End of season sunshine. The hotel at this time of the year is I assume much quieter which suited us as this was our second visit. We were upgraded to Signature Level at check-in and welcomed by the same receptionist as last year with warmth. The food is more than satisfactory in the main restaurant, there really should be no problem finding something you like, the quality is also very good. The Gaucho steakhouse was excellent and we really enjoyed lunch at the food truck. Staff were friendly and attentive. All said a job well done TRS Ibiza. Oh, and hands down the best place to see the sunset - The Gravity rooftop bar!

“Solid new hotel, good location”

I stayed for 4 nights in early October as part of a corporate event. The hotel is newly opened and the location was pretty decent, being a 20 min or so walk to the heart of San Antonio. ROOM: as part of a large group there was some luck involved in allocation of rooms. I was less fortunate and was given an accessible room at the back of the hotel (no ocean view). The room itself was nicely appointed and being accessible meant the bathroom was particularly spacious. The main issue I had was the shower. There was no overhead shower and not even an elevated hook for the handheld shower. You had to physically hold the shower in one hand the entire time. It’s an issue isolated to the accessible rooms but a surprising design oversight given these rooms are being used for all types of guests. That said, my colleagues in regular ocean facing rooms were much happier. POOL: there are a total of 4 pools at the resort. You are given a wristband on arrival which acts as your room key and also indicates whether you are a regular or “Signature” guest. The advantageous seating around the pools for Signature guests was very blatant (and strictly enforced) - including one pool which was for their exclusive use - plenty of opportunity to flex your status if you were so inclined! For us regular folk, there were still plenty of sun loungers around but it did get quite busy, and if you wanted to sit in the shade there were notably fewer (often zero) spare loungers if you didn’t get there earlier in the day. Don’t forget about the rooftop pool (and bar) which offered awesome views especially at sunset time, but seating around this pool was quite limited and I don’t recall seeing any umbrellas. The adjacent bar area did have quite a bit of seating however including shaded options. BEACH: located down a flight of steps and isolated from the rest of the resort although just a few minutes walk away. A small alcove with calm waters (no waves). There are a couple of bars/restaurants down there which are not affiliated with the hotel. Similarly, a large bank of sun loungers was available but not part of the hotel and priced at €25 per pair. DRINKS: most cocktails were pre-mixed and fairly average. Some branded spirits were on offer under the all inclusive but it was fairly basic stuff. I did enjoy the red wine available in the main restaurant. FOOD: all my meals were at the main buffet which was better than expected. There were multiple cooking stations serving freshly prepared items. We had a different theme for each of the 4 nights. Not everything was great, but the selection was sufficiently extensive that you could always find a decent amount of enjoyable items. There was also a steakhouse and maybe another restaurant which were included but I didn’t get a chance to try these out. OVERALL: a pretty solid stay. They scored well in most aspects and the resort does have a bit of a premium feel to it. I didn’t have to pay for it, but I checked their rates and for €300-400 per night (all inclusive) during October I think it’s well worth the cost. During summer months when it’s more than 2x the price could be more debatable but if you consider the fact that it’s Ibiza then you certainly could do worse from a value for money perspective. 4.5 stars overall.
