Balansat Resort, Ibiza

Once a haven for artists and flower children, Ibiza is now a summer retreat for Europe’s leisurely wealthy who, when they choose to wear anything at all, strut about town in fashionable, expensive attire. A constant whirl of social activity exists in the city and on the island, which you’ll either adore or detest. But partying is not all Ibiza has to offer. The town’s enchanting whitewashed old quarter, known as Dalt Vila, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1999. Stroll up its narrow steep lanes to the cathedral and castle. The view of the walled city and the port is spectacular, especially at sunset. The island capital is located on the southeastern coast and is a delightful place brimming with stylish boutiques, swanky bars and an appealing marina lined with yachts and high-end cuisine, as well as the world famous super club Pacha. Ibiza offers endless possibilities for all types of travellers. Whether you’re there to dance till the wee hours, unwind on a beach or soak up some culture, Ibiza is a fantastic summer holiday destination.
