Picture perfect

From sunrise to sunset, the soft, golden sands of Es Cavallet set the picture perfect scene for your Ibiza wedding or event. Surrounded by spectacular salt flats and rolling sand dunes, its ethereal, romantic beauty comes to life, with breathtaking views across the turquoise waters to Dalt Vila and Formentera completing the setting. And that’s before you’ve stepped inside the ultra-luxe world of El Chiringuito.

The split–level design of the restaurant provides much scope for you to create your dream event, from intimate soirees, starting with cocktails and canapés on the sand to a candlelit private dinner on the deck or an elegant extravaganza, where up to 240 people can be seated at one time. Formal, casual, cosmopolitan or cool, at El Chiringuito, anything and everything is possible.

A white wedding heaven, the venue is a perfectly executed synergy of chic white lounges, soft floating canopies, dreamy escapist hammocks, stripped back wooden tables and natural earthy tones, making your wedding album look like it belongs on the pages of the glossiest of bridal magazines.

To cater to your event, take inspiration from the Mediterranean menu, drawing on Spanish, Italian and French influences and always using the island’s finest and freshest produce. Let head chef Eric Fontanini guide you into pure food fantasia, from luscious bite-sized canapés to custom-designed degustation excess, all developed in accordance with your own tastes and desires.

Just ten minutes from Ibiza town, El Chiringuito’s easy-to-find (and highly sought after) location makes addressing those invitations a breeze and once they’ve arrived, your guests will never want to leave.

Who can blame them? Once you’ve discovered paradise, real life will never feel the same again…
