Which locations to choose for a wellness holiday in Ibiza?
Imagine being on a yacht in Ibiza, while you are plowing the waves of the sea on your chartered yacht suddenly you want to spend a day different from the others, in a location specially designed to regenerate you both physically and mentally. Well, what to do? Ibiza is known for its trendy and unrestrained parties, not for being a place to seek pure well-being. Will you necessarily have to go elsewhere? Absolutely not!
Although known for being one of the best destinations to find fun in the Mediterranean, Ibiza actually has a more relaxed side that has attracted more and more wellness-loving tourists in recent years. Yoga centers, relaxing hotels, crystal shops, spas, and restaurants with healthy menus are scattered all over the island; a large number of places where you can find inner peace, harmony, and connection with nature, or at least try to do it!
With an increasingly hectic lifestyle, devoted to work only, during their holidays more and more people are looking for tranquility and a way to completely get away from the chaos of everyday life.
As an international yacht charter broker, we have noticed this type of need in our customers and we, therefore, decided to compile the following small guide with some of the best locations for an alternative type of holiday in Ibiza:
The best wellness retreats in Ibiza
Six Senses
After its very recent opening, in the summer of 2021, the Six Senses has jumped to the top of the ranking of Ibiza’s luxury resorts and has contributed significantly to increasing its reputation as an island of well-being.
Located in the north of the island, near the resort of Portinatx and the bay of Xarraca, it offers the standards of a luxury resort with spacious rooms, a splendid swimming pool, direct access to the Mediterranean, and an impeccable service designed to improve one’s physical, mental and emotional well-being.
The proposed therapies are the most diverse and range from sessions with the sleep doctor with whom to discuss potential disorders and evaluate your sleep during the stay or the podiatrist who will examine your feet and ankles to increase their mobility.
Without forgetting the spa treatments that include crystals with herbs collected locally and wellness retreats, real full immersions that last from one to seven days and are aimed at discovering oneself.
While not everyone is keen to train on vacation, Six Senses offers various ideas for practicing sports. In addition to a fully equipped gym and an outdoor boxing ring, there is a yoga program with several indoor and outdoor sessions each week.
Last but not least is the food, to which Six Senses dedicates particular care. Grilled fish, plant-based dishes, and biodynamic wines are among the highlights of restaurants throughout the property with menus designed based on ingredients grown both on-site and on a nearby farm.
Oku Ibiza
Also very recent, characterized by a particular and minimalist design, Oku Ibiza is an exclusive resort perched on a hill not far from Sant Antoni de Portmany, in the north of the island. OKU is a place where luxury meets well-being and where you can indulge in everything from a stunning pool area with king-size beds, to Reiki treatments in the spa, as well as a fully equipped gym and yoga classes during the morning.
The art of breakfast has found a home at Oku thanks to a rich buffet made of fresh fruit and berries, coconut yogurt, pressed juices, vegetables, and any delicacy to start the day well. Oku Restaurant offers fusion cuisine with influences from both Japan and South America and also serves highly respected vegan dishes that will make even its worst detractors change their minds.
Nobu Ibiza Bay
Located in Cap Martinet, near the main port and a short distance from the historic center of Ibiza city, this fantastic hotel offers a stay of rest, nutritious food, and personal well-being. The days begin practicing yoga on the roof while enjoying a panoramic view of the rising sun and then proceed to the spa, truly complete in every aspect, from relaxing massages to organic facials practiced by professionals and specialists both local and not, rituals and personalized treatments that fall into the category of holistic well-being.
The day ends with dinner at the Nobu restaurant where you can order the signature dish: black cod marinated in miso, for a unique gastronomic experience.
7Pines Resort Ibiza
This sumptuous hotel, the 7Pines, is located on the northwest coast of the island and enjoys a wonderful view offering unforgettable sunsets.
Here you can decide to relax in the infinity pool while enjoying the view on the mysterious and magnetic island of Es Vedrà (shrouded in many myths and legends, considered one of the most magnetic places on Earth). If, on the other hand, you are more active, take part in a training session or a yoga class in their exceptional gym on the property. Instead, if you are more of the idea to be pampered, you can always take advantage of the spa and try one or more beauty treatments, including wraps, salt scrubs, wellness rituals, foot reflexology, massages, and much more.
Hacienda Na Xamena
Hacienda Na Xamena is a splendid spa hotel located in the north of the island. Built-in a unique position, it offers a breathtaking view over the coves of the bay. It is an ideal place to enjoy a quieter holiday dedicated to health. The property organizes walks in the beautiful surrounding hills, yoga and meditation classes overlooking the ocean, and poolside foot massages.
The spa, called La Posidonia, offers not only incredible massages and facials but also a unique experience in the outdoor pools, the Cascadas Suspendidas.
The restaurant offers a wide selection of healthy and locally sourced delicacies, such as a beetroot gazpacho, tomatoes from their garden, and fresh fish from the coast.
