SIX SENSES

The community celebrates as they soak up the island vibe poolside, meet up with an extended family of islanders

Inspired by the Ibizan culture of community, spirituality and celebration, in the hot season that prevails from May to October, the community celebrates as they soak up the island vibe poolside, meet up with an extended family of islanders or gather at night to embark together on culinary adventures, festival pop-up events and full moon dinners. During the cool season, from November to April, is when the community participates together in deep, spiritual experiences via a series of teaser weekends and longer stay retreats featuring yoga, cleansing and fitness.

Immersed in the bucolic ambiance provided by unspoiled caves and groves, Six Senses Ibiza epitomises the light, splendour and natural rhythms of the island so attractive to its visitors. Defined by the tactile, Finca-style aesthetic with its modern, sophisticated design and finish, the resort’s architecture is inspired by locally-sourced materials. The Farm at Six Senses Ibiza is a 400- year old agricultural estate and olive press where guests can participate in cultivating the abundance of organic produce supplying the resort’s restaurants, café and bars.

Six Senses Ibiza has become the first European showcase for celebrity chef Eyal Shani, his sublime culinary creations in line with the Eat with Six Senses guiding principles of organic, seasonal, nutritious and delicious and enjoyed on the long tables of the Farmers’ market as well as at other signature venues such as The Orchard; The Piazza; Farmacy Bar and Live Cave, complemented by Grow-your-own-veg; chef’s table and even cooking lessons at The Farm.

Echoing the natural, mellow, restorative tempo of the island

Echoing the natural, mellow, restorative tempo of the island, the Six Senses Spa houses both single and couple’s treatment room, steam room, hammam, and state-of-the-art fitness area, café and juice bar. The RoseBar offers an opportunity to roll back the years through a raft of healing and preventative longevity programmes that combines diagnostics, biohacking, nutrition and beauty treatments. In addition, there is an impressive, outdoor yoga deck and rooftop boxing ring. There also exists a programme of immersive retreats at the resort facilitated by Friends of Six Senses, visiting practitioners and partners.

Six Senses Ibiza provides an exciting new venue for the iconic Ibizan music scene at the shorefront, Live Cave music hotspot at the heart of the resort. Here is where to enjoy live shows, events, emerging artist sessions, and an expansive vinyl collection. Notably, the Live Cave features avant-garde technology from McIntosh and Sonus faber through a partnership with McIntosh Group. There is also a Cave Royale guestroom with a secret door leading to the Recording Studio for when creativity strikes in the middle of the night. Fashion is celebrated at Six Senses Ibiza at the Agora, an innovative concept in retail that is part entertainment, part education and part shopping experience. Curated by famous fashion editors Daniella Agnelli and Tiffanie Darke, it strives to tell a story in a series of chapters: Reduce, Recycle, Rent and Restore. Highlights of the store will be a “Live Magazine” experience, a “Cinderella Room” for dress-up nights as well as an intention tree for customers to remember the change.

An essential component of the Six Senses experience is Arts & Culture that allows guests to browse the resort’s galleries and the displays of Magnum photographers especially curated by Elaine Groenestein to reflect Ibiza’s quintessential themes. In addition to photography events and workshops, there is also a wide selection of fine prints available through the Magnum Gallery and an impressive library for guests to enjoy. reservations-ibiza@ sixsenses.com
