Party people: when to go to Ibiza?
 

Hi!

So next year we are finally planning to visit Ibiza. Any idea when to go? I read that there are way too many people in August. I'm thinking about late May - early June or September.. that's when the bigger clubs are opening/closing..

had fun :thumbsup

June is the perfect month. Been a few times in June and it's always been great.

July and most of August in Ibiza can be a nightmare. It's like a totally different place. And there seems to be more people that are cunts those months aswell.

September for the closing parties is usually fun aswell!

he's right ppl are fucked up. ya wanna have a good time ya best pack some heat.

pack a bowl too

Any time. I love it.

Just what I thought.. also some must things to do over there?
For starters I want to rent a car and see the whole Island, just like a did in Test Drive Unlimited 2 :D

Dont go in May season hasnt really started and it can still be cold. Last week in June or early September.

Great thanks

WTF does that mean ?

Clearly going to the wrong places :2 cents:

I hear the opening and closing parties are insane if you don't mind big crowds

i love ibiza, went there about 3 years ago and then again 2x this summer

if you want to be by the action/clubs, you need to stay in Sant Josep or San Antonio

other than the big cities, most of the rest of the island is countryside/rolling hills

anytime in the summer months, i dont think you can go wrong

I heard San Antonio is overrun with young douche bags and the clubs suck. Was that not the case?

The closing party period in September is my favorite period there.

Space for me is still hands down the best club on the island.
Have fun dude!

go to Ko Phangan

Just avoid the West End and you should be fine.

The clubs aren't the best on the Island by any means, but i've had more than a few amazing nights in them over the years.

So yeah i'd still say they were worth checking out. Again, if they aren't packed to the rafters then you can enjoy your night more. But that's the same rule for anywhere really...

Thanks for the link.. yeah we want to visit a few clubs, especially looking forward to carl cox.
Did you guys rent a car? If yes, then what company did you used?

bring your own girls and you'll be fine...ratio was around 70/30, the clubs reminded me of rocky point, mx a vacation spot where you have lots of wolf-packs of young guys looking to get laid on their vacation...i used to be one of those guys :)

it was funny actually, the entire time, there were at least 1-3 guys waiting until i stepped away to hit on the girl i was with, a few of them did it right in front of me

Avoid San Antonio at all costs! Unless you are a teenage beer & tequila drinker. It's a cheap shit-hole off a place overrun with British teenagers (I should know, I used to be one of them). Ibiza has sooo much more to offer.
And I'd also avoid August if you can.
There are a million apartments just like this you should look into.

Hm there isn't much going on on that FB page :)

I know. It's my friends and she isn't doing much with it anymore but it's just an example, but there are a huge amount to choose from. I also recommend you book early. Nice places go fast.

We should do a GFY party meeting on the island :)

Whenever Richie Hawtin is in town...

And what does early means? Also it's reasonable for two people to book an apartment? I mean I would love to book a nice villa and everything, but for two people the costs are pretty high :) We usually just go to hotels (booking them for ourselves - if going to EU, or going through an agency - if going outside EU).

Unless you plan on bringing lots of people back to your place for after parties I wouldn't bother with any fancy/expensive accommodation. It's Ibiza, you're barely going to be at home :-)
Book early as in: Once you have decided when you're going and which part of the island you are staying, find an apartment or hotel and book it now! Some folk book a season in advance so the groovy stuff goes early. Also check out airbnb.com

We usually go last-minute with travel agencies, but maybe this time we'll have an exemption.
Which part of the Island do you like the most?
Also did you rent any cars while staying there?

Gotta try my new dance moves there.

I like Botafoch and Ibiza town. Botfoch is right by Pacha & has an awesome beach and marina a short walk away. It's also a short drive to Ibiza town
I def recommend you hire a car if you want to see the Island. There are lots of taxis (legal and illegal) available but having a car gives you sooo much more freedom to explore. Check out beaches like La Salinas, Playa Den Bossa and Cala Mastella. Truly epic.

And what company did you used for car renting?

Could be dangerous but i'd be up for that! :pimp

Think it was Europcar. Best thing is to pick a car up from the airport. But book in advance to avoid the queues and any disappointment on availability. There are a few car hire comps to pick from.

I lived there for 2 years , June was the best time, its busy but not too busy, also its hot but not too hot. .

Great thanks for the answers guys ;)

It is the British part of the deal. They tend to be everywhere but it is worse in San Antonio. The town is cooler though in that it is smaller and more quaint. You then have to drive every night to get to Pacha or wherever.

too old for that!

Like Ibiza all time of the year but summer is just best i guess!

been there in 98, closing week is sick...
