Barcelo Portinatx

This adults-only hotel is pitched up just a few steps from a quiet cove – the perfect setting for a serene escape to the shores of Ibiza. This place is right at home in the subdued surroundings of Portinatx, a seaside resort that feels a world away from the thumping nightlife of Ibiza Town and San Antonio.

A smart, split-level terrace is home to a pair of pools, one of which comes with a slew of Bali beds where you can lounge in style. And that’s how days are best spent here – firmly in the slow lane. If you need an extra bit of R&R, book yourself a massage with a view, thanks to the outdoor wellness centre with sea-view terrace.
