A creative & cultural hub – The Beach Caves at Six Senses Ibiza

It’s been just a little over a year since Six Senses Ibiza first opened its doors and the stunning resort has firmly cemented its reputation as a place for creatives, modern bohemians and luxury-seekers to gather, celebrate, relax and feel free. And after the unveiling of The Beach Caves – undoubtedly the jewel in its sustainable BREEAM certified crown – to much fanfare earlier this season, there are now even more reasons to flock to the henna-hued cliffs of Cala Xarraca in the north of Ibiza.

Designed as a hub for the world’s culturally inclined, The Beach Caves at Six Senses Ibiza are a series of multi-sensory spaces where likeminded souls coalesce. A celebration of Ibiza’s rich history through innovative design, art, music and food, the sophisticated yet laid-back setting invites appreciation of the past while still pushing discourse forward. Integral to the community-focused ethos at the centre of Six Senses Ibiza, this new destination is a platform on which expression in all its kaleidoscopic forms is invited and indeed, encouraged.

The Beach Caves have been designed to reflect the history, excitement and eclectic spirit of the island. Inspired by the abundance of nature surrounding the resort, the spaces are accessed via a subtle lift that descends from the pool terrace to just above sea level – a journey of discovery that leads to an incredible destination centred around food, drink, art, entertainment, performance, culture, with an additional focus on environmental and community initiatives.

The discreet design of The Beach Caves at Six Senses Ibiza allows guests to feel completely connected with nature. Decked out in rich, earthy tones and in natural hues that complement the breathtaking Mediterranean Sea views, beauty and authenticity take centre stage. Take a seat at The Bar at The Beach Caves and let the clink of ice blocks in glasses lead you into temptation – by day, at sunset or late into the night. Emitting a glow like the colour of molten amber, this cosy but contemporary space is helmed by mixologists whose wizard-like ways with spirits are legendary. Try one of their innovative concoctions that showcase ingredients sourced on the island, or sip on his expertly curated selection of agave-distilled spirits, tequila and mezcal.

The essence of community is felt everywhere at The Beach Caves at Six Senses Ibiza, and the Latin American influence continues at The Beach Caves Restaurant and Terrace. Dine on the seafront terrace that offers front row views of the magical Ibiza sunset and the dance of twinkling stars after dark, or inside where an amazing floor-to-ceiling mural created by Carlito Dalceggio beams a message of peace. The mouthwatering menu is a celebration of local produce brought to life with an infusion of Mexican and Peruvian flavours, featuring sharing dishes and much more.

This uniquely intimate space was designed by on-island interiors experts Diego & Alexeja in collaboration with The Beach Caves creative team, who partnered with Barcelona-based artist and designer Lydia Delgado and Blanca Fabré to create the art installations.
