Ibiza really needs to sort out prices if they want tourist, people can't afford to spend much to go and spend as before
Question of point of view...
You think it's pricey for two people AND a car, but I can come with a lot of food, wine, etc... And I don't have to rent a car(and this f***ing deposit they ask), and like I always stay more than 10 days when I come, it's not a lot more expensive for me than by plane.
I don't have to support all the stupid controls in airports, i don't have to pay a prohibited parking in my local airport, I'm not stressed about the car, and I like the idea that my trip is better for my planet than by plane.
I don't spend money in Clubs tickets (guest list or I don't go), which help a lot to save money in ibiza ?
Ibiza is pricey if you want it to be pricey.
You and I have a total different way of living ibiza.
You stay 4 days and spend a lot in clubs.
I stay weeks and spend almost nothing in clubs.
You also have the chance to live in Madrid and can have direct flights all year round at a reasonable price.
I just have direct flights in July and August from my town, wich are two months I generally never come to ibiza.
So if I want to come by plane in September or June, I have to do LYON-BCN-IBZ, and it's as expensive (around 500€ for 2 ppl) as by ferry.
And this feeling when you arrive by boat at 6am, with the sunrise on the Portlnatx lighthouse is priceless for me...
