An entirely new expression of the White Island’s culture and energy opens today as Mondrian Ibiza launches an 8-week preview in Cala Llonga.
The global hotel brand is welcoming guests for this brief period ahead of its highly-anticipated 2024 opening.
Mondrian’s introduction to Spain is innately linked to its brand DNA, which is rooted in art, design and culture. Ibiza is known as a bastion for all three, making the island an ideal location for this new 154-room destination.
The stepped white façade of Mondrian Ibiza is a striking addition to Cala Llonga – widely considered the best natural harbor on the east coast and one of its most idyllic locations, with more than 200 meters of beach. Spanish design studios Beades Architects and Cuarto Interior embraced organic forms in this presentation of Mondrian’s signature “modern cultural fairytale.”
The entrance is immersive - its walls seemingly carved from nature itself, with nooks for modern seating and art.
An intimate reception area draws guests in through vivid blue walls and flooring and a reflective gold desk that sit in vibrant contrast the soft, neutral-hued walls.
In close proximity to the entrance, Sun & Moon becomes the go-to gathering spot – a day-to-night lounge boasting ample plush seating, artful interiors, and walls of windows that look out onto the shimmering coast.
The light and airy sensibility carries into the spacious guest rooms, each a serene interpretation of the local landscape.
Woven headboards and chairs, sculptural lighting, and clean-lined furnishings create an inspired retreat. And many rooms are accented with balconies offering front row seating to a spectacular show of nature.
Three onsite pools provide equally captivating views, with generous space to gather, play and bask.
Artwork will be an integral part of the guest experience, as it is in every Mondrian hotel around the world. Gone Rogue – an art curation and consultant collective –thoughtfully selected a collection that draws inspiration from and reflects Ibiza’s natural beauty.
A piece by artist Lauren Baker entitled “Kissing of the Sun and the Moon” features diamond dust at its center to evoke the sparkle of sunlight across the water, while her white neon “Remnants of Stars” will be the source of light in a bar area, simulating the glow of stars in the night sky. “Ocean View” by Hannah Nijsten depicts just that via an array of blue square hues painted onto glass to elicit a sense of floating.
Additionally, Gone Rogue will curate a rolling exhibition space in the lobby dedicated to exploring and showcasing the work of local artists.
Mondrian Ibiza is sure to become a mainstay of island culture, positioned at the epicenter of high-profile moments that connect like-minded, forward-thinking individuals. A lineup of gastronomic destinations, unique to this Mondrian location, will play their part in fostering this community and exciting guests:
Sun & Moon: An all-day destination bar, serving everything from coffee and light bites during the day to refreshing cocktails well into the evening – surrounded by unmatched views.
The Perq: Go-to coffee bar for responsibly sourced, direct-trade coffee, teas, fresh fruit smoothies, and juices.
NIKO: (opening in 2024) Understated and modern Japanese restaurant defined by premium ingredients, exceptional presentation, and a luxurious ambiance.
Alongside Mondrian, Hyde Ibiza will also open its doors for a limited preview.
This 401-room, two-tower property from the music-inspired, boho-chic hospitality brand offers the curated-pool scene, and festival-like programming for which Hyde is known. Bungalow is a lively, spirited pool bar where the vibe is as glamorous as it is comfortable, while Hyde Beach will boast an electric atmosphere featuring sessions from the most enticing DJs on the international scene.
From noon to night, Cuyo will deliver a fresh menu of humble, yet vibrant ocean-to-table food infused with Mexican flavors in a space where barefoot luxury and relaxed refinement reign supreme. Guests of Mondrian and Hyde are able to enjoy entertainment and dining across both properties.
