If you are looking for a destination for a beach holiday that gives you a break from crowds and noise, then Ibiza is your best option… I know what you must be thinking: Ibiza is popular for its nightlife and crowded beach clubs, but if you look past that, there’s a whole different island waiting to be explored, and the best place to start is Santa Eulalia.
Situated on the East Coast, this place is known for its calm beaches and a completely different vibe. Offering a calm area without loud music or crowded clubs, top-notch restaurants, and amazing places to stay.
Finding the Best Spot to Stay
There’s no better place to stay than a town like Santa Eulalia, which will be your base, but the actual accommodation you choose will make or break your holidays. While there are a ton of hotels and resorts in the area, there’s no better option than Casa Luis Apartments, which is a top pick if you’re looking for pure relaxation.
It’s located just a few minutes from the town center and is really close to top-notch beaches like Sa Caleta, Playa Niu Blau and Es Farallo, just to name a few. It offers stunning swimming pools and areas to walk.
As for the town itself, most people think that there’s nothing to do in a quiet town, but Santa Eulalia will surprise you big time. Just a few minutes walking distance from the accommodation, you will find Puig de Missa, a stunning 16th-century whitewashed church on a hill, and back down in the town, you can stroll along the only river in the Balearic Islands (yes, Santa Eulalia is home to the only river in the whole archipelago).
A Taste of the Local Food Scene
Santa Eulalia is amazing by itself; its history and attractions alone make it a great option, but on top of that, the town is known as Ibiza’s food capital. There you can find the popular Street of Restaurants, which is packed with a ton of restaurants.
The best place to find fresh seafood, traditional food, and even fusion or high-end cuisine. The best part is how lively the are feels, but in a good way, not in a “party way”; some people describe it like a big family meal.
You can surely find something you like, from steak to simple olives.
Exploring the Beaches Without the Crowds
There’s no trip to Ibiza completed without beaches, and one of the biggest pros of Santa Eulalia is its beaches. Right in town, you can find soft white sand and smoke-free areas that keep it fresh for bare feet.
The water is shallow, calm, and safe, which makes it perfect for relaxing. If you want a change of pace, then you can head to Cala Llonga, which is a cove situated between green hills. It’s still clear water is ideal for swimming or floating.
Ibiza is the perfect place for a beach holiday, and Santa Eulalia just proves that it’s also suitable for a family trip or for those who are looking for relaxation instead of nightlife. It has everything you need for the perfect holiday: amazing accommodation and several different types to choose from, world-class cuisine, incredible beaches, and interesting attractions to visit.
