Nereida Aparthotel

About Nereida Aparthotel

Nereida Aparthotel suits travellers who want a base with space to spread out rather than a single room. The three-star aparthotel stands on Carrer De Madrid 10 on the edge of Sant Antoni de Portmany, 2.4 km from the town and 4.8 km from the coves at Cala Comte. Couples who drive, families needing a pool and a playground, and guests who plan to cook some of their own meals all fit the same profile here.

It is a three-star aparthotel, and the guest score of 4.1/5 from 671 reviews gives a fair idea of what to expect before booking. The shape of the stay is practical: somewhere to sleep, swim and eat breakfast before heading out, rather than a destination in itself. An aparthotel layout usually means some self-catering, which keeps costs down for families staying a week or more.

Location: Sant Josep de sa Talaia

Sant Antoni de Portmany fills both sides of a wide bay on Ibiza's west coast, and Nereida Aparthotel sits 2.4 km from the centre, close enough for a short taxi ride into town and far enough to sleep away from the loudest streets. The town has restaurants, a marina and a beach of its own, and it stays open through the year rather than closing with the season. The sunsets over the bay are the reason many people choose this side of the island.

A hire car makes the west coast easy: Cala Comte is 4.8 km away, Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta 4 km, and Cala d'Hort 10.3 km. Sa Talaia, the island's highest point at about 475 m, is 6.3 km off. Buses serve Sant Antoni and the airport, with more lines in summer, and the hotel lists a shuttle service. July and August bring the heaviest traffic, while May, June, September and October make the same drives calmer.

Rooms and facilities

The facilities list at Nereida Aparthotel covers the practical side of a beach holiday: free wifi, a safe, a television, lifts and luggage storage, plus a 24 hour front desk for late arrivals. Couples get a terrace, a lounge and a pool bar on the list, while families have a playground, an arcade, table tennis and a kids pool to keep children busy. A garden and a café, bar and snack service are also listed, and the property is wheelchair accessible.

Activity bookings are worth arranging at reception: diving, sailing and surf all appear on the facilities list, alongside bicycle hire for shorter trips around the coast road. Multilingual staff, a concierge and a bell boy service are listed too, which helps if you arrive with luggage and no plan. Confirm with Nereida Aparthotel what the pool hours are, whether the shuttle service runs on your dates, and how the sports and bicycle hire are booked, since these arrangements can change with the season.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 13.7 km from Nereida Aparthotel in a straight line, in the municipality of Sant Josep. A taxi from arrivals is the simplest option, and a hire car collected at the airport makes the run to Carrer De Madrid straightforward. Buses link the airport with Sant Antoni de Portmany, with more lines in summer; check the island bus operator for the current timetable and the stop nearest the hotel. Roads west are busiest at weekends in high season.

From Ibiza Town port, 15.5 km away, the drive takes in the coast road round the bay; the port is where ferries leave for Formentera's La Savina, with fast crossings of about 30-35 minutes. Sant Antoni de Portmany itself has some mainland routes in season, useful if you arrive by sea. Flights and ferries thin out between November and April, so check timetables with the operators before booking a winter trip and confirm opening dates with Nereida Aparthotel.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Cala Comte, 4.8 km away, is the closest sandy swim and the standard sunset outing from Nereida Aparthotel: shallow water, islets offshore and a west-facing horizon. Cala Salada and Cala Saladeta are 4 km off, and Cala d'Hort, 10.3 km south, looks across to Es Vedrà, a limestone islet about 380 m high with no landing allowed. Each of these coves is easiest by car or a seasonal bus from Sant Antoni.

Food on Ibiza is built around fish and rice: bullit de peix and arròs a banda, the island fish stew served in two courses, are the dishes to look for along the west coast. Sant Antoni de Portmany, 2.4 km from Nereida Aparthotel, has the widest choice of places to eat within easy reach, and the town keeps going through the winter. For a wider spread of shops, head to Eivissa, where Dalt Vila's Renaissance walls and cathedral sit above the port.

A day from Nereida Aparthotel

Start early with the climb up Sa Talaia, 6.3 km from Nereida Aparthotel and about 475 m high, before the heat builds. Come back down for a late breakfast, then drive the 4.8 km to Cala Comte for a swim among the islets offshore. Families often split the afternoon between the outdoor pool and the playground on site; anyone with energy left can take the table tennis or the arcade while the sun drops.

The evening belongs to the west coast. Cala Comte is the obvious place for sunset, 4.8 km from the hotel, and Cala d'Hort, 10.3 km away, gives a different view towards Es Vedrà. Afterwards, carry on into Sant Antoni de Portmany, 2.4 km off, for dinner in town and a walk along the bay. A hire car keeps the day flexible, and the hotel's listed shuttle service is worth asking about for evenings when nobody wants to drive.

Practical tips

Across Ibiza much of the tourism business closes roughly from November to April, though Sant Antoni de Portmany keeps some restaurants and shops open through the winter, so confirm dates with Nereida Aparthotel before booking outside the main months. July and August draw the biggest crowds; May, June, September and October are quieter. A sustainable tourism tax is charged per person per night by the accommodation, varying with the property's type and category and with the season, reduced in low season and for longer stays, with children under 16 exempt. The Govern de les Illes Balears publishes current rates.
