Top best restaurants in Ibiza 2023

Thu, 16 Mar 2023 10:56:25 GMT

Here are our list of our top favourite restaurants in Ibiza.

Casa Jondal Restaurant

Located in Cala Jondal, in San José, in the southwest of Ibiza, the beach bar is located on a pebble beach with crystal-clear waters, surrounded by pine trees and junipers. The Sevillian Rafa Zafra, alma mater, together with his wife and Ricardo Acquista of the restaurants 'Estimar' in Madrid (1 Sun Repsol Guide) and Barcelona (2 Suns Repsol Guide) now pampers with care his Ibizan beach bar, for him, "a dream come true".

A secluded cove, a simple farmhouse decorated with taste, a team of chefs passionate about Mediterranean produce, an impeccable waiter service and, of course, Ibiza in its purest form. These are the ingredients with which Rafa Zafra created in 2020 - and in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic - the beach bar 'Casa Jondal', which has become a real must for lovers of good food on the White Isle. @casajondal

Sa Calma Marina Ibiza Ibiza Port

A terrace overlooking the quay, with views of the harbour and Dalt Vila, serves hearty dishes of Ibizan and Mediterranean cuisine.

Just behind the Lío discotheque, on the quay, with the historic port and Dalt Vila as a backdrop, is the Calma restaurant, also known by the people of Ibiza as "Sa Calma".

It occupies a glass building which, when the weather is not fine, allows you to enjoy the fantastic panoramic view from inside. However, most days in Ibiza are sunny and the terrace of Sa Calma can be enjoyed intensely.

On summer nights it is a particularly romantic spot, thanks to the spectacle of the illuminated walls. The establishment is run by José María 'Xic', an Ibicencan with a long tradition in the hotel business, who offers hearty dishes from the island as well as Mediterranean cuisine in the form of hearty portions. Many locals go there for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or just for a coffee. @calmarestauranteibiza

Jockey Club Salinas

At Jockey Club Ibiza you will find all the services and quality of a restaurant, without losing the essence of the lively and original beach bars.

Excellent Mediterranean menu, great selection of wines, "Breakfast on the beach", hammocks, fruit & cocktail bar, dj's, Jockey Shop and a cheerful atmosphere of complicity with the client and professionalism.

At Jockey Club Salinas, we are passionate about authenticity and difference. @ jockeyibiza

Sa Punta Ibiza Fine Dining Restaurant

Located at the furthest point of Talamanca bay, only five minutes from bustling Ibiza town and its thriving nightlife scene is Sa Punta, the unique Ibiza restaurant where beautiful locals, clued-up visitors and the international jet-set rendezvous for fabulous food and chilled out vibes in a truly magnificent setting.

The allure of Sa Punta stems from its uber-chic style combined with a relaxed Mediterranean ambience.

Impeccably stylish décor perfectly complements the striking location – sparkling crystal clear waters gently lap the rocky shoreline, complete with spectacular views to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Dalt Vila, the stunning old town of Ibiza.

Since the openings of Patchwork and Ginger in 2014, the gastronomic offering continues to expand. We invite our guests to travel and explore new horizons from the Mediterranean Sea through Lebanon and its art of sharing all the way to far east Asia. Open daily, the innovative menus and exceptional service make Sa Punta, Patchwork and Ginger, essential restaurants in Ibiza – for visitors and residents alike – to experience over and over again. @sapunta

Ses Boques Restaurant. Es Cubells

An authentic, unique and hidden restaurant in one of the paradisiacal corners of the south of the island of Eivissa, near the small village of Es Cubells. In the restaurant we serve fresh seafood in an intimate cove overlooking Formentera.

The wooden terraces and the shade of the pines and junipers create a relaxed atmosphere for lunch and dinner. Fresh fish, seafood paellas and lobster stew are some of the recipes that the Ses Boques family has been preparing with passion for 42 years. @sesboques

Es Xarcu

Located in Sant Josep de Sa Talaia, Es Xarcu also has a long history of more than 30 years, a family business that still retains its old essence as a beach bar. Its position is unbeatable, with unique views of the unspoilt cove from which the establishment takes its name.

Its spacious terrace is almost literally a balcony overlooking the Mediterranean. It is worth a visit both during the day and at night, because the atmospheres, always charming, are very different, most romantic at sunset.

Es Xarcu is a restaurant with a rural feel and informal atmosphere, specialising in fish and seafood, which also offers high quality rice dishes.

It respects the local produce, using a wide variety of authentic island fish baked in the oven using a traditional method and a distinctive personal touch, accompanied by potatoes, onions or local peppers. @esxarcu

Peaceful beaches in Ibiza you probably don’t know about

The panoramic views of the stunning Ibizan countryside, its discreet and peaceful location invite you to relax and enjoy the simple and natural beauty.

Es Cavallet

Despite it being one of Ibiza’s most famous beaches and being located next to the popular Ses Salines beach, Es Cavallet is more than a kilometre long and 30 metres wide. Its small car park means that it is not a very busy beach, so you will always find plenty of room. Es Cavallet was one of the first nudist beaches in Spain. It stands out for its wild nature, surrounded by dunes and junipers, its clear water and its view of Formentera.

Es Codolar

To the east of Sa Caleta and literally under the airport's plane route, Es Codolar is one of the longest and least frequented beaches on the island. It is completely covered with greyish stones (in Catalan a pebble is a 'codol'), which makes it difficult to access for bathers (we recommend swimming shoes), but once you get past this barrier, its fine sand and crystal clear waters will make you feel like you're in heaven.

On windier days or after a storm some intrepid surfer will try his luck to see if he can ride a wave. It's also popular with the locals, especially dog walkers. The views in the background are of the famous salt ponds of Las Salinas - part of the Ses Salines Natural Park.

Punta Galera

Get ready to be left breathless, because Punta Galera is one of the most impressive landscapes in Ibiza, and the first time you see it you will be awestruck. The cove is made up of huge slabs of smooth rock that form terraces up and down the mountain. Their smooth shape, caused by erosion, makes these stones a great place to sunbathe. It is worth visiting to enjoy its relaxing atmosphere, silence and impressive crystalline waters, perfect for snorkelling.

Cala Xuclar

Cala Xuclar is located in a beautiful natural setting, surrounded by mountains and native vegetation. As it is an enclosed cove, the water is usually calm, so practising sports such as kayaking or paddle surfing may be one of the best ideas that come to mind.

The outside of this almost virgin beach is made up of medium-grain sand, while inside you'll find boulders and rocks that invite you to snorkel. If you remember, grab your fins and snorkel! And if you have a fishing rod and feel like taking it with you, try and see if you can get a bite.

The most prized feature of this cove in the north of San Juan is that it is one of the least crowded during the summer season (or at least it used to be). This allows you to enjoy the sun and the sound of the sea without too many distractions. However, the beach is not too big, so don't expect to arrive at the last minute to choose a spot. You can spread out your towel on the sand or, if you prefer, in front of the fishermen's huts that form part of the landscape. This will give you some extra privacy.

Terra Masía, from farm to table

Mon, 29 Aug 2022 11:17:21 GMT

The panoramic views of the stunning Ibizan countryside, its discreet and peaceful location invite you to relax and enjoy the simple and natural beauty.

Terra Masía is a very well-known farm in Ibiza for its dedication to sustainable agriculture for decades, known as Cas Mallorquin. It has the largest area of organic fruit and agricultural production in Ibiza, 53 hectares, and its aim is to continue in this line of commitment to environmental conservation. One of their objectives is to become a benchmark for agricultural production on the island.

This certified organic farm, one of the largest in Ibiza, is also an oasis of Mediterranean beauty, with its colourful and tasty vegetables that it produces. Marina Morán Jou is the creator of the farm. As descendant of farmers, she carries the land both in her heart and in her veins. Accompanied by her passionate team, she researches different sustainable techniques, such as green manure, pest control, etc., with the aim of becoming a benchmark for sustainable farming.

For a direct farm-to-table experience, you can either pick up or receive their organic basket of freshly harvested products, 100% organic and seasonal. You can also enjoy their sunset dinners as they collaborate with the best chefs on the island to create evenings of dining under the starlit fields. Their personalised menu is accompanied by special organic wines and healthy cocktails using the farm's ingredients. It can also be a perfect location for customised celebrations or business lunches.
