Hacienda Na Xamena, Ibiza

Na Xamena s/n, San Miguel, 07815 Na Xamena, Spain (show on map)

Perched 180 meters above the Mediterranean, Hacienda Na Xamena is a pioneering clifftop sanctuary in northern Ibiza. It was conceived by Belgian architect Daniel Lipszyc, who fell in love with the island’s raw beauty in the 1950s. When construction began in 1969, the remote site lacked roads, water, and electricity, making its completion a true feat of architectural ambition.

The hotel officially opened in 1971, eventually becoming Ibiza’s first five-star property in 1988. Its design remains deeply rooted in traditional white-washed Ibicencan architecture, perfectly integrated into the rugged terrain of the Es Amunts Natural Park. The property is famous for its cascading “Suspended Waterfalls,” a unique thalassotherapy circuit featuring multiple pools set at varying heights, offering an immersive experience that feels as if you are floating over the sea.

Beyond its wellness facilities, the resort offers a secluded escape from the island’s bustling party scene. Its tiered terraces provide what many consider the most spectacular sunset views in Ibiza. The atmosphere is one of serene, discreet luxury, attracting everyone from royalty to legendary filmmakers over the decades.

For those looking to explore, the hotel is just a short drive from the village of Sant Miquel de Balansat, known for its historic 14th-century fortified church. You are also close to the iconic Benirràs beach, famous for its evening drumming circles, and the fascinating Cova de Can Marçà, a series of ancient caves once used by smugglers.

Expert reviews

Frommers review:

“Located high on a promontory overlooking Na Xamena Bay northwest of Ciudad de Ibiza, this utterly beautiful hotel is precisely what every magazine art director dreams that Ibiza should be like. The rooms are spacious and flooded with light. The sea seems to be all around.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Ibiza.

Telegraph review:

“Hacienda Na Xamena was the first five-star hotel in Ibiza, earning this designation in 1988. Today, it’s still one of the island’s most romantic hotels, with unbeatable views of the Med and a buzzing restaurant now helmed by Michelin-starred Spanish chef Fran López.”

Very nice but wouldn’t return.

It was if you were staying in someone’s private villa which was nice. Rooms beautiful.

Not enough staff at poolside. Had to go look for staff to get a drink.
No sun umbrellas only netting but not all beds had this and it wasn’t effective anyway.
On first night in restaurant we sent back two main courses of fish one night (€45 each)as they were uncooked and inedible. Staff initially offered two free puddings (circa €15 each) in lieu.
I told the staff I expected the fish to be removed from our bill not a free pudding. The staff seemed perplexed and went away from our table.
Soon after a senior staff member called Noelle came over, apologised and said she would remove both fish courses from our bill.
A rather bizarre situation.

Perfect for a relaxing retreat

Gorgeous location overlooking the sea and in a rural setting. The pool and sun beds were all very private so it never felt overly busy.

Nothing, everything was perfect. The only thing I would say is the drinks and food are expensive, they have a captive audience as nothing really surrounds the hotel dining wise.

Nice place, amazing view

View was amazing, some of the staff was amazing, food in restaurant was very good

Some of the staff was uninterested and most annoying was the long explanation about tipping at the reception. Totally not 5 star service…

An unforgettable, special, incredible experience

An absolutely stunning place, amazing views, with a gorgeous pool and sunbathing areas. The bedrooms are beautiful with the most unreal views! Food was so tasty. The staff were amazing and so so friendly, they couldn’t do enough for you. The tour we were given on day 1 was so helpful. We loved everything about our whole stay and I have never said that about anywhere I have stayed before!

If I had to be super picky, I would just say the hotel is far away from anywhere else in Ibiza. But if you hire a car or take taxis, it’s absolutely fine.
Smart tv would be better in the room for when you want 30 minutes to chill out. Maybe a few more shaded areas around the pool.

The hotel was amazing great views and unreal facilities

I recently stayed at a hotel with a perfect location and stunning views. The facilities were unreal, especially the spa. The infinity pool overlooking the ocean was unforgettable, and the spa treatments left me feeling rejuvenated. The staff provided exceptional service, making my stay truly memorable. I highly recommend this hotel for a luxurious and relaxing getaway.

Great stay in quiet location

It was chilled place to stay , won't stay for long though as can't sit still for too long
Little gym around, swimming pools nice

The pool that is to go through spa and have to pay extra €40 each person that shouldn't be like that and service charge at the end of whole stay 10% should state or been told at the beginning
And can't go anywhere from the hotel so have to stay in and enjoy the views

Completely stress free relaxation

Everything !!!

The place was completely smoke free, but a guest tried a cheeky smoke and unfortunately passed through some of the vents in our room. Not necessarily the hotels fault but still frustrating

Hotel of dreams

The views and relaxation areas.
The restaurant was incredible.

The reception and spa staff didn’t have 5 star hotel welcoming and customer service. They need to have a more friendly and approachable attitude.

The PERFECT short trip!

Our stay at the hotel was just perfect. The rooms with the view, the pool area, the breakfast, the cinema room and the game room were exceptional! But I really have to give extra credit to the staff. Everyone was so nice, you really had the feeling, that the people are enjoying their job and really like having you at the hotel! Special thanks go to the customer relations who planned a whole suprise with me! Everything worked out and I had so little to do! We will definitely come back again!

Despite the dreamy atmosphere, the stay felt overpriced for the offerings provided by the hotel.

The hotel felt overpriced considering the amenities and services provided. The gym was basic and no spa for the price we paid.

Romantic Hotel with Beautiful Views and Staff

The ambiance, staff and environment were beautiful and peaceful. The rooms and view were perfect as well.

Staff contacted us twice during the night due to a noise complaint of furniture moving and loud noises. It was a misunderstanding because we weren't the ones making noise, we were basically enjoying the view and sleeping during those times.

Hotel Na Xamena has the most spectacular views on the island. The perfect retreat from the hectic nightlife of Ibiza

The location of Hacienda Na Xamena is absolutely breathtaking! We had a family room which had a separate twin room for the teenagers. Hotel staff were fantastic and willing to help with everything. Would definitely recommend hiring a car as it’s about 30-40 mins to Saint Antoni / Ibiza town. We booked hire car through the front desk and it was delivered to the hotel within 15 mins and was reasonably priced.

Pool bar felt overpriced and food was a bit average.
