2023 was a bumper season on Ibiza. As we go into 2024, the white island is already gearing up for the approach of spring.
Once definitely part of the off-season, the month of March is now the opener to the extended holiday season that goes all the way into early November.
That’s why ever more hotels are bringing the season forward by opening their doors earlier than normal. One reason is the early Easter this year - March 31 - just days after the spring solstice. For those who appreciate the island’s unique natural beauty at this time of year - the glorious sight of its stunning almond blossoms alone makes it worth a visit - and the chance to engage in a plethora of outdoor activities - including a refreshing dip in the Med - it’s a great time to come.
For those early-birders among you then, check out our suggestions below for the best places to stay on Ibiza this coming spring and book the accommodation that hits your sweet spot.
For devotees of glamping, opening 1 February, El Parco by Camping Ibiza in San Antonio is the place to secure your pitch and soak up its unique social atmosphere.
