There is a moment in Ibiza when the light no longer belongs to the day and the island reveals its most magnetic side. At Up&Down, the sky bar at Ocean Drive Talamanca, sunset marks the beginning of an experience that invites guests to discover Ibiza from a truly privileged vantage point. Overlooking Talamanca Bay, with the illuminated skyline of Dalt Vila on the horizon, Formentera in the distance and the Mediterranean stretching as far as the eye can see, every evening unfolds at its own unhurried pace.
As the sun sets, the atmosphere transforms. The light softens, the sea breeze drifts through the open-air terrace and the mood becomes effortlessly sophisticated while remaining true to the island’s laid-back spirit. The sky bar is the perfect setting for lingering dinners, unhurried conversations and cocktails that capture the easy rhythm of an Ibizan evening.
The culinary offering takes center stage with a Mediterranean-inspired menu enriched by international influences, placing the emphasis on exceptional ingredients and the pleasure of sharing. Fresh, contemporary and refined, the cuisine turns every dinner into a journey of discovery and flavor. Standout dishes include Ibiza red prawns with bullit de peix cream, crispy free-range chicken and Oscietra caviar, as well as locally caught rotja served with traditional Mediterranean suquet, baby potatoes and saffron allioli.
Behind the bar, timeless cocktail classics are reimagined with a contemporary twist. Signature creations such as the Royal Cucumber, made with Grey Goose vodka, cucumber, sugar and lime, or the Ibiza Herbal Spritz, blending Ibizan herbal liqueur, St-Germain, cava, soda and lemon cordial, are the perfect accompaniment as Ibiza’s skyline gradually lights up after sunset.
Suspended above the bay and removed from the island’s bustle, Up&Down offers a different way to experience Ibiza after dark: calmer, more elegant and deeply connected to the Mediterranean lifestyle. Here, breathtaking views, exceptional cuisine and an unforgettable atmosphere come together to create an experience that lingers long after the final toast.
By day, the setting changes but the essence of Up&Down remains the same. The pool becomes the heart of the experience, where sun-drenched lunches, refreshing cocktails and long, leisurely afternoons unfold to the island’s relaxed rhythm. Even beneath the midday sun, Up&Down is a retreat where Ibiza expresses itself through calm, sophistication and the simple pleasure of savoring every moment. Elevated… in every sense.
