Staying at Coral Star Hotel Ibiza? Our Local Guide to the Best Beaches, Walks, Food & Things to Do Nearby

Choosing where to stay in Ibiza can make a huge difference to your holiday.

If you've booked Coral Star Hotel Ibiza, you've chosen a four-star hotel in San Antonio Bay that's well positioned for enjoying beaches, sunsets, restaurants and some of the west coast's best-known attractions. The hotel has undergone a full refurbishment and caters for families, couples and groups looking to enjoy this part of Ibiza.

We've lived in Ibiza since 2006 and have spent years helping visitors discover the island beyond the hotel gates. Through Massage Beach Ibiza, we've worked with hotels across different parts of the island, so the recommendations below are the same sorts of places and experiences we'd suggest to our own friends and family.

Whether you're researching Coral Star Hotel before travelling or you've already checked in and are wondering what to do tomorrow, we hope this guide helps you discover a little more of Ibiza.

Why Coral Star Is a Good Base for Exploring San Antonio Bay

One of Coral Star's biggest advantages is its location.

You're away from the busiest part of central San Antonio, but you're still close enough to enjoy its marina, famous Sunset Strip and nightlife whenever you want it.

Closer to the hotel, you'll find beaches, restaurants, coastal walks and sunset spots that are easy to enjoy without spending half your holiday in taxis.

Port des Torrent is particularly convenient. Coral Star's own hotel information places the beach at approximately 0.6 km away, so it's easy to swap the pool for the sea whenever you fancy a change.

Walk to Port des Torrent Beach

If you're looking for an easy beach day without organising transport, head to Port des Torrent.

It's a sheltered sandy cove with a much more relaxed feel than some of Ibiza's larger beaches. The bay works particularly well for families, but it's equally pleasant if you simply want somewhere to swim, relax and have a change from the hotel pool.

During the summer you'll usually find pedalos and other watersports available around the beach, so you can make the visit as active or as lazy as you like.

If you've brought a snorkel, it's worth exploring around the rocky edges of the bay as well. The water around the rocks can be clearer than directly over the sand and you'll often see plenty of small fish.

Sometimes the best holiday days are the easiest ones, and a morning at Port des Torrent followed by a relaxed afternoon back at Coral Star is difficult to beat.

Walk Along the Coast Towards San Antonio

If you enjoy walking, don't assume you need transport every time you want to explore San Antonio Bay.

You can follow much of the coastline towards San Antonio on foot, passing small beaches, sea views and plenty of places to stop for coffee, lunch or a drink along the way.

You don't have to walk the entire route. Even exploring part of it is a lovely way to see more of the bay.

One practical tip if you're travelling with young children: the whole route isn't completely pushchair-friendly. There are sections where you may need to join the road briefly, so we'd recommend it more as a proper walk than a continuous seafront buggy route.

Visit Kumharas for Sunset

If you'd like somewhere close by for an Ibiza sunset, Kumharas is one of our favourite recommendations.

Situated in Cala de Bou overlooking San Antonio Bay, it combines sunset views with cocktails, food, music and a relaxed bohemian atmosphere. It's popular with locals as well as visitors and works just as well for couples as it does for families.

We'd recommend arriving before sunset rather than turning up at the last minute. Find somewhere comfortable, order a drink and enjoy the atmosphere as the light changes across the bay.

It's a much easier evening from Coral Star than travelling across the island purely to see the sunset.

Take the Water Taxi into San Antonio

One of our favourite ways to reach San Antonio is by boat rather than by road.

The seasonal water taxi operates across San Antonio Bay, with stops including Port des Torrent and the area around Hotel Amàre / Playa Bella, before connecting with San Antonio. The current operator lists a daily Port des Torrent service during the season, although times and fares can change, so check the latest information before you travel.

For children, the boat journey itself can become part of the day.

Instead of sitting in a taxi, you're out on the water looking back across San Antonio Bay, and when you arrive you're already in a great position to explore the marina and town.

If you're staying at Coral Star without hiring a car, this is one of the most useful things to know.

Stop at El Pan de Lexa for a Croissant or Cake

Once you're in San Antonio, one place we'd genuinely recommend seeking out is El Pan de Lexa.

It's a small French-style artisan bakery with its own workshop, producing croissants, pastries, breads, fruit tarts, éclairs, quiches and cakes.

It's not the sort of place most package-holiday visitors automatically discover, which is exactly why we've included it.

If you appreciate a proper croissant, good bread or just want to pick up something sweet while you're exploring San Antonio, it's well worth the detour.

Try Cool Café for Breakfast

Another breakfast recommendation we regularly give is Cool Café in Cala de Bou.

It's known for breakfasts, healthy dishes, juices and good coffee, with a relaxed terrace atmosphere.

If you've been eating breakfast at the hotel every morning and fancy a change, this is the sort of place where you can take your time over coffee and start the day at a slower pace.

Don't Miss Dodò Gelato

If you like ice cream, make a note of Dodò Gelato.

It's an artisan gelateria in the San Antonio Bay area and one of those places locals will happily make a detour for. The ice cream is made in-house, with a rotating selection of flavours that goes well beyond the usual tourist-resort choices.

Our advice is simple: if you're nearby, go.

Holiday ice cream doesn't need to be complicated.

Escape the Hotel for a Meal at Relish

Hotel dining is convenient, but after several days it's sometimes nice to eat somewhere completely different.

Relish Restaurant & Pool Bar is a good local option in San Antonio Bay, with a broad international menu alongside burgers, steaks and its particularly popular Sunday roast. Their own current menu recommends booking the Sunday roast in advance.

It's especially useful if someone in your group fancies familiar food or simply wants a relaxed meal away from the hotel.

Experience the Famous San Antonio Sunset Strip

Even if you're not coming to Ibiza for the nightlife, we'd recommend experiencing the Sunset Strip at least once.

Café Mambo and Café del Mar are two of Ibiza's best-known sunset venues, and Café Mambo continues to host sunset sessions and visiting DJs throughout the summer.

You can, of course, book a table and make an evening of it.

But you don't have to.

One of the easiest ways to enjoy the atmosphere on a smaller budget is to find a spot along the waterfront rocks nearby, take some drinks or snacks with you where appropriate, and watch the sunset from there.

You'll still experience the atmosphere of the Sunset Strip and hear the music carrying across from the bars without needing to commit to a sunset table or minimum spend.

If you do choose to book Café Mambo itself, be aware that its sunset tables currently operate with minimum spends after 6pm, so check the current arrangements when booking. citeturn985487search25

Things to Do Near Coral Star Without Hiring a Car

One of the useful things about staying at Coral Star is that you can have a surprisingly varied holiday without renting a car.

You could spend a morning at Port des Torrent, walk along part of San Antonio Bay, catch the water taxi into town, stop at El Pan de Lexa, pick up an ice cream from Dodò Gelato, enjoy sunset at Kumharas and still have plenty of time to relax at the hotel.

If you do hire a car for a day, Cala Bassa and Cala Comte are two west-coast beaches we'd put high on the list.

But don't feel as though you need to spend your whole holiday driving around Ibiza.

There's plenty close to Coral Star to keep you busy.

Take Some Time for Yourself Too

Family holidays can be brilliant, but they aren't always particularly relaxing for the adults.

Sometimes everyone else is enjoying themselves and you suddenly realise you've spent three days organising meals, sun cream, towels, swimming and where you're going next.

That's exactly when taking an hour for yourself can make a huge difference.

Massage Beach Ibiza provides professional massage, facial and nail treatments at Coral Star Hotel Ibiza, with options for adults and children.

Rather than waiting until the end of your holiday, we'd recommend checking treatment availability early in your stay.

Even better, if you already know you'd like a treatment, book before you travel. Our operating days can vary throughout the season, and popular appointment times can fill, so the live booking calendar is always the best place to see current availability.

Massage, Facial and Nail Treatments at Coral Star Hotel Ibiza

Our treatment menu gives you the option to relax without organising another journey away from the hotel.

Available treatments include:

• Relaxation massage

• Marine Deep Tissue Massage

• Back, Neck & Shoulders Massage

• Children's massage

What If the Weather Changes?

Even in Ibiza, not every day is guaranteed to be perfect beach weather.

If you wake up to clouds, use it as an excuse to do something different.

Take the water taxi into San Antonio and explore the town. Have a long breakfast at Cool Café. Pick up something from El Pan de Lexa. Browse the shops and marina. Or take advantage of the cooler weather to walk more of the coastline.

It's also a good opportunity to book a massage, facial, manicure or pedicure and spend some proper time relaxing.

A cloudy morning doesn't have to mean a wasted holiday day.

Popular Massage Treatments in San Antonio

Every treatment is adjusted to your preferences, comfort and desired pressure.

Relaxation Massage

A relaxation massage is ideal if you want to slow down, switch off and enjoy some peaceful time during your holiday.

It is particularly popular with guests who have had a busy journey, several late nights or a packed holiday itinerary.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage uses firmer pressure to work on areas of muscular tightness and tension.

It can be a good choice after travelling, exercising, dancing or spending long periods sitting on a flight.

Let your therapist know the level of pressure you prefer and whether there are any particular areas you would like them to concentrate on.

Back, Neck and Shoulder Massage

A shorter back, neck and shoulder treatment is useful when you want targeted attention without using too much of your holiday time.

This treatment is frequently chosen by guests experiencing stiffness from travelling, poor sleep or carrying luggage.

Facials and Beauty Treatments

Depending on your chosen location, you may also be able to book:

• Professional facial treatments

• Manicures

• Pedicures

• Gel nail treatments

• Children’s treatments at suitable family locations

Availability varies between hotels, so check your chosen booking page or message us before making your plans.

Relaxing Things to Do in San Antonio During the Day

A massage can be one part of a slower and more relaxing day in San Antonio. Here are a few other ways to unwind.

Walk Along San Antonio Bay

The waterfront promenade around San Antonio Bay is ideal for a gentle morning or evening walk.

You can enjoy views across the water, stop for a coffee and take your time exploring the coastline without having to plan a major excursion.

It is also a pleasant way to reach different parts of the bay while enjoying the Mediterranean atmosphere.

Visit Cap Blanc Aquarium

Cap Blanc Aquarium is located inside a natural sea cave and offers visitors an opportunity to learn about local Mediterranean marine life.

It is a relatively small attraction, making it easy to combine with lunch, a coastal walk or another activity during the same day.

Enjoy the Sunset

San Antonio is famous for its sunsets, but you do not necessarily need to visit the busiest bars to enjoy one.

Find a comfortable location along the coastline, arrive before sunset and give yourself time to take in the views.

A massage during the afternoon followed by sunset beside the sea can make for a particularly relaxing Ibiza day.

Spend Time at the Beach

San Antonio and the surrounding bay provide access to several beaches and swimming areas.

Instead of trying to fill every day with excursions, set aside some time to swim, read or simply enjoy being by the water.

Sometimes the quietest parts of a holiday become the most memorable.

Recharge Before Your Evening Plans

Ibiza holidays can become surprisingly tiring.

Flights, heat, beach days, boat trips, sightseeing and late nights can all take their toll. Setting aside an hour for a treatment can help you slow down before the next part of your holiday.

Some guests book at the beginning of their stay to recover after travelling. Others choose a treatment before a celebration, special dinner or final evening in Ibiza.

There is no single right time to book. The important thing is to reserve before the most convenient appointments are taken.
