At restaurants such as Cotton Beach Club and Alma Beach, where creative dishes are the norm, aioli takes center stage.

Love Letter to the Sea

The Mediterranean, with its abundance of fresh fish, plays an important role in Ibizan cuisine. Dishes like Arroz Marinera and Arroz Ciego are not only delicious examples of local cuisine, but also a tribute to the sea and all it brings. In places like Cala Bonita and Cala Escondida, chefs find their inspiration in the sea.

In contemporary Ibizan cuisine, aioli occupies a prominent place. It is served everywhere from the beach bars of Ibiza to upscale hotels such as Ghitonia Hotel & SPA and Encanto Del Rio Hotel Spain, where hospitality and culinary sophistication go hand in hand. Here, aioli is used to add a unique twist to both traditional and innovative dishes.

Each spoonful of aioli tells a story about Ibiza’s rich history and vibrant mix of cultures. As such, Ibizan aioli is a true culinary treasure that you should definitely taste on your next visit to this beautiful island.
