Lovely
rural village in the centre of the island, 11 kms from Ibiza town, which
would take only 15-20 minutes to drive - enjoy the best of both worlds! The
area has long been a mecca for artists and you will find local galleries.
There are some boutiques style shops and even an auction house Casa Todo
where a monthly auction provides great entertainment. Santa Gertrudis has
long been a fruit growing area and evidence of this background can been
viewed in the decorated ceiling in the Esglesia de Santa Gertrudis. The
local café-bars in the town are popular with locals and tourists alike to
while away a few hours watching the world pass by the street side terraces. |

The
extraordinary landscapes and the well renowned nightlife of Ibiza
have given it international fame as a wonderful place for those who
love nature, sea or cities with a vibrant life style.
There is a group of architecturally impressive buildings in the
centre of Ibiza which has recently been declared a World Heritage
Site by Unesco.
Each place on Ibiza has its own special charm... It is an adventure
to discover the island's true secrets. For example, Santa Eulalia
has a pretty miniature town, and at its peak stands the Puig de
Missa, a splendid church which is worth a visit for its great views.
Another interesting place in Santa Eulalia is the little village of
San Carlos, the last hippy hideout on the island.
There are beaches of all sorts... San Jose is the biggest
municipality and has some of the most spectacular beaches. Also it
is an area where there have been important archaeological finds,
including the Phoenician site of Sa Caleta and the Punic site of Ses
Païses. |
