Casa Maria, Ibiza

Advantages: The spectacular sunrises, and scenery
Disadvantages: The Westend in San An is grim

...were going to Club 18-30s accommodation BUT it was cheap £189 for the week per person. After being picked up by our teenaged rep we got to our apartments - we were first to be dropped off which was great. Easy check-in although they wanted to keep my passport behind the counter - l didn’t want this so after a bit of wrangling l got my own way! Off up to our room - No 203 Casa Maria - slap bang in the Centre of San Antonio!! (I took my earplugs!) I wasn’t expecting much to be honest - well l was pleasantly surprised - it was a studio apartment which had obviously been recently renovated. Two single beds and a sofa bed, a kitchenette with 2 rings and a fridge and a decent sized bathroom (with no bidet!!) and the balcony was decent too. Club 18-30 are notorious for dragging customers to welcome meetings - l was well aware... Read review

...You have probably heard of San Antonio, Ibiza? Some of you may have even been there, it has had a lot of bad publicity over the years, which has encouraged more and more younger people to go, and by so doing has put quite a lot of families and older people off, Please don’t let all you hear put you off of such a beautiful place.

Let me tell you a bit about my experience of the bay and you decide then what you think.! My first encounter with Ibiza was 5 years ago, my friend, her Husband, Daughter (then 21... Read review

...This was my first experience of skiing and I can safely say that I will be going again (but not back to Pas de la Casa). It has been described as the Ibiza on Snow and as a general indication of what you can expect this is not far wrong. The facilities are fine. Plentiful chair lifts, good runs up and over the main resort into neighbouring resorts and the snow is pretty reliable. I was lucky to have gorgeous weather there in March which certianly made the experience a delight. Lessons are widely available and all the instructors speak English. Mine (Ricard) was a true character and a joy to learn with. Others were more fierce and less understanding I hear, so this is a bit of pot luck. Hotels here are not exactly classy. It is basic and functional. Walls are thin, doors slam loudly. But the resort is small and nowhere is out... Read review
