Cala Jondal, s/n, 07839, Illes Balears, Spain
If, for some reason, you only have time for one meal in Ibiza, it must be Jondal. Having mastered barefoot luxury, the white concrete entrance feels like a yoga studio or trendy friend’s beach bungalow. It opens up to a private beach cove where wooden tables are shaded by low hanging trees and a separate lounge and bar area is set into the rocks. The minimalist decor allows the simple food (and sweeping ocean views) to really shine. Get the catch of the day for the table and white asparagus to share, all washed down with something off the extensive wine and cocktail list.
Catering to tourists and locals alike, the crowd is a mix of couples, groups of friends and multi-gen families. Unlike many other restaurants or beach clubs on the island, you won’t find a loud DJ—music here is a light, tribal beat to accompany the crashing waves. Everyone on staff is beautiful and dons a uniform of bohemian chic, neutral linens, many of which can be purchased at a boutique on site (trust me, you’ll be inspired).
Whether you come to spend the entire day at the beach club or just pop in for lunch or dinner, reservations are a must. All seating is directly on sand, so plan to wear appropriate footwear.
