A 2015 guide to Ibiza

Summer is coming and Ibiza is gearing up for a new season. Anticipation is in the air, but where are the places to go and be seen? Sweaty, busy residences where people stands on your Choos are out the window and Ibiza, a place to party 24 hours, is showing a new light. Now, the destination is popular for pop up fitness weeks, raw food restaurants, holistic weekends and chic villas for the in-crowd to hold their own party. Invite some cool friends and maybe even a celebrity DJ! Get your flights booked and head out to the white sands, turquoise waters and hidden beauty of Ibiza. The superclub crowd has been over shadowed by the party goers from St Tropez, the super yacht owner’s on the harbour showing how the cash is splashed on the Riviera. Find my inspired Ibizan guide for 2015 here: Cirque du Soleil & The Adria brothers present HEART Rumour has it that HEART is the no. 1 experience in Ibiza for 2015! After 10 years of collaborating and letting others share the concept, Albert and Ferran Adrià and Guy Laliberté, founder of Cirque du Soleil, present HEART! HEART Ibiza will offer three different experiences within Ibiza Gran Hotel, a fusion of art, gastronomy and music. Mix together the hip street food markets, the coolest vibes, DJ’s and art and you have HEART. An eclectic vibe vibrating chic undertones and bringing the new ‘cool’ to Ibiza. Get fit with Olivia Cooney Find her in London training the elite, Olivia is the one who sculpts, let’s face it, those beautiful figures we all want to have. But forget London, you can now nip over to Ibiza for one of her pop up fitness retreats. Olivia combines fitness, fashion, culture and beautiful accommodation in San Antonio, but there are limited places so don’t hang around. I love that itineraries are designed to include lunches and dinners in Ibiza’s favourite restaurants. Finally, a retreat which allows us to eat delicious food whilst looking good! Not to mention the partnership with top fashion houses which allow you to browse the autumn / winter collection before it hits the stores. Rent a private Ibizan Islet – Tagomago Island Lay low in the luxury of your own private island, only 900 meters from Ibiza.  This getaway is for a select clientele who prefer privacy and luxury over being seen in every beach club along Ibiza’s white sands. Should you wish to pop over to HEART to browse the new art collection and take a drink with the Adria brothers (because they are bound to be within the realms of your social circle) then you can whistle your helicopter and depart from the private heliport. Tagomago Island offers trendy and sophisticated accommodation to sleep 10 people, with interiors designed by Danilo Silvestrin and a 145sqm swimming pool, gym, Jacuzzi, beach grill (for your private chef) and panoramic sea views of Ibiza! Gat a healthy takeout at Picadeli We are not all fortunate to have a private chef rolling sushi in our outdoor kitchen. The next best thing? A takeout from Picadeli. Pick up a wholesome supper, raw juice or super salad and sit on the beach watching the waves roll in and out and the sun sparkle in its reflection.  Take your street food to the beach for a picnic and revel in the goodness. Follow Picadeli on Facebook and ask for their latest recipes. Ibiza is not all late nights and fuzzy heads, jump on the new health kick trend of the island!! Get decoded with 38 degrees North Pushing the boundaries yet again, Ibiza is heading the health trend. Visit 38 degrees North and get your DNA decoded so that your diet and fitness regime can be tailored to your DNA profile. 38 degrees North offers retreats to reconnect with our bodies whilst working with a team of professional mind and body experts. Host your own party on Jems Jems is a 44 metre yacht which sleeps 10 guests with 8 crew members who will look after all your needs. Prices start from a very modest €160,000 per week. For this you do get to relax in the outdoor Jacuzzi whilst watching the latest blockbuster movie projected on a large screen. If this isn’t enough, hop on your jet ski and ride the waves and coves of Ibiza, host a BBQ or even an after party for your favourite resident DJ. How about a pop up restaurant on your private deck? The possibilities are endless with the wide array of tenders and toys to make your cruise the most memorable. If you don’t want to hide away on Tagomago Island, then this would be my top accommodation recommendation… you can even practise your skiing technique for when back on the slopes of Courchevel 1850 with the adult slalom ski or training skis on board!
