Top 20 Cool and Unusual Hotels in Ibiza 2023

Ibiza – or the ‘White Isle’ as many know it – is a beautiful island of incredible contrasts. Famed as the party capital of the world, its dizzying nightclubs, chic beach bars, and epic beach parties allure visitors to its sandy shores. What many first-timers are unaware of, however, is that this Balearic island is just as much rural and relaxing as it is buzzing, trendy and fun. 

Small coves lapped by the Mediterranean, biodiversity reserves beautified by pine forests, and sleepy villages full of fortified churches, bring a paradisiacal setting to the island.

Ibiza is also home to a jaw-dropping hospitality scene, where chic eco-friendly boutique hotels stand side by side with trendy beachfront resorts with resident DJs perfect for partying. It’s actually one of my favorite islands in the world and from my many trips here, these are my favorite cool and unusual hotels in Ibiza, Spain (in no particular order).
