See Dalt Vila
Give the old town daylight and evening; it is more than a pre-club backdrop.

IbizaBALEARIC ISLANDS
An island of coves and late nights where the quiet version is every bit as good as the famous one.
Ibiza does not have to mean clubbing for four days. Use Ibiza Town for atmosphere, choose a quieter coast for daytime, and decide how much nightlife you actually want rather than letting it decide the trip.

THE COUSIN'S LENS
Look beyond the postcard. The best part of a place often begins one street, one hour or one trail later.
THE COUSIN'S BLUEPRINT
How I'd shape
the trip.
Enough structure to remove friction. Enough freedom for the destination to surprise you.
Chase one cove
Choose a beach and stay. Island-hopping by car is not the same as relaxing.
SEAPick your night
If nightlife matters, choose one good night and build the next morning accordingly.
NIGHTWHERE TO BASE YOURSELF
Pick the mood
before the hotel.
Your base changes the entire trip. Choose for the way you want the morning, the road and the evening to feel.
Ibiza Town
Old town atmosphere, restaurants, marina and easy access to the island’s nightlife.
Santa Eulària
A calmer coastal base with good food and straightforward access to coves.
Sant Antoni edge
Useful for sunset and nightlife, but stay outside the loudest strip if you want sleep.

COUSIN'S
RULE
COUSIN'S
RULE
“The best Ibiza trip is the one where you choose the party, not the other way around.”
One proper night. One proper cove.
A SAMPLE RHYTHM
Not a checklist.
A way through.
Use this as the bones of the trip, then move things around when weather, appetite or curiosity has a better idea.
