just got back
Just got back yesterday from week in ibiza with the girlfriend. Stayed at the Marco Polo which was next to the 'egg' Just a few bits of info on prices and other bis etc from when i was there.

Drinks - most places in west end 5 euros for pint of vodka redbull along with some cheap and nasty drinks - u basically get a free shot everywhere after the annoying pr's get hold of u. A bottle of bud in amnesia (cream) was 12 euros! a cheap ten pound or so!

Bus to ibiza town was 1.70 euros

Ferry to the amazing beach of cala bassa was 9 euros

did a good snorkelling trip for 18 euros

most food places in san antonio are similar and up to say 10 euros for decent main course although there are some more upmarjet restaurants around.

Clubs - best night for me was clubland at es paradise with n trance and live performance of 'set u free' by the girl from it. The actual club decor etc is nothing like u will ever see.

Cream at amnesia was pretty special although the main room is heaaving and to move around is bit tricky. Not being a drug person to be offered pills by four different english people in cream with first two minutes of arriving was an eye opener.
We turned up at bar m for the the free bus at 12am but were told we may be able to get on one at '2.30am'. we got taxi instead from san antono which was only 15 euros.

was a bit dissapointed with cafe del mar - think its built up more than it shoul;d be. there were three bars a bit further up called kanya-coastline and savanna or something like that - they looked amazing compared to del mar. i guess del mar has such a reputauion that everybody goes there. i cant fault the sunset and the atmosphere though.

Ibiza town was a good day/evening out with some good bars etc and all the trannys on stilts!

best bar/pub went to in west end is breezes bar - they have no pr's and do a drink called dead mans walking which comes in a big tub! 40 euros or so

overall ibiza is an amazing place and i dont think its as hardcore as it has a reputaion for. the clubs are like clubs u will never see before and need to be done. the west end is full of cheap bars and pubs and a few smaller clubs. a good idea to go there before clubs if u r not up for £10 a beer in cream!

hope these details may be of use to somebody

That's not bad 12 euro for a drink in Amnesia! :lol:

Was that 9 euro one way or return to cala bassa? I wanna go this year...

Cafe Del Mar is a bit of an anticlimax the first time most people go to Ibiza.. especially after years of hearing that Energy 52 song and then you get there and it's full of pensioners haha
My personal faves are Mambo and Kanya.

That happened to us when we went last year, we waited until about 1 and then got a cab. It was dfferent to the year before when at least 2 buses came along.
 
Great Review

I loved your review! I now have an idea of what it costs to go Amnesia from San Antonio. Was the total price of your cab ride 15 euro or was it person?- hopefully not

Are the sunset cafes within walking distance from the egg? Thanx!:p

sunset cafes are a 10 minute stroll away, apart from kanya and the others at that end. everything's fairly close by, though.
 
I know what you mean bout the free buses to Amnesia! i went Manumission and got in queue for an hour but we were all drinkin and so werent too bad, good time to make friends too! we never waited for bus back, cabs available outside.
where you said about amnesia being rammed-was the same in Manumission, i felt very faint as couldnt move. water=8 euro, i stuck to that.

I also got bus to Privledge, Tiesto, strongly recommend this night. loved it... 10euro=water, smirnoff ice= 8euro?? not as hot in here as its massive!! amazing atmosphere! hide yr cameras though as they try stopping you get in!

I only got back wednesday, was there 16nights in Casa Maria! love Ibiza!, 2nd time ive been this year! end of season far better than beggining! very expensive though isnt it?
My personal favourite places to go to in west end were Mr Toffs, That bar, Hogans, Studio 22, Hush, Tropicana and PLAY 2!!

I wanna be back there!
oh best boat party=garlands!
Hope helps anyone never been xx
