Stayed in playa den bossa in Ibiza and got the ferry over to Formentera- cost about 20 euros and took about 45 mins. Hired pedal bikes once we got there and pedalled to illetes beach. Absolutely outstanding! I will return here every time I take a trip to Ibiza now- the beach is beautiful and well worth the trip!!x More

Unfortunately, there everything was so hurting that I would not like to go there again. In playa de ses Illetes, prices are just crazy! It is unbelievable for me... More

Upon arrival at... More

Been there after seeing reviews and movies on Youtube. Completely shocked when I arrived. I thought the movies and pics were modified..but...surprise..the Paradise exists for real! It's breathtaking... quiet in May..so you can almost be alone on the beach, hot enough to catch some Sun. Divine! More
