With a sweeping, three-kilometre stretch of beach, Playa d'en Bossa really does have something for everyone, whatever type of holiday you want.
And whilst in Ibiza's most popular resort, would you not want to be right by the sea shore? We know we would. Wherever you might want to stay here, all you need do is step outside and you'll be falling over the bars, restaurants and beach clubs that run its entire length
By day, you can lie on the beach or - if the mood takes you - try your hand at active pursuits such as boat trips, quad and Jeep tours. By night, it's a hop, skip and a jump to the many bars of the resort or to one of the super-clubs.
Formentera, the islet of Es Vedrá, and Ibiza Town are all accessible via the ferries that depart from the Playa d'en Bossa ferry terminal. Boat parties also leave from here.
Here is our selection of some of the best places to stay whatever your need, budget or vibe - all with an amazing panorama of Ibiza Town, pirate towers, the big blue sky and the sea beyond.
Ushuaïa Ibiza Beach Hotel
Swim-up rooms and sunbeds sunken in the pool are two magnificent options at the Ushuaia Ibiza Beach Hotel, with rooms that overlook the stage of the famous open-air club, where you can see each night's electrifying entertainment. Or there's the option of going for a room in the adjacent Ushuaïa Tower. Featuring eclectic modernist decor, all the rooms have lovely luxury touches. Then there's a beach club, an oyster and champagne bar and a superb steak restaurant. Pure Ibiza indulgence.
Torre del Mar Hotel
If you want to get away from it all while still being close to Ibiza Town and Playa d'en Bossa, then try the stylish and sophisticated Hotel Torre del Mar. Sun terraces are seemingly everywhere and the sea is right next to you. There's a modern spa, an excellent breakfast buffet, a pool bar and a superb a-la-carte garden restaurant.
