The Balearic Beat
Having a reservation for a hotel in the Balearic islands, off the coast of Spain, might be one of the best feelings in the world. It’s got all sorts of associations, and none of them bad. Considering the time away, and the possibility that time itself might cease to matter when the beaches begin to make perfect sense, is exquisite. But still, the daydreaming is nothing compared to being here. The Balearics have so much to offer, and can make any traveler feel as though they’ve finally come home for the first time again. When it comes to 5-star hotels, Balearics are even more gracious. We’ve selected some of the finest choices on the islands, to offer you a sumptuous combination of hospitality and style, to put you where you want to be.
The Balearic islands are a treat for travelers of all ages. The sea is a source of pleasure and fascination for everyone, and it’s possible to while away the days gazing at the sky, or gazing into the waves, and forget to even set your feet in the water. But the beach culture here can be pretty animated, so if you’re looking for fun and water, then you’re in the right place. The food around here is as exquisite as one might imagine, being in the heart of the Spanish Mediterranean. There are culinary traditions here that go back for many generations, informing the contemporary chef on how to prepare fresh seafood for a discriminating clientele. It doesn’t get better. The nightlife, of course, is superb, in a place that gave birth to the Balearic
beat.
This, of course, refers to the electronic dance music that made Ibiza what it is today. It’s a relatively slower version of some of the more aggressive types of electronic music being played on the islands, and seems to sync up with the tastes of the tourist public here. In Balearic beat, the djs are given more free reign in terms of crossing genres and lines than in other types of music, and one of its characteristics is an openness to form. It is, like the place itself, the warm and friendly musical genre that’s keeping the kids up well past midnight.
