Just Tell us how it was - Summer Season 2004

Dates you were there: 24th July - 5th August

Where you stayed (resort/hotel): First 6 nights Villa Maria, San Rafel. Last 5 nights Sol Bahia Apartments, San Antonio.

Club nights visited: Release Yourself @ Pacha, Miss Moneypennys @ El Divino, Carry On with Barbara Tucker @ Space, Defected @ El Divino, DefMix @ Pacha.

Best Night: Defected; amazing music and atmosphere.

Worst Night: Moneypennys; rubbish music and NO atmosphere!

Best Bar: Coastline; cool, stylish, friendly service, great views and pretty decent music. Great for sunbathing during the day too.

Best Place to Eat: Sa Capella; wonderful food, service and surroundings. Perfect for a romantic special night out.

Money Spent: Not checked yet, but somewhere around the £2000 mark for 2 of us.

Biggest Regret: Not booking parasailing in time before flying home, and not making it to Space when the roof terrace was open.

Going Back?: Should be over for a long weekend during September!!

Top Tip: Hook your bag under a chair leg/sunbed leg when you're out and about - I got deliberately distracted by a black French guy whose friend stole my bag in the terrace at Kanya. Lost expensive camera and 10 days worth of photos plus other stuff. Tip Number 2: If you go to the Gaurdia Civil (like I did, to get a report for insurance purproses), take a Spanish speaker as they speak no English whatsoever at the station. The guy who worked behind the bar at Sol Bahia Apartments took me and without him things would have been impossible.

I'd firstly like to say how sorry I am that not everyone had such a good time in Ibiza. There are some sad stories on here which is a huge shame.

I was an Ibiza virgin... and half anticipated spending 4 days sitting on the side lines watching some thing like Ibiza Uncovered. How wrong I was! I was swept up into the very heart of this spiritual and fun Island.

Es Paradise on Saturday was amazing... Was the first person in there and got a very comfy seat, sprawled on 5 huge cushions inbetween the pillars around the dance floor... lay there for hours until the dance floor started to fill with water at around 5 and a member of staff timidly took my cushions from me one by one... I was close to tears, lol! Before this I met 2 smashing beautiful belgium boys with whom I played a rather scrumptious game of pass the ice cube via kissing. It was an experience I will hold in my heart forever, significant to the closure of my single life.

Sunday I was lying in bed having had about 6 hours rest... I couldn't sleep cos the air con was on and the noise kept turning into music. Unfortunately I didn't realise I could get my ass out of bed and turn it off! Ooops! So at about 2pm I'm thinking... I can either stay in bed (after all I'm on holiday), go lie by the pool and rest further, or I can go to Bora Bora. Needless to say the latter won, so I jumped in the shower and headed off there with nowt more than a bikini, sarong, sandles, sunglasses, summit to smoke and about 20 euros.

What can I say about Bora Bora??? As soon as I walked round the corner from the side street I felt such an amazing energy rush. I bought a drink, noticed a very good looking guy at the bar, and dismissed him just as quickly, and went to join the vibe. Danced for a while, soaking up the amosphere, then went for a wander round the bar. Having noticed a space to sit down on a table at the front of the bar (next to the dishy fella!) I plonked me bum down and continued to feel the vibe. Shortly after said dishy fella asks "You ok sweetheart" and that was that. We spent the following 3 days together.

Words cannot describe how beautiful my experience of Ibiza was. I truly felt at home and believe Ibiza to be a very spiritual place. I have found the missing piece to my jigsaw and more. I will be going back there without a shadow of a doubt hopefully sooner rather than later.

I hope there are others out there who have enjoyed their Ibizan experience as much as I have.
