THB Ocean Beach Adults Only

About THB Ocean Beach Adults Only

THB Ocean Beach Adults Only suits couples and friends who want a calm base near Sant Antoni de Portmany rather than in the middle of the town. The hotel is adults only, so the pool, the garden and the terrace stay quiet through the afternoon. Its address on Bellavista 1, on Ibiza's west coast, keeps the bay, the harbour and the town's evening streets within an easy walk.

This is a four-star hotel on Ibiza's west coast with a guest score of 4.5/5 from 285 reviews. Expect a straightforward holiday hotel: an outdoor pool with a pool bar, a garden, a terrace, a lounge, a fitness centre and a restaurant, all listed among its facilities. Rooms are air conditioned and come with a balcony, a safe and a refrigerator. It works well for guests who plan days out and easy evenings.

Location: Sant Antoni de Portmany

THB Ocean Beach Adults Only stands about 1 km in a straight line from the centre of Sant Antoni de Portmany, on the north side of a bay that faces due west. That orientation gives the town its long sunsets, and the shore road along the north side fills in the evening. The town itself stays open through the year, with the harbour and the streets behind the waterfront worth a slow walk.

Walking covers the town, the bay and the waterfront. The coves need a car, a taxi or a seasonal bus: Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta are 4 km away in a straight line, Cala Comte 7.1 km and Cala d'Hort 11.6 km, and the climb to Sa Talaia starts about 6.1 km off. In July and August the coast road slows and the sand fills early; May, June, September and October are easier, with fewer people and cooler evenings.

Rooms and facilities

Late arrivals can rely on the 24-hour front desk, and lifts serve the floors. Rooms are listed with air conditioning, a balcony, a television, a telephone, a safe, a refrigerator, a hairdryer and toiletries, and non-smoking rooms are listed as well. Couples and friends travelling together get a quiet base: the pool, the garden and the terrace give space to spread out, and the pool bar covers the middle of the day.

Housekeeping, cleaning and laundry are listed, along with a concierge, a car rental service and a shuttle service. Confirm with THB Ocean Beach Adults Only how the shuttle runs, whether the restaurant handles special diets and how massage is arranged. Ask which rooms have a balcony and what it faces, and check the adults-only age policy when booking. First aid and smoke detectors are listed too.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 12.5 km away in a straight line, in the municipality of Sant Josep. Taxis and hire cars cover the run directly, and buses link the airport with Sant Antoni de Portmany and other island towns, with more lines in summer. THB Ocean Beach Adults Only lists a car rental service and a shuttle service, so ask about both before booking. Flights are fewer in winter.

Ibiza Town port is 13.5 km away in a straight line. Ferries leave it for Formentera (La Savina), Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia; Sant Antoni also has some mainland routes in season, which saves the drive. Check the operators for current timetables. For Formentera, fly into Ibiza first, as the island has no airport, then take a ferry from Ibiza Town port to La Savina.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

THB Ocean Beach Adults Only is not on the beach. The nearest of the listed coves is Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta, 4 km away in a straight line, reached by car, taxi or a seasonal bus. Cala Comte is 7.1 km off, with shallow water and islets offshore, and Cala d'Hort is 11.6 km away, facing the limestone islet of Es Vedrà, about 380 m high and a nature reserve with no landing.

Evenings in Sant Antoni de Portmany revolve around fish and rice. Bullit de peix and arròs a banda are the island dishes to look for, the fish stew served in two courses, with fresh fish and rice dishes alongside. Restaurants and bars in the town sit a walk of about 1 km from THB Ocean Beach Adults Only, and the waterfront stays busy after dark.

A day from THB Ocean Beach Adults Only

Start with a walk of about 1 km into Sant Antoni de Portmany for coffee and a look at the harbour, then return to the pool before the heat builds. In the afternoon, drive or take a taxi 4 km to Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta for a swim in clear water. Finish with the sunset over the bay, or make the 7.1 km trip to Cala Comte for it.

On a second day, leave early for the climb to Sa Talaia, about 6.1 km off in a straight line and the island's highest point at roughly 475 m. Continue to Cala d'Hort, 11.6 km away, for a late swim with Es Vedrà in view. A hire car makes the loop simple; taxis work but cost more, and seasonal buses stick to the main routes.

Practical tips

Most of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, so check the opening dates of THB Ocean Beach Adults Only before booking outside the main season. July and August are the peak, with the busiest roads and beaches; late spring and early autumn are quieter. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax is charged per person per night by the accommodation, at a rate that depends on the type and category of the hotel and the season, is reduced in low season and for longer stays. Check the Govern de les Illes Balears for current rates.
