Originally posted by gimmebeatz unfortunately i havent gone yet. was hoping i was going to this year but $ didnt permit. i have been aware of what it truly costs in ibiza without worrying about if ull have enough $ cause i have been talking to different people for 3 years about it. i plan on staying in playa den bossa when i go and will just take the disco bus to the clubs. i read a post in the west coast forum about a couple who just went for 2 weeks for $6000...personally i think that price seems extremely low for what 2 weeks for 2 people should cost there if ur partying every night but im not gunna argue. did u get a rental car?

Playa Den Bossa is a good place to be. My friend got a place that was called Hotel Garbi, it was an easy walk to space from it. I think 107 euro a night was the price he payed and it didnt seem that bad compared to the family resort I got stuck in. Me and the person I was with spent $2400 on the hotel (all inclusive food) and flight combined for both of us. Another $2200 in the bank that got spent. Really, $6000 would not be that bad for two weeks. My trip was done on a "budget", before i went I thought i would come back with money in the bank, lol. My first night out I learned otherwise and had to rethink my strategy. No rental car, and I am glad I did not get one. I hardly went out before 4pm and could walk anywhere i wanted to before I went out for the evening. The rental car would have just spent extra money and created more hassle with road checks etc.

Alot of things work differently over there. I did not like how I had to sneak in to my friends hotel just to go visit him and if caught faced the hotel guy trying to call the "policia local" on me. I am thinking of giving that guy an international call to cuss him out just because he cant touch me here. The inserting the hotel key card in my room to get power was rather new to me as well. Lots of things I had not seen covered in threads that could have been covered and I wished I would have known about. All in all, i was prepared enough and really thank god for this thread.

In other news. the DC10 opening and closing party is coming up, but really who is going to be there to go.
