Hi all,

Lookin into goin to Ibiza in sept with a few mates. They're in d process of bookin it. Got good enough deals on flights and accommodation. Iv read d odd forum here and there on the nightlife.
Just wonderin what people thought of the place is it really as expensive as people say? Iv heard conflicting reports. I know d clubs are.
Any info on anything is much appreciated thanks.

It can be expensive or cheap depending on what you want to do, Pacha VIP or Joe Spoons on the west end!In general entry to the big clubs Space, Amnesia, Pacha ect is between 40-60 euro and drink prices are about 12€ for a beer and 15€ for vodka and mixer. Pacha is generally aimed towards VIP and if your not going for that you will be squashed and ripped off. You probably won t be able to hit the big clubs every night for various reasons. The west end in san An is very cheap for drink, u could do a night out there for 20 euro if necessary. Also Bora Bora during the day go to supermarket buy cans for 50 cent and party on the beach.
Hope this helps you. You should budget 15 per day fpor food.

We love space on Sunday generally regarded as best club night.
SHM and Guetta in Pacha the most crowded and expensive

Daily spending money between 60-200 depending what you wanna do.

Well worth the trip!!
Love the island been going over 20yrs.
Its not expensive if you know where to look. Yes the big clubs are expensive but their are deals all over from PR's and bars. As knockostia said entry can be 40-60 but never have I paid that in. An example last year went to the opening party for Tiesto in Privilege bumped into a Linekers rep and did a deal for €60pp which was €2 pint pre drinks, bus ride to another pub near Bora Bora for 3 hour free bar any drink (made great use of that, 10mins in the bar man knew our orders ) another bus to Privilege, entry in and a bus back to San An when all was over all for €60. Advice do all drinking before you get into the clubs save a fortune.

General food shopping is a good bit cheaper then home look out for main supermarkets such as Eroski, Hypermarket and Suma. Drinks are cheap. San Miguel a spanish beer you can buy for around €1.30 for 1L and is a good one. Main stream beer is a good bit more and can not get pint size only 330ml. Spirits you can buy Smirnoff Vodka 1L for around €13 and other Russian brands cheaper and up to 3L bottles for around €16.

Restaurants are fairly expensive, well same sort of prices as home maybe a euro or so less. They are open till late out there, generally last orders are between 11:30 and 1am with the odd one open till 3-4am

Taxi's you are looking at about €25-30 to get from the airport to San Antonio. Bare in mind East cost to West coast of the island is only 25min drive thats how small it is.

Getting around is easy, buses regularly and bus boats to beaches. Taxi's are easy enough to get during the day but come club hours be prepared to wait. NEVER accept taxi's that are unlicensed. Big bills and leaving you in the middle of no where is common. All taxi's are white with either a green/purple/red stripe on the doors with a number. Unlicensed appear around the clubs on finishing times.

Last one to look out for is street sellers, most are ok but others can be trouble.

Everyone that has every been out that I know have loved it. Even if you get tired of drinking take a tour it really is a beautiful island

Knockostia, Bobh2011 thanks a million that's a great help. Very helpful information there everything covered! I booked it so can't wait at this stage!
What are clubs like for dress code? Thinking of booking tiesto and guetta gigs as it's cheaper than paying in over there I was told?
Also, I was informed there's loads to do during the day minus the alcohol??! Beach activities, karting? Are these worth a go? Anything else you'd recommend??
Thanks again guys, the help is great

Any key?

Be careful with daytime activities theres loads to do.I did a speed boat tour of the island afew years ago with a company called Take Off.They were outta their trees driving wound up crashing the boat and I broke my back so would strongly advise against them.
