We're staying at The blue apartments which are literally the other side of the road and considering it's full on budget level the pictures look much nicer than the standard Ibiza 70s style rooms which i'm used to ?

Sounds good to me?, our reception is manned at the red hotel so hopefully no issues with any guests coming to our room..
I'm more than happy to slum it in Ibiza anyway, I've stayed in Pikey park with only 1 plug socket in the bathroom so anything is an improvement

Ive not stayed at the Wikiwoo either, but did when it was the Costamar (which was awful, it isnt missed!) and the issue is without knocking the whole 70s design down and starting again they can't avoid the smaller rooms or rooms not having the best views and yeh that pool is small.
It is in mt favourite bit of San An though, love Golden Buddah and a short walk to Cala Gracio.

Fine flavours draw on Ibiza culinary Origens at ME Ibiza Hotel | Ibiza Spotlight
"21st Century traditional cooking" prepared by top local Ibiza chef.www.ibiza-spotlight.com
One week ago the first exclusive gastronomic pop up event Origens took place at the rooftop terrace of ME Ibiza in S'Argamassa. The ibicenco chef José Miguel Bonet of Es Ventall fame won over diners with a menu made up of nine dishes and his traditional cuisine of the 21st century concept, that bridges traditional Ibizan food with a cutting-edge and modern approach. The croquette of ibizan shrimp and black garlic was one of the highlights. An explosion of flavors, with Dj Oliver providing the soundtrack, that will happen again on august 7th.

Another half decent family hotel bites the dust, a great shame....
I've not been, but I live right opposite. Aside from the fact they made a lot of mess for the first month of summer and they haven't nearly enough parking spaces, it really does look the part. Seems to be busy too. They often have live jazz singers up on the roof. Sunset must look great from up there. My parents are staying there in October, so I'm gonna have a proper nosy around then - probably not much help to you that late.
I'll post feedback here if I manage to get in before that.

I stayed for two weeks June 2018 before the change, however, I think about 3/4 of the rooms had already been converted.
There was hardly any storage space, a tiny 'wardrobe' with a bit of curtain on a rail that kept falling down and some glass shelving.
I was lucky to get a proper bathroom with a large walk in shower, (think it may have been meant for disabled access). Some rooms I saw had the shower in the middle of the room next to the beds! That's what I didn't like about it. I will say the beds were fantastic though, also a good tv.
Is this some attempt of a quirky avant-garde feature or is it just bizarre piece of planning?

No idea, but seems to be a bit of a trend. In those rooms the loo was behind a partition.

nice one thanks - going in Aug so will post a review after that
Just arrived back home after 10 days there. Very enjoyable and good location Wiki Woo next door was a bit of a cringe though - nice enough but very young and lots of poses and pouts being thrown) ?
Would recommend Portinatx. Not that much more expensive in a taxi really when comes down to it.

portinatx is surely much nicer and way more chilled out then most places in the south and san an, but in our case the 22 y.o. daughter comes with us and she likes to spend almost every day at O Beach. i am not prepaired to pay for that as we stay 14 days

We were just coming up to our cancellation period ending with our hotel and as it was booked through booking.com, we checked the prices online and we've found the same one 200 Euro cheaper direct with the hotel. Hopefully they don't overbook and then turn guests away as i was turned away from my hotel last year so i don't want that happening again ?
