Immerse yourself in an unforgettable journey with Puro Dreams, your perfect companion for high-end, short-term rentals in Ibiza.

Welcome to Ibiza, a mystical island shimmering like a jewel in the Mediterranean. More than its vibrant parties and golden sandy beaches, Ibiza symbolizes an emblematic and coveted destination worldwide. This gem unfurls an unparalleled and sophisticated experience, offering everything a luxury traveler could desire – from gorgeous villas and gourmet restaurants to private yachts and exclusive fashion boutiques.

History and Culture

The soul of Ibiza, or Eivissa in Catalan, is steeped in its rich history. It inherits its name from its Latin variant Ebusia, bequeathed by the Romans. The cultural influences of the Carthaginians, Romans, and Greeks still resonate across the island, which was once part of the Pine Islands, named after its abundance of pine trees. The intriguing past of Ibiza is etched into its architecture, notably the numerous churches built around the 17th and 18th centuries. Every village, taking the name of the saint to whom the local church was dedicated, contributes uniquely to the community’s character.

Etymology

The word Ibiza is the name of one of the most famous islands in the Balearic archipelago located in Spain off the Mediterranean coasts. The small island stands out for the beauty of its coves, its landscapes, and the transparency of its marine waters. The name Ibiza, in Catalan Eivissa, comes from the Latin variant Ebusia (testified since the poet Statius in the 1st century AD), from the name given to it by the Romans Ebusus, which is a Latinization of its Phoenician name, because the island before passing to the Roman world in the 2nd century BC, was an important Carthaginian enclave, and was Ībošim, of dubious etymology, perhaps related to the name of the god Bes who was the most worshipped in the islands. The Greeks also knew the archipelago in which two groups of islands are really distinguished, which the Greeks considered two archipelagos. One group is formed by the two largest islands, Mallorca and Menorca, together with the small island of Cabrera. Another group of almost together islands is formed by Ibiza, Formentera, and some smaller islets. The Greeks called them Πιτυόεσσαι (Pityoessai, Pine Islands), a name that means “abundant in pines”, “place of pines”.

Historical Exploration

For first-time visitors, a tour of the historic center, established in 654 AD, is highly recommended. This stunning city, once a stopover for pirates, Romans, Muslims, and Vandals, has stories to tell. Ibiza, divided into five municipalities, each houses picturesque villages like Santa Agnés de Corona and Es Cubells, and landmarks such as Dalt Vila and Can Soleil. Each corner of Ibiza narrates a piece of its rich history.

Unearth Ibiza’s Cultural Treasures

Take a break from the modern glitz and glamor of Ibiza and step back in time as you explore Dalt Vila, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This historic town is like an open museum, offering a glimpse into Ibiza’s rich historical heritage that spans the Phoenician, Roman, and Arab eras.

Ibiza luxury lifestyle

Ibiza is a haven for those with an appetite for luxury and thrill. It isn’t just a party hub; it’s a place where lavish living meets with natural allure. Indulge yourself in upscale shopping at Marina Botafoch’s high-end boutiques, including renowned brands like Dolce & Gabbana and Gucci. Savor the glitz of the fashion world as you browse through the finest collections these boutiques have to offer.

Adlib Ibiza

The Adlib fashion style, synonymous with Ibiza, reflects the island’s free-spirited, bohemian lifestyle. Born in the 1970s, Adlib—derived from the Latin phrase “ad libitum,” meaning “as you like”—celebrates natural fabrics, flowing designs, and predominantly white attire, influenced by traditional island wear. This comfortable, relaxed style has gained global traction, partly due to the annual Pasarela Adlib fashion show, a key event showcasing Adlib-inspired designs. Ibiza’s vibrant festivals further endorse this trend, with attendees’ boho-chic outfits drawing attention. The Adlib movement also embraces sustainable fashion, underscoring Ibiza’s fusion of tradition, freedom, and environmental consciousness.

Ibiza Beaches and day trips

Ibiza is a jewel in the Mediterranean, renowned for its white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, and vibrant nightlife. Yet, there’s so much more to this island paradise than meets the eye.

Formentera

Discovering Formentera is something nobody should miss on a trip to Ibiza. Take your time to explore the natural beauty of the island: its beaches, its villages, and its cultural jewels. Enjoy a relaxing swim and go snorkeling at Illetas beach in Formentera. With crystal clear and turquoise waters, Espalmador, Ses Illetes, and Levante offer a boho chic island experience in the Mediterranean.

Es Vedrá, magic and energy on the island

One of the favorite places in Ibiza, both for locals and tourists, is curiously outside of Ibiza: the islet of Es Vedrà.

This huge rock pyramid is located southwest of the island, in front of Cala d’Hort, in the municipality of Sant Josep de Sa Talaia. Due to its high ecological value, it has been protected as a nature reserve since 2002 in the Parc de Cala d´Hort i Es Vedrà, made up of the islets of Es Vedrà, Es Vedranell, and the Es Illots de Ponent.

Its unique shape and colossal size of 382 meters above sea level make Es Vedrà easily visible and recognizable from many points of Ibiza, Formentera, and even from the Iberian Peninsula. In recent decades, dozens of myths and legends have been written about this islet, which is said to have “magical properties for energy accumulation”.

Es Vedrà is considered a magical place.

It is said that its powerful energy envelops the island of Ibiza and is the cause of strange phenomena such as the disorientation of homing pigeons when flying over Es Vedrà.

Beaches and coves in Ibiza

Enjoy the best paradises of the Mediterranean coast. The island of Ibiza has countless coves and beaches where you can let yourself be rocked by the waves, relax under the sun and be touched by the breeze. Our eight dream scenarios reveal what to do in Ibiza if you like beach tourism.

Cala Salada

Cala Salada, surrounded by a lush green environment, is one of the most popular beaches among locals and tourists thanks to its crystal clear turquoise waters, its almost intact Mediterranean landscape, and its fine golden sand.

Cala Comte

With its fine pearl-colored sand and intense turquoise waters, Cala Comte is one of the best in Ibiza. It is a unique dining and swimming destination located south of San José. Also, you can see small islets like Es Bosc, Sa Conillera, Ses Bledes, and S’Esparta.

Cala Tarida

Cala Tarida has a long and wide beach of excellent fine white sand in the small tourist town of Cala Tarida. Under its clean and crystal clear waters, there is a sandy seabed. The sea here is a vivid turquoise blue and emerald green.

Cala D’hort

Few coves in Ibiza are as beautiful and serene as Cala D’hort. A small and charming beach, Cala d’Hort also offers a view of the mysterious islet of Es Vedrà. It is a great beach for surfing on windy days when the larger waves crash against the shore.

Ses Salines Beach

Long and with fine sand, the Salinas Beach is surrounded by warm turquoise waters that barely reach a few centimeters from the coast. Its name is due to the large extension of land in the south of the island where the sea is let in to evaporate and gain salt. Next to the beach, the only train tracks on the island, which were used in the past to transport it, are still visible.

Aguas Blancas

The beach is located in the northwest of Ibiza. It is a long and wide beach, with cliffs that protect it from the east wind, giving it a wild look. Despite its inhospitable aspect, it is a special place with a very special charm. From there you can see Tagomago.

Cala Xarraca

With its transparent waters, Cala Xarraca is an ideal destination for snorkeling or diving and taking unforgettable photos. With a length of 90 meters and a width of 15 meters, it is one of the most isolated coves in Ibiza and has incomparable views. The area is surrounded by lush pine forests, with whitewashed houses scattered around, and has steep cliffs around it.

Cala Nova

Beautiful sandy area with turquoise waters, surrounded by pines, and with a quiet and relaxed atmosphere in Santa Eulalia. One of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast of Ibiza. Its shallow waters and the golden sand that goes into the sea are a blessing. The Ibizan beach of Cala Nova has some of the best conditions for surfing on the island when there is the right wind.
