Hotel Ibara Ibiza
Whitewashed coastal guesthouse
Whitewashed coastal guesthouse
This family-run guesthouse trades Ibiza's party scene for candlelit courtyard dinners and quiet walks to the beach.
What it’s good at
Listed
A 1950s coastal hostal carefully restored by owner Clara Cortés as a family guesthouse.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
A thoroughly overhauled version of one of the neighborhood's oldest hotels, it trades the island's louder tendencies for whitewashed walls, wicker pendants, and rooms in muted earth tones.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The Punta Arabí market sets up right outside twice weekly, and Cala Nova beach is a fifteen-minute walk away.
The rooms
Bedrooms are dressed in neutral linens and light wood, opening out to private balconies or terraces facing the gardens or the sea.
Restaurant
Tantán
Tantán serves seasonal Mediterranean sharing plates and house-made bread at tables set beneath the courtyard olive tree.
At the table
Guests sit in woven wicker armchairs on the gravel terrace over late-afternoon drinks and bowls of olives.
How it began
The property opened in the 1950s as Hostal Casa Pepe, one of the earliest lodgings on the Es Canar coast.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.

Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.

A place apart: the property is the destination.
