Apartamentos Es Daus

About Apartamentos Es Daus

Apartamentos Es Daus suits travellers who want a self-catering base on Formentera without staying in the busiest part of Es Pujols. The apartments sit in a quiet spot on Camí Ses Vinyes, about 0.6 km from the village centre and its beach. The property is unrated, so the emphasis is on practical comfort: kitchens, outdoor space and parking.

This is an apartment stay rather than a hotel, so you manage your own meals and daily routine. The listed facilities cover the essentials for a week or longer: air conditioning, a kitchen or kitchenette, a balcony or patio, free wifi and free car parking. For families, cots and high chairs are listed, and the garden and picnic area give children room to move.

Location: Es Pujols

The apartments are in the countryside between Es Pujols and Sant Ferran de ses Roques, a short walk from the liveliest village on Formentera. Es Pujols has a beach, boat houses and evening bars, all about 0.6 km away as the crow flies. Sant Ferran, a crossroads village, is 1.3 km away, and the island capital Sant Francesc Xavier is 2.8 km away.

In high summer, Es Pujols fills with day visitors and evening crowds; the apartments' setting away from the centre gives some separation. In the shoulder months, from late spring to early autumn, the area is quieter and the beach more relaxed. A car or scooter helps reach the rest of the island, though the green cycling routes pass nearby for those who prefer pedalling.

Rooms and facilities

The apartments are listed with air conditioning, a kitchen or kitchenette, a refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher in some units, plus a TV and free wifi. Each has a balcony or patio, and the property includes a garden, terrace and picnic area. Cleaning and laundry services are listed, which is useful for longer stays.

For families, cots and high chairs are available, and the non-smoking rooms keep the indoor air clean. A safe and smoke detectors are listed for security. Confirm with the property which specific kitchen equipment and outdoor furniture are in your unit, as apartment layouts vary. Late arrivals should arrange check-in times directly.

Getting there

Formentera has no airport. Fly to Ibiza Airport (IBZ), about 7 km south-west of Ibiza Town, then take a bus or taxi to the port. Ferries from Ibiza Town to La Savina take about 30-35 minutes on fast services and about an hour on conventional ferries; sailings are frequent in season and fewer in winter, so check the operators.

From La Savina, Apartamentos Es Daus is about 3.9 km in a straight line, a short drive or bike ride. The property has free car parking, and car rental is listed as a service. For getting around, bikes and the signposted green routes are a good option, or use scooters, buses and taxis. The Consell de Formentera caps visitor vehicles in high season, so check before bringing or hiring a car.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Es Pujols, 0.6 km away, has the nearest beach and the island's main evening scene. The Ca na Costa megalithic tomb, about 4,000 years old and the oldest known monument on the Pitiusas, is 1.7 km away and worth a short trip. The lagoons, about 2.5 km away, attract birds and offer calm water for a kayak or paddleboard.

Sant Francesc Xavier, 2.9 km away, has a fortified 18th-century church, a market and the island's shops. Island food includes peix sec (dried fish), fresh fish and island salads. For a longer day out, the Ses Illetes sand spit and the beaches of Migjorn are within reach by bike or car, though they are not within walking distance of the apartments.

A day from Apartamentos Es Daus

Start the morning with coffee on your patio, then walk or cycle the 0.6 km to Es Pujols beach for a swim before the day boats arrive. Afterwards, head inland to the Ca na Costa tomb, 1.7 km away, to see the megalithic stones in the quiet of the morning. Stop at Sant Ferran, 1.3 km from the apartments, for a drink or a snack.

In the afternoon, take a short drive or bike ride to the lagoons, 2.5 km away, to watch birds and paddle in the calm water. Return to the apartments for a siesta or a picnic in the garden. As evening falls, walk back to Es Pujols for dinner at one of the village bars, then stroll along the beach before returning to the quiet of Camí Ses Vinyes.

Practical tips

Much of Formentera's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, so check the apartments' opening dates before booking. July and August are the peak months, with the busiest beaches and the highest demand. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax is charged per person per night by the accommodation; the rate changes with season and length of stay, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rate with the Govern de les Illes Balears.
