Ibiza travel guide

Ibiza is home to a surprising amount of first-class eating establishments. Whatever your requirements - from the freshest fruits de la mer to a Thai banquet for ten - you can find it here

Grove thing
Elle McPherson's (and my) favourite restaurant is Bambuddha Grove. Situated off the main road to Santa Eulalia, the 'Meditterasian' menu is surprisingly sophisticated, although you can simply have a drink at the bar if you prefer. The ambience is relaxed, efficient and buzzing and the food is quite good value.

New religion
If you fancy splashing out, head for Sa Cappella. Situated in a beautiful old church, this is one of Ibiza's top restaurants serving Spanish and international cuisine, which is best enjoyed under the stars in the garden terrace.

Another level
S'Embarcador is a reasonably-priced Mediterranean restaurant in San Antonio Bay that offers dining on two floors with great open-air views of San Antonio. The clientele is young and the service can be rather slow, but when in Spain...

Jewel in the town
La Oliva is renowned for its paella and gets very busy at the height of the season, so you'd be wise to book in advance. Situated in picturesque Ibiza old town, the restaurant is a favourite of DJs and musicians and has become a very fashionable place to dine.
