Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway

About Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway

Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway suits travellers who want the shallow bay at Talamanca and the old town of Eivissa within a short run of each other. The hotel sits on Carrer De L'estornell and keeps a garden for slow mornings. Couples who prefer a low-key base, small groups and families travelling with a car all fit here. Talamanca is 1.4 km away, so a swim before breakfast is realistic if the walk back up the hill does not put you off.

Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway is a three-star hotel rather than a resort, and the pace matches that: a garden, an indoor pool and free wifi, plus free car parking for guests who drive. Nothing is staged for a crowd, which is the appeal for a couple on a first trip or a family that wants Dalt Vila at 3 km and its own schedule. Ask the hotel directly about the check-in window and the room type when booking.

Location: Santa Eulària des Riu

Talamanca is a calm, shallow bay across the marina from Ibiza Town, and Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway sits inland from it at 1.4 km. The surrounding streets are low-rise and residential, with the water appearing on the walk down. Eivissa's port is 2.4 km away and the walls of Dalt Vila are 3 km away, so errands, ferry departures and an evening in the old town are short runs rather than an expedition.

The bay is walkable from Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway, and the climb back decides whether you do it twice a day. For Dalt Vila, the port and Puig des Molins at 3.7 km, a car, a bus or a taxi saves time in the heat. Cala Llonga is 5.9 km off and the Ses Salines dunes 11.7 km, both easier with a car. High summer brings the busiest roads near the marina and the port; May, June and September make the same runs feel easy.

Rooms and facilities

Facilities at Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway are listed as free wifi, free car parking, a garden and an indoor pool. For couples the garden and the pool cover a lazy afternoon after a morning at Talamanca. Families gain space to spread out and a pool that does not depend on the sea, which sits around 18-19 °C in May. Guests arriving late should arrange the arrival time with the hotel before travelling.

Ask Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway about the room type that fits your group, whether the indoor pool is available for your dates, and where to leave the car on arrival. Guests with limited mobility should check access to the pool and the garden before booking. Breakfast, any meals, and the check-in and check-out times are worth confirming at the time of booking, since these can shift with the season. Free wifi covers a short working stay.

Getting there

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) is 9.5 km from Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway in a straight line, in the municipality of Sant Josep. A taxi is the quickest way with bags. Hiring a car at the airport gives freedom for the coves later in the stay, and the hotel lists free car parking. Buses from the airport reach Ibiza Town, Sant Antoni, Santa Eulària and the south beaches, with more lines in summer, so check the island bus operator for the current route towards Talamanca.

Ibiza Town port is 2.4 km from Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway, useful for ferries to La Savina on Formentera, with fast crossings of about 30-35 minutes and conventional sailings of about an hour; check the operators. Talamanca is 1.4 km away and Dalt Vila 3 km, both short hops. Seasonal buses thin out outside summer and flights are fewer in winter, so confirm timings with the hotel before a late arrival.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Talamanca, 1.4 km from Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway, is the nearest swim: a calm, shallow bay across the marina from Ibiza Town. Cala Llonga, a long sheltered inlet with shallow water, is 5.9 km away.

The Ses Salines dunes, in the natural park since 2001, are 11.7 km away.

Fish stew comes in two courses on Ibiza: bullit de peix first, then arròs a banda cooked with the broth. Portions suit two or more, which makes it a long lunch after a morning at Talamanca. Fresh fish and rice dishes fill out menus across the island. From Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway, Ibiza Town at 3 km is the obvious place to eat before the short drive back to the hotel.

Practical tips

Many hotels, beach bars, boat trips and seasonal buses on Ibiza close roughly from November to April, so check Ibiza Sunshine Hideaway's own opening dates before booking a winter stay. Peak season falls in July and August, when the sea reaches about 25-26 °C. The ecotasa, the Balearic sustainable tourism tax, is charged per person per night by the accommodation, varies by category and season, exempts children under 16 and is set by the Govern de les Illes Balears.
