How To Do Ibiza The Stylish Way, According To Vogue – British Vogue

Whether youre hoping to immerse yourself in sound baths, superstar DJ sets, the islands flourishing slow food movement or simply the sunshine, read Vogues guide to the places to know before you go.

Brand new for 2022, The Standard, which overlooks the castle in the Old Town, has already played host to bright young things like actors Florence Pugh, Sheila Atim and Will Poulter, and designers Maximilian Davis and Chet Lo. British Vogues own Rosie Vogel-Eades, global director of talent and casting, fell for the cute rooftop bar and pool when she checked in.

If youre looking to get away from it all rather than dive headfirst into the heart of the action, choose one of the islands charming agroturismos instead. Vogue contributor Pippa Vosper who is among the recently converted, having visited for the first time for a wedding this spring recommends Can Sastre (chic and quiet and with the rustic decor I hoped to find on the island), and has already earmarked Los Jardines de Palerm, a small boutique hotel in a 400-year-old finca in San Jos, for her next trip.

This summers most in-demand lunch tables are at Jondal on the south of the island, where you might spy Kate Moss at the next table as you tuck into your langoustine and fries, and El Silencio, where the kitchen is overseen by Michelin-starred chef Mauro Colagreco. (If you do score a reservation here, linger on after lunch its one of Ibizas best spots to watch the sunset.) Astore whose Kandy dresses in fruity shades have fans in Lila Moss and Florence Pugh also recommends long-standing favourite Es Xarcu, and further inland, La Paloma and Cana Pepeta. Interiors enthusiasts should check out Amalur and Macao in Santa Gertrudis, and make time to hit up the boutiques in this pretty village afterwards.

Ibiza is also awash with less sceney (and, lets face it, less expensive) spots for a long, lazy and low-key lunch. Head to Fish Shack at Talamanca for plump, fresh prawns and cold beer, says fashion features editor Laura Hawkins, who calls it a perfect palate cleanser after visiting Ibizas polished beach clubs. Elsewhere, authentic chiringuito Ses Boques is particularly beautiful and popular with locals, while El Chiringuito is a classic, according to Rosie Vogel-Eades. My favourite thing is the oyster shucker who walks from table to table, she says. I think hes been there for 22 years now, an absolute Ibizan legend!
