Location: Es Pujols

Es Pujols is the liveliest village on Formentera, with a long sandy beach, boat houses and a strip of bars and cafés that stay open into the evening. The hotel is set back from the seafront, so it is quiet at night.

Sant Ferran de ses Roques is 1.8 km away, a crossroads village between the lagoons and the south coast. Sant Francesc Xavier, the island's capital with its fortified church and shops, is 3.7 km away. In high summer, the roads around Es Pujols and Sant Ferran are busy with scooters and hire cars. In May, June and September, the pace is slower and parking easier.
