Catalonia Royal Ses Estaques—Adults Only, Ibiza

Pros

• Though the property doesn't provide direct beach access, the hotel is right on Santa Eulalia's rocky coastline and offers sea views from all the rooms. 
• Every unit is a suite, so guests will have a furnished terrace, a sofa, and plenty of space. 
• Upgraded suites offer two terraces (one overlooking the sea and the other the property's gardens), plus a seating area and dining table. 
• Some suites have direct pool access, allowing guests to swim to their rooms. 
• The breakfast buffet is large and impressive, the on-site eatery has al fresco seating overlooking the coast, and the lounge offers free drinks and bites like coffee, tea, and pastries in the afternoon.
• There are two pools, one a rooftop infinity pool with sea views and the other next to an outdoor lounge with hammocks and sunbeds.

Cons

• Though the hotel does offer relaxing spaces, the overall look of the property is big and a little generic. 
• The hotel is popular with weddings and can get busy on the weekends. 

Authenticity

Catalonia Royal Ses Estaques does a good job channeling the appeal of the hotel's location in Santa Eulalia, which has traditionally served those seeking a quieter retreat. The outdoor spaces are known as "chill out" areas—perfect for that Ibizan vibe. Balinese sunbeds with gauzy curtains, hammocks hung between pine trees, and wicker furniture all offer spaces to relax and enjoy the region's bohemian atmosphere.

Location

Enjoy staying on Ibiza's eastern coast in Santa Eulalia, known as one of the quieter hubs on the island and a favorite among locals. One side of the hotel faces the city and port, whereas the other offers views of the nearby sea cliffs and coves. You'll be a 30-minute drive from the historic center of Ibiza Town and just 15 minutes by foot to the main beach of Santa Eulalia.

Rooms & Bathrooms

All units at Royal Ses Estaques are suites with sea views, so you'll get plenty of space and amenities like sofas and furnished terraces. All use the same colors as the area's environment, including pops of blues and greens to represent the sea. For the ultimate perk, book a swim-up suite, meaning you can leave your room via the terrace and hop directly into the pool. Deluxe units feature two terraces and add a dining area. 

Other Highlights

You'll have your choice of two pools, one offering sea views and the other featuring a bar, hammocks, and sunbeds. You'll also find a small gym and massage menu at the hotel, a restaurant serving Mediterranean and Ibizan cuisine, and a dining area overlooking the coast. The hotel hosts live music in the evenings, and you can enjoy complimentary snacks, coffee, and tea in the lounge from 4:00 to 10:00 pm.
