Tell me about family friendly Ibiza.....

[kristymac1]

Thinking of heading out for the October half term, and would be very grateful if any of you lovely people could give me some pointers on areas to stay with a young family (daughter of 4) and just as important places definitely to avoid!

Thanks xx

Hi Kristymac1

My best friend is moving to Ibiza this month :(

I'm planning on heading out there too for half term.....for part of the week anyway.

I shall let you know if she has any ideas/info....she hasn't got children but I'm bringing my 5 year old son so was going to look into this myself.

Someone on another family hols thread mentioned a villa company called Coastline, which I had never heard of so had a look at their site and they cover Ibiza: http://www.coastline.co.uk/Islands/Ibiza/Villas

Ibiza is a great destination for families (in spite of what the general perception might be!), especially in late September and October when it's cooler and the club season has finished.

We've been going for years, including with our 2 little 'uns.

You could stay practically anywhere, but if you're going to avoid anywhere, I guess it should be San Antonio - it's the least family friendly.

Santa Eularia is great for restaurants. The East Coast is best for lots of beaches and proximity to big towns (Sta Eularia, Ibiza etc).

South coast (eg San Jose / Josep / Joseph) esp Cala Vadella are great beaches with views of Es Vedra and beach side restaurants with good food.

North Coast a bit remote with fewer beaches, but more fishing villages etc.

If you need more info but a slightly biased point of view (I think Ibiza is a terrific spot) let me know.
