location
The Instituto de Idiomas Ibiza is located
in Ibiza town which is the capital of the
island of Ibiza. We also run a summer
school each year during the month of
august in lovely San Antonio on Ibiza’s
west coast.
The central location allows our students to experience the Mediterranean life in Ibiza
very closely and to start the day with an immersion in Spanish culture: the typical Spanish
breakfast - café con leche with sweet pastry or the great tomato toast - in one of the many
pleasant bars and cafés surrounding the school.
The bus station in order to get to the beaches of the island is right across the street. The
neighbouring hidden squares and small alleys of the historic part of the city - Dalt Vila as well as the historic port host many of the Ibicencan restaurants. These offer the rich
traditional cuisine on different price levels: from very cheap to very expensive. But always
worth the money.
Also when not in class or during a walk through the city all students are welcome to stop by at
the Instituto and have a coffee and perhaps check their e-mail or meet other students.
Our summer school in San Antonio is conveniently located near the vibrant town centre, the
bay and the impressively beautiful beaches around this former fisherman’s village.

The island
Ibiza is the closest Balearic Island to Spain’s mainland. It is situated approximately 45 mls
(72 km) in front of Denia and consists of approximately 355 square miles (571 km) of clear
sedimentary rock. The 125 mls (201 km) of coastline offer a wonderful holiday for all budgets.
The island’s capital - Ibiza Town - was declared a Human Heritage Site by UNESCO.
The island itself is part of the “Islas Pitiusas (the pine islands)“, the two neighbouring islands
of Ibiza and Formentera.
Beaches, villages, shopping, night life... you have it all here, in Ibiza. During the summer
months, from April to October, you will experience a very Mediterranean atmosphere; however,
during winter months, from November to March, you can enjoy the mild climate of this serene
sunny environment.
If you like partying, you are sure to have a wonderful time. Ibiza is full of world-famous clubs.
Ibiza is a special island able to offer something different to each visitor type allowing you to
make Spanish speaking friends and meet people from all over the world. Enjoy the cultural
diversity!
During your stay, we advise you to get information on the great variety offered either in a travel
guide or simply discovering it on your own. If you do not have a guide, you may check the one we
have at the school or ask to be sent one by e-mail.

accommodation
You can chose between a wide
variety of accommodation types
carefully selected by us.
16
Spanish host families in Ibiza Town as well as in San Antonio or other points of the island,
shared apartments with other students or with Spaniards, private apartments as well as
hotels or even an own villa in Cala Vadella. Your accommodation is very important to us in
order to know you will feel comfortable in our language school and on the island of Ibiza.
Ibiza is a small island, therefore, your place of accomodation will always be near
the school.
Are you the independent type? Then the shared apartment could be the ideal option for
you. Your flatmates will most probably come from different countries or backgrounds
and may also be classmates from the school or other visitors on the island. You will
share the apartment with 1 to 5 flatmates. The apartment is completely furnished and
consists of single and double rooms, a common room with television, a common kitchen
with washing machine and bathrooms are shared.
The common areas are being cleaned once a week. The rest is every flatmate’s
responsibility and independency.
As our students come from many different countries, the shared apartment may turn
out to be a unique experience that allows you to expand your intercultural horizon.
The Instituto de Idiomas Ibiza selects host families carefully and inspects them regularly.
This accommodation type allows you a detailed insight into Spanish life style. Here you
will experience directly how the Spaniards organize their daily lives.
All our host families are within a 1-15 minutes walking distance from the school. Host
families may be found in many different constellations: families with father, mother and
child, single mothers with children, couples without children, etc..
Therefore, it may be that this accommodation is a single household. The experience
of the Spanish lifestyle remains the same.
Unless agreed differently, you will get a single room including breakfast. Linen will
be provided to you and you can use the washing machine 1 x per week. A private
bathroom and ironing service is usually not available, but maybe it can be agreed
with the family. Talking to the family is exactly what makes the homestay experience
particularly valuable!
Host families are suitable for those who are open to other cultures and are willing to
learn about a different way of life. In Ibiza Town as well as in San Antonio the most typical
way of living is in an apartment block.
Please ask us for a quote and we will be glad to recommend and make your reservation
from our own selections of hotels and private apartments.
17
activities
Ibiza and its great offer
of activities are ideal for
a great, successful and
unforgettable experience.
18
Our school offers free excursions for its students. These cultural activities are optional,
but highly recommendable if you want to learn about ancient Ibicencan history and spend
some time with the other students. Apart from excursions, we also organize afternoon
films at the school and other different types of events.
The UNESCO has named Ibiza Town World Heritage.
Learn about Ibiza town and its history at our weekly museum visits, explore vibrant
San Antonio with the information we give you and plan your excursions over the island
with us. You will receive all necessary information for weekend trips or excursions, as,
for example, a visit of the neighbouring island of Formentera at the school reception.
The costs always depend on the excursion you choose.

I am French and speak English and Italian.
After attending many schools, I really want to
underline this as one of the best ones.
Many thanks to Irene and Daniel for creating a Spanish
school in Ibiza. The perfect place in Europe to learn
Spanish and have fun.
I did four hours per day for five weeks, without any
problem. I’ve learnt a lot of very useful things and I
already consider myself a young spanish speaker ;-).

En Ibiza, viví en un piso compartido, que
fue facilitado por la escuela. El piso era
muy cómodo y limpio. Me gustó mucho que el
apartamento estaba en el centro de la ciudad
y muy cerca de la escuela. Ademas,
tuve ocasión de practicar español con
los otros compañeros del piso.
(Jacek, 26, Poland)
Mis dos semanas en el Instituto fueron unas
vacaciones increíbles. El ambiente en la
escuela fue siempre muy agradable, familiar
y alegre. Los profesores fueron muy profesionales,
me ayudaron y me explicaron todas mis dudas
sobre el idioma. En mi opinión eran clases muy
interesantes. Después de unos días en el curso
me sentía segura con el idioma y me puse a
practicarlo con mis amigos del instituto en
la isla Mágica. ¡Lo recomiendo sin dudas!

nationalities in small groups and the professional teachers
from different Spanish speaking regions and countries,

places contributes to this. Learning Spanish or improving
