Bluesea Paraiso Beach

About Bluesea Paraiso Beach

Bluesea Paraiso Beach suits travellers who want a simple base on Ibiza's east coast rather than a long resort strip. The hotel sits on Avinguda Punta Arabí in Es Canar, 0.6 km from the sheltered beach of the same name and 4 km from Santa Eulària des Riu. Couples who like walking to the water and families who want a pool and easy walks both fit here. The Punta Arabí hippy market is 1.1 km away.

Bluesea Paraiso Beach is a three-star hotel with a guest score of 4.4/5 from 28 reviews. That places it in the straightforward bracket: a lounge, a restaurant, an outdoor pool and a 24-hour front desk rather than a spa or a long list of extras. Late arrivals can reach the desk at any hour, which matters when a flight lands after dark. It is a practical stay for a beach-and-market holiday.

Location: Es Canar

Es Canar sits on the east coast of Ibiza, a sheltered bay with a family beach and a Wednesday hippy market at Punta Arabí in season. The village is small: a few streets, a shallow curve of water and a promenade that fills on market mornings. Bluesea Paraiso Beach stands on Avinguda Punta Arabí, 0.6 km from the beach and 4 km from Santa Eulària des Riu, the nearest town with a full set of services.

Everything in Es Canar is walkable from Bluesea Paraiso Beach, including the beach at 0.6 km and the market ground at 1.1 km. Santa Eulària des Riu is 4 km away, Cala Llonga 7.2 km and the Las Dalias market at Sant Carles 2.9 km; for those, use the bus, a taxi or a hire car. In July and August the bay and market days are busy, while May, June, September and October bring quieter walks and warm water.

Rooms and facilities

Facilities at Bluesea Paraiso Beach are listed as an outdoor pool, a restaurant, bars, a lounge, lifts, free wifi, a 24-hour front desk and wheelchair access. For couples, the pool and lounge cover the hours between beach and dinner. For families, the lifts and the front desk help when you arrive with bags and tired children, and the accessible layout assists guests with limited mobility between floors.

Worth confirming with the property before booking: which of the bars and the restaurant are open on your dates, how the restaurant handles breakfast and any dietary needs, and whether pool towels are provided. Guests arriving late should tell Bluesea Paraiso Beach in advance, since the front desk is listed as staffed around the clock. Ask about parking if you plan to drive, as market days crowd the approach.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) lies 22.4 km from Bluesea Paraiso Beach in a straight line, in Sant Josep on the other side of the island. Driving yourself or taking a taxi covers the run directly. Public transport means a bus into Ibiza Town or Santa Eulària des Riu first, then a second bus or a short taxi ride; lines multiply in summer, so check the island bus operator for current routes.

Ibiza Town port is 15.3 km away and handles ferries from Formentera (La Savina), Palma, Barcelona, Valencia and Dénia. From the terminal, head north-east along the coast past Santa Eulària des Riu, which is 4 km from Bluesea Paraiso Beach. Sailing times and winter frequencies change, so check the ferry operators; flights and crossings are both thinner outside the season, and buses thin with them.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Es Canar beach, 0.6 km from Bluesea Paraiso Beach, is the closest swim: a sheltered bay with shallow water that suits children. Cala Llonga, 7.2 km away, is a long sheltered inlet with shallow water. Santa Eulària des Riu, 4 km off, is a river town with a promenade, a marina and slower evenings than the beach resorts, useful for a change of scene.

Two markets sit close: the Punta Arabí hippy market at Es Canar, 1.1 km from Bluesea Paraiso Beach, on Wednesdays in season, and the Las Dalias market at Sant Carles de Peralta, 2.9 km away, on Saturdays, with days that can change, so check before setting out. Island cooking is worth seeking out: bullit de peix and arròs a banda, the fish stew served in two courses, plus grilled fish with rice.

A day from Bluesea Paraiso Beach

Begin with a swim at Es Canar, 0.6 km from Bluesea Paraiso Beach, before the bay warms up and the market crowd arrives. On a Wednesday in season, walk 1.1 km to the Punta Arabí market and give it the late morning. Return to Bluesea Paraiso Beach for the pool and lunch, then rest through the hottest part of the afternoon.

Later, take a bus or a car 4 km to Santa Eulària des Riu for the promenade and marina, or 7.2 km to Cala Llonga for a second swim. Evenings belong to Es Canar; the Las Dalias market at Sant Carles, 2.9 km inland, is a Saturday option when it opens. The north coast calas, a kayaking area 9.6 km away, need a car and a full day, not an evening.

Practical tips

Bluesea Paraiso Beach works best between spring and autumn. Much of the island's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, so check the hotel's own opening dates before booking, and expect the heaviest demand in July and August. An ecotasa, the Balearic sustainable tourism tax, is charged per person per night by the accommodation; its rate varies with the hotel's category and the season, falls in low season and on longer stays, and children under 16 are exempt. The Govern de les Illes Balears publishes current rates.
