This hotel also has a video and combined with the client comments and map is a pretty good example of what we plan to do in all the accommodations we represent in Ibiza.

The beach was missed out on purpose because they were caring out a cleaning job, also underwater and there were huge red bags filled with garbage, anyway we thought this was not representative of what the beach looks like 99,9 % of the time. How ever you can see the beach in all detail in the video.

Our videos have been watched 40,000 times

2008-02-27T09:07:00.002Z

Virtual Reality for Hotels in Ibiza

2008-02-25T09:22:00.000Z

Our goal has always been to give our clients the most precise information of hotels in Ibiza so that you know what you are really getting for your money.
Were we will play an impartial roll and only show you what is there.
With this philosophy in mind we started last year with the videos of hotels in Ibiza.
Even if the videos are a great tool the client sees what we want to show them and not what they want to see.
The only way to show on a web page exactly what the accommodation looks like is virtual reality and that is exactly what we are staring to do.
We started with the Apartments Parot in Santa Eulalia and we hope to do many more very soon.

This does not mean that we will stop making videos, in fact we have just purchased new equipment to improve the quality of our videos.
We believe that virtual realty and videos complement each other very well. As a 360 panoramic view can not really transmit the personality of a accommodation like a video can.
A video like we said before will just show you what we want to show you and not what you want to see.

We will keep you informed as we add this feature to other hotels and apartments.

Rent a Maserati in Ibiza

2008-02-22T09:12:00.002Z

New generation of maps

2008-02-21T09:11:00.001Z

We have created a new generation of maps for the hotels.
The 2 first hotels that already have this technology is the Tres Carbelas in Playa den Bossa and the 4 star Blau Park hotel in San Antonio.
It consists of a Google map like we always had but know in the window we have the name of the accommodation and then we have a how to get here section with three links covering all the possible entry points of the island: The airport, the harbour of Ibiza town and the harbour of San Antonio.
Once you click on the link you get a page with the exact trail to follow to get from any of these 3 points to the hotel, on the left hand side you find the instructions to follow to drive yourself.
On the top left hand side you will also find a button to get the inverse direction to find your way back to the airport of harbour.

Beneath you will find a rent a car link that brings you to our car rental page were you can make your booking with a system that is similar to the one used to make your booking for the hotels.
Witch we thought would be useful now that you know how your way around the island.

Problems of Eastern

2008-02-20T08:13:00.001Z

Many hotels in Ibiza will not open their doors in Eastern of this year.
The reason is that eastern is very early this year, end of March. If a accommodation opens they have that one week were they will have a good occupancy but then they will have to wait till the beginning of May till the tourist season starts again almost with out customers and with the high costs of personal.
This idea has scared many hotels and apartments that prefer to wait till May to open their doors.
A few others have gone around this problem in what I consider the best solution, they open in eastern and then close after it is over and re open on the first of May.

This was not a problem last year since ?La Semana Santa? (Local name for eastern) was April and the time the hotels had to stay open with out customers was much lower.

The ?Semana Santa? is a huge celebration in Spain, for more information click on our Eastern Special.

Spanish reservation forms

2008-02-18T09:21:00.004Z

We have continued with translating our reservation form to Spanish.
The latest accommodations that have been translated is the 3 star Hotel La Cala in the centre of the town of Santa Eulalia, Ibiza. La Cala is looking forward to be upgraded shortly to 4 stars.
The only thing they are missing right now to achieve this status is a gym.
The service and food in La Cala are out outstanding, if you read the client reviews you will see we are not the only ones that think so.

Then we have the apartments el Pinar in the spectacular beach of Cala LLonga, about 6 kilometres from the town of Santa Eulalia but still in the towns municipality.
The chain La Sirena runs these apartments, famous for a very familiar and friendly atmosphere.

Last but not least we have the Hotel Miami in Es Cana, about 4 kilometres from Santa Eulalia.
This accommodation is especially family friendly, with a kids club, play ground, sport court, kids pool and much more.
If you are looking for family friendly hotels in Ibiza click here.

New: Hotel Cala Gracio

2008-02-15T08:43:00.002Z

We have added yet another accommodation to our portal.
It?s the Fiesta Hotel Cala Gracio in the cove with the same name right next to the Tanit and only 1 Km from the centre of San Antonio.
Far enough from the clubs and bars to have a quiet holiday and sleep well but close enough to walk to the Legendary Caf� del Mar, the West End or the 2 big discos in San Antonio, Eden and Es Paradis.

The hotel Cala Gracio also offers great Mediterranean gardens that harmonize with the natural surrounding.
A 24 hour reception in case you have a late flight or you want to party till late, if you want explore other parts of the island they also have a car rental service.
However if you want to come in June, July or August we recommend you make your car rental reservation well in advance.

Currency converter

2008-02-14T08:09:00.001Z

After looking at the country of origin of our clients we saw that over 70% of our clients came from counties were they don?t use the Euro, and all our prices in the reservation forms are given in Euros.
To make it easier to all these customers we have added UK Pounds and US dollars.
The total price and the deposit amount are given in 3 currency?s now. This brings the percent of customers how does not use any of these 3 currency?s down to about 7 %.
This currency conversion rate is updated daily with the European Central Bank.

There has been a growing percent of Americans that visited Ibiza but we have see with the currency converter that the prices are extremely high for them since the dollar has lost so much of it?s value compared to the Euro and the Pound.
This might mean that we will not see that many Americans in Ibiza this summer.

Galeon has installed Wi-Fi

2008-02-13T08:27:00.002Z
