Tell us how it was - Ibiza 2025

[DelMarSunset]

Dates you were there: 17-22 July 2025

Where you stayed: Hotel Mim/Es Vive

Club nights visited: The Streets at Amnesia. Ocean Beach Fri, Sat, Sun and Monday.

Best night: Ocean Beach

Worst night: Amnesia. Too many lasers. The lights were blinding my eyes!

Best bar: Ocean Beach

Best place to eat: Ocean Beach

Best beach and/or beach club: Ocean Beach

Money spent: Not much. So many friendly men

Biggest regret: Bernadette got us both invited to a private party with Wayne L and I didn't go. I'd met a chap who looked just like my famous lover, and thought what the hell so went back to his place. His tastes were beyond what I am used to, even from my sinning days, and I will need to pray for forgiveness from Him. I'm sure a lovely cup of tea would with Wayne have been preferable and needed less penance. That said he clearly needs to put some signs up around his pool. Bernadette said she slipped over by it and can't sit down at all ever since. She had to inflate her life jacket on the plane and sit on it like a rubber ring. Scraped her elbows and knees in the fall too, the poor thing.

Going back?: Bernadette thinks her and Wayne may become an item, and apparently he said of course her twin sister can come and stay too! Isn't that so nice?!

Top tip: All the men in Ibiza are lovely. They'll even buy you drinks.

Observations and/or conclusion: Choose wisely. We didn't go to O Beach on Thursday or Tuesday, when looking back we should have!

This reminds me @Buckley .......... When are you going to bring your Beans character back?

Dates you were there: July 23-26

Where you stayed: Hostal La Torre. All very slick and it is gorgeous. If you are a repeat guest and you book before the end of Feb you can get up to 25% off. We only had 1 sunset there in the end and there was a pissed up nob playing "Ninetoes..Finder" on his phone at the business end of the sunset...took a lot of strength not to make a scene. Not 100% sure I'll return to stay...would maybe look for somewhere with a pool next time.

That's the sad thing..he was either posting a story or watching a story back...music deffo seemed quieter at La Torre as well...not sure if that's at all linked to the sa trinxa/benirras stuff etc

I had a drink it what was Orange Corner/Kiwi Bar the Saturday night - not sure what they are trying to do with, but looks awful

I was there 2 weeks ago and it took for ever to get served despite being lots of staff and about 4 people in there.

Chinois - Trip, Honey Dijon, Claptone, my new fav club on the island, very underrated. Great sound system, great line ups, nice crowd, people there to dance and party not take photos, give it try.

Las Dallias - Hernan Cattanio, another underrated club, mainly locals and Europeans, fun hippy vibes. It’s a mission to get there but worth the effort if you want to try something different.

Are they enforcing the dress code at Chinois? ie are men getting in wearing shorts?

I've been to a few Saga events so far and wearing shorts have been fine providing they are not swimming or sports ones.

Second time this year and a lot earlier than originally planned so was very much an 'Ibiza on a budget' trip.

Dates you were there: 1st to 5th August

Where you stayed: Vibra Central City. Wasn't expecting a lot at all but the room was nice and big and had a kitchenette . Couple of ants roaming about the floor every now and again so probably not for everyone but stayed in far worse Pool area was a decent enough size and nobody seemed bothered about bringing your own drink down there.

Club nights visited: Music On, Glitterbox

Best night: Glitterbox. We were debating for ages before we went whether to go to Amnesia or UNVRS but ended up bumping into a mate by chance and him and his girlfriend were off to Glitterbox so we just ended up going there. Hadn't even looked who was on but Floorplan were mint.

Worst night: Neither, really enjoyed both

Best bar: Sat in Golden Buddha for a good few hours one of the days which was nice.

Best place to eat: Did it on a budget so didn't eat out too much, couple of quick meals on some of them along the front in San An. Did have a spur of the moment steak in O Beach which was decent although it came with literally 3 cherry tomatoes and this 2cm x 2cm potato square thing so didn't keep me full for long.

Best beach and/or beach club: Only went to O Beach really.

Money spent: Around £630 for flights and hotel (which was extortionate compared to when we went in May but to be expected I suppose) and then probably around £400 on tickets/food/taxis.

Biggest regret: Would have liked to have stayed longer for Music On. Overdid it far too much early doors

Going back?: Definitely. Always has to be quite a last minute decision as we've got an arsehole of a dachshund (he's not all bad but he's very temperamental around other people/dogs/anything and everything ) that we struggle to find anyone to look after so we can only really go when my girlfriend's Dad is free and can look after him. Hopefully end of September/early October

Top tip: Book tickets online and add the drinks package if going to Pacha. Absolute no-brainer

Observations and/or conclusion: Definitely more enjoyable if you can do it properly but would still encourage people to go even if they're on a budget. Balcony pre-drinks, cheap food or supermarket supplies, buses instead of taxis etc..

Dates you were there:
August 1-6 2025

Where you stayed:
3 nights Ushuaia hotel, 3 nights Torre del Mar

Club nights visited:
- Kalvin Harris at Ushuaia
It's a press play show. Can imagine if you are a fan you can enjoy it

- Woomoon at Cova Santa
Outside amazing. Inside, music great. Lot's of guy's trying their luck in the inside part

- Ants at Ushuaia
Always great atmosphere, the only party I really like at Ushuaia

- Elrow at UNVRS
The later the evening, the more drunk pushy people. We have a feeling this had to do with the crowd Hugel pulls

- Kygo at Ushuaia
If you are a fan, go see this. Lot's of live singers and in general great atmosphere. It only starts going just before Kygo get's on stage however

- Bedouin at Club Chinois
First time Bedouin and Chinois and what a night it was, fantastic!

- Circoloco at DC10
Crowded, stayed near the backstage door. Music was great, people in general were nice and here the girl's were trying there luck and I got a spank on my butt from a man. What more do I want?

- Resistance at Amnesia
Terrace was empty until halfway Joris Voorn his set and never reached more than 80% capacity throughout the night. The balcony we were on literally had around 20-30 people at any given time. Nice room to dance and atmosphere was great. Hurts however to see Amnesia like this

- Ibiza Anthems at Ibiza Rocks
Since we had a late flight back and never been here we decided to get a day life pass which gave access to some beds, which we managed to score after some waiting. Prices are great for Ibiza and overall this was a nice surprise and nice way to end the trip. It was not busy however. I don't know if it's always like this or because of the recent news. Vibe was still there though

Best night:
- Bedouin at Club Chinois was a fantastic surprise!

Worst night:
- Elrow at UNVRS. Too many drunk pushy people crammed together

Best bar:
- Almost ashamed to say, but this trip it must have been Ibiza Rocks . Great atmosphere, everybody very friendly. Coco's bar and kitchen in the old town was nice as well.

Best place to eat:
- During this trip it was Hell's Kitchen. But overpriced for what it was

Best beach and/or beach club:
- Torre del Mar

Money spent:
- Too much...

Biggest regret:
- None

Going back?:
- Probably next year. We always say to skip next year, always end up going back

Top tip:
- Do not miss out on Bedouin at Club Chinois. I booked a suite in the Ushuaia beach hotel. I could get a "cheap" upgrade to a stage view suite for 3 nights which made it worth it to experience it once. Would never pay the going rate for that room. You can try to "game" the system and see if you get a similar "offer" as well and get a great discount

Observations and/or conclusion:
- First 3 nights in Ushuaia and then the more relaxed Torre del Mar was a great combination. DC10 was busy as you would expect but most of the crowd was very friendly. Kalvin Harris and Kygo were better than expected, I have to admit , would never pay the general entrance for those parties however. Woomoon at Cova Santa outside part was great, inside part not so much, next time we will just do dinner there, enjoy outside and go somewhere else.

Bedouin already was a banger at Heart. Not a surprise , that you enjoyed it. It went bigger and bigger and suddenly it was a pacha event.
