NH Collection Ibiza

About NH Collection Ibiza

The NH Collection Ibiza suits travellers who want a central base on the island without being in the middle of the nightlife. It is a 5-star hotel with a guest score of 4.6 out of 5 from 356 reviews. The property sits in Talamanca, a calm, shallow bay across the marina from Ibiza Town, so it is close to the action but quieter than the south-coast resorts.

This is a full-service hotel with an outdoor pool, a pool bar, a solarium and a terrace. There is a restaurant on site, room service and a bar. The hotel also has a fitness centre, a concierge and a 24-hour front desk. Parking and valet parking are available, and the hotel offers a shuttle service.

Location: Talamanca

Talamanca is a calm, shallow bay directly across the marina from Ibiza Town. It is a residential area with a long sandy beach and a promenade. The hotel is on Passeig Joan Carles I, about 1 km straight line from both Talamanca beach and Dalt Vila and Ibiza Town. The port is 0.7 km away, so you can walk to the ferry terminal in a few minutes.

In high summer, the area is busy but less frantic than Playa d'en Bossa or Sant Antoni. The shoulder months of May, June, September and October are quieter, with more space on the beach and shorter queues at restaurants. The hotel is well placed for exploring the island by car or bus, though many of the north and west coves require a vehicle.

Rooms and facilities

The hotel lists rooms with air conditioning, a balcony, a minibar, a safe, a desk, a telephone, a TV and a radio. Bathrooms have a hairdryer, bathrobes, slippers and toiletries. Non-smoking rooms are available, and family rooms can be requested. Cots are listed for families with young children.

For late arrivals, the 24-hour front desk and room service are useful. The hotel also offers wake-up service and luggage storage. Guests should confirm specific room types, views and bed configurations directly with the property, as these are not detailed in the listing.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 7.5 km straight line from the hotel. A taxi takes about 15-20 minutes, depending on traffic. A hire car can be collected at the airport, and the hotel has parking and valet parking. Buses run from the airport to Ibiza Town, from where it is a short walk across the marina or a taxi ride to the hotel.

Ibiza Town port is 0.7 km away, so guests arriving by ferry from Formentera, Mallorca or the mainland can walk or take a short taxi ride. The hotel is also close to the bus stops in Ibiza Town for services to Sant Antoni, Santa Eulària and the south beaches. In winter, flights and ferries are fewer, so check schedules in advance.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

The nearest beach is Talamanca, about 1 km straight line. Playa d'en Bossa, the longest beach on the island, is 4 km away. Dalt Vila, the walled old town of Ibiza, is 1 km away, with its cathedral and Renaissance walls. The Puig des Molins necropolis, a Phoenician-Punic burial site and part of the UNESCO listing, is 1.7 km away.

For a longer walk, the Ses Salines dunes are 9.9 km away, within the Ses Salines Natural Park. The island's food includes bullit de peix and arròs a banda, a fish stew served in two courses, and fresh fish and rice dishes. Many restaurants in Ibiza Town serve these, but the hotel's own restaurant is an option for dinner.

A day from NH Collection Ibiza

Start the morning with a walk across the marina to Dalt Vila, about 1 km away. Climb the ramparts and visit the cathedral at the top. Then head down to the port for a coffee. In the afternoon, take a taxi or bus to Playa d'en Bossa, 4 km away, for a swim and a walk along the beach. Return to the hotel for a rest by the outdoor pool.

In the evening, walk to Ibiza Town for dinner at a restaurant near the port. After dark, explore the streets of Dalt Vila or the bars in the marina area. The hotel is close enough to walk back, avoiding the need for a taxi. In shoulder months, the town is quieter and the evenings are cooler, making the walk pleasant.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, so check the hotel's opening dates if travelling outside the main season. July and August are the peak months, with higher demand and prices. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax (the ecotasa) is charged per person per night by the accommodation; the rate depends on the type of accommodation and the season, is reduced in low season and for longer stays, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rate on the Govern de les Illes Balears website.
