Apartamentos Pinosol

About Apartamentos Pinosol

Apartamentos Pinosol suits travellers who prefer a quiet, self-catering stay away from the main resort bustle. The apartments are in the countryside, with an outdoor pool, garden and free parking. The property is listed with a spa and sauna, though guests should confirm current availability. This is a practical base for couples or small families who have a hire car and want to explore the east coast coves and the markets at Es Canar and Sant Carles.

The accommodation is rated with three stars and holds a guest score of 8.6, reflecting consistent satisfaction among previous visitors. The setting is rural, with no immediate neighbours, so peace and quiet are the main draw. The nearest town, Santa Eulària des Riu, is 3.5 km away by road, offering a promenade, marina and a range of restaurants and shops.

Location: Santa Eulària des Riu

Apartamentos Pinosol is located inland, roughly midway between Santa Eulària des Riu and the small cove of Cala Llonga. The area is agricultural, with low stone walls and pine trees. Santa Eulària, 3.5 km away, is a river town with a long promenade, a marina and a slower pace than the west end of the island. Cala Llonga, 4 km away, is a sheltered inlet with shallow water, good for swimming. Es Canar, 8.1 km away, has a family beach and the Punta Arabí hippy market on Wednesdays in season.

In high summer, July and August, the roads to Santa Eulària and the beaches are busy, but the hotel itself remains quiet. A car is essential for reaching supermarkets, restaurants and the coast; taxis are available but less frequent in this rural area. In the shoulder months of May, June, September and October, the countryside is greener, the roads quieter and the temperatures milder, making it a more relaxed time for exploring.

Rooms and facilities

The apartments at Apartamentos Pinosol are self-catering units. The property is listed with air conditioning, free WiFi and a garden. There is an outdoor pool for guest use. For those arriving late, check-in times should be confirmed directly with the property, as the rural location means there are no reception staff overnight. The listed facilities include a spa and sauna, but guests should verify whether these are open during their stay, as seasonal closures can apply.

The accommodation is best suited to couples or small families who want space and independence. The kitchen facilities allow for self-catering, which is useful given the distance to restaurants. The property has free on-site parking, so a hire car is convenient. Guests with mobility concerns should check the apartment layout, as the rural setting may involve steps or uneven ground.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 16 km straight line from Apartamentos Pinosol. By road, the journey takes about 20 minutes by taxi or hire car. A bus from the airport to Santa Eulària des Riu runs in summer, but from there it is still 3.5 km to the apartments, so a taxi or pre-arranged transfer is more practical. The airport is in Sant Josep, south-west of Ibiza Town, and the route crosses the island via the main road.

From Ibiza Town port, 9.2 km straight line away, the drive is about 15 minutes. The port has ferries to Formentera, Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia. Santa Eulària des Riu, 3.5 km away, has a marina and a bus stop with seasonal services to other parts of the island. Flights and ferries are fewer from November to April, and some bus routes stop running, so a hire car is the most reliable option in winter.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

The nearest beaches are Cala Llonga, 4 km away, a long sheltered inlet with shallow water, and Es Canar, 8.1 km away, a family beach with a small promenade. The Punta Arabí hippy market at Es Canar runs on Wednesdays in season. Las Dalias market, at Sant Carles de Peralta, is 6.5 km away and open on Saturdays; check current days before visiting. The walls of Dalt Vila in Ibiza Town are 9.7 km away, a UNESCO World Heritage site with views over the port.

The east of Ibiza is known for its pine-fringed coves and quieter roads. Santa Eulària des Riu, 3.5 km away, has a promenade, a marina and a range of restaurants serving fresh fish and rice dishes. Bullit de peix and arròs a banda are the island's traditional fish stew, served in two courses. The countryside around the hotel has walking paths, but these are not signposted, so a car is needed for most outings.

Morning: start with breakfast at the apartment, then drive 4 km to Cala Llonga for a swim in the sheltered bay. The water is shallow and calm, suitable for a relaxed morning. Alternatively, head 3.5 km into Santa Eulària des Riu and walk along the promenade, stopping at the marina. The town has a market on some mornings; check locally for days and times.

Evening: return to the apartment for a self-catered dinner or drive back to Santa Eulària for an evening meal at a restaurant by the marina. The drive is short and the roads are quiet after dark.

Practical tips

Much of Ibiza's tourism business closes roughly from November to April; check with Apartamentos Pinosol for their exact opening dates before booking. July and August are the peak months, with higher demand and busier roads. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax, known as the ecotasa, is charged per person per night by the accommodation; the rate varies by season and length of stay, and children under 16 are exempt. Check the current rate with the Govern de les Illes Balears.
