Tell us how it was - Ibiza 2013

Dates you were there: 21.09 - 01.10.2013

Where you stayed (resort/hotel):a villa near Cala Moli

Club nights visited: We Love @ Space / Circoloco (X2) / La Troya Closing @ Amnesia / tINI & the Gang @ Sirocco beach / Flying Circus @ Sankeys / Ants Closing @ Ushuaia / Cocoon Closing @amnesia / Mister Anfora @ Anfora (!)

Best night: It's a tie: La Troya Closing (you can't find that kind ofatmosphere anywhere else) / Circoloco (forever... even if it was a bit less loco than usual) / Ants Closing (despite the fact that some bastard stole my wallet)... and I really enjoyed the Innervision showcase @ We Love (the rest was so so)

Worst night: Ironically all the parties where we had to pay to get in: Sankeys was awful (atmosphere, crowd, decor, soundsystem... not Ibiza at all) , Cocoon Closing was disappointing (compared to all the Cocoon closings I've attended over the years - definitely lacking the vibe and the show you expect from a closing party)... and I don't even want to talk about Anfora (how come there's not a decent gay club in Ibiza????)

Best bar: Experimental Beach at Cap d'Es Falco but only for the location and the sunset (forget about the terrible and overpriced cocktails: watery Mojitos, Where's the Gin?/Tonic...)

Best place to eat: Fish Shack - El Chiringuito (Es Cavallet) - El Chiringuito (Cala Gracioneta) - Can Domingo

Money spent:I still don't know and don't want to know.

Biggest regret: Missing ENTER closing

Going back?: ASAP

Top tip: If you are a group rent a boat for a day trip to Formentera. Visit the small villages in the northern part of the island. Avoid the hippy market (Las Dalias is ok but Es Cana is a nightmare). Drink before going to Amnesia, the prices are simply scandalous.

BTW I'm not a new member!
 
Dates you were there: 15-23rd July

Where you stayed (resort/hotel): Hotel Costa Sol, Calo

Club nights visited: ASOT Privilege, Cream Amnesia, Avicii @ Ushuaia

Best night: ASOT Privilege, AVB was outstanding, met so many people. Hell of a rush, 1st time to Ibiza... landed at 12:15am got a taxi to Pica Pica in Ibiza town to drop bags off and then straight over to Privilege. Couldn't have wished for anything better, Cosmic Gate, W&W... the whole experience was what I had hoped for, hadn't quite sunk in until a few days later. Within an hour of landing I was bouncing away with a huge grin on my face.

Worst night: San Antonio west end, Horrendous night, African women trying to scam you with hair bracelets, lucky lucky men trying to sell you any old tat. Rammed in the middle at the crossroads. Drinks a bit pricey, saw a few 18-30's parties looking a bit miffed and the bar reps literally begging you to go in to some places. But it's Ibiza I guess.

Best bar: Didnt really bother doing too many bars, but the ones I went to were close by my hotel.

Best place to eat: Jockey Club, Salinas

Money spent: 2500

Biggest regret: Not spending enough time exploring the island.

Going back?: July 16-26 2014

Top tip: Keep your money well hidden and secure.
