STAYCATION SERIES || La Hacienda Na Xamena Nurses Poetry and Paradise in Ibiza
The desire to travel and escape the city is being compounded by travel restrictions triggered by the global pandemic. With travel confined to destinations accessible by car, we are launching a Staycation Series, to provide you with unique staycation options around the world, spanning the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific, and beyond. Join us as we explore La Hacienda Na Xamena in Ibiza, an enchanting hotel and resort offering romance and relaxation with its expansive outdoor spaces and front-row seats of stunning sunsets.
Discover solace in a secluded paradise.
It may be unorthodox for a ceremonious architecture to jut out on an isolated island, but Spain proves it is nowhere near impossible. Encrusted in a wild landscape that sits across the Balearic Islands, La Hacienda Na Xamena comforts its guests in an idyllic and hushed atmosphere that consoles their vigor and restores their will. Positioned North of La Isla Bonita, on top of the rocky cliffs at 180m above sea level, the visceral spell of Ibiza casts its reverie to the onlookers, charming them into the palatial hotel and resort that suits their taste for an escapade.
The trail of history that follows La Hacienda Na Xamena circles back to when Belgian architect Daniel Lipszyc stumbled upon The White Island, a pseudonym of Ibiza. By the lull of the gentle sea waves behind him, Lipszyn envisioned a caricature of the Ibizan culture engrossed in the cocoon of nature and wilds. The architecture he had in mind replenished his will to preserve the surroundings of the island rather than allow the entrance of its eradication. The mesh of his design and advocacy foresaw a masterpiece that woke up the once isolated island from its stupor. In 1971, La Hacienda Na Xamena opened its gates as a beacon of a euphoric stay.
Seamless indoor and outdoor living
The hotel and resort is home to 77 suites and rooms, each space favoring features that encourage the guests to let go of the fret. The Suite Familiar lodges in a 65sqm space, complete with a living room and a master bedroom with a bathroom, so families travelling with children can maximize their time and bond together. To relish the savor of repose, their Suite Na Xamena expands to 80sqm, houses two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a jacuzzi, and a double shower with a Turkish steam bath, and affords a panoramic view of the blue Mediterranean Sea. Out on the terrace, a mini-pool and sun loungers await to melt away accumulated stress. In both rooms, minimal furniture and white paint adorn the corners and walls to infuse a haven vibe free from clutter and dim.
Stunning rooms with expansive outdoor spaces
Enjoy beautiful nature views from day to night
The La Hacienda Na Xamena ethos echoes a home for everyone searching for a romantic, relaxing, and unforgettable staycation. Whether the trip is for business or leisure, the property provides areas of entertainment to offset pleasure and of workspace to enshrine a quiet nest for concentration such as two outdoor and one indoor swimming pools, gym, business center, conference room, tennis court, soccer field, a cinema house, and game room.
Stunning sunset view from the Amphitheater facing the Mediterranean Sea
Seamless gatherings and occasions seek refuge on the island too. Whether it is a product-launch setup, a team-building session, annual meetings, weddings, or grand birthday parties, the hotel and resort transforms these events into a souvenir to treasure. The most coveted venue is the amphitheater that faces the Mediterranean Sea and the craggy rolls and peaks of rocky mountains, injecting a romantic and laid-back setting to the ambiance while exploring and reveling in the beauty of the gathering at the brink of a purple-sky sunset.
The property also doubles as a sanctuary of wellbeing where it sanctifies, detoxes, and cleanses the impurities of mind and body. La Posidonia Spa pays tribute to Ibiza's sea and owes its name to the coasts, shores, and a seaweed settlement of Las Islas Pitiusas in the Mediterranean Sea. The spa operates under a team of international professionals who treat in-house guests and external visitors with utmost grace and service, and offer them a variety of facial and body treatments.
Las Cascadas Suspendidas
If one seeks immersive relaxation, Las Cascadas Suspendidas is at the helm of rendering a lazed pampering. Suspended on the cliff at 170m high, eight warm pools, bridged by a waterfall and clouded by a halo-like cantilever, overlook the Mediterranean and invite everyone to reside in a thalassotherapy circuit and a world of wellness. Whether it is in small groups, couples, or on one’s own, Las Cascadas Suspendidas calms the strains of one’s body and mind, allowing the state of Zen to reign their spirit.
When the afternoon sun dips below the blue sea from afar, the sky turns purple and blue with sparse clouds floating at its seams. The soft waves of the sea swing back and forth against the cliff’s rocks, creating a hum that reaches out to the guests above. On top of the island, enveloped in an army of lush forestry, a hotel and resort has established its sanctuary. It nourishes the mind and heart of its patrons, inducing a trance that asks them to stay. And they do linger for quite some time. After all, La Hacienda Na Xamena knows how to slow down time.
