Santa Eularia Des Riu, Ibiza | $$$ Clientele: Adults only. Average age skews 30+ with a mix of singles, couples, and groups of friends. TRANQUIL OASIS / BEAUTIFUL POOL / COUNTRYSIDE RETREAT
There are many reasons to keep coming back to the charming, ‘rough luxe’ retreat of Finca Legado, a traditional Finca (Ibicencan Farmhouse) nestled deep in the Ibizan countryside. Perhaps it’s the warm hospitality of owners Andi and Andreas, along with their wonderfully attentive staff, that makes you feel as if you’re staying with an old friend. Or maybe it’s the quirky interiors, where each room has its own unique character, mixing eclectic, artisanal items with recycled and collected elements. Perhaps it’s that serious R&R can easily be achieved in the form of lounging all day beside the idyllic saltwater pool, snacking on the excellent selection of pool bar food after a heady night of partying on the White Isle (big shout out to the bacon and rocket wrap that eased us through many a hangover). Or maybe it’s the weekly ‘BBQ With Friends’ - an intimate evening of delicious food and unlimited booze shared with fellow guests. What we can say without a doubt, is that this is a truly unique, special place and we intend to return for many years to come.
Top Tip:
The Savory Finca breakfast cannot be missed (don’t worry, you have until 11:30am to get to breakfast, just in case you were up late partying the night before ;))

If you go to one party, make it Circoloco at DC10
Dinner at Hostal La Torre for the most stunning Ibizan sunset views
