Ibiza Holidays

Whether you're after all-night superclubs or all-day sunbathing, holidays to Ibiza deliver the kind of summer you'll still be talking about in December. Come for the beats, stay for the sunsets.

🎉 Holidays to Ibiza 2026 / 2027

• The party island - Superclubs, sunset strips and boat parties.

• More than 50 beaches - From the buzzing 3km stretch at Playa d'en Bossa to hidden coves on the north coast.

• All-inclusive options - Resorts where everything from poolside cocktails to kids' club entertainment is sorted before you land.

• Weekend breaks and short trips - Direct flights from across the UK and Ireland mean a long weekend in Ibiza is genuinely doable. Three nights, sorted.

• Family-friendly resorts - Calm bays, waterparks and hippy markets on the east coast. Ibiza family holidays are a thing, and a brilliant one at that.

🎧 Fun Facts about Ibiza

• ☀️ Weather - Highs of 30 degrees through July and August with barely any rain. Shoulder months (May, June, September, October) sit at 22-28 degrees with warm seas and smaller crowds.

• World’s Largest Club - UNVRS (pronounced "universe") formerly known as Privilege holds the Guinness World Record as the world's largest nightclub with a 10,000 capacity. It reopened in summer 2025 as UNVRS run by the team behind Ushuaia and Hi Ibiza.

• UNESCO Heritage - Ibiza’s Old Town, Dalt Vila, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, blending history and culture with the island’s buzzing party reputation.

• Sunset Rituals - head to Benirrás Beach on a Sunday for the famous sunset drumming session—a proper Ibiza tradition. 🌅🥁

• Money - Euros. A beer in a resort bar runs about €4 and a menu del día lunch about €15.

Been there, done that

My top tip would be - book a sunset cruise with a DJ. There is something about being out on the water as the sun goes down with music playing that will genuinely be one of the best evenings of your life. The snorkelling in the sea caves is stunning too, and don't let the size of some of them put you off, the instructors are brilliant and they'll guide you through every inch of it. For food, get yourself to Puerto Fino and order the T-bone steak. And then spend an evening in the old town, Dalt Vila - it's a completely different Ibiza up there, cobbled streets, candlelit restaurants, the kind of atmosphere where you just feel like you belong. Goes with the party island reputation about as well as you'd expect, which is to say: perfectly.

Ibiza is perfect for you if...

• You want to see the DJs you love, rocking the rooms they write their sets for

• You like to party, seriously, so you like a serious party

• You want the party and the quiet on the same island, because Playa d'en Bossa and a silent north-coast cove are half an hour apart

• You have kids and you want the east coast: calm bays, a Wednesday hippy market and family resorts, with the superclubs a world away on the other side (but reachable if you want them)

• You want a big weekend that is two and a half hours from home, so three nights is genuinely worth the trip

Cheap Ibiza holidays

How cheap you can make your holidays in Ibiza come down to two decisions: when you go, and which side of the island you book. The club season runs May to October, and the two ends of it, May into mid-June and the whole of October, cost a fraction of August with the same venues running the same residencies. May gives you that spring energy (and slightly more crowds) but October gives you a sea still warm enough to swim in.

Where you stay does the rest of the work. Playa d'en Bossa and Ibiza Town are the island's dearest postcodes. San Antonio Bay, Es Canar, Cala Llonga and Portinatx are often quite a bit cheaper, admittedly you're a little further away from the clubs but the Discobus runs between the resorts and the clubs all night for a few euros, so a cheaper base does not have to mean a quieter holiday.

All-inclusive is the other thing that's really worth thinking about because a drink at an Ibiza beach club costs several times what the same drink costs in a resort bar. Get the food and drink covered in the package, do a decent pre-game at the resort before you head out and you can dramatically improve the cost of the trip.

The tickets to the big club events are the big cost of an Ibiza holiday that you can't get around, so book those early  (they're much dearer on the night) and then plan your holiday around them and you can have a completely banging trip to Ibiza for less than you might think.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 What are the best cheap family hotels in Ibiza?

• Occidental Ibiza - Three pools, a kids' club, mini discos and a multi-sports court in San Antonio Bay, with all-inclusive board available. The board basis is what makes the sums work here: everything is covered and nobody is buying ice creams by the pool.

• Invisa Hotel Ereso - All-inclusive on the quiet east coast at Es Canar, a few minutes from the Wednesday hippy market and a calm beach. Well away from the club prices, and a different island entirely from Playa d'en Bossa.

🎉 What are the best cheap hotels in Ibiza for groups?

• ENDLSS Ibiza - San Antonio Bay, flexible packages and DJ sets by the pool, and one of the best-value places to put a group on the island. The Discobus into San Antonio runs all night, so the location saves you money without costing you the nights out.

• Vibra San Remo Hotel - Straightforward all-inclusive in San Antonio Bay, ten minutes from the Sunset Strip. Nothing fancy, everything covered, and the money goes on the tickets instead of the tab.

🗺️ Ibiza Holidays 2026/2027 - Travel Guide

• Beachfront dining - Book a table at a seafront restaurant in Santa Eulalia and let grilled seafood and chilled sangria do the talking. La Paloma in San Lorenzo is a proper foodie gem with garden dining and homegrown ingredients.

🎉 What is there to do in Ibiza for groups?

• Boat party - Catamaran cruises with beats, bubbly and sea breeze run from most harbours. Oceanbeat is one of the biggest operators.

• Sunset Strip crawl - Start at Cafe del Mar in San Antonio, work your way along the strip and finish at Ibiza Rocks. The golden hour here is unmatched.

• Por favor - Please

• Gracias - Thank you

• Una cerveza, por favor - A beer, please (you'll be saying this one a lot)
