About Hotel Es Mitjorn

Hotel Es Mitjorn suits travellers who want a simple base close to the centre of Sant Antoni de Portmany and a pool to come back to. The address on Metge Mateu Gasull puts the bay and the west coast sunsets within walking distance. Couples, friends and families all fit: the hotel lists family rooms, a garden, a solarium and an outdoor pool, and the town centre is 0.3 km away.

Es Mitjorn is a two-star hotel, and the guest score of 4.5/5 from 235 reviews suggests a well-run, unfussy place rather than a big resort. The listed facilities cover the practical side of a holiday: air conditioning, free wifi, a 24-hour front desk and a bar. A restaurant and a pool bar mean an afternoon by the outdoor pool needs little planning, and the garden and solarium give quieter corners.

Location: Sant Antoni de Portmany

Hotel Es Mitjorn sits 0.3 km from the centre of Sant Antoni de Portmany, a bay that faces due west on Ibiza's west coast. The sunset strip runs along the north shore, which is why evenings here are the main event. Sant Antoni is one of the island's five municipalities, and the bay is the reason many people base themselves on this side of Ibiza. In July and August the waterfront is at its busiest; in May, June, September and October it is calmer and easier to walk.

Walking covers the town: the centre of Sant Antoni de Portmany is 0.3 km from the door, so dinner and the sunset need no transport. Everything else on the west coast is easier with a car or a seasonal bus. Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta sit 3.1 km away, Cala Comte 6.8 km, Cala d'Hort 12 km and Ibiza Town port 14.2 km. The hotel lists parking and a car rental service, which simplifies the coves.

Rooms and facilities

Air conditioning, a TV, a safe, a desk, a hairdryer and a balcony appear on the room list at Hotel Es Mitjorn. Couples can treat the balcony and the garden as the quiet end of the day, with the solarium for the sun. Families are served by family rooms and cots, and the outdoor pool, pool bar and restaurant keep everyone on site. Laundry service, iron and board, room service and currency exchange are also listed.

Late arrivals have the 24-hour front desk, and luggage storage covers the hours before a room is ready. Confirm check-in and check-out times when booking, and ask where the refrigerator and microwave listed are available, since they may not be in every room. Parking, cot availability, balcony position and pool access for children are worth checking with Hotel Es Mitjorn directly. The hotel can confirm what comes with each room type.

Getting there

Hotel Es Mitjorn is 13.4 km from Ibiza Airport (IBZ) in a straight line. The airport sits in Sant Josep, about 7 km south-west of Ibiza Town, and taxis and hire cars cover the run to Sant Antoni directly. Buses link the airport with Ibiza Town, Sant Antoni, Santa Eulària and the south beaches, with more lines in summer; check current times with the island bus operator. Flights are fewer in winter.

The port of Eivissa (Ibiza Town) is 14.2 km away in a straight line, and the road from there runs up the west coast to Sant Antoni de Portmany. Ferries leave that port for Formentera (La Savina), Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia, and Sant Antoni has some mainland routes in season, so the crossing needed may start from the town itself. Check operators for timetables, which thin from November to April.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

The nearest coves are Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta, 3.1 km away in a straight line, small and best reached by car or a seasonal bus. Cala Comte sits 6.8 km from Hotel Es Mitjorn, with shallow clear water and islets offshore, and its sunset is the reason many people drive over. Cala d'Hort, 12 km away, faces Es Vedrà, the limestone islet about 380 m high where nobody lands.

Walkers can climb Sa Talaia, the island's highest point at about 475 m, 6.9 km from Hotel Es Mitjorn in a straight line. Island cooking leans on fish, with the fish stew bullit de peix served in two courses, and arròs a banda alongside. The hotel lists a restaurant and a snack bar, so a late return from a cove still leaves an option on site.

A day from Hotel Es Mitjorn

Begin with the short walk into Sant Antoni de Portmany, 0.3 km from Hotel Es Mitjorn, for coffee by the bay. Then head 3.1 km to Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta for a morning swim, or 6.8 km to Cala Comte for shallow water and the islets offshore. A hire car or a seasonal bus makes both straightforward, and the hotel lists parking for guests who drive.

In the afternoon, climb Sa Talaia, 6.9 km away, for the view from about 475 m, or drive 12 km to Cala d'Hort to watch the light on Es Vedrà. Finish on the sunset strip, a 0.3 km walk from the hotel door, with the sun going down over the bay. Dinner fits either the restaurant at Hotel Es Mitjorn or the town, and the solarium or pool bar takes the rest of the evening.

Practical tips

Hotel Es Mitjorn works best as a summer base. Many of the island's seasonal businesses shut roughly from November to April, so confirm the hotel's own opening dates before booking a winter stay, and note that July and August are the fullest weeks. The ecotasa, the Balearic sustainable tourism tax, is added per person per night by Hotel Es Mitjorn, at a rate set by accommodation type and category and by season, reduced in low season and for longer stays, with children under 16 exempt. The Govern de les Illes Balears publishes current rates.
