Hyde Ibiza

From the same Ennismore/Accor partnership responsible for brands like Hoxton, Delano, and Mondrian comes Hyde, an upscale boutique-hotel concern with a laid-back, bohemian vibe. And where better to stretch your laid-back, bohemian legs than Ibiza? Hyde Ibiza stands proud above the sands of the idyllic Cala Llonga Bay, and offers its guests a generous helping of seaside restoration, along with a side of the vibrant nightlife for which this island is so well known.

With 401 rooms and suites it’s a substantial hotel, but the in-room experience is more soothing than stimulating — organic materials and warm neutral tones strike a note of tranquility, and the style skillfully blends the modern boutique-hotel lines and rustic Balearic textures. Private balconies don’t hurt, either, especially ones with views of the mountains and the bay.

A beach club and three swimming pools (with occasional DJ sets) see to guests’ leisure needs; guided hikes, taking advantage of the mountainous surroundings, are a more active option. And no one goes hungry, either — Hyde Ibiza’s restaurants include Cuyo, a Mexican kitchen, along with a modern Japanese restaurant and a handful of casual venues by the poolside or down at the beach.
