Ushuaïa Beach Hotel

@ Samantha Q’s review. My boyfriend’s luggage was lost as well. We stayed at this hotel in May of this year. What a coincidence.
Aside from this, this was a lovely hotel. The staff was great and helpful in regards to helping us locate his luggage. We actually were reimbursed by British Airways for the lost luggage. I filled out the required information for this.
The rooms were beautiful. We stayed in the Towers and had the room with the Jacuzzi. Nice. Also, We we had free Moet Champagne as well. The service was great. They cleaned the room at least 2 – 3 times a day. The décor with the Ants on the ceiling and all over the place was cute as well. Yes, we will go back but not in May. It was quite chilly.

Terrible stay in the off season from beginning to end.
We arrived at the main entrance, I didn’t know there was a separate entrance for the tower rooms (where we were staying). This was never communicated beforehand. So after getting our bags out of the car going inside we were told they couldn’t check us in and we had to put our bags back in the car and go to the tower. At the tower there was nowhere to pull up your car and unload because they had the hotel cars outside the front door blocking the entrance (even though they have their own lot on the side which is 70% empty). it is a narrow one way road so if you stop and get out of the car to go inside, cars behind you have no where to go and beep This continued to be a problem our entire stay. The front desk told us 3 times a valet would park our car but there was NEVER a valet there and there was also NEVER room to pull of the car so you could go inside and look for someone to park it. So every time we had to find a place on the street, sometime a couple blocks away.
Check in was slow. Too slow considering there was hardly anyone else checking in. The poor couple behind us probably had to wait 20 minutes just for them to check us in and no one helped else helped them even though there were other staff at the desk.
Our room was nice, It was a suite on the 5^th floor. But it was really just one large room, larger than a double. The bathroom, shower etc are all in the same room, there are just some plastic partitions that are not real walls. I would expect the suites to be higher and have a better view of the ocean but this is not the case. I would consider it partial ocean view. My biggest complaint is that the shower was moldy, but other than that it was pretty nice.
Problems really started the first morning. Breakfast was not at the beach club as advertised, it was at the pool. The first morning they told me it was because it looked like rain, That was a LIE. They had it there every day even though there was no rain. They advertise this amazing breakfast with «Cotton candy machine, ice cream cart, hot chocolate fountain with fruit and marshmallows, a different welcome smoothie each morning, cocktails especially designed for early morning, perfumed waters, a gourmet corner for those who like to enjoy a breakfast of caviar and oysters, coffee menu, and two show cooking corners, one with dishes that change every day and the other classic, with eggs, omelets, waffles and crepes»… In fact they even have this video on their website with acrobats and chefs and such. There was NONE of that. Pretty disappointing considering I paid significantly extra for a rate including breakfast. The scrambled eggs were terrible and tasteless, so a couple of mornings I asked them to make me an omelet. The first time it took ½ hour before they brought it. The 2^nd time they never brought it. They closed down the buffet and it never came. I asked and they said no one knew about it. They told me to wait and they would make it right way. When it came, it was ice cold and it was nothing like the omelet I got the first time. How can it be cold if they just made it? It was like they had a leftover omelet from somewhere and then they scraped some leftover veggies in it from the buffet and folded it over. I can’t believe I waited for that!
One evening we were pretty tired and decided to stay in and order room service. On the menu is a burger named after the steak house, The MONTAUK burger, priced at 30 euros. We ordered 2 of those. It was honestly the worst burger I ever had. It was like a hockey puck on a stale bun, small, over cooked, hard, and barely any toppings. The fries needed salt yet they brought us not salt shaker. We also ordered a large bottle of sparking water. I got a small plastic bottle of san pelegrino with no glasses. Over 70 euros for this. Unbelievable!
Later that night around midnight I noticed a weird dripping sound. After a couple minutes we realized that the ceiling above us was leaking! Right next to the bed onto the nightstand right onto my laptop! We promptly called reception and they said they would send maintenance but we told they we wanted to move. The woman on the phone actually told my husband there were no other rooms. Ha, another LIE because after maintenance came and checked it they had to move us to another room because the room above us was leaking into ours. So the front desk sent up a bellman, he arrived about 30 seconds after they tell us we are moving, expecting that I somehow had time to pack all my things. When we told him we were still packing he disappeared and never came back. So we were waiting with no key to the new room. Finally we had to call again and go down to the desk before he came to move us.
Looks like I ran out of room for this review. Hopefully you get the idea. NOT at all a 5 star, first class hotel. Avoid during the off season. Avoid in general unless your only goal is party and you a fortune for no service!

I loved staying here on vacation. Sent free champagne up my first night cause me and my friends luggage was lost with the airport. Marga helped with everything, calling Vueling and dealing with them personally. I stayed in the tower, room was so nice. Food everywhere around the hotel is amazing. The best djs all play at Ushuaia.

Ushuaia is a really nice hotel and venue for an awesome line up of DJs. The stage is big and the center of the hotel contains a pool which is surrounded by the hotel rooms with balconies. The only downside is that it ends early. I guess that leaves time to party elsewhere afterwards.

Had the pleasure of the «anything can happen suite». Hotel is extremely nice for a beach hotel. Very clean, state of the art showers boasting digital controls and rain shower heads. Beds were comfortable. Suite can fit two non couples. Bathtub on the deck was great when I wanted to escape the sun. Room service was supper expensive but great selection. Beach was beautiful but get on their early so you can get a chair or you will be paying 150Euro for a cabana. Breakfast expensive but very nice selection.
Overall
Clean and great location beach wise
EXPENSIVE. Get ready for a crazy room service charge if you want basic things.

Ushuaïa hotel is (wannabe) hip and expensive. They throw huge parties with famous DJ’s playing for a crowd of rich kids. The bigger, amoeba-​shaped pool is a fun location for that sort of entertainment. The Ushuaïa Oyster and Caviar Bar is situated at the more private pool (you have to drink from plastic for safety reasons) of the Ushuaïa hotel tower. My wife and I fancied a couple of oysters, king-​crab legs and bubbles. Although the restaurant only had us and another couple to serve, it took the waitresses a while to find somebody not to busy (?!) to serve us… When we got our oysters and king-​crab legs (500 grams instead of our ordered 250 grams), we where only presented knives and forks to open up the tough crab’s exterior, which didn’t work of course. Also we got just a couple of prepackaged lemon-​scented-​chemical-​drenched mini towels to clean our fingers with… The smell would definitely kill all mosquitos on our part of the island. Not classy at all. After I asked for the appropriate lobster and crab utensils and a bowl of water with a fresh lemon in it for cleaning our fingers, we got 2 free drinks to make up for the mistakes, which was nice of them. Oysters were nice too, but the king-​crab legs were boiled then grilled, which made the flesh very chewy and very difficult to separate from the legs. In the end we only had to pay for the 250 grams we ordered instead of the 500 grams we got… Wow. Ushuaïa Oyster & Caviar Bar is pretentious but doesn’t know anything about class nor style. Very disappointing.

Ich war im Ushuaia Tower vor wenigen Tagen als Gast und muss sagen… Wow! Ja es ist ein Teures Hotel, aber was design, Sauberkeit, Exclusivität angeht sucht dieses Hotel seines Gleichen an der Bossa (evtl. noch das Hardrock Hotel).
Die Zimmer könnten zwar größer sein, aber sind extrem sauber, haben stylische Elemente und alle Annehmlichkeiten. Es gibt nichts was es nicht gibt, bis hin zu den für jeden gast gratis zur Verfügung gestellten FlipFlops.
Die MiniBar ist eine Maxibar, wo es (zu höheren Preisen) ganze Flaschen edelster Spirituosen gibt,
Das Früstuck ist mit 39 Euro pro Person und Tag sehr teuer, aber in Anbetracht dessen dass dort Kaviar serviert wird, man verschiedenen frischen Fisch… Wurst… verschiedene Arten Eier… alles an Obst und Gebäck bekommt was man sich denken und wünschen kann, trotzdem noch machbar.
Es ist eben ein Luxushotel, und so sind auch die Preise.
Ich komme gerne wieder

Worst experience ever in Ibiza my favorite place on earth.
Parties are fine though turning more and more commercial.
But the hotel? seriously? the pool is decoration for the parties but are not for hotel guest use. the rooms are minuscule. shower are a joke.
But absolute worst is the rude staff, incompetent at check in and check out.
They tell you about late check out, well good luck with that we had to leave at noon and got our wrist band cut off so we could not even enjoy for free the party of the afternoon of your check out date. Well it was Guetta so not a big miss but still…
Long story short, hotel management so obsess with milking every penny out of this cash cow that they treat their clients like animals.
And best excuse a manager can find when confront to our horrible treatment was: «I’m doing my job, I’m following orders». I thought this kind of excuses stopped being acceptable in 1945 but when you run a hotel like a war camp I guess that makes sense.
Pretentious hotel for pretentious ppl flashing money and not smart enough to see they’re being ripped off.
In an island that’s abut love, sharing and communion, it’s a shame.

THE place for clubbing with all the famous djs in the world! Girls hardly get in free and tables are dirt cheap compared to Vegas! $ 1,000 can get like 10 people in AND there’s no tax and gratuity! Amaaazing!

AMAZING day party in Ibiza! Located in a terrible part of the island (unless you’re into tourist traps) Ushuaïa was a pleasant surprise– open air, amazing music, great crowd mixed of all ages just wanting to have a good time. the layout was spacious enough so that no one was on top of eachother and the lighting and sound were incredible. I wouldn’t stay in the hotel as its more of a Vegas-​y vibe but for a good time and awesome tunes it doesn’t get better than this. Party ends @ midnight so its a great start to a night out. Have some drinks beforehand if you want to save a few euros

Beach club hotel that has extraordinary DJ music!
It was the opening weekend for summer and getting the DJs pumping up the music in the clubs of Ibiza!
This was one of them and it was outdoors! It was amazing! I truly had a very fun time here! The music was a blast and a bliss!

Stylisches Hotel zum Abfeiern bei den legendären Poolparties. Da stören auch die niedrig darüber fliegenden Flugzeuge nicht. Andererseits bietet der dazugehörige Strandclub dennoch gute Möglichkeit in schicken Ambiente zu relaxen.

The cream of the crop when it comes to Ibiza day parties. The «club» basically runs from about 5pm-​midnight so it’s much different than Vegas day parties that are basically ending by 5 or 6.
Production, lighting, visual, weird shit that happens @ clubs that you can only understand if you’re on drugs — you’ll find all that & more & Ushuaïa.
The party happens in the middle of the hotel essentially so most of the guest rooms are surrounding the pool. Fabulous if you want to party ALL night & day. Annoying if you are too wasted & just want to chill out for a bit.
The Ushuaïa towers are fairly new & are to the right of the hotel so I recommend staying there if you want to be at the party but still escape.
In either scenario staying here is beyond expensive, much like most of Ibiza. When I went, it was over $ 800 USD/​night.
Basically this entire hotel is a party the entire time so definitely don’t stay here if that’s not what you’re looking for.
Here’s the lowdown on prices:
Drinks
What you would pay anywhere else/​Vegas … a billion dollars. The cheapest thing you can get is a shot of hierbas which was 5 €. If you’ve been to Ibiza before you know what hierbas is. If you haven’t, it’s very similar to roman sambuca but not as strong of a black licorice/​anise flavor. Essentially it’s a liquor made in Ibiza that is made up of several local herbs.
The next cheapest option was beer and they ONLY had Heineken…1 option, that’s it. These we’re about 12 €.
Entrance
About 70 € and I strongly advise you to get your tickets in advance. The price only goes up if you get them at the door plus the good DJ’s sell out before you even get there.
Dress code
DGAF. Same as most of Ibiza.
If you want to see the best production, visuals, sound system & nicest day party that Ibiza has to offer, you can’t skip Ushuaïa.

Amazing and fabulous party hotel right on the water in playa den bossa. Right across the street from space night club and many restaurants and stores. Beautiful and newly remodeled. The most impressive is the large pool area out back where they host world famous dj parties nightly including David Guetta, Carl cox and many more.
The prices here are outrageous and i saw some rooms online listed for 500 – 1,000+ euro a night. The entrance fee for all the parties is 50 – 75 euros depending what’s going on that night
It’s worth checking this out if you’re in Ibiza, even if you can’t afford to stay here at least go for one party

Solamente puedo decir una cosa. Matute hijo se arriesgó invirtiendo más de 21.000.000 € en esta criatura… Y acertó. Ha sido el primero en crear un hotel discoteca y va a ser plagiado por todo el planeta… Seguro… Pero este es el primero y lo ha hecho en Ibiza. Ha creado un mito.

This was my favourite night (well early evening) out in Ibiza. We went all out with getting a table — we thought it might be difficult to run up the minimum but we met that and more. Service is great but so eager I wasn’t used to it. When I was making my own vodka tonic drink, they’d rush over and finish making me a drink.
My only gripe about getting a table is that there is a sad food menu. How could there only be bread and sushi as a food option? There has to be food since it’s a hotel!

This is by far thee only place (next to Bora Bora) that I will give 5 stars in Ibiza. I will forever remember my night at Ushuaia. Nervo, DJ Like Mike, Kaz James– the people, the weather, the music, the beats. It was amazing! I love Ushuaia and their set up. We got in free before 8pm (thank gosh for promoters!). And drinks were not bad at all– a red bull vodka was 15 euros. Overall when someone asks which was my favorite club in Ibiza, 100% I will say Ushuaia.

Stop reading this review now if you actually go to Ibiza to get some rest.
Now, fellow party people, this hotel is a splendid cocktail of luxury, pretty people, dancing and food. Try to make it for Swedish House Mafia Wednesday — one of the most amazing times of my life.
A couple of gripes… it’s not THAT luxurious, so it would be best to knock off some of the price. Also, check in and check out took way too long.

Paying 300eu for a night, Ushuaia have provided excellent services!
The room is nice & clean with high quality egyptian cottons linens and towels. Decors are pretty modern as well. All staffs are very helpful and spell ok English.
All hotel guests got free admission (35eu) Ushuaia parties which usually held 4 times a week from 6pm to 12am poolside!!! And they are awesome!!! 2012 they have Luciano and other top DJs line up!!! unbelievable awesome!
The continental breakfasts are better than I expected! With various varieties but mostly fruit n veggie, bad news for meat lovers coz they got sausages n bacon n smoked fishes only. I got disappointed on the eggs! Eggs is all the matter to me when come to breakfast but honestly they don’t know how to make eggs!
Well, I got cheered up after couples champagne on the house!!! Haha…
I took one star away because they charged us 5eu for hot water services! I can’t believe I need to pay 5eu after paying 300eu a night of hotel.
bonus point: they lend me a international adapter so i can charger my iphone! life saver! and of coz free wifi…

I am from Ibiza and yes this hôtel was terrible. Good news, they just invested 20 000 000 euros in refurbishment and is now called Ushuaia, a five star party hôtel.
during the summer they host 5 to 7 parties weekly staring around 5 pm till midnight for guests respect. Usher, David Guetta, Luciano, Dj Sneak, Swedish House Mafia, Kool and the Gang … All the shows are made with professionalism, you should see the staff: all equipped with PTT.
There are two restaurants. One is japonese oriented with delicious sushis (lobby restaurant) called Minami. and there is another one on the beach serving Mediterranean cuisine.
The swimming pool is not very deep: 1,5 meter, avoid diving unless being a pro :-)
There is also a SPA with hairdressers and make-​up artists, and a gym club reserved for the guests only.
Important thing: there is a strong door selection. Then if you wanna visit only, ovoid flip flop and swimming shorts, unless you are Snoop Dogg.
Check their website it is lovely.
Viva Ibiza

I am appalled that this hotel can charge the prices that they do. Yes, this Ibiza during the height of tourism season, I understand.
Although we are a young group ourselves, we were surprised at how disrespectful of property the other young people who stay in this hotel are. Ibiza is one of the party capitals of the world, but my sister and I would never imagine causing such a ruckus in the hotel. Kids were throwing glass bottles from their balcony. Not only is this highly disruptive, but it is dangerous for those of us walking along the sidewalk. Keep your moronic behavior to the club, not the hotel.
It took a long time for the cleaning service to come to our room (not until after 4pm). Another general observation was that the water that came out of our tap was not potable (pure salt water). The internet was very expensive; I felt completely robbed. Something like 5 Euro for 20 minutes. Breakfast and an additional meal were included in the price, but it was not very good food. The bar in the hotel was reasonably priced though and made very strong drinks — a definite plus considering how expensive Ibiza is!
When we checked in, the extra bed (there were 3 of us) was not properly configured, so we had to ask to have that done. They did it promptly, which was nice of them. When my sister and I went to the beach and wanted to rent umbrellas and towels, we were told we had to put down a 20 euro deposit. We rented everything on the beach instead. You’ll have to put down a deposit for everything at the hotel, including the remote control. (I’m not kidding.)
The proximity to the beach was probably the only nice thing about the hotel. The beach and the pool area were both beautiful! Space was also right across the street, but the tickets the hotel offered were not very discounted.
Overall, this hotel was more like a hostel with separate bathrooms, but charging four times the price.
