Top-notch Ibiza experience: group trip with a stay in a luxury villa!
During my tour of Europe I – Managing Director Anita van Maanen – received an offer from one of our suppliers‘Rivas Ibiza‘to ‘try out’ one of their luxury villas. We had to think about that for a moment, seeing as we had just finished a three-week trip through Europe (Read: Lucerne & Heidelberg, Lugano & Turin, Monte Carlo, Barcelona, Nice & Dijon). Still, the temptation was great and it immediately made a nice combination, since we were also going to lead a 4-day incentive trip to Ibiza at the end of August. So… Why the hell not?!
A villa experience in Ibiza is not the go-to experience our clients choose, but a stay in this more intimate setting actually offers many possibilities for corporate group and incentive travel. And we've experienced it! Keep on reading…
Incredible villa with views of...
We couldn't believe our ears when we heard which villa we'd be staying in. It was a stunning villa for up to 20 people, equipped with 2 huge living rooms (100m2), 8 bedrooms (2 of which were 80m2 with a jacuzzi), 8 bathrooms and a separate guest house that could accommodate another two people. And that's to say nothing of the outdoor area with large terraces, a swimming pool measuring 15 x 20 metres and... views of Ibiza Town! Truly an amazing villa in a perfect location!
Why choose a villa experience with our company?
A villa offers countless benefits for a group trip. Firstly, there is the privacy and space that a hotel often cannot provide. Groups can hold meetings here in peace and quiet, a chef can be hired to cook for the group, and organising a barbecue is a piece of cake. In addition, most villas have large terraces, swimming pools and beautiful views, which contributes to an unforgettable experience.
Our villa experience
It was truly brilliant to experience for ourselves this time what it is like to stay in such a villa. The luxury, the space, the view and the swimming pool made it a dream stay. How privileged we felt, thanks to Rivas Ibiza, with whom we have been doing business for years. We thoroughly enjoyed it, but have also been able to visit various suppliers from this base; this time, for example, the Nobu hotel, Obeach, Casa Colonial, Sa Punta, Es Xarcu and Cas Costas were on the schedule.
Marvellous summer incentive trip to Ibiza
Following on from our villa experience, a relatively small incentive group arrived in Ibiza. They stayed in the magnificent hotel Corso, opposite Botafoc harbour. The goMICE project managers had put together a fantastic programme once again!
On the day of arrival, the group thus enjoyed Nassau Beach Club. The valuable group was received as true VIPs with a cordoned-off section on the beach, four lovely large sun loungers, plenty of parasols and delicious drinks already waiting to be enjoyed while listening to the pleasant beach house tunes. If that isn't the ultimate way to relax?! On the second day, a course was set for Formentera on a huge 400 hp speedboat. On Formentera, a lunch was organised at one of the wonderful restaurants that the island has to offer.
After a day spent on and around the water, dinner took place in the evening at one of our high-end suppliers in Ibiza, with various surprises built into the evening. It was pure pampering and became an incentive trip never to be forgotten!

Everything was spot on, and it gives an extra-nice feeling when immediate reactions, like the one below, roll in from the customer after getting home. That always makes us so happy!
