Ibiza may be a small island, but it’s full of surprises. Stretching just 40 kilometres from north to south, it offers all kinds of places to enjoy a holiday filled with adventures and unforgettable experiences. But where should you stay if what you’re really looking for is peace and quiet?<\/p>\n

Without a doubt, the north of Ibiza is one of the best places to stay<\/strong>. With its crystal-clear coves, beautiful natural landscapes and charming villages full of that unmistakable island je ne sais quoi<\/em>, it’s the perfect destination for anyone looking to slow down and embrace the Mediterranean way of life.<\/p>\n

Join us as we explore some of the most beautiful corners of Ibiza’s quieter side and discover why the north of the island could be the perfect choice for your next holiday.<\/p>\n

North Ibiza: Nature, Beautiful Coves and Peaceful Surroundings<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the greatest attractions of northern Ibiza is its natural beauty. Much of this area forms part of Els Amunts<\/strong>, an extensive protected natural area located mainly within the municipality of Sant Joan de Labritja.<\/p>\n

Here, you can enjoy hiking, cycling routes and leisurely walks through Mediterranean forests, stopping along the way to admire the scenery or cool off in one of the island’s crystal-clear coves.<\/p>\n

This is a different side of Ibiza, far from the crowds, where you can still find little corners that seem untouched by time.<\/p>\n

But beyond its walking trails and outdoor activities, this part of the island is also home to some wonderful villages that are well worth exploring. Places that capture the true beauty of the Mediterranean and look just like the picture-perfect, authentic Ibiza we all imagine.<\/p>\n

Santa Gertrudis: One of Ibiza’s Most Charming Villages<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Santa

Santa Gertrudis Ibiza<\/p><\/div>\n

Although located in the centre of the island, Santa Gertrudis is one of those places you simply shouldn’t miss during a holiday in northern Ibiza.<\/p>\n

Life in this lovely village revolves around its pedestrianised square, surrounded by restaurants, ice cream parlours and small independent shops that the whole family will enjoy.<\/p>\n

One place that deserves a special mention is Can Costa<\/strong>, famous for its delicious sandwiches. Simple, traditional and absolutely unforgettable. One of those little experiences that reminds us you don’t need luxury to enjoy the best of Ibiza.<\/p>\n

Sant Miquel de Balansat: A Taste of Ibiza’s History and Traditions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just a few kilometres from Santa Gertrudis lies Sant Miquel de Balansat, a small village in northern Ibiza that’s definitely worth a stop.<\/p>\n

Its main attraction is its fortified church, perched on a hill with lovely views of the surrounding mountains and countryside.<\/p>\n

The church is one of Ibiza’s most interesting examples of defensive religious architecture. For centuries, as well as being a place of worship, it provided shelter for local residents during pirate attacks.<\/p>\n

And if you’re visiting Ibiza in summer, Thursday afternoons may bring the opportunity to watch a performance of ball pag\u00e8s<\/strong>, Ibiza’s traditional folk dance, in the church square.<\/p>\n

It’s a wonderful way to experience the island’s cultural heritage and discover traditions that have been passed down through generations.<\/p>\n

Sant Joan de Labritja: The Green Heart of Ibiza<\/strong><\/p>\n

Heading a little further north, we reach Sant Joan de Labritja, right in the heart of Ibiza’s green countryside.<\/p>\n

This small village has preserved its peaceful, old-fashioned charm. It’s the kind of place where you can wander without a plan, stop for a coffee and simply enjoy the relaxed atmosphere that makes the villages of northern Ibiza so special.<\/p>\n

Every Sunday, the village also hosts its popular artisan market, filling the streets with stalls selling handmade crafts, local food and music.<\/p>\n

A must-visit during your Ibiza holiday<\/strong>, whatever the time of year, and a lovely opportunity to discover the island’s more authentic side.<\/p>\n

Sant Carles de Peralta: Traditional Ibiza and Its Famous Markets<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Las

Ibiza tranquila, las dalias<\/p><\/div>\n

Our final village is Sant Carles de Peralta, another little Ibizan gem located in the municipality of Santa Eul\u00e0ria des Riu.<\/p>\n

Here, an essential stop is Bar Ca n’Anneta<\/strong>, one of the island’s most iconic bars, where we highly recommend trying their famous homemade hierbas ibicencas<\/em>, a traditional local herbal liqueur.<\/p>\n

Just a few minutes from the village, you’ll also find the famous Las Dalias Hippy Market<\/strong>, another must-see attraction during your next holiday in Ibiza.<\/p>\n

It’s a wonderful place where handmade crafts, music and the island’s unmistakable free-spirited atmosphere come together.<\/p>\n

Puerto de San Miguel: Where to Stay for a Peaceful Holiday in Ibiza<\/strong><\/p>\n

After exploring some of Ibiza’s prettiest villages, there’s one important question left: where should you stay to enjoy all these wonderful places without giving up the peace and quiet?<\/p>\n

Puerto de San Miguel is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in northern Ibiza.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This small bay, surrounded by mountains and pine forests, is the perfect base for enjoying the beach, exploring nature and discovering some of the island’s most beautiful spots without spending hours travelling.<\/p>\n

From here, you can visit beaches such as Benirr\u00e0s, explore the spectacular Cova de Can Mar\u00e7\u00e0<\/strong> or enjoy scenic walks along the coast.<\/p>\n

Its location also makes it easy to plan day trips to the villages we’ve mentioned before returning to the peaceful surroundings of the bay.<\/p>\n

At San Miguel Park & Esmeralda Mar Apartments<\/strong>, just a short walk from Puerto de San Miguel beach, you’ll find a variety of apartments, some with sea views, where you can enjoy your holiday at your own pace.<\/p>\n

Because, after all, that’s what holidays should be about: discovering new places, but also finding time to do absolutely nothing.<\/p>\n
