About Ibiza
Ibiza has long attracted an artistic, bohemian crowd. Its tourism industry blossomed in the 1950s, and has continued to rise in popularity ever since. Aside from the island’s cosmopolitan nightlife, you can expect a relaxed atmosphere and plenty of style. Our desirable villas come in all shapes and sizes, and all have showstopping swimming pools.
The island is liberally sprinkled with unspoilt coves and beaches. You won’t have to look too far to find your own patch of privacy. You can also head out for the day into the rural interior, and discover some of Ibiza’s lesser known towns and villages.
Some of our luxury villas in Ibiza occupy dramatic positions with far-reaching sea views. Others are surrounded by pine and eucalyptus forests, or are moments from the beach like Villa Jondal.
If you’re feeling energetic, walk the island’s best known trail from Cala de Bou to Platges de Comte. You’ll also find windsurfing and kitesurfing schools in Ibiza, as well as a number of dive centres. Other attractions include the famous salt flats and the Cova de Can Marçà natural caves. Or simply chill out in Ibiza Town and watch the world go by.

Currency
The Euro (€) is the official currency of Spain. Coins are available in 1 cent, 2 cent, 5 cent, 10 cent, 20 cent, 50, cent , €1 & €2 denominations. Notes are available in €5, €10, €20, €50, €100, €200, €500 denominations.
Money Matters
Travellers cheques are widely accepted for exchange or purchase in major cities, but in more rural areas, visit a bank to exchange them for Euros. Major credit cards are widely accepted here (though a limited number of merchants have American Express accounts) and ATM access is widespread.
Exchange currency only at authorized outlets such as banks and hotels, and exchange only what you think you will spend in-country. Coins cannot be reconverted on departure.
Save all receipts from any currency exchange transaction. You may be asked to produce them when you exit the country, and they are required if you intend to reconvert local currency.
Tipping Suggestions
The Spaniards are fairly relaxed about tipping etiquette. However service is not usually included in restaurants and it is common practice to leave the spare change, or up to 10% of the total in a smarter restaurant. Taxi drivers and bartenders may be tipped less. Many petrol stations are not self service, however it is not usual to tip the station attendant.
