Planning a family reunion in Ibiza
Beach-club mornings, fortified old town evenings, hippie-market afternoons in the north. For a group, weigh a block of hotel rooms against one whole-home rental: the house is usually better value per person and keeps everyone together, while a hotel is simplest for a short stay. Expedia shows both for Ibiza.
Ibiza with kids, realistically
Families give San Antonio's West End a wide berth and base themselves in Santa Eularia, Cala Llonga or Portinatx, where the bays shelve gently and the noise stops early. Aguamar water park at Playa d'en Bossa suits primary ages. The Formentera ferry from Ibiza Town takes about half an hour and buys a beach day away from the sound systems. Dalt Vila's ramps are steep but passable.
What to eat in Ibiza
Island cooking is fisherman's food rather than club food: bullit de peix, a two-part fish stew whose broth then cooks the rice, and sofrit pages, the winter meat-and-potato dish. Ask for flao, the mint and fresh-cheese tart, with hierbas ibicencas afterwards. Santa Gertrudis inland and the fishing shacks at Es Calo and Cala Mastella serve the versions worth eating.
What's actually worth your time in Ibiza
Dalt Vila, the walled upper town, joined the UNESCO list in 1999 for its Renaissance bastions, and the free climb through the Portal de ses Taules is the island's best hour. Ses Salines' salt pans and the Posidonia meadows offshore are listed with it. Benirras draws a drum circle on Sunday evenings. Cala Comte and Cala Salada earn the drive; Es Vedra is purely a viewpoint.
What first-timers get wrong in Ibiza
Season is everything: arriving in November means shuttered clubs, closed restaurants and no Discobus. Club tickets cost less bought online in advance than at the door, and a table is never required. Taxis are metered, scarce and cannot reliably be flagged, so use the ranks or the app. Hire cars need booking months out, and parking near the popular calas fills by ten in the morning.
What things cost in Ibiza
Club entry is 40 to 90 euro on a standard night and considerably more for openings and closings, while a bottle of water inside can reach 12. A sunbed at one of the famous calas runs 25 to 40 for the day. The Discobus costs a few euro a ride. Away from the coast, a menu in a village bar still comes in around 15.

Common questions
What's the best rental for a family reunion?
A large whole-home rental — 5+ bedrooms with multiple bathrooms, a full kitchen, and shared living space — keeps everyone under one roof. Look for ground-floor bedrooms for grandparents and a yard or pool for kids.
How many bedrooms for a big family?
Plan roughly two people per bedroom, plus a sofa bed or two for kids. A group of 10–12 is comfortable in a 5–6 bedroom home with 3+ bathrooms.
How far ahead should we book a reunion?
Big homes for peak dates (summer, holidays) book 6+ months out. Lock in early and use free-cancellation listings so you can adjust the headcount as RSVPs firm up.
What amenities matter most?
A big dining table, a full kitchen, plenty of bathrooms, parking for several cars, and outdoor space. Accessibility (step-free access, a ground-floor bedroom) matters if elders are joining.
