Ready for a longer summer season 2017 in Playa d’En Bossa?

This is the beautiful news of the day.

The “Asociación de Comerciantes y Empresarios de Platja d’en Bossa” has announced that summer 2017 in Ibiza  will be longer, and clubs, bar, beach clubs and restaurants will be open from April   till November .

The news was given by the main Ibiza media (more info here) and this is a really interesting announcement.

We talked about this theme one year ago (read here), and we are happy to read that also our dream could become true.

Ibiza has a climate absolutely mild, Playa d’en Bossa is one of the icons of the island, and there are all the assumptions for a longer summer season.

We hope also that the white island will be connected  with Europe with more flights, and then ready for a neverending Ibiza 2017!

Ibiza by night, as usual, will update you about this intriguing theme.

Work in ibiza: the dream and the (often tough) reality…

Is a seasonal job in Ibiza realistic?

Throughout the following weeks, the most important casting and job selections for Ibiza 2016 will be held.

Many friends have written to us asking for suggestions and discussing their doubts with us.

The question is always the same: is a seasonal job in Ibiza realistic?

There are two possible answers:

a) if you want to spend a great summer and support yourself with your job then maybe (just maybe!), yes. 

b) If you want to earn an honest living AND save money then the answer is – it won’t be easy!

We don’t want to discourage you, but to be honest, there are many important factors that you would need to consider.:

1) the cost of renting; over the last few years, the cost of renting in Ibiza has increased dramatically. For example, to rent a single room it can cost till from 400-450 € till 600-650 € per month.

2) Salaries are not very high; approx. 1300/1700 € per month, sometimes less (of course, in some good restaurants you can also earn tips, but you can’t rely on them).

3) Ibiza is an expensive island. If you earn 1300-1700€ a month,  and you have to spend till 600-650€ just on rental costs, you can see for yourself that it won’ be easy to save money. 

One of our first suggestions, therefore, would be when you apply for a job ask how much the actual base wage is and if staff housing is included.

This could be a good option and many restaurants and hotels offer this.

Then you can evaluate whether it will be a good opportunity for you.

It would be very frustrating after a summer of hard work, to return home with very little money.

We wish you good luck in job search and if you want to know the current job opportunities in Ibiza, click this useful link.

Ibiza 2016: a summer with more free space on the beaches?

Next summer in Ibiza could be a season with more free space on the beaches.

The Ayuntamiento de Sant Josep stated that will reduce  of 10% the number of beach umbrellas and beach beds.

The news are reported by the daily “Diario de Ibiza” and “Periodico de Ibiza”.

The Ayuntamiento de Sant Josep also introduced more rules and the number of beach beds to eliminate should be 900.

So, this decision could mean more free space  on the Ibiza’s beaches.

Let’s see what will happen, anyway Ibiza 2016 could be a summer with many surprises…

 Playa d’En Bossa, Picture by Steve M.- Ibiza by night

Ibiza in winter: a paradise held hostage by the shortage of flights.

Several friends of ‘Ibiza by night’ have written to us, denouncing the high costs and the low number of flights to Ibiza during autumn and winter.

This, unfortunately, is an old problem.

Ibiza, the paradise of clubbers from May to October, remains mainly isolated during Autumn and Winter.

To be honest, during autumn and winter 2015 more flights have been introduced, and from next month there is good news from Ryanair (see related article), but in reality they are still insufficient.

The question is: isn’t it possible for the big cities such as Berlin, Milan, Rome & Paris to have at least one weekly flight to Ibiza during winter? Don’t forget, the weather in Ibiza during Autumn and Winter is still agreeable and mild; the Island is less expensive than in the summer and there are also good parties (during Autumn 2015 Sankeys  and Pacha presented beautiful parties, and with the introduction of even more tourists the night life would probably increase too) so the Island would surely attract people from Europe and worldwide.

This is an important issue that local authorities should aim to resolve.

The same authorities that would like to lengthen the tourist season need to start taking concrete actions.

We can only hope that for Autumn and Winter 2016 the Island will be more connected.

More flights mean more tourists, which means more jobs on the Island, which means less unemployment.

Let’s hope this can happen!
