Ibiza Hotels Embrace Sustainability with 'Net Green Hotels' Initiative

Ibiza is stepping up its sustainability game with the launch of 'Net Green Hotels', an initiative designed to boost the eco-friendly practices of nearly 300 island hotels. Spearheaded by Ecovidrio, in partnership with Ibiza's council and business associations, this project aims to enhance the competitiveness of the hospitality sector through a commitment to sustainable and circular economic practices. Participating hotels can access free online courses on waste management, energy efficiency, and sustainability. These strides have already contributed to a 4.5% increase in glass recycling in June, reflecting a growing environmental awareness among local citizens, businesses, and institutions. By fostering collaboration between public officials, hotel professionals, and specialised organisations, 'Net Green Hotels' is set to transform Ibiza's tourism into a greener, more sustainable industry, making it an essential destination for eco-conscious tourists from the UK and beyond.

Cala Escondida Makes a Splash at Platja d’en Bossa

UK tourists heading to Ibiza have something new to look forward to on the vibrant shores of Platja d’en Bossa. Chiringuito Cala Escondida is setting up shop in this bustling part of the island after being unable to renew its previous spot at es Racó d’en Xic in Platges de Comte. The move comes as the Sant Josep council awarded the kiosk space to Cala Escondida after previous bidding rounds found no takers. This development is sure to be popular among sun-seekers frequenting the end of Platja d’en Bossa near the historic tower des Carregador de Sal. The concession comes at an annual cost of €38,750, a key investment in maintaining the seaside charm that Ibiza's visitors come back for year after year. As anticipation builds, Cala Escondida has been sharing updates on social media, preparing for its much-anticipated reopening later this week.
