Honeymoons are different for each couple. Some may prefer to be isolated from the rest of the world, never going out during their stay in which case a room in any hotel, resort or bed and breakfast would be good.
On the other hand, there are those who want their honeymoon to be very much a celebration of life. They want to party from sunset to sunrise and laze on the beach during the day. If this sounds like you, Ibiza is the place for you to go.
Ibiza is an island in the Mediterranean. If your idea of a Spanish island is that of a sleepy town then Ibiza will surprise you. It is best known as a party place where the parties run til the morning comes. You can dance the night away together at some of the best clubs in the world.
After partying all night, you will probably want to just rest and spend some time together. You can just hang out in your room or you can laze on the beach and soak up some sun. The weather in Ibiza is warm which is very relaxing. If you prefer to stay away from the salt water, most good hotels and resorts have pools for your use.
Where you stay in Ibiza will depend on your preference in activities. If you are looking for a peaceful honeymoon walking along together and enjoying the beach, San Eulalia is the best place for you to stay in. This is the perfect area for those who really do just want to each other’s company. As a bonus, you’ll have the advantage of being in the center of gastronomy and culture in Ibiza.
If you want to be near the best clubs, you’ll want to stay in Playa D’en Bossa. This is where the superclub space is located, as well as the Borabora bar.
You definitely won’t get bored in Ibiza. There are all sorts of water sports to suit your need for thrills. You can go jet skiing, water skiing, parasailing, wind surfing and even sailing on a catamaran.
If you’d rather get away from the water and keep your feet dry, why not explore the islands historical treasure located right in the middle of the island. D’Alt Vila is a UNESCO world heritage site and it is no ghost town or ruins. It is in fact the oldest part of the island with a thriving community within its walls. It’s a bit of a hike but it is worth it. You must make time to have dinner here under the stars. After all it isn’t everyday that one gets to eat dinner in a medieval castle.
Don’t forget that you are not limited to staying in a hotel. There are many great hostels, bed and breakfast, resorts and villas just waiting for you to decide to call them home for a while. An apartment or villa may in fact be perfect so that the two of you can practice being alone together all the time - not a bad thing at all during a honeymoon.
