Long, languid days, icy cold cocktails, comfortable sun beds and smooth chill out sounds – that’s what Ibiza is all about. The good news is, now the clocks have gone forward, the many stylish beach bars peppering Ibiza’s coastline have been busy sweeping off the cobwebs and are officially back in business. In fact, we hear quite a few have been taken over by some very high-profile new owners, but no doubt our very own Miss W will spill the beans on that gossip – all in good time of course!
With the Easter long weekend rapidly approaching and direct flights making a beeline for the island (thank you Ryanair!) plus plenty of Ibiza hotels and Agroturismos offering special pre-season deals, now is the time to indulge in the real Ibiza experiences, from gastronomic delights and opening fiestas to observing traditional cultural celebrations, you’d be an April fool NOT to experience Ibiza this month… |

Atzaro Spring Opening Fiesta: 22/03/09
It’s spring and the beautiful people (with their beautiful kids and equally as beautiful pets) are sipping chilled white wine and snacking on sushi beneath the sun in all its glory while the sounds of DJs spinning classic Balearic afternoon tunes carry along the airwaves. It’s Sunday, it’s Ibiza and therefore we must be at Atzaro…

Juanito in the 21st Century
If Jesus had been born in Ibiza, the inn with no crib for a bed would most certainly have been Juanito's. It is the penultimate eatery on the San Juan road, known as restaurant road, starting with the newer expat imports of Bambuddha, Ocho and Aura and ending with a cluster of prehistoric ultra Ibicenco grill restaurants.
Into this ultra Ibicenco scene steps Matt Jones, founder of London’s organic Flour Power City. Using an interesting new marketing technique called ‘Shhhh, Don’t Tell Anyone We’re Open’ he reopened Juanito’s this week. The secrecy technique failed however and the restaurant was full…
