Tripplo’s hotel summary
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 22 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Guests score it 9.5 out of 10 — the average across the 13 hotels we list on Ibiza is 8.9.
- The hotel sits directly on the golden sands of San Vicente Beach, allowing guests to move between shoreline and pool without any transfer, framed by Ibiza's undeveloped northern coastline.
- The wellness area includes an indoor jetted pool, sauna, ice fountain and a dedicated massage cabin, giving guests a full circuit of hydrotherapy options beyond a standard spa.
- Sant Joan de Labritja is one of Ibiza's less developed municipalities, so guests wanting nightlife or town amenities within walking distance will need to plan transport.
- The schedule of shows, live music and dancing adds atmosphere but may not appeal to travelers who prefer a low-key evening by the coast.
