How To… Summer in Ibiza

Forget images of Jade Jagger’s gypset and pill-popping Liverpudlians, sultry Balearic babe Ibiza has sprouted from her psychedelic roots and shirked pubescent stereotypes to blossom into a full-blown, grown-up sip, sup, stay and play p-leisure zone.

While music remains intrinsic to the Ibiza experience – with the world-pace-setting EDM a huge drawcard – the diverse and enthralling audio offering is more than ever mirrored in the intoxicating blend of landscapes and amusements.

Dry, arid hills, shimmering azure waters and cloudless blue skies set the scene for all the hustle, bustle, seclusion or silence you seek. There truly is something for everyone – strobe-lit mega events, stunning natural wonders, first-rate cuisine, charming traditional nuances, frenetic action and deep relaxation. All you need to do is find your right beat. So if you’re heading to Spain this summer, here are all the LUXE-approved spots to know for a saucy out-of-town sojourn.
