IBIZA HOLIDAY
Ibiza has long since been known as the party island, but there is so much more to this magical island. Steeped in history, going back to the time of the Moors and in many ways still unspoilt, this island has a great deal to offer travellers looking for more than a party.
The holidays are run by Barbara Gordon and Jacqueline Purnell. Both extremely experienced and highly qualified, trained teachers, Jacqueline will be offering Astanga based classes in the morning and Barbara Sivananda based classes in the evening. A great mix of styles and very complimentary to each other!
The holidays take place at a new eco centre “The Garden of Joy”, set up by Jacqueline and her partner Sol, who will be the resident cook. Custom built for yoga practice it has its own organic garden offering fresh veg for your meals, plus beautiful views, an outside shaded yoga platform and a swimming pool. It is situated on the northern quieter part of the island, ideal for your yoga practice.
Accommodation is in one or two bedroom, self catering apartments within 15 minutes walk from the centre, with supermarkets, cafes & restaurants close by.
Dinner is available for €20 at the centre - this to be pre-booked and requires a minimum of four persons.
Five minutes walk from the centre, unknown to tourists and one of Ibiza's well kept secrets, is a secluded, pebble beach, with a sweet little cheringuita (beach restaurant). Behind this is Magic Mountain with an obelisk type structure on top.
You can also go horse riding through ancient tracks, go scuba diving and also visit the markets, where you can buy beautiful local crafts. Ibiza town is an absolute must with its great shopping and restaurants and ancient castle/fortress on the hill top overlooking the island. Plus Ibiza is full of lovely beaches, unspoilt little coves and beautiful landscapes, so plenty of sightseeing! On your free day you can visit the next island Formentera, famous for its vast expanse of golden sands and peacefulness. The centre is very lucky to have nearby bus and ferry transport available, which is very rare on the island. The ferry, a lovely eco friendly way to travel around as opposed to hiring a car, goes to Ibiza town, Formentera and Santa Eularia, which hosts the famous Saturday market.
Of course there are lots of parties, beach bars and live music if you are in the mood!
Massage will be available throughout by various practitioners. Barbara will also be offering full body massage. Her treatments include her own magic blend of aromatherapy, healing, accupressure and deep tissue work, depending on the individual's requirements.
I hr massage €50
