Because it is so near to Ibiza Town and Playa d'en Bossa (both a 5-minute drive or 15-minute walk away) and offers real local flair, Figueretas (Figueretes in Catalan) is a much loved holiday destination for people of all ages.
Beach and promenade
A lovely central beach, divided into smaller parts, is right in front of several apartment and hotel buildings and is bordered by a long, palm-fringed promenade which has had a total makeover for summer 2019 offering a cleaner, more open aspect to the area.
Small ferries depart from the jetties on both ends, to Ibiza Town, Playa d'en Bossa and for great daytime excursions to the famous hippy market in Es Caná and the Caribbean-like beaches of sister island Formentera.
In the evening when the sun cools a little but the sea still sparkles, the promenade is lined with artists and craft stalls, lending a distinctly Bohemian atmosphere to the area.
Things to do
Figueretas is a great base for exploring the island or getting active with a great choice of things to do nearby.
Explore Ibiza by Jeep, on foot or even on water with one of the many amazing boat trips on offer with some also going to the beautiful neighbouring island of Formentera. If you just want to visit Formentera, catch a ferry from the jetty in front of the One Hotel.
Restaurants and bars
In Figueretas, you'll get not only a great variety of restaurants and bars but also great prices which makes the resort popular with locals too. All along the seafront promenade restaurants offer terraces with dreamy sea views. In the streets parallel to the promenade you'll find many small cosy restaurants with modern design and tasty food choices from breakfasts and brunches to late night fare.
You can travel around the world in cuisines from Spain to Italy, then on to India, China, Japan and even Mexico. Many of the hotels, including the luxury ones, have great restaurants open to the public, with Ibiza Town offering a whole lot more only a 15-minute walk away.
Nightlife
Should you be tempted to visit Ibiza's famous clubs and bars, the resort's location could not be better. Head south to Playa d'en Bossa and check out Ushuaïa, the most talked about open-air party venue on the island, with a spectacular stage right next to the pool, and the neighbouring state-of-the-art Hï Ibiza with music by highly respected DJs and amazing light shows.
Alternatively, head north and you'll find yourself in the middle of Ibiza Town, with everything from gorgeous bars, mouth-watering restaurants, the fantastic fortified old town of Dalt Vila and the internationally celebrated and iconic club Pacha.
Accommodation
You will find a varied selection of hotels and apartments throughout Figueretas. Many line the palm-fringed promenade and are just a few steps away from the beach. Part of the resort is in an elevated position: this means terrific views of the sea, especially in the places that have roof terraces.
A good number of affordable budget places to stay are available and suit all kinds of guests from party people to families. There are also boutique and luxury options and a good selection of gay-friendly accommodation, as this resort is very popular with the LGBTQ community.
