San Jose

Don’t worry about being inland. There are dozens of stunning beaches close to your San Jose villa, including hidden coves reached via sweaty hikes, the brash busy beaches of San Antonio and chic beach clubs packed with a wealthy and glamorous crowd.

Scintillating sunsets are the calling card of the west coast. It’s a short hop to magical Cala d’Hort, a glistening blue cove that attracts yachties and beach bums to watch the sun set behind Es Vedrà island.

To the south, Es Cubells is a crystal-clear bay with a restaurant under the pines.

Your San Jose holiday home is surrounded by beautiful countryside, so get out and explore it! There are hiking, biking and even horse riding trails to follow. But for the best views around, slog it up to Cap de Sa Talaia to watch the hills unfurl in front of you towards the deep blue Mediterranean Sea.

City slickers needn’t miss out either. Ibiza Town has all the museums, historic architecture, sophisticated shopping and hip restaurants you can handle. 

If you’d rather spend time in the ocean, there are tons of water sports to choose from. Want to learn how to dive? Done. Explore the coastline on a stand-up paddle board? No problem. Enjoy a thrilling ride over the waves on a jet ski? Easily arranged. If it exists, you can probably do it here.

Make sure you’ve got room in your suitcase. Quirky Souvenirs, Ibizan fashion and colourful handmade ceramics are all available in San Jose, thanks to an electric mix of boutiques. Ibiza Town, meanwhile, is your best bet for serious retail therapy, particularly if you’re into designer labels

For offbeat clothing, crafts and work by local artists, hit one of Ibiza’s famous hippy markets. There are several dotted around the island, often in beautifully bucolic locations. These places are all about the vibe so come prepared for street food, music and even dancing.

For a small village, San Jose packs a significant culinary punch! Tantalise your taste buds with eclectic international fare or go old school with traditional Ibizan tapas at one of several friendly bars. You might even be treated to live music as you dine

DJs and posing more your scene? Try a beach club in Ibiza Town. Or, for candlelight and romance, find a quiet restaurant in a hidden cove where you can dine with your toes in the sand. 

If you’re looking for supplies for your San Jose holiday villa, you’ll find all the fresh produce you need in the village, from supermarkets, to fishmongers to patisseries. A weekly farmers market offers organic meat fruit and vegetables as well as freshly baked goods.

Family holidays in San Jose are a breeze. For starters, you’ve got yourself a spacious family-friendly villa with all manner of fantastic amenities. If you’re thinking swimming pool, large garden and well-equipped kitchen you’d be right! And that’s before we’ve got to the fabulous views!

If you can drag yourself away from your private oasis, the San Jose region is ripe for fun-filled excursions. Get down to the beaches for warm water frolics and high-octane water sports or hit the hills by mountain bike, on foot or even by off-road jeep. 

Or, for manufactured fun, there are theme parks, activity centres and water parks to keep the kids entertained. Whatever your preference there’s no chance they’ll be bored!
