Home description
Situated on the front line of the Marina Botofoch, this luxuary apartment is just a stone throw away from El Divino Night club (Home of Defected and Hed Kandi) and just 6 minutes walk away from Pacha, a club that needs no further mention The cool living room and terrace is exelent to chill out in while the bedrooms promote the Love of Ibiza, perfect for a family or a group of clubbers alike. The Marina is one of the best locations in Ibiza. Near to the super clubs, yet tucked away from the noise of the busy 24hour town centre which is just a quick (and very cheap) water taxi or normal taxi ride away...Perfect!

The Ibiza region
Eivissa or Ibiza is one of the Balearic Islands located in the Mediterranean Sea, and belonging to Spain. With Formentera, it is one of the two Illes Pitiüses. Major cities are Ibiza Town, Santa Eulària des Riu and San Antonio.
Eivissa is the official Catalan name and the name used by its inhabitants; but the name used by Spanish speakers and the rest of the world is Ibiza (usually pronounced using the Castilian morphology: ih-'bee-thuh).
Eivissa is a very popular tourist destination, especially due to its legendary riotous nightlife (mainly in Ibiza Town, the island's capital on the eastern shore). The most famous clubs include Privilege (the world's largest club which holds the weekly event known worldwide as Manumission on Monday nights), Es Paradis (famous for its water parties), Amnesia (famous for its foam parties and what goes on there), Space (opens at around 8AM) and Pacha. Ibiza is also famous for Café del Mar, a chill spot in Sant Antoni de Portmany where many people watch the sunset every night.
History In 654 BCE Phoenician settlers founded a port in the Balearic Islands, as Ibossim, later known to Romans (as "Ebusus") for its wine, marble, and lead. The Greeks who came to Ibiza during the time of the Phoenicians were the first to call the two islands of Ibiza and Formentera the Pitiusas ("pine-covered islands"). With the decline of Phoenicia after the Assyrian invasions, Ibiza came under the umbrella of Carthage, also a former Phoenician colony. The island produced dye, salt, fish sauce (garum), and wool.
Eivissa, Cala de sa Galera, with the Puig Nunó in the backgroundA shrine with offerings to the goddess Tanit was established in the cave at Es Cuyram, and the rest of the Balearic Islands entered Eivissa's commercial orbit after 400 BCE. Ibiza was a major trading post along the Mediterranean routes. Iberia began setting up its own trading stations along the nearby Balearic island of Mallorca, from which great quantities of the renowned Balearic slingers were hired as mercenaries for the diverse wars Carthage was fighting.
During the Second Punic War the island was assaulted by the two Scipio brothers 209 BCE but remained loyal to Carthage. With Carthaginian military luck running out on the Iberian mainland, Ibiza was last used by the fleeing Carthaginian General Mago to gather supplies and men before sailing to Menorca and then to Liguria. Ibiza managed to negotiate a favorable treaty with the Romans, who spared Ibiza from further destruction and allowed it to survive with its Carthaginian-Punic institutions well into the Empire days, when it became an official Roman municipality. This survival made Ibiza an excellent place to study Carthaginian-Punic civilization in later years, but also turned the island into a sleepy imperial outpost as it became more and more detached from the important trading routes of the time.
The island was conquered by James I of Aragon in 1235.
So there you have it. BUT above all Ibiza is a place of magic - and everyone who goes there finds there special vibe from a four year old child to a late 80's grand mother Ibiza has some magic for EVERYONE - and everyone who goes there will find their happy bit of love of their own....
Marina Botafoc area
If you want to head into town then you can walk around the bay or if you can’t be bothered. a very cheap (50p) water taxi will take you directly across. From here you can sample the bars and night life that Ibiza old town has to offer.
Base Bar is one of the more famous ones and a good place to catch the processions or buy tickets for your favourite disco. I thoroughly recommend heading up to the castle to see where the people of Ibiza used to and still live. As the narrow streets lead you higher and higher the view over the Island becomes more and more beautiful. Be sure to sample one of the many restaurants that are liberally placed all around between the bars and exclusive funky clothes and designer jewelery shops.
Morning breakfast can be had in the World famous Café Sidney which serves continental style breakfasts based on most European Capitals. (London, Amsterdam, Paris, etc) In fact they do a rather nice steak salad for lunch and the dinner menu is also reasonably priced. Don’t be surprised to see A-list celebrities alongside famous DJ's sitting on the tables next to you. (The Ocean Drive building opposite is often used to accommodate them.) While you are there you can gaze over to the some 50 or so yachts berthed in the Marina, none of which are worth less than 500,000 euros.
The Talamanca beach is about 300 meters from the apartment. Here you will find the bodies of the beautiful the rich and the famous who for one reason or another do not want to be spotted on the Salinas beach. With a hand full of very laid back and reasonably priced beach front cafes and restaurants, this is one of the best places to relax in peace and quite after a hard nights clubbing.
