What is it about Ibiza that always manages to bring us together with our loved ones for unforgettable moments at the table?

Our land is one of the most attractive tourist destinations in Europe. Thousands of visitors arrive every year to enjoy its views, the smell of salt, the tastes of the Mediterranean and the night life. For some time, gastronomy has been finding in this island a place to shine, adding gastronomic tourism to the list of reasons to visit this beautiful island. Here you will find, not only the traditional flavors of Ibiza and Mediterranean cuisine, but also exquisite and innovative dishes.

8 exquisite restaurants to visit in Ibiza

Es Torrent

We cite this restaurant first because it is one of the most exclusive fish restaurants in the city, in a remote cove on the Bay of Porroig.

The menu includes starters such as “espardenyes” (sea cucumbers), sautéed squids and Galician-style octopus. Among the main dishes, you will be able to taste fish salmorra with a side of “a banda” rice, or the classical bullit de peix. The wine selection is vast and highly recommended for discerning tastes. This establishment enchants and delights all who visit.

Getting there requires a long trip, but it’s worth every minute. We recommend reserving your transportation in advance. During the summer, taxis in this area are scarce and relying on them can be a game of chance.

During your vacations, it's important to get the best out of every moment, and to this end, Dipesa Group is an ideal partner.

Camí de Balàfia

If you seek to value the simple things in life, we invite you to discover this restaurant. Here, the treasure is in the authentic taste of what is grown in our own lands, and the knowledge that every plate arriving at your table is infused with the sense of Ibizan family and decades of work.

We bring many of our clients to Balàfia, celebrities from around the world accustomed to luxury and fine dining, and not a single one has left the restaurant without feeling enchanted by the personal touch of Lina and her team, with a smile of total happiness. We bring them here because for Dipesa Group each trip is an opportunity to share with our clients the true essence of our land.

In Balàfia you can enjoy the best tomato and onion salad in the island, which you can follow with a choice among diverse cuts of meat (lamb leg or shoulder, pork cutlets, rabbit, pasture-raised chicken breast or thighs, beef tenderloin and entrecôte) with a side of exquisite french fries. All is grilled on a terrace surrounded by orange trees, perfect to recover from long stays on the beach.

S'Illa des Bosc

Few terraces in Ibiza have such spectacular views. Placed in the center of Platges de Comte, it offers a broad panoramic view of the Ses Bledes Islets, S’Espartar and S’Illa des Bosc. The sights will create a lifelong memory for you, regardless of the hour of your visit.

Its gastronomic offer is as distinctive as it is creative. We can highlight the Andalusian-style squids with chickpea flour, which are paired with parsley mayonnaise. Other spectacular options are the gazpacho, the “escalivada” with goat cheese, or the foie mi-cuit with pistachio powder, apple puree and apple dice. The rices are syrupy and potent. The desserts are elaborate and delicious.

It is important to note that this restaurant is on one of the most crowded beaches in Ibiza during the summer. The parking area is limited and taxis are not always available, either due to traffic or demand. The most advisable solution is to hire a transportation service beforehand, whether it is for a group or for individuals. This decision will allow you to experience the moment in freedom and absolute enjoyment.

Es Boldadó

The terrace and dining room of Es Boldadó are simply spectacular. It is located above the cliff of Cala d’Hort, facing the islets of Es Vedrà and Es Vedranell, making it a unique lookout point to watch the sunset. That is why our first recommendation is to make a reservation beforehand and request a table by the windows.

On the menu you can enjoy typical Ibizan marine starters: Steamed mussels, espardenyes (sea cucumbers) with garlic, sautéed squids, red shrimps grilled or with garlic. For the main dish, we cannot forget their great specialties: lobster stew, grilled fish, bullit de peix with “a banda” rice, guisat de peix, fish salmorra (a local recipe) wish with “a banda” rice, and Ibizan sucking pig.

Es Boldadó is one of those establishments that never goes without notice and, just like many others, arriving there can be a hassle. It’s in a rather crowded area with little parking, difficult to navigate on foot. And on peak hours getting a cab is nearly impossible. Reserving your trips in advance with a responsible company that is able to respond to unforeseen circumstances can be the key to fully enjoying the moment.

Oleoteca Ses Escoles

The Oleoteca Ses Escoles is a business where you can breathe the essence of Ibiza. Here, in addition to tasting a fabulous meal, you can browse its little shop of local products and buy souvenirs such as oils, wines, chocolates, jams, salt, liquors, perfumes, books, typical baskets and other handmade products from the Pitiüses. 

The establishment is located on the road from Santa Eulària to Sant Joan, in the old school of San Lorenzo, hence its name. The building is part of the facilities of the oil mill Miquel Guasch, one of the main producers of extra virgin olive oil on the island. The decoration is a dream, the areas are spacious and tastefully decorated. 

They offer a selection of flavors and typical recipes, with which they pay tribute to the Ibizan countryside, but always incorporating a creative touch. The menu is designed for all budgets, and although everything is very good, making it difficult to decide, we recommend ordering the ‘coca’ in one of its variants, such as eggplant and caramelized onion, trempó or sobrasada and mozzarella. The menu also includes a selection of grilled meats, with an excellent prime steak. Always ask for the suggestions of the day. 

Ses Escoles is a must for those who want to get to know the local Ibiza. Although the journey to get there is not difficult, it is a place you will want to visit without pressure and willing to let go of all responsibilities, something that our drivers understand and know how to manage perfectly in every private trip.

El Bigotes

This beach bar is one of the most picturesque, authentic and indispensable on the island. 

Do not expect a luxurious place, but one filled with history. It all began with its creator, Juan Ferrer, preparing a bullit de peix from time to time for his friends, using whatever he had just caught in his llaüt. Without expecting it, those small gatherings started growing crowded and so, for a small price, everyone has been able to enjoy an authentic fisherman's meal here for the last forty years. 

El Bigotes is a rustic shelter next to the shore of Cala Mastella, where they still cook with firewood and only two dishes can be tasted: At 12 noon, portions of fresh grilled fish and mixed salad, and at 2 pm bullit de peix with “a banda” rice.

The environment, the warmth of its cooks and the freshness of the products you are tasting, invite you to understand the beauty of the simple. Although getting here requires a long journey, with a dirt road entrance that is not in the best conditions, in Dipesa Group we always recommend it and bring those who ask us, because the experience is worth the trip.

Sa Nansa

Sa Nansa is considered one of the most relevant fish restaurants on the island. In 2015 it was chosen as one of the 100 best restaurants in Spain in the gastronomic contest Madrid Fusión, and it always appears among the best rated restaurants in Ibiza on Tripadvisor.

Although they have a selection for the carnivorous, you really want to come here to eat fish. Among their fixed starters are marinated salmon, red tuna marinated in lemon, grilled red shrimp, sautéed squid or vegetable and shrimp tempura. If the suggestions of the day include fish roe, be sure to ask for it. 

Then, for the main dish, bullit de peix with “a banda” rice or fideuá, fish and seafood paella, brothy fisherman’s style rice, paella “de ciego”, grilled fish (with or without seafood), “borrida” (ray fish stew) and Sa Nansa style cod. We assure you that, regardless of what you order, it will be a feast. 

This restaurant is very close to the Paseo Marítimo de Eivissa and the Pachá Hotel. It is very easy to get in and out, so it can be perfect to combine with your visit to the city of Ibiza when you schedule your private transport service. You can even visit upon arrival at the airport or right before leaving.

Sa Caleta

Arriving at the small beach of Es Bol Nou and finding a wooden shelter with an authentic seaside atmosphere, in contrast with a terrace open to the beach and a beautiful garden set among pine trees, is already reason to smile. 

Sa Caleta is a unique place with a very broad menu. It has starters such as espardenyes (sea cucumbers), fried Ibizan fish or grilled sardines. To continue, you can order the tasty grilled seafood, a bullit de peix, a lobster or stew, or a grouper stew. To top off the feast, it is essential to try the Café Caleta, a variant of the Galician “queimada”, invented in Ibiza half a century ago. 

This restaurant can be reached from the airport, following the road that runs along the coast of Sant Josep. This is the reason many of our clients ask us for private transfers here, just after getting off the plane and before arriving at their place of accommodation. 

Vacations are days for enjoyment and freedom, let us at Dipesa Group take care of your arrivals and departures, so you can experience the essence of Ibiza.

Visiting Ibiza is synonymous with pleasure, and these establishments will add special moments to your experience.

The advantages of hiring Dispesa Group for team transportation in Ibiza

Ibiza is an incredible destination to work in. Not only for the beauty of its landscapes, but because it offers all possible comforts.

In winter, it is characterized by its natural environment, excellent temperatures and the possibility of enjoying the simple things in life; in the summer, by the distinctive bustle of this period, with all of its great luxuries and experiences.

But since we know the destination is not everything when the goal is to work, we share the 3 greatest advantages of having private transportation in Ibiza:

1. Punctuality

Making sure that all team members arrive on time is the basic premise for a fruitful day of work. We are aware of this, which is why we have at your disposal a fleet of mini buses, buses and private cars to secure all necessary transportation.

2. Time optimization

Working on the road, discussing progress and responding to unforeseen events, is only possible when you have a responsible and discreet driver on the wheel. For this reason, we have an excellent process for selecting and training our drivers, with a full-time team that is an integral part of our Dispesa family.

3. Contingency management

It is normal in this sort of work environment for plans and agendas to suffer changes. That is why at Dispesa Group we have a team that is always ready and willing to solve problems that come up and take charge of uncomfortable and untimely eventualities for our clients.

A private transportation service is the best option to benefit from an intense and successful day of work, and at Dispesa Group we are committed to offer the best transport experience in our home, Ibiza.

Living the summer season, moving all kinds of people between different parts of Ibiza is a very effective way of getting to know the island and all its ins and outs. Ibiza is a seasonal destination, and our transport services have their peculiarities. And only those who are willing to live with involvement, enjoyment, and curiosity will know how to take advantage of it.

This article is for those willing to serve and offer the best of themselves to others. For those who drive responsibly, that kindness is their language of communication. This is an article for those who want to be part of our Dipesa Group family and are in our selection process.

Discover here what the life of a Dipesa Group driver consists of.

The work of a Dipesa Group driver begins the day before making your transfers. Through the corporate mobile app, you must consult each of the services to be carried out the following day (normally, they range between 5 and 10). In this way, you can anticipate any unforeseen event with the agreed times, the location of the collections, the assigned vehicle, etc

Knowing the schedule of the first transfer, the driver must take into account the time necessary to reach our facilities, pick up his awarded vehicle and reach the origin of his first service. This can be a hotel, a villa, a ship, or the airport.

There is no stipulated minimum advance time to arrive at our facilities before the first service is performed, but arriving late to pick up a client or not being strictly punctual is a luxury that we cannot afford. It is always better to go early to avoid unforeseen events.

Before driving to any destination, the first step is to perform a breathalyzer test. It is the only way that the vehicle key assigned to them can be released, and it is a requirement for all DIPESA GROUP drivers. We are proud to say that we are the only transport company in Spain with this innovative system we implemented in 2014.

Once the key is released, the driver must go to the assigned vehicle. Before starting the journey, he must check that everything is in perfect condition. The car must be clean and refueled from the day before, but the driver will regularly check oil levels, tire pressure, cleanliness, etc.

As the work day progresses, the driver must report on time according to the expected pick-up times at each location. The corporate mobile app will be your work tool. Communication with the offices will always be available for logistical support and last-minute unforeseen solutions.

The time between each of the services can be managed by each driver as he considers the important thing, after all, to comply with punctuality in each of the services assigned to the driver.

At the end of the day, each driver must go to our facilities to refuel the vehicle and return it in perfect condition. In this way, the next partner will also be able to perform a service in optimal conditions.

The job of a driver at Dipesa Group may seem simple, but the driver's way of playing plays a crucial role in each journey. Dipesa Group is a family business with more than 30 years of experience. We are characterized by our dedication to service, discretion, and professionalism as differentiating elements.

Achieving this quality standard is a task that requires, in many cases, patience and empathy, and this is the reason why we have a rigorous selection system and offer our drivers training and advice before the start of the season.

Last but not least, we must highlight that the job of a driver in Ibiza goes at the same pace as the summer season on the island, which is experienced differently.

This beautiful job offers the possibility of being part of a long-term work team, which introduces you to the idiosyncrasies of different nationalities and cultures and provides the best views and enjoyment of a unique natural paradise. But we are not going to hide that it is well paid because it is a job that requires involvement and time availability.

The schedules are not always easy to reconcile with our moments of leisure, the days of the pressing sun can be long, and although the driving times are short, with the months, the fatigue or the stress of the road can take its toll on our kindness, sympathy or mood.

The honesty with which we refer to our jobs may sound atypical. Still, at DIPESA GROUP, we are known for being transparent with our employees and offering them the best conditions within our means. That is why so many of us have carried the brand on our chest for years, and many have even been passed down from generation to generation by this company.

For those who, even with the bad and the good, feel attracted to be part of this experience, at DIPESA GROUP, we are always looking for new profiles. So we invite you to fill out the form and tell us the best of you. 

THANK YOU for your interest and for reading this far!

We who live in Ibiza know that, upon summer’s end, our lives return to a tranquil routine, and days become more calm. However, many get the wrong idea. Things may be calmer in summer, but there is always much to celebrate on this island.

We have dinners and parties to celebrate the end of the season, the arrival of Christmas, New Year’s eve, important anniversaries, sporting events… and we could go on and on.

It is important to prepare for such occasions because being organized guarantees a good experience. That is why, at DIPESA GROUP, we want to let you know about a simple solution for your travels on the island.

Using a professional transportation service always eliminates risks, such as losing your way, choosing a less-than-ideal route, or simply arriving late. It also helps you enjoy the moment to the maximum. Nothing beats celebrating when your only duty is having a good time!

Advantages of traveling with a private chauffeur, for groups and events in Ibiza
