Casa Datscha

About Casa Datscha

Casa Datscha is a self-catering apartment or villa set in the countryside 2.4 km from Sant Antoni de Portmany on Ibiza's west coast. The property suits travellers who want a quiet base with a kitchen, an outdoor pool and a garden, away from the resort strip but close enough to reach the town and its sunset bay by car or taxi. The accommodation is not rated with stars and has no guest score listed.

The stay is independent: guests manage their own meals in the kitchen and use the terrace and balcony for outdoor eating. The listed facilities include air conditioning, free WiFi, free car parking and a safe. There is no on-site restaurant or bar beyond a snack or café facility, so a hire car is useful for shopping and exploring the coast.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check Casa Datscha's opening dates before booking. July and August are the peak months, with the busiest beaches and roads. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax (ecotasa) is charged per person per night by the accommodation; the rate depends on the season and property type, is reduced for longer stays and in low season, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rate with the Govern de les Illes Balears.
