Villa Candileja is situated in the north of the island, very close to the gorgeous village of Sant Juan, otherwise known as Sant Joan de Labritja. It is 23km north of Ibiza Town, so no distance at all. The village comes alive in June for the famous Fiesta de Sant Joan. The countryside around Villa Candileja is beautiful, and there are stunning views of the sea from the villa. It offers good access to some gorgeous sandy beaches and secluded coves.
Portinatx is a wonderful family-friendly resort. It is the most northerly point of Ibiza and boasts three lovely beaches and a selection of restaurants and shops. It is surrounded by dense forest, and there are lots of lovely coastal trails. The 10km cliff walk from Portinatx to Cala Xarraca is pretty challenging, but worth it for the views. You can take some outstanding boat trips from Portinatx, where you will enjoy the coastline’s hidden gems and enjoy a variety of watersports. The sunset cruises are amazing. The golden sandy bay of Cala Xarraca is very popular with locals who know the hidden spots and can reach it by sea. It is much less built-up than the beaches of the south and boasts a fabulous, crystal-clear turquoise sea that makes you want to get straight in and not get out again! There are natural mud baths formed that are supposed to do wonders for the skin. It is also rocky in places, so excellent for snorkelling. Other lovely coves are Cala Sant Vicent and Benirras.
Ibizkus Wines of Santa Gertrudis opened in 2007 and produced excellent red, white and rose wines with local Monastrell, Syrah, Tempranillo, Macabeo, Malvasia Grec, Parellada and Chardonnay grapes. The cellars are situated between the villages of San Rafael and Santa Gertrudis. They offer visits to their cellars and wine tastings every day except Sundays.
Ibiza’s Old Town and the trendy new marina are fabulous nightlife destinations for their swanky bars and world-class restaurants. Ibiza Town is incredibly diverse. It is romantic, historical, intriguing, vibrant and cosmopolitan. The most famous of the nightclubs is Pacha, where clubbers flock to listen to the famous DJ sets and dance the night away. The ancient walled fortress of Dalt Vila is a warren of narrow, cobbled streets brimming with cathedrals, chapels, churches, museums and flower-adorned balconies.

The Region
San Juan (Sant Joan in Catalan) really is the last village in Ibiza. Arrive there and the only place left to go is the beach at Cala San Vicente, some kilometres down a steep, twisting road through pine-clad hills.
This traditionally rural area is home to a large number of agrotourism accommodations in all of Ibiza. Visitors come here to step back in time to the days when the island was a quiet Spanish backwater.
The day of 24 June is the day of the village's patron San Juan, Saint John the Baptist. The evening before, on 23 June, the night of San Juan is happening, a raucous fiesta featuring firecrackers and bonfires to drive away evil spirits and welcome the summer is celebrated in the village.
