HOSTAL LA TORRE Hostal La Torre is one of our favourite places in Ibiza for watching the sunset. It sits on the rugged coastline at Cap Negret, about 3 km from the town of Sant Antoni de Portmany. Hostal La Torre features a charming courtyard garden at the rear, plus a delightful restaurant with a beautiful terrace offering panoramic views of the sea and Illa sa Conillera. Guests enjoying the garden area. The various terraces offer stunning panoramic views of the surrounding

KUMHARAS Kumharas was established in 1997 and has become a wonderfully laid-back sunset and music bar that is an institution in San Antonio Bay. Miguel Maymó created the concept behind Kumharas and still manages it today. His vision was intentionally distinct from the mass-tourism bars in San Antonio and San Antonio Bay. Photo Twitter (X) @LC300563 Kumharas features no vip areas, no organised coach parties, and a mix of locals, travellers, families, music, and a vibrant sun

RESTAURANTE CA N’ESMERALDA This restaurant has been operating for several years and is located in a secluded area, away from the main town of Sant Antoni de Portmany (San Antonio Abad). It sits near the end of Cala de Bou, offering views of San Antonio Bay. We popped in for a light lunch (do we really have light lunches?) and tried the following. Pan con aioli. Papas asadas, alioli, hilos de chile y nuestro ingrediente especial (roasted potatoes, aioli, chilli threads, and t

CHIRINGUITO MANACA To get to Chiringuito Manaca from Mojácar, drive past the Hotel Indalo on the road from Mojácar to Carboneras. Continue straight inland and take a left at the third roundabout onto Playa Macenas. You will see the Castillo de Macenas just before the Macenas golf course extends inland. Drive past Chiringuito Macenas, where you can stop for a drink or some tapas, and continue onto an unpaved dirt road that isn’t in great condition. This road initially runs alo

RESTAURANTE CASA SALVADOR We recently returned to Casa Salvador, the place in València province for rice, and found it just as wonderful as before. The restaurant is situated in the La Albufera rice-growing region of València, near the Cullera estuary, which is a freshwater lagoon that flows into the sea. It can be a bit challenging to locate. Make your way over the bridge in Cullera via the back road (CV-605). Take a right onto Via Pista, then a left at Poligon Num 28 Estany

CHIRINGUITO CALA ESCONDIDA IBIZA UPDATE AUGUST 2026 - CHIRINGUITO ESCONDIDA sadly lost the tenure of this spot after being massively outbid and has now moved to the far end of Platja d’en Bossa. Unfortunately, not everyone is happy, and locals say this was the only part of the beach that they could use without noise and commercial properties. The new tenant, CasaNua, opened in late July 2026 to mixed reviews. This was the previous incarnation. The walk to Platges de Comte, in

RESTAURANTE ES CUCÓ This restaurant is located on the outskirts of Cala de Bou, moving inland. It is an excellent place to stop for a drink or some reasonably priced food. It is famous for its pollo al ast (traditional rotisserie style, split-roast chicken) with black pepper sauce. Served with chips and salad. We started with a warm goat’s cheese salad. It is a great, cheap meal. The chicken costs €11.50 without sauce and €14 with sauce. In addition to the chicken, you will

RESTAURANTE ANTONIO Zahara de Los Atúnes is a fishing village and a popular summer tourist resort known for its stunning beach facing the Atlantic Ocean. The town is named after the fish because of the traditional seasonal practice of La Almadraba, an ancient Phoenician method of trapping Atlantic bluefin tuna with intricate nets. This technique, introduced by the Moors, takes place every May and June, during which numerous fiestas are celebrated. In a land that deeply honour

RESTAURANTE ES BOLDADO Michelin Guide During our trip to Ibiza in mid-March, we visited one of our favourite restaurants, Es Boldado. To reach it from Sant Josep to Cala d’Hort, take the last right turn toward Cala Truja. After about 3 kilometres, you will see the sign for Es Boldado on your left. Turn onto this road and drive down the dusty Camino (dirt track) for approximately 1.5 kilometres. You will be rewarded with the best view of Ibiza. If you’re seeking a restauran

THE FISH SHACK @ TALAMANCA Chiringuito Sa Punta is a small fish shack on the rocks, situated at the very edge of Talamanca beach. It is hard to find, as there are no signposts or roof guiding you to it. This is one spot you don’t often read about, making it all the more special. Head for the restaurant Sa Punta in Talamanca, and when you reach it, keep going past the rocks. Soon, you will see the tangle of umbrella canopies, wooden tables and plastic chairs. A simple, typical
