Radio ME IBIZA Rooftop Bar, ME Ibiza Hotel
Santa Eulalia
An adults-only roof terrace that's as classy as one might expect from the five-star ME Ibiza hotel, with panoramic views and chill-out music to relax and unwind you. At night, enjoy a sumptuous international fusion menu along with cocktails to match the food, as you watch yachts bobbing on the crystal waters of the bay. In fact the cocktails are one of the bar's strong suits, designed to whip up emotions, create sensations and offer aromas and flavours you won't forget. A top choice for sophisticates.
Malecón, Cubanito Ibiza Suites
San Antonio
At the Cubanito Ibiza Suites, catch one of the best sunsets on the island from the Malecón rooftop terrace, serving Havana rum-infused cocktails and playing a Latin soundtrack. Styled and inspired by Miami's Little Havana, this retro adults-only hotel is a real treat. Plus on Tuesdays and Saturdays go and listen, then boogie along to live Latin DJ sets at the special Salsero and Malanguea nights.
The Ninth, Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza
Playa d'en Bossa
Situated on the island's longest beach is the Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza, where the star of the show is the rooftop sky lounge, The Ninth, a massively extensive area with decor that's intended to mimic a boat. Indeed, you feel like you are on one or suspended in the heavens with the sheer height of the place and its impressive 360-degree views taking in Ibiza's old town and the salt flats of Las Salinas. Go for cocktails or champagne, curl up on a sofa and literally live the high life.
Roof Top Nine, Sol House Ibiza
San Antonio Bay
Party in style at Sol House Ibiza right above Playa Pinet beach from the Roof Top Nine terrace. Enjoy the spectacular sight of San Antonio Bay, especially good at sunset, when the daily DJ sessions start, giving you sweet, scintillating sounds to suit the vibrant mood. Decked out in cool white with lines of sunbeds and stylish seating, this place attracts a mainly younger crowd. We love sitting with our feet in the infinity pool, whilst sipping on a mojito.
Sky Bar, Hotel MiM Ibiza Es Vivé
Figueretas
The attractive art-deco Hotel MiM Es Vivé, close to Figueretas's cosmopolitan beachfront is style personified, with design awards to its name too. Head to the Sky Bar, an oasis of calm with wooden flooring, comfy sofas and large day beds, all in glistening white and looking out over the sapphire sea. DJs provide chill-out beats, there's a brand new bar and indeed everything to make you enjoy laid-back luxury.
Up Sky Society, Ushuaïa Beach Hotel
Playa d'en Bossa
Magical views of the beach and Formentera, a cool and chic clientele plus some of the best cocktails around are what characterises the Ushuaïa Beach Hotel's huge rooftop bar. If you are partied out and want some respite from the adjacent club, this is the ideal spot and you can still catch the action from up above. When you go, you simply must try the signature Ushuaïa Red cocktail or maybe sip one of the many champagnes on offer. Ideal for hot summer nights with a nice breeze.
The Rooftop Bar, Aguas de Ibiza
Santa Eulalia
Right on the seafront is the luxurious five-star Aguas de Ibiza Hotel. You'll love the design of The Rooftop Bar where you get a combination of sea breeze and great cocktails like the Romero y Julieta or the Cocojito transport you to a world of fabulousness . A pergola-like bar, ceramic floor and trendy Acapulco chairs complete the picture. This year, look out for brand new rooftop upgrades too.
