Location is quite remote
Ses Eufabietes is a budget property set among pine trees and forests in Formentera. The location is relatively remote, though Mitjorn Beach is a three-minute walk away. The 30 apartments are mostly plain with standard furniture and decent amenities like kitchenettes, outdoor spaces, and free Wi-Fi. The pool area includes a relaxing solarium and poolside snack bar. The on-site restaurant offers both buffet and a la carte options, though breakfast costs extra. There's also a supermarket that sells a wide range of products for any last minute emergencies. Other outside areas like the tennis court and playground look a bit run down. Travelers may also consider nearby Hotel Casbah Formentera, a more charming Moroccan-themed hotel with similar rates.
Scene
Simple holiday hotel with dated buildings and shoddy grounds
There's nothing fancy about Ses Eufabietes. It's a simple resort that provides the basic comforts for a family vacation. The building looks quite dated from the outside, still encompassing a typical '80s holiday resort feel. The interiors are slightly more modern, though they're still plain and lack character. The small lobby has the most life in it, with wicker furniture, beach-themed artwork, potted plants, and natural colors creating a beachy-feel. The grounds include large open spaces with trees and gardens throughout, though it looks quite dry with sandy areas instead of lawns and a rather shabby looking tennis court and playground. Ses Eufabietes is geared towards family travelers with numerous kid-friendly features available like the kids' playground, shallow swimming pool, and family-size apartments with bunk beds and a sofa bed.
Location
Quiet area surrounded by forests and close to the beach
Ses Eufabietes is located in a quiet area in Formentera, surrounded by pine trees and forests. Besides Mitjorn Beach (a three-minute walk away) and a handful of scattered restaurants, there's not too much within walking distance from the hotel. San Francisco Javier, the island's main town, is a 10-minute drive from the hotel. For a more lively social scene, Es Pujols is a 13-minute drive from the hotel. Cabs tend to be quite pricey in the area and with no nearby public transport, renting a car is the easiest way to get around -- there's free parking at the hotel. The trip from Ibiza Airport to the hotel includes a 36-minute drive from the Ibiza Airport to Ibiza Harbor, a 40-minute ferry trip to La Savina Harbor, and then a 13-minute drive to the hotel.
