive party scene, you need to be aware that every club closes after September, with the exception of Pacha. When the party season restarts in June, so the clubs reopen their doors. So if you have booked yourselves on to one of the Ibiza Holidays that falls outside of June to September you need to be prepared for closed down clubs and very few tourists. You should also remember that the weather outside of these months can be somewhat erratic, so you may find no use for you suntan lotion.

So for anyone looking to party away their summer, a holiday in Ibiza might be just the ticket. Prices can be extortionate, so if you want entry into some of Ibiza’s world famous clubs you’ll need to take plenty of spending money.
