About azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II

Families with children and couples who want a straightforward base close to Sant Antoni de Portmany fit best here. The hotel stands on the Carretera Port Des Torrent, 1.5 km from the town, so the bay, its cafés and its evening promenade are a short ride away rather than at the door. A kids pool, playground, games room, mini golf and table tennis appear among the facilities, which suits groups travelling with younger children.

This is a three-star hotel with a guest score of 3.8 out of 5 from about 2,300 reviews, so expectations should sit in the mid-range bracket: practical comfort rather than polished luxury. The outdoor pool, pool bar, solarium and terrace shape the day, with a gym and fitness centre for those who want them. Ask the property directly about the room details that matter to you, from bed layout to balcony position.

Location: Sant Josep de sa Talaia

The bay at Sant Antoni de Portmany faces due west, and the north shore is the sunset strip, where people gather at dusk. azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II has its address on the Carretera Port Des Torrent, 1.5 km from the centre of Sant Antoni, which puts the waterfront, buses and shops within a short walk or a very short ride. Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta lie 4.3 km away.

Walking covers the 1.5 km into Sant Antoni de Portmany comfortably. Everything else needs wheels: Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta at 4.3 km, Cala Comte at 6.4 km, Cala d'Hort at 10.9 km and Ibiza Town port at 13.8 km are straight-line figures, so road distances run longer. Buses and taxis serve the coast in summer and a hire car gives more freedom, though in high summer an early start saves time on the coast road.

Rooms and facilities

Listed room features include air conditioning, a balcony, a desk, a television, a telephone, a safe, a bath, a hairdryer and toiletries, so the basics for a beach holiday are covered. Couples can treat the balcony and the solarium as quiet corners; families tend to gravitate to the outdoor pool, the kids pool and the games room. A 24-hour front desk, lifts, luggage storage and a wake-up service help guests arriving late.

Cleaning and laundry service appear among the listed facilities, along with free wifi and internet access, which matters if part of the group needs to work. None of this guarantees a particular room: confirm the bed arrangement, how much sun the balcony gets, and any charge for the in-room safe with the property before booking. Ask about cots and pool towels too, since those arrangements change with the season.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) lies 12.4 km from azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II in a straight line, in the municipality of Sant Josep. Taxis wait outside arrivals and are the simplest option with luggage; hire cars are available at the airport and useful if the plan includes the west coast coves. Buses connect the airport with Sant Antoni de Portmany and other island towns, with more lines in summer, so check the island bus operator for current times.

From Ibiza Town port, 13.8 km away, ferries leave for Formentera (La Savina), Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia, and Sant Antoni also has some mainland routes in season, which shortens the transfer for anyone arriving by sea. From the port, hire a car or take a taxi along the coast road to the Carretera Port Des Torrent. Winter brings fewer flights and fewer sailings, so allow some slack on arrival days.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta, 4.3 km away, are the nearest swimming coves in this list, reached by road and then on foot down to the water. Cala Comte, 6.4 km from the hotel, has shallow clear water and islets offshore, and it is the classic place on this coast to watch the sun drop into the sea. Cala d'Hort, 10.9 km away, faces Es Vedrà, the limestone islet about 380 m high that nobody lands on.

Sa Talaia, the highest point on Ibiza at about 475 m, is 5.6 km away and gives a short climb with the west coast spread out below. Sant Antoni de Portmany, 1.5 km off, covers the practical side of the holiday: buses, shops and the waterfront. For food, look for bullit de peix and arròs a banda, the island fish stew served in two courses, plus fresh fish and rice dishes around the bay.

A day from azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II

Start early with the 4.3 km drive to Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta, where the walk down to the smaller cove is easier before the day heats up. Continue to the climb up Sa Talaia, 5.6 km from azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II, for a view over the whole island before lunch. A hire car or a taxi makes this loop simple, and seasonal buses reach parts of the coast on a limited schedule.

Spend the afternoon at Cala Comte, 6.4 km away, swimming in the shallows and staying on for the sunset over the islets. Dinner fits back in Sant Antoni de Portmany, 1.5 km from azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II, where the bay faces due west and the evening carries on along the north shore. Walk back if the group is happy with 1.5 km, or take a taxi for the last stretch.

Practical tips

Between roughly November and April many of Ibiza's hotels, beach bars and seasonal buses close, so confirm opening dates for azuLine Hoteles Mar Amantis & II with the hotel before booking a winter or early-spring stay. July and August bring the fullest coast and pool terraces. A sustainable tourism tax, the ecotasa, is charged per person per night by the accommodation: rates depend on the type and category of the property and the season, are reduced in low season and for longer stays, and children under 16 are exempt, so check the Govern de les Illes Balears.
