| Description: | Ibiza Town is the capital of Ibiza, one of the Balearic Islands located 52 miles from the eastern Spanish coast. Although most of the island is unspoilt with rural architecture and olive groves, resorts such as Ibiza Town are very busy during peak season. Most residents of Ibiza live in Ibiza Town. It is essentially an old town, the old quarter being known as ‘Dalt Villa’ with narrow cobbled streets, an old medieval castle, cathedral and stone walls. The three other main districts of the town are Puig des Molins (in the hills), Sa Penya (old fishing district), and Eixample (modern quarter). The town has a large gay and hippy population, and this is reflected in the local hippy markets. Like Majorca, property in Ibiza is relatively expensive, although prices are expected to continue rising. This does not surprise me as the rental yields are brilliant. Its only a matter of time before this yields are eroded away by the spiralling property prices to be seen from this area. My advice to you is get in there quick! One drawback of the area is that not only does Ibiza attract holidaymakers it also attracts the thieves! Ibiza is addressing this problem and there is a stronger police presence than there was before. Spain understand that this island is the jewel in their crown and they will do whatever it takes to protect it. | |||||||||||||||||||||
