Aquamarine bliss at Torre del Mar
Situated at the start of Playa d'en Bossa, the four-star superior Torre del Mar combines contemporary style with a wealth of great facilities. The pool and garden space is quite something, with views to die for. Inside, each room is soundproofed, in cool, calming tones. If you need to relax further, the sauna, Turkish bath and spa service is always available.
Its close proximity to local nightlife and Ibiza Town, and reputation for its uniquely personal relationship with its guests make it a popular resort destination.

This stylish hotel features superb facilities such as The Core, a central meeting point where the two edifices merge, an emphasis on gastronomy, a broad range of fun activities and some spectacular illumination.
Budget
The rise of the super clubs in recent years has pushed demand for accommodation in Playa d'en Bossa to ever-increasing levels during the high season. Consequently, it can be very hard to stay in the resort on a small budget. To get the best deals, we recommend coming in the low season and taking advantage of the beautiful sandy beach, while the weather is still glorious.
Alternatively, the resort of Figueretas is a short drive away and less-expensive resorts, such as San Antonio, are connected by the affordable Discobus service.
