Posted on October 24, 2024 in Attractions, Things to do

At Ibiza Summer Villas, we specialise in offering the most exclusive and luxurious villa rentals across the beautiful island of Ibiza. From vibrant party hubs to serene escapes, our carefully curated portfolio ensures that every traveller finds their ideal vacation haven. In this article, we turn our focus to a side of Ibiza often overlooked – the quieter, more tranquil regions of the island. Whether you're seeking a romantic retreat, a peaceful holiday with friends, or simply a break from the hustle and bustle, the quiet part of Ibiza offers idyllic destinations for a serene getaway.

Why Choose the Quiet Part of Ibiza?

While Ibiza is renowned for its lively nightlife and bustling beach clubs, the quieter parts of the island present an entirely different kind of charm. For many, escaping to a peaceful corner of Ibiza allows for a more intimate connection with the island’s natural beauty, rich culture, and slower pace of life. Choosing the quieter areas over the more popular spots offers several benefits.

First, the quiet part of Ibiza allows you to unwind in a calm environment, far from the crowds. You can enjoy scenic beaches, quaint villages, and rolling countryside where you’re more likely to hear the sounds of nature than the thumping beat of music. Additionally, these areas provide more authentic Ibizan experiences – local eateries, charming markets, and cultural landmarks that invite exploration away from the tourist hotspots.

For couples, the quiet part of Ibiza offers romantic hideaways where privacy and tranquillity are paramount. Families and groups looking for a restful holiday will appreciate the peaceful settings, while adventure seekers can enjoy activities like hiking, cycling, and exploring hidden coves, all without the distractions of the island's more commercialised areas.

Quiet Destinations in Ibiza

For those who are curious about the serene side of Ibiza, the island boasts several quiet destinations and quiet beaches perfect for an undisturbed escape.

Santa Eulalia

As one of the more relaxed towns on the island, Santa Eulalia is a favourite among visitors seeking a more laid-back atmosphere. Its charming promenade, local restaurants, and picturesque marina make it an ideal base for a quiet holiday. The town exudes a sophisticated charm and is far removed from Ibiza’s party scene.

Portinatx

Located on the northern tip of the island, Portinatx is a tranquil coastal village known for its crystal-clear waters and stunning beaches. This peaceful retreat offers an array of small coves and bays, perfect for those who want to enjoy the sea without the crowds.

Formentera

Though not technically part of Ibiza, Formentera is a short ferry ride away and is renowned for its pristine beaches and unspoiled landscapes. The entire island has a much quieter and slower vibe compared to Ibiza, making it a fantastic day-trip option for those looking for a secluded beach paradise.

Cala Xuclar

Cala Xuclar is one of Ibiza's best-kept secrets, a small, unspoiled cove tucked away on the island's northern coast. With its quiet atmosphere and crystal-clear waters, it's an ideal spot for a relaxing day by the sea, far from the busier beaches.

Sa Talaia

For those who enjoy a bit of adventure, Sa Talaia, Ibiza’s highest peak, offers breathtaking views of the island. While it’s a popular spot for hiking, its quiet trails make it perfect for those seeking peace and serenity in nature.

Santa Gertrudis de Fruitera

This charming inland village is known for its bohemian vibe and local art galleries. Santa Gertrudis is perfect for visitors who want to explore Ibiza’s countryside while enjoying authentic Ibizan culture and cuisine.

Puerto San Miguel

A small village on the island’s northern coast, Puerto San Miguel offers a secluded bay perfect for swimming and sunbathing. Its quiet beaches and stunning scenery make it ideal for those seeking relaxation by the sea.

Las Salinas Natural Park

Las Salinas Natural Park is a quiet haven for nature lovers. Its salt flats, wetlands, and pristine beaches provide a tranquil setting for a peaceful day of birdwatching, swimming, or strolling through nature.

Es Cubells

This small, picturesque village on the southwest coast of Ibiza offers stunning views over the sea and nearby cliffs. The peaceful surroundings of Es Cubells make it an ideal spot for a quiet escape.

Cala Llonga

Cala Llonga is a beautiful beach resort located in a sheltered bay. Its calm waters and peaceful atmosphere make it a popular choice for families and couples seeking a more relaxed holiday environment.

San Jose

San Jose is a traditional village situated in the heart of Ibiza’s countryside. With its whitewashed buildings, local restaurants, and nearby hiking trails, San Jose is perfect for those looking for an authentic and peaceful Ibizan experience.

Quiet Part of Ibiza for Couples

Ibiza is an excellent choice for couples seeking a romantic escape, and the quieter parts of the island offer plenty of intimate and beautiful spots to enjoy together. Whether you’re watching the sunset from a secluded beach or exploring hidden coves, the quiet part of Ibiza for couples is all about privacy and relaxation.

Romantic dining experiences in villages like Santa Gertrudis or San Jose allow couples to enjoy authentic local cuisine in a peaceful setting. For those seeking adventure, a hike up to Sa Talaia offers breathtaking panoramic views, while secluded beaches like Cala Xuclar provide the perfect backdrop for a private day by the sea.

Holidays to Quiet Part of Ibiza by Activity

Sunset Watching

The quiet part of Ibiza offers some of the island’s best spots for sunset watching. Head to the beaches of Portinatx or Es Cubells for breathtaking, serene sunsets where the horizon meets the tranquil sea.

Beach Enjoyment

Beaches like Cala Xuclar and Cala Llonga offer peaceful, family-friendly environments away from the crowds. The crystal-clear waters and soft sands make these beaches ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or simply soaking up the sun in a quiet setting.

Countryside Experience

For those who prefer a more rural experience, the countryside around San Jose and Santa Gertrudis offers a quiet escape. These areas are perfect for hiking, cycling, and exploring Ibiza’s natural beauty, with rolling hills, traditional villages, and lush landscapes waiting to be discovered.

Old Town Exploration

While Ibiza Town is known for its bustling nightlife, there are quieter, historical parts that offer a glimpse into the island’s rich cultural heritage. The old town, Dalt Vila, is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and its ancient streets and historical buildings provide a peaceful environment for exploration.

Staying at the villa was absolutely lovely! The atmosphere was beautiful, and the views were breathtaking. The spacious rooms were beautifully decorated, making it feel like a home away from home. We enjoyed lounging by the pool and the outdoor space was perfect for relaxing evenings and game night with the family (games was also provided in the villa). It was a clean, secure, and comfortable place… our family will recommend this Villa to anyone, special mention to Maria she was absolutely amazing and really helpful… as we struggled with ordering taxis if we messaged her, she always responded fast and helped in the best way possible. Overall,…

Stayed in Villa Mali for 5 nights in June and couldn’t have been happier. Such a beautiful villa, in a perfectly quiet location but walking distance from some cute restaurants and the supermarkets so we didn’t need a car. Getting a taxi was easy via the app and was an easy 20-25 minute drive from San Antonio. The facilities in the villa were fab, there was everything we needed to have a comfortable and relaxing stay. I loved the outside area with pool and dining/cooking space. This is the second time we have used Ibiza Summer Villas, their service is excellent and they really take care of you. I’m sure we will be back in one of their accommod…

Our group recently stayed at this villa in Ibiza and had a very enjoyable experience. The location is ideal for a group of young people, offering privacy and a peaceful atmosphere with no direct neighbors. The garden is spacious and well-maintained, providing plenty of room for outdoor activities. We appreciated the quiet surroundings, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time at the villa. Vicky, the host, was accommodating and made sure we had what we needed for a pleasant stay. Her helpfulness added to the overall positive experience. We had a great time at this villa and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet and spacious …

Our group of 14 recently spent a week at this incredible villa in Ibiza, and it was perfect for our needs. The villa was spotless and well-maintained, exceeding our expectations in every way. The spacious and comfortable setup made it easy for everyone to enjoy their stay without feeling crowded. The pool area was a standout feature, providing a fantastic spot to relax and soak up the sun for all of us. One small suggestion would be to remind people to pay extra for pool towels like we did. The villa's location was excellent, with reliable taxi services given to us by Ibiza summer villas that made getting around the island effortless thank yo…

Supermarket within walking distance and located in the lovely area of the nice little village of San jordi. Service from ibiza summer villa very suberb. Clear and quick responding with a very hands-on conciërge service. Would definately book a villa again (or stay again in villa Mali even!!)

Incredible stay at Ibiza summer villas in July. We stayed in Villa Blanca and it is perfect for 10 people (5 couples). 6th bedroom is adjoining another so not as good. Our villa was in great condition. All rooms were spacious and the kitchen was in pristine condition with all utensils. Pool was awesome and there’s a good drinks area too

We stayed at Can Senyora and it was a really beautiful villa in a lovely remote quiet area. We stayed for 4 nights and have enjoyed every second. Great communication from the agency, who were always on hand if we needed anything. The view from the villa and the pool were the highlights for me.
