Petunia

With its striking rural location facing the Es Vedrà islet, Petunia gives its guests the chance to relax and rewind around the pool, in the lush gardens and around the nearby calas. The island of Ibiza became bohemian and internationally renowned in the 1970s, and the decor of this hotel reflects that, with its neutral stone walls, plush furnishings and pops of colour. It’s a far cry from the clubbing and chocka-block beaches you’re used to seeing. Rather, this is somewhere you’d come after a heavy night to detox with a cocktail by the pool, listen to some mellow tunes, and maybe take a dip if things get a little too warm. And after a long day of lounging? There’s the onsite restaurant which overlooks the coast, decorated by a rather striking sunset if you’re lucky. 

Neighbourhood

You’ll find Petunia in Cala Carbó, a rural coastal town on the eastern side of the island. There’s a nearby local beach of Cala Vedella, which is a local beach peppered with restaurants and a couple of tourist shops. If you want to get more familiar with Ibiza’s ‘other side’, let the hotel team know how many kayaks or paddleboards you need. 

Nearby

• Book a guided hike with breathtaking landscapes, hidden coves and the occasional swimming spot for 20€ per person. 
• Cala D’Hort is a nearby pebbled beach that requires a bit of a hike to get to. But that’s part of the fun! Pack a backpack and wander along hilly pathways overlooking the coast before stopping at the beauty spot. 
• Cafe Del Mar is a legendary Ibiza spot for late-night partying (to the soundtrack of Balearic classics, no less) which is worth the taxi trip. 

Time Out tip

Petunia is a great spot for recharging after a heavy couple of nights in Ibiza, it’s pure relaxation through and through – away from the temptations of partying. It’s also perfect for couples, families or older guests who want to enjoy the warm climes and picturesque scenery of Ibiza.
