I have been travelling to Ibiza since I was 16 years old. I was even married there. And now, years later I continue travelling with my kids and husband to this beautiful island.
Ibiza might not be the first place that comes to mind when thinking of suitable destinations for kids. However, if you know your way around it is very child-friendly.
There are many playgrounds and great beaches with shallow crystal clear waters. Ideal for tiny people to dip in and restaurants that offer activities for kids or have a play corner.
When it comes to childproof accommodation it is not that easy to find villas with fenced swimming pools and baby gear but I keep looking. By the end of this month, The Little Voyager will most likely be able to offer a great childproof hotel.
Eating Out
Last week-end we went with the kids for lunch at La Paloma in Sant Llorenç, a little village in the north-central area of Ibiza. This place is an island classic. The food is delicious and it is the perfect spot to bring the kids. You’ll find a sweet little playground in their garden next to beautiful citrus trees and there is also enough space to kick a ball.
The menu at lunchtime (“Paloma Café”) is more basic. It offers a mixture of Mediterranean food with Middle-Eastern, Asian and North African ingredients. Always freshly prepared with ingredients from their own garden.
At night the menu offers very tasty and unique, fresh Italian cuisine made by Chef Prasuna. You won’t be disappointed!
As they say themselves, on their website, La Paloma is “a place to eat, talk and feel the love”!
Please note the restaurant gets very busy and during high season, it might be impossible to reserve a table, so make sure to book in advance.
On Saturdays, the wonderful Hippy market “Las Dalias” opens its doors and might be a great place to visit right before lunch at La Paloma. It is located in San Carlos not too far from Sant Llorenç.
