Has anyone ever stayed at Es Vive? I will be staying there in July.

yes.
1. The vibe is unreal
2. The location is okay
3. The rooms are quite small
If in doubt then always refer back to point 1

Yes, a few times since 2014, including one of the suites before moving to the villa for my wedding.
Great place and if you want to do a bit of partying/chilling out afterwards but still feel a bit pampered, it's perfect for my needs. I'd recommend an upper, sea-view room though, ideally away from the Experience Club, although the rooms are sound-proofed and for Ibiza, it was pretty quiet.Stayed in quite a few different hotels over the years:
2002: Squash Apartments, PDB. Cheap and (sort of) cheerful.
2003: Jet, PDB. Struck gold and got an upper, sea-view room next to nice neighbours but the lack of AC at the time was grim. Think we slept on the balcony a couple of nights!
2004: Sirenis Jabeque, Figueretes. Lovely sea-view room and a big 1 bedroom apartment but this was before the refurb so the clientele was 'interesting'. I recall a fight broke out in the pool between Rotherham and Barsnsley fans. Whilst their kids watched on...
2005: Villa and then Sirenis Jabeque, Figueretes afterwards. Thankfully no pool fights this time!
2006: Jet, PDB. Drew the short straw and got one of the really nasty, noisy rooms near Bora Bora. We were either side of a big group of Italian blokes who kept banging on each others doors at all hours and shouted the intro to The White Stripes' 'Seven Nation Army' also at all hours (Italy had just won the World Cup and they wouldn't stop going on about it). Surprised I didn't kill someone. Good location for Space after-parties though!
2007: Simbad, Talamanca. Much more chilled and with a lovely sea-view. Bit of a walk to Ibiza Town though so recall spending a lot on taxis, especially back from Space & DC10.
2007: Nautico Ebeso, Figueretes. Returned in October to plan for our wedding (which we then postponed until 2015!). Had booked into the nearby Lux Mar but as soon as we walked in and saw our room which resembled an Eastern European prison cell from the 1970s, we cut our loses (which was around £100 for the week!) and booked into the Nautico Ebeso. Good thing it was out of season. Big room and lovely sea-view. Once again, this was before it was blinged up.
2009: Simbad, Talamanca
2014: Es Vive, Figueretes. After a long break from Ibiza, I decided to give the old girl a go again and booked into the Es Vive, Figueretes (as had a slightly bigger budget than in 2002!). The bedrooms aren't the biggest but they are fine for my needs. Very comfy, huge bed, big balcony and great service all around. The roof terrace is amazing and the Experience Bar/Club good fun. I don't think I'd stay anywhere else in Ibiza if I was going during the season, besides a villa if it was a special occasion or someone else was paying!
2015: Es Vive in May; Es Vive / Villa in August.
2016: Es Vive sold out so got an apartment in Talamanca. Definitely not the same as Es Vive so visited a couple of times to hang out by the pool and roof terrace.
2017: Back to Es Vive in May/June!

Even if I did have doubts I have already paid half the cost nonrefundable so I am going either way. I initially booked at Garbi but had second thoughts then switched.

You'll have a great time there.
Nice bottle of Rose around the pool in the afternoon
, some great music played there too with live DJs in the pm. Oh, and as stated by someone else, the inside bar is mad but really comes alive later on at night (very late)Just one point, ask for a room away from the stairwell or lift

Wow, I've obviously been missing out!
The cocktails at Es Vive make me weep tears of joy....although those turn into real tears as I check my credit card statement the following month.
