Hotel Six Senses, Ibiza
Six Senses Ibiza, perched on the northern tip of the island in the secluded Xarraca Bay, is a masterclass in sustainable luxury. Conceived by architect and developer Jonathan Leitersdorf, the resort was designed to mirror the natural topography, using earth-toned materials and terraced structures that step gently toward the Mediterranean. It holds the distinction of being the first resort in the Balearic Islands to achieve BREEAM sustainability certification.
The property is deeply rooted in the island’s bohemian spirit, offering more than just high-end accommodation. Guests can explore an on-site organic farm, attend sound-healing sessions, or dive into state-of-the-art wellness programs at the Rose Bar. A standout feature is “The Beach Caves,” a vibrant space for live music and cultural gatherings that captures the creative energy of northern Ibiza.
Culinary experiences here are driven by sustainability, with menus crafted by renowned chef Eyal Shani. Much of the produce is sourced directly from the resort’s own gardens or local farms, highlighting the island’s natural abundance. The resort even features an “Earth Lab,” where guests can participate in workshops on zero-waste living and natural DIY products.
While the resort feels like a private sanctuary, it is perfectly positioned to explore the rugged beauty of northern Ibiza. Nearby, you’ll find the striking Moscarter Lighthouse, the tallest in the Balearics, and hidden gems like the sun-bleached fishermen’s huts at Cala Xuclar. Whether you’re paddleboarding to quiet coves or visiting the local artisan markets in San Juan, the location offers a peaceful alternative to the island’s more bustling southern party hubs.
Expert reviews
“Six Senses Ibiza is a place to truly rest, refuel, and reset. New arrivals enjoy a brief but energizing shamanic smoke-cleansing ceremony before floating down into the hotel proper, an earthy enclave peppered with swaying rattan lanterns and bamboo-clad roofs. The spa is spot-on, the infinity pool sublime, and guests can paddleboard or kayak from a ladder directly into the sea.”
Featured on CN Traveler’s Hotlist.
“Dip into the serene waters of Xarraca Bay while staying at Six Senses Ibiza, a 137-room hotel on the northern edge of the island. You could spend your whole time on the beach, but this relaxed luxury retreat aims to be a place for sustainability and wellness, too.”
“Nestled into the rocks in the much-loved bohemian north of the island, Six Senses Ibiza offers an oasis for luxe-conscious travelers. Considerately designed to blend into its surroundings, blink and you could miss it: this is an understated five-star gem with wellbeing and sustainability authentically at its core.”

Service is not good no management in place the way I saw it
The boutique
The thing was coordinated the staff were okay maybe because it's busy season but we've stayed there previously and it was completely different. I would not go again.

It was average
Liked our room and the setting the hotel is in
We just felt very underwhelmed. Felt like there wasn’t enough staff. Some staff were hard to understand. The dinner options were not good and one night could only go into one restaurant. We won’t be coming back

Comfortable but poor value for money
Very new, comfortable and plush
Overpriced due to high volume of block bookings which leaves only a small inventory of rooms directly bookable for which they massively overcharge.

Beautiful but not as Zen as portrayed
The property is beautiful and the design is great and has options for restaurants. Longevity clinic is also great and the boutique Agora is fantastic
The pool! Too busy very loud too many kids! Not enough sun beds for such a big hotel next to each other zero privacy. Generally there is more noise in the resort than what there should be considering it’s promoted as a zen place

Had we paid peak season prices, I feel we would have come away feeling quite disappointed.
A stunning bohemian property that truly encapsulates all that is Ibiza nestled in the beautiful hills in the north of the island. We had a deluxe sea view room which was extremely comfortable and beautiful designed. The spa is very nice, a little on the small side which could be problematic during peak season but offers a lovely steam room & Infa red sauna. My massage was very good. The homemade kaffir and health juices at breakfast were delicious.
We had hoped to enjoy the hike, yoga and meditation classes on offer but all classes were fully booked for all 3 days during our stay which was hugely disappointing and for many the main reason to stay at this hotel. I would advise anyone booking this hotel to download the hotel app in advance and pre book all your classes. I would also advise the same for the spa as very limited space available.
Queuing for a table at breakfast was a little surprising as the hotel only appeared to be at 50%ish capacity. Although many aspects of breakfast were great sadly 2 out of 3 mornings my hot breakfast was cold and although the service was very friendly it was rather slow.
Room was not cleaned on day 2 so requested a clean and fresh towels via the app and was advised house keeping were on the way. Housekeeping never came.
Mini bar and snacks were never restocked.

Overpriced and lack of service. At first it looks as good as instagram but under the covers it is average.
Food and nice room upgrade
Food was overpriced.
Breakfast area did not feel well designed. Most tables are inside, for an ‘island’ hotel half the point is to enjoy being outdoors.
No safe sea access although the hotel is on the water.
Service was patchy, with most waiters/waitresses seeming disinterested.
Constant music by the pool and over the top activities. We did the ‘pickling’ class, when the teacher had no interest in pickling. It felt very novelty and cheap.
Instead of the added on embellishments they would benefit from considering the basics.

Lovely, relaxing, pricey
The spa, service at pool, atmosphere, food quality. Very good with kids and accommodating.
Pool is not heated. Way, way, way overpriced food on site and for the price you are paying, you should have some more perks in the room. Ex- they gave a nice hat and beach bag- this should be complimentary. Who reuses a hat???

A high class luxurious restorative switch off from everyday life.

Great Place, Hotel and super cool staff.
super cool Staff
Mini bar is nothing a simple joke. that should be brought back to level of 5 Star immediately.

Incredible hotel and staff, however not worth the money spend, insane upselling though.
Amazing breakfast, a beautiful location with marvellous sunsets. The service was great, and there were good opportunities for relaxation, sport, baby sitting, etc.
Ridiculous upselling, after we had to pay a large price for the room already. Expensive water by the pool, and simply everything overpriced and marked up. Price value for money can not be justified. We could see a lot of signs of usage already on the hotel, for that price one expects perfection.

Pleasant and great food, but very remote and probably more ideal for couples than a family
breakfast was amazing, and the infinity pool is really nice. the rooms were comfortable and clean. it's in a beautiful location.
there is no beach to speak of, which was sort of a bummer, and even though they are welcoming to children this is really more of a resort for couples.

Beautiful luxury

Rooms a disappointment, other facilities good but not great. The double payment and having to wait for a refund is a dis
Beautiful location and beautiful set-up ito of outside and breakfast area.
The account was double paid and then I was told that it takes a few days to reverse the first payment. A disgrace.

Love the hotel and the vibe, would come again!
We love the six senses hotel vibes and estetics. Breakfast was amazing with nice views and the beach cave restaurant is a must for the sunset:) we also enjoyed the weekly activities
The beach is quite rough and the entry to the ocean not so easy, on the upside to that there are not so many people going to the hotel beach

Loves it but the last night was not handled a well as it could have been given the circumstances we had imposed on us

Lack of tennis

Paradise for soul
Fantastic stay in the North of the island with wonderful views and impeccable health dedicated theme. It is a perfect place to reconnect with yourself while immersing yourself in the luxury services that they offer.
Our room has been cleaned after 3 pm on 3 out of 4 nights that we were there. Even though we complained and asked for this to be managed better, we had to actively chase the team via app, phone and in-person until resolved. The team can do better st providing feedback on the raised issues.
Although breakfast is outstanding in some areas, a richer choice of veggies and vegan options.

Perfection - doesn't get any better.
The best hotel on the island. Luxury, classy, elegant, everything you could ask.
I had to leave, they wouldn't let me stay indefinitely!! 😢

stunning hotel, great food and wine, room was divine! wish it was adults only!!
everything was utterly amazing.
Kids, unfortunately it is very popular with people with kids under 5 which made it noisy - wish it was adults only!

Perfect place to relax
Location very good
I thought food & drinks served for breakfast were not very warm
Food also not very warm in the cave’s restaurant
23 May 2024
Fabulous hotel, think it is the best we have ever stayed in and we have travelled quite a bit.
Breakfast was like a marathon it just went on and on. Every diet catered for, with both menu choices and self-service, the location is beautiful with a wide terrace overlooking the bay. Staff could not be more friendly and helpful.
Cannot fault anything.

I will be coming back...
This is an amazing place for a restorative solo stay.

I usually don’t write any comments. But this time I have to say the stay is wonderful. I don’t understand why the score
Everything. Location, environment, room, staff.
Nothing. But if could consider the light for the woman to make up. Or a makeup mirror with the light will be appreciated. Because we plan to visit several times a year.

Perfect I will come back much longer

The staff particularly Lucas and Victor made an exceptional property sublime. Their attention and personal touches real
Fabulous rooms, communal areas and meticulous cleanliness, styling and quality.
Beach area was rocky and noisey due to proximity of the property’s generator however a good place to launch a morning swim in the sea

Absolute perfection. A perfect mix of wellness, health and relaxation. Would absolutely recommend and will be coming bac
Absolutely stunning architecture and views. The staff couldn’t do enough for us.
Not really a negative as we were happy being out of the way, but travelling to other areas of the island takes a little planning. As we were there out of season taxi’s aren’t as frequent as at the height of summer, if we were staying for longer than a long weekend we’d have hired a car.

Amazing view, great staff
The staff and the service was great. The sea view from the pool is wordless and the sunset is amazing.
There are some places in front of the beach you can stay and the view is incredible. They offer snorkeling too.
The gym is really big, very good equipments and there is a personal trainer at your disposal.
The room we stayed was really big, comfortable and well equipped.
The breakfast was really good.
They offer plenty of activities to do, from yoga to guided walking around the island.
At our first night we had a long wait to have dinner. There are 3 restaurants in the hotel, but 2 of them were closed. We were not informed about that and we ended up going to the closed restaurants. We waited for around one hour to have dinner on the only open restaurant.
There was a dog poop in the garden of our room. I believe it was there for a while and after two nights there the poop was still there. This was very disappointing.
One day at the pool we requested a bottle of wine and sushi, after one hour waiting we spoke to the waiter and they had forgotten to register our order.

Amazing place with the best staff!
The super friendly staff, the breakfast, the room (junior suite sea view) and the service!
We had a problem in the room with the water and reported it in the morning, problem could not be fixed eventually… but they offered a solution and we are looking forward to are next stay

I do not recommend
Unfortunately, all of these positive aspects were overshadowed by the fact that cash disappeared from my bag while it was left in the room. The only people who had access to the room during that period were housekeeping staff or the employee who entered to check the minibar. As a result, what should have been a wonderful stay ended with serious concerns about the security of guests’ belongings.
I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at Six Senses Ibiza was deeply disappointing.
During my stay from June 6 to June 9, cash disappeared from my bag while it was inside my room. The bag was only left unattended when we were at the pool during the daytime. I also personally observed a member of staff entering the room to check the minibar while we were away.
After carefully retracing everything that happened during our stay, I cannot identify any other realistic opportunity for the money to have gone missing.
What is most shocking is that this happened at a hotel that markets itself as one of the most exclusive luxury resorts in Ibiza. Guests paying thousands of euros per stay should not have to worry about the safety of their personal belongings inside their own room.
The missing money included both euros and Russian rubles. The incident has left me feeling extremely uncomfortable and has completely destroyed the sense of security and trust that a luxury hotel is supposed to provide.
I have requested that the hotel review key-card access records and security footage, and I hope a proper investigation is conducted. Until then, I cannot recommend this property to anyone who values the security of their belongings.
Beautiful location and design cannot compensate for a situation where a guest leaves feeling that money has disappeared from their room and receives no immediate answers.
Very disappointing experience.
