The tiny island of Formentera makes for an excellent day trip from Ibiza. With over 20km of beaches, Ibiza's sister isle is beloved as a more low-key, nature focused retreat. Right on the 7km long Mitjorn Beach, Gecko Beach Club (www.geckobeachclub.com) is one of the bigger hotels with great facilities. Gecko offers a good restaurant and fabulous cocktails, both served in the most stunning beachside location. Opened in 2012, Es Mares (www.hotelesmares.com) is a chic boutique hotel with a great spa. The property is perfectly placed to stroll around the charming little village of Sant Francesc. Situated on the world famous Illetas beach, Beso Beach (www.besobeach.com) offers really delicious food. Don’t miss the Carbiniere prawn paella or the chuleton, (one of the owners is from Galicia, the land of incredible Spanish beef.) After 7pm the tables are cleared away, sundowner mojitos are served and everyone starts dancing in the sand. Under the watchful eye of manager Alessandro, Chezz Gerrdi (www.chezzgerdi.com) serves wonderful Italian food on the Es Pujols side of Formentera. The restaurant offers stunning views back to Ibiza. Its menu offers super-thin and crispy pizza, exquisite pasta, inventive fish dishes and fabulous homemade ice cream. The restaurant is a great place for families.
