The north of the island, near Santa Eulalia, is increasingly where it’s at, and the very chic, very stylish BLESS Hotel Ibiza epitomizes this. The most luxurious from the Spanish giant Palladium Group, it’s where to go if you fancy a highly Instagrammable stay.
Luxury in its most hedonistic form arrives in Ibiza, landing in the most authentic and fascinating zone of the island. Between the waves you’ll find BLESS Hotel Ibiza, situated in Es Canar’s Cala Nova cove, anticipating your arrival.
Since 2019, a new concept of luxury and lifestyle, this 5-star hotel in the north of Ibiza presents unique experiences and services designed to create only the most memorable stays.
Ibiza’s northern reaches are a paradise for those in search of tranquillity, hidden coves, hundred-year-old pine forests, and enchanting villages.
It’s an area containing winding roads surrounded by nature, breath-taking cliffs, secret caves brimming with light, picturesque lighthouses, and hiking trails that lead to the island’s most treasured corners. It’s a place where locals’ best-kept secrets await those willing to venture off-the-beaten-path.
All 151 rooms and suites at BLESS Hotel Ibiza have been decked out with the guest in mind. Each space has a bright and contemporary perspective with soft design touches and blushes of colour.
Enjoy a luxury memory foam mattress, balcony or terrace with furniture, walk-in wardrobe, flat screen TV, concierge, and turn-down services with every room.
When you’re not lounging at one of three swimming pools with waiter service, or enjoying direct access to the white-sand beach, why not stop at the spa for a facial or body treatment, a sensory shower or a sauna session.
Chef Martín Berasategui earned his first Michelin star at the age of 25, and now holds the national record for most stars (10 in total). He is renowned for his innovative, creative Basque cuisine, and the hotel restaurant ETXEKO is his first on the island. The dinner tasting menu is a must; if you opt for à la carte, be sure to order the fresh, ultra-complex ‘Lasarte salad’ with warm lobster and iodised tomatoes.
A breakfast buffet, with cooked dishes to order, is served in Salao Atlantic Restaurant, which doubles as a seafood restaurant for lunch. The Tris Vermouth Bar just off the lobby is a good place for jamon and Spanish tapas before going out.
Looking for something different? Head to the beach and on the left-hand side you will find Atzaró Beach and a little bit further you find the picture-perfect Aiyanna Ibiza.
The hotel’s owners, the Palladium Hotel Group (the same company that owns Ushuaia and the Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza), describe the décor at BLESS as ‘inspired by Coco Chanel’ – a slightly cringey way to describe what’s actually very chic.
The reception area and rooms feature a luxurious, monochromatic palette with sharp, black-trimmed architrave detailing; soft furnishings and accent chairs in pastel pink and Dijon mustard yellow are a unique finishing touch.
There’s also a very stylish bar on the ground floor with high ceilings and burnished gold accents.
