excellent place, don't know about how warm it is going to be when you are there because they don't have ac in the rooms. other than that, a brilliant place. handy for ibiza town and most of the better beaches. the new m'way construction is casing a few problems with the salinas bus routes as the bus stops have been moved.
Martin who runs the snack bar will make you a REAL paella if you give him 1 days notice - he gets the fish etc fresh from the market in the morning. his sangria is great too. some people complain about meals taking a long time to arrive - that is because everything is cooked individually. decide what you want to eat and order it early. that way you can have a relaxing drink before eating.
the apartments are kept very clean, the cleaners are always about during the day and will help with anything you need. the staff at the reception are very helpful too.
try a day trip to formentera, the boats go from the jetty between pdb and figeuretas.
we ate at Paloma restaurant opposite aparthotel Garbi - next to pizza hut/kfc. cheap and friendly with english speaking staff - if you want to pick and choose from their menu it's no problema!
have fun.

was there in may. we had a studio but Martin reckoned they still hadn't got ac in the apartments. we had a ceiling fan which was adequate because it wasn't too hot. most of the apartments faced away from the afternoon sun and those that don't have awnings to keep the sun off.
i don't know if it helps but about 70% of the people who we met at the apartments were repeat visitors. we've been 5 times and one family we were talking to had been about 10 times - that's a good enough endorsement for me!

I went last summer and they do have celing fans which worked ok, but u could only have them on when u were in, so a bit hot when u come back in.
It in a good location, not to far from space and the water park, and just round the corrner from bars and restarants without being noisey.
poolis a bit small but only five mins walk to the beach.
got to try the cocktails in the bar, they are ace!!!
I stayed there about 4 years ago.
They're standard apartments, no different to Jet in size, though maybe a few years older. The blocks a bit more compact though, and there obviously isn't the size of the Jet metropolis.
No aircon I'm afraid though
They're much further away from the PDB strip, down the road Kiss Somny is on, though about another 50 yards inland.
As I said, stannard stuff. We got them on a allocation on arrival set up, and weren't too displeased. I assume they're quite cheap?
Tip, when you do get a cab, just tell the driver to drop you off at Kiss. None of them knew the apartments, and in any case there's a one way road which makes navigation by car a bit dodgy.
