Ibiza Rocks 2027: dates, residencies and tickets alerts

Ibiza Rocks 2027: the hotel, the pool club and the story behind them

The Ibiza Rocks hotel is in San Antonio and was formerly the Club Paradiso Mediterraneo, bought and rebranded by the Ibiza Rocks group. The brand has an interesting origin: it was founded by Andy McKay and Dawn Hindle, who came from Manumission at Club Ku, the site now known as UNVRS. It began in 2005 in a small San Antonio venue that today is the Ibiza Rocks Diner, before moving to the hotel. The group also owns Pikes Hotel, another famous name in the island's hospitality story. The exact street address and the year the hotel opened in its present form are not confirmed in our sources, so we leave them out. What is clear is the concept: a hotel with a daily pool club where music is a core attraction and not an add-on. That makes it popular with groups of friends, younger travellers and anyone who wants to wake up, walk downstairs and be in the middle of the action. To compare the surrounding area with other bases, read our San Antonio guide.

How the Ibiza Rocks 2027 pool sessions work from check-in to evening

A pool party at a hotel is easier than a conventional club night in several ways. The 2026 opening and closing events both ran from 14:00 to 21:00, so you can enjoy a full afternoon, finish at a sensible hour and still have an evening ahead for dinner or a late club. Guests staying at the property have the advantage of simply walking to the pool, while visitors from elsewhere in town need to think about entry conditions, which can differ by event, so always read the ticket description carefully. Prepare as you would for a day at a very lively beach. Bring sunscreen, a hat, swimwear, a towel if it is permitted and a small waterproof bag for your phone. Eat before or during the session, because the sun and alcohol are a tiring combination, and drink water between rounds. Footwear that copes with wet tiles is sensible, and so is a plan for where to leave valuables, since a pool setting is not a place to carry more than you need. Behave considerately, as other guests are trying to sleep.

The 2026 weekly pool parties and what they suggest for Ibiza Rocks 2027

The 2026 schedule, as listed by industry roundups, gives a clear picture of the rhythm. On Monday there was Nothing New, from 27 April to 28 September. Tuesday was the Ibiza Rocks Pool Party, from 28 April to 29 September. Wednesday offered Bingo Brunch, from 29 April to 23 September. On Saturday came Ibiza Anthems, from 2 May to 3 October, and Sunday was R&B Affair, from 3 May to 27 September. Headliners for each night are not verified in our research, so we do not name them. The pattern points to a hotel that listed five pool-party days a week, with Thursday and Friday not shown in the roundups we used, with a mix of themes that ranges from brunch and bingo to anthems and R&B. Whether the same nights return in 2027 is unknown, since promoters and hotels often rework their calendar from one year to the next. Check our residencies hub once new names are announced, and compare the vibe of each night with your own taste before you commit to a particular date or a room.

Expected Ibiza Rocks 2027 opening and closing dates

In 2026 the pool club opening party took place on Sunday 26 April, from 14:00 to 21:00, and the closing pool party was on Wednesday 30 September, again from 14:00 to 21:00. One conflicting list suggested an earlier closing in late September, so there is some uncertainty in the sources. Reports also differed on exactly when the hotel itself opened its doors in the spring, so we will not state a firm date for guest check-ins. If the pattern holds, the 2027 season should start in the last week of April, in line with the big opening weekend, and close around the end of September or the first days of October. That is a projection, not an announcement. Official dates usually arrive between January and March, often after the spring industry events. For the wider calendar, read our opening parties page and the closing parties guide, and avoid committing to non-refundable bookings until the hotel publishes its schedule.

Ibiza Rocks 2027 tickets, rooms and what to budget

We do not have verified prices for Ibiza Rocks, so we will not quote any. What we can explain is how the model works. Pool parties may be ticketed separately for visitors, while hotel guests often have different access, and rooms are priced like any accommodation, which means rates climb with demand in July and August and fall in the shoulder months. The most popular nights and the opening weekend tend to sell out first, whereas quiet weekday sessions in May or September are usually easier to get. When the 2027 programme appears, compare the total cost of a room plus tickets with the price of staying elsewhere and paying for individual events. Check what is included, whether there is a minimum spend and what the cancellation rules say. Our tickets guide explains release timing and common traps, while the budget page puts accommodation, food, transport and nights out into a realistic picture of what a week on the island costs.

Getting to Ibiza Rocks 2027 and moving around San Antonio

From the airport, the AERO1 bus runs to Sant Antoni in about 50 minutes, every 30 minutes from May to September and hourly in April and October, with a fare of around 4 euros in 2026. Metered taxis were typically quoted between roughly 28 and 38 euros under the old tariff, and a new tariff approved in September 2026 is expected to add a few percent when it comes into effect. For a late-April arrival, remember the hourly frequency and check the timetable before you fly. Once you are in town, almost everything is walkable, and short taxi rides are cheap compared with the rest of the island. Official white taxis are the dependable option, while ride-hailing apps are limited and legally contested. If you stay at the hotel you will not need to travel for the pool parties at all, which is a big advantage after a long afternoon. Our airport transfers page and getting around guide cover buses, taxis and boats in detail.

Building a day around Ibiza Rocks 2027: beaches, sunsets and boats

A pool session that ends at 21:00 leaves you free to enjoy the sunset first, as San Antonio faces west and the sky is a main attraction. Some mornings you can head to a nearby cove, such as Cala Gració, which is a short distance north of town, or take a boat from the harbour to Cala Bassa or Cala Conta. In 2026 the sunset cruises left around 18:00, which would clash with the pool, so choose one or the other. A sensible rhythm is beach in the morning, pool in the afternoon and dinner after the sun goes down. Remember that the West End area limits alcohol sales in shops between 21:30 and 08:00, so plan your drinks in advance. Our beaches guide compares the nearby coves, the sunset page lists the best viewpoints, and the boat parties guide explains how harbour trips work, so you can design a day that is lively without being exhausting.

Planning an Ibiza Rocks 2027 trip: months, mood and neighbours

Because the pool club operates across the whole season, the main choice is the mood you want. Late April and May bring fresh energy, lower prices and cooler water. June and September offer a good balance, with warm weather and space. July and August are the busiest and hottest, and rooms cost more. A long weekend can work well, as the programme includes events on both weekdays and weekends, so you can choose the vibe that suits your group and your budget well. If you want to see different sides of the island, combine your stay with a night at Eden or O Beach, both in the same bay, or travel across the island to Ushuaïa for a larger daytime event. Check the month guides for June and September, and read the accommodation overview to decide whether a party hotel or a calmer base is right for you.

Ibiza Rocks 2027: frequently asked questions

These are the questions readers ask most often about the hotel and its 2027 plans. The answers use only verified 2026 information and cautious expectations, because nothing has been announced for 2027 as of October 2026. If you want a message when official dates, party names or ticket releases appear, use the alert on this page, and remember that announcements for the season usually come between January and March. Until then, treat any exact date you read elsewhere as a projection, keep your plans flexible, avoid non-refundable deposits too early, and revisit this page after the first news so that you can compare the confirmed plans with what we expected here and adjust your trip. Read each answer as guidance rather than a promise, check the hotel's own event page again shortly before you travel, and remember that rooms and tickets may be sold separately, so confirm what you are buying before you pay.

When do the Ibiza Rocks 2027 pool parties start?

No date has been announced. In 2026 the pool club opening party was on Sunday 26 April from 14:00 to 21:00, and the weekly parties ran from late April through September, with the Saturday Ibiza Anthems continuing to 3 October. If the pattern holds, the 2027 pool season should begin around the last week of April. That is an expectation, not a fact, and official dates usually appear between January and March. Keep your flights flexible, and use the alert on this page so that you are told as soon as the hotel confirms its calendar for the new season. Even once dates are out, individual events can be added or moved, so look at the event page again a few weeks before you travel, and keep the confirmation of any room or ticket, including the stated start time and entry conditions for that particular day, and note any rules on towels, bags or outside drinks.

Which nights could return for Ibiza Rocks 2027?

The 2026 listings showed Nothing New on Mondays, the Ibiza Rocks Pool Party on Tuesdays, Bingo Brunch on Wednesdays, Ibiza Anthems on Saturdays and R&B Affair on Sundays. Whether these return in 2027 is unknown, since hotels often adjust their weekly format between seasons. We do not have verified headliners or ticket prices, so we do not quote any. The best approach is to wait for the official programme, choose a night by its style and then check what the ticket includes before you pay or reserve a room. If a favourite night does not come back, do not worry: hotels like this tend to replace it with something similar, and the overall rhythm of afternoon sessions, themed days and a lively poolside crowd has stayed recognisable. Compare the new list with our residencies hub to see what else is happening nearby on the same dates, and which weekday suits your plans.

Is Ibiza Rocks Hotel 2027 close to the San Antonio sunset?

Yes, the hotel is in San Antonio, the bay famous for its west-facing sunsets, and the pool sessions of 2026 finished at 21:00, so you can combine an afternoon at the pool with an evening on the promenade or at a bar. If you prefer a boat or a beach for sunset, remember that harbour cruises left around 18:00 in 2026 and would overlap with the session. Plan one big activity per evening, eat properly, drink water and allow time to rest before heading out again. If you are staying at the hotel, the short walk back to your room is a real advantage, but ask the reception about quiet hours and pool rules, as these can differ between guests and day visitors, and arrive early on busy days to secure a good spot near the water, where the shade and the sunbeds fill first, and bring a refillable bottle for the heat.
