DJ Mag Names the Top 100 Clubs in the World | Hollywood Reporter 9:00pm PT by Portia Medina DJ Mag Names the Top 100 Clubs in the World Getty Images EDM Las Vegas makes its presence known on the global dance scene alongside hotspots in London, Brazil, Thailand and, of course, Ibiza. DJ Mag has become the premiere polling station of dance-music enthusiasts, releasing an oft-cited annual list of the world's top DJs, as well as this week's list of the Top 100 Clubs. Taking the No. 1 spot: Space Ibiza on the Spanish island, which sets the bar high even in that European clubbing metropolis. The club features a powerful Funktion One soundsystem, exuberant displays of slinky dancers on stilts and in barely-there outfits, nitrogen lunar blasts, hi-res LED screens and streams of lasers across a series of rooms. Previous resident DJs have included Carl Cox, Roger Sanchez, Nick Curly and James Zabiela. "Space represents who I am and what I'm about,” Cox tells the magazine.

“To be there now, giving something back, is really special to me." The family philosophy of the club, led by Pepe Rosello and his handpicked team, permeates Space throughout. PHOTOS: EDM Titans: Dance Music's 10 Highest Paid DJs Elsewhere in the top five, Brazil's Green Valley moved up one spot to No. 2. Another Ibiza favorite dating back to 1973, Pacha, came in at No. 3, making a two-place jump from last year. The warehouse-styled London club Fabrik fell two places to No. 4, and Singapore’s Zouk leapt four places, making it into the top five (the first time an Asian club has charted so high, according to fans). The biggest climber of the Top 100 Clubs was Marquee Nightclub & Dayclub in Las Vegas' Cosmopolitan Hotel, which catapulted 69 spots to No. 11. Not far behind: Vegas' Surrender/Encore Beach Club at No. 33, up 58 spots from 2012.

The Vegas club scene is indeed booming, thanks to residencies by such world-renowned DJs as Kaskade, Afrojack and Calvin Harris and cameos by Avicii, Dirty South and Arty. STORY: Electric Daisy Carnival Is 'Our Generation's Woodstock,' Says DJ Kaskade Several California clubs made the cut as well, among them Hollywood's Avalon (No. 58) and San Francisco’s Ruby Skye (No. 90). Miami made its presence known with the 300-capacity speakeasy Electric Pickle, at no. 64. Other highlights of the list include Bed Supperclub (No. 46), the undisputed king of the Thai clubbing circuit according to fans and DJ-producer Diplo, who says it's "one of the coolest clubs in the world, let alone Asia." Featuring a chic white interior, EV soundsystem crafted by Orbit Design Studio and 3D dynamics, it looks like something straight out of TRON Legacy. The full list of 2013's Top 100 Clubs can be found at DJmag.com . Did your favorite make the cut?

Crobar, Chicago Home to some of the best DJs in the world, Carl Cox's recent Mixed Live album was taped here.Chicago is a great party city. Surprisingly, the now-closed Shelter and Karma also got some nods, but Crobar came out on top. The combination of music, incredible sound, bar layout, and sexy women made it a finalist on this list. 4. Garden of Eden, Los Angeles With a name like this, you know you can only expect greatness. Parked in Hollywood at La Brea, GE is a beautiful club with an impressive metal job, sensual lighting and dark wood. A mecca-city for aspiring actors, the crowd is full of these. The place has nice bars and a cool balcony overlooking the dance floor, helpful for staking out the ladies. So leave the sneakers at home and hope for a top notch DJ. 3.

Privilege, Ibiza Three floors, a swimming pool, 10,000 clubbers — the largest club in the Europe, if not the world — it truly is a privilege to attend this hot spot on the beautiful Spanish island of Ibiza. Infamous for its 1980s history, when it was forced to shut down as the then-called KU. What do you expect when you mix supermodels, celebrities and rock stars with drug trafficking and the Mafia? A helluva party. 2. Twilo, NYC Editor's Note: This list was compiled before Twilo and Life closed. Very few clubs are on par with Twilo, with regular residencies by DJ John Digweed, Sasha and Paul Van Dyk. Twilo is the place to go in all of northeastern USA for crazy parties and drawn out sets that will knock you out for days. Factory and Life also deserve honorary mentions for popular clubs in NYC. 1.

Gatecrasher, Sheffield, UK Originally known for its steel industry and being the hometown of Def Leppard, Sheffield now boasts Gatecrasher, a monster club that plays home to some of the wildest music by, amongst others, 3-time DJ champ and master of the crowd Paul Oakenfold . Recently, deckmaster Max Graham became the latest top notch DJ to earn a residency at the club. While clubs like Cream did not make the list, Gatecrasher still rules the nightlife scene in Sheffield.

And the same goes for the eager revellers that flock to the tiny Spanish island every summer. Whether you’re an Ibiza regular or next year is your first adventure to the world’s biggest party island, here we compile a list of the very best European dance floors that you and your mates simply must check out.

#1: Pacha Arguably the biggest nightclub brand in world, Pacha nightclub is still very much the jewel in the crown of the Ibiza clubbing scene. Renowned for bringing a touch of class and style to clubbing on the island, this is the perfect spot for those seeking the VIP treatment. Pacha is located close to Ibiza Town, with taxis costing approximately €10 from the town centre. Buses also run regularly. Proceedings quick off at midnight, with tickets prices for most parties usually in the region of €30. #2: Privilege (Vista club) Dance Floor and Swimming Pool at Privilege Nightclub, Ibiza Privilege is, according to the Guinness Book of Records, the largest nightclub in the world. Particularly popular amongst British party-goers, the venue attracts up to 10,000 people through its doors every night. The quirky layout, including a heated swimming pool in the main arena, as well as its host of DJ’s, dancers and acrobats, offers a truly unique and unforgettable clubbing experience. Privilege is located in the San Rafael area, with the night again kicking off at midnight.

Tickets are a little on the pricey side at €50, and are often dearer on the door. So make sure you buy early! #3: Guarana Located in the quieter town of Santa Eualalia, Guarana bar offers a more chilled night out to the sometimes overwhelming club scenes found in areas such as Ibiza Town and San Antonio. With a wide variety of music on show, from rock to live jazz, its stunning marina-front location and opening hours until 6am, you’ll definitely not be disappointed by this alternative (by Ibiza’s standards) club night. #4: Es Paradis Again one of the oldest nightclubs on the island having opened its doors in 1975, the Es Paradis venue is characterised by its huge tin pyramid roof, while the decor inside is as equally spectacular. The club has 4 VIP areas, 3 bars and 3 dance floors… enough to keep the whole gang happy and partying long in to the night. Es Paradis is most famed for its ‘Fiesta del Agua’ (Water Party), held each Monday and Friday throughout the party season.

Located in the Sant Antoni, ticket prices for the Fiesta del Agua in 2013 were €34, so expect something similar in 2014. Guarana Bar, Ibiza #5: Amnesia Despite the name, a night at Amnesia is certainly not one you’ll forget in hurry. Winner of the Best Global Club on three occasions, the club can found in the San Antonio Road, less than a kilometre away from Privilege. Indeed both clubs are famous for their sunrise dance floors, having both originally been outdoor venues. The most popular nights at Amnesia are their Thursday ‘Cream’ parties, with a 5000 strong crowd packing out the 2 main dance floors. Given its unique ‘Expanded Amnesia Technology’ sound system, a night here is an absolute must for techno, trance and house fans. General admission price is €50, though you can experience some VIP treatment for an extra €25. #6: Space Also a three time winner of the ‘Best Global Club’, Space nightclub brings a whole different clubbing experience not found anywhere else in the world.

Found in Playa d’en Bossa on the outskirts of Ibiza Town, Space is infamous for its ‘We Love…’ party held every Sunday, with doors opening as early as 4:30pm and running right through until 6am. Said to be home to the island’s best electronic music, the club sports 5 different club rooms, guaranteed to have you dancing the night away. The first ‘We Love…’ party traditionally opens up the party season, so if you’re fortunate enough to arrive early on the island, there’s only one place to be… #7: Eden Having been completely renovated; structurally, aesthetically and musically, by its new owners in time for the 2013 season, Eden is now the second ‘superclub’ in the San Antonio area. Previously hosting sets from music powerhouses such as Faithless and Lady Gaga in the past, 2014 is sure to see Eden reborn as one of the island’s most popular clubs once more. Its new one giant club room, Garden of Eden themed decor and state of the art sound system are just some of the features that lie within… Not to be missed!

Given the scale of the place and when compared to other venues, tickets are priced at a very reasonable €32. Unlike most clubs however, Eden does enforce a fairly strict dress code… so no turning up in your beach wear! World's best party spots | CNN Travel 2. Marquee, Las Vegas, United States Playboy Playmates and Kim Kardashian have been spotted partying at Marquee. When in Sin City, check out the latest and coolest super club to hit the scene -- Marquee Nightclub , a humongous space with seven bars, a projection stage, LED DJ booth, massive outdoor pool and Colosseum-style banquette seating (Cosmopolitan Hotel, 3708 Las Vegas Boulevard South +1 877 551 7778). If you’re still up for more partying come Sunday afternoon, head to the hip Hard Rock Hotel for Rehab . This raging legendary pool party has been described as "Spring Break on steroids." (4455 Paradise Road, +1 702 693 5000). You can avoid queues and bouncer drama with Vegas VIP , a luxury travel agency specializing in VIP nightlife and party services.

Bachelors may enjoy the “Hangover Package” or the “Charlie Sheen,” with limo transfers and exclusive access to strip clubs Spearmint Rhino, Crazy Horse III and Sapphire. 3. Baronneti, Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Trust us, Baronneti is not usually this empty. New Year’s Eve and Carnival are some of the craziest times to visit sultry Rio De Janeiro, but even on a typical day, the party transcends the beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana. Dance clubs, cafés, restaurants and bars play the latest disco, house, trance, pop, funk and hip-hop. Baroneti, one of the best-known nightclubs in Ipanema, sports a stylish interior, a large dance floor and celebrity DJs (Rua Barão da Torre 354 Ipanema, +021 2522 1460, ). If you’re looking to club-hop, other hot spots include Sky Lounge in Lagoa; Melt in Leblon or large clubs like the Hard Rock Café in Barra. More beautiful people and frosted caipirinhas than you can handle. 4.

Paradise Club, Mykonos, Greece Sun worshipper by day, purple palm tree admirer by night. This Mediterranean island is a party playground for adults and one of the wildest of the Greek Islands. By day, many head to Paradise Beach for nude sun-worshippers and frat boy parties. At night, check out the newly opened Paradise Club (+306 937259034, ). The biggest club on the island hosts three levels, an exclusive VIP area, and a swimming pool where you can party under the moon. 5. The Calgary Stampede, Canada Beer, brawl and brawn. The Calgary Stampede , the world’s largest rodeo, draws an estimated 250,000 wannabe cowgirls and cowboys looking to drink beer, yell yee-haw and soak up the Wild West lifestyle. Activities include bull riding, barrel racing, steer wrestling, tie-down roping and chuck wagon racing and shots of Jägermeister. Next year’s event (July 6-15, 2012) marks the Stampede’s 100th anniversary so giddyap!

(+1 800 2610 1010) 6. Holi, India and in Hindu communities around the world If you want to give your wardrobe a makeover, now's the time. Holi is an annual two-day Hindu festival that takes place around the world every spring (next year's will be on March 8-9, 2012). Much like the Thai new year celebration, Songkran, Holi is a huge public water fight, but with a dash of color. Revelers fling powder and water at each other, turning devotees and the odd cow into walking canvasses, splattered head to toe in bright pinks, reds and blues. This religious event marks tradition, celebrates renewal and releases your inner Picasso. 7. Bay to Breakers, San Francisco, United States You feel sort of sorry for the serious runners caught up in this. A San Francisco tradition for nearly 100 years, Bay to Breakers is a 11-kilometer footrace and costume party held every third Sunday in May.

One of the world’s most colorful races, Bay to Breakers draws both serious athletes and goofy party types dressed in tutus, wigs, Elvis costumes or even nothing at all. Some 70,000 people gather downtown for live music, outdoor food and an awesome, alcohol-fueled post-run street celebration. 8. La Tomatina, Buñol, Spain We thought they were zombies, too, until we realized it's just tomato juice. Mom always said you shouldn’t play with your food … unless, that is, you’re at La Tomatina, a saucy tomato-throwing event that takes place the last Wednesday in August. A tradition since 1945, an estimated 30,000 revellers descend on the tiny town of Buñol to join the world’s largest food fight. This giant tomato-tossing fiesta is part of a week-long festival honoring their patron saint. Here are a few tips about participating in La Tomatina. 9. Burning Man, Black Rock City, United States Head this way for chemically induced happiness.

For one week, some 50,000 costume-clad visitors travel from all over the world to celebrate humanity, creativity, music, nudity, charity and chemically-induced happiness. Burning Man is a playground for adults with mutant art cars, massive art installations, fire jugglers and spiritual awakenings -- all culminating in the burning of an effigy of a man. This epic event runs on a full barter system and the only things you can buy are ice and coffee. It’s a sensory overload, a magical city, an exercise in desert survival -- and one helluva party. 10. Mardi Gras, New Orleans, United States Southern decadence at its best. For the quintessential Mardi Gras experience of beads, boobs and booze, head to Bourbon Street in the heart of New Orleans' French Quarter. There you’ll find masked partiers indulging in non-stop alcohol (which can be legally consumed in the street) and shenanigans before the threat of Lent kicks in. This street fest celebrates southern decadence with dollar beers, stiff whisky and "hand grenades," a potent potion of rum, gin, vodka, grain alcohol, melon liquor and mint that’s guaranteed to give you a hangover.

Santacon, cities around the world She's welcome in our chimney any time. Pictures thousands of drunk happy Santas roaming the city streets of New York City, London, Berlin, Beijing and more, singing dirty Christmas jingles, spanking Rudolph, spreading cheer and Peppermint schapps. This one-day event takes place mid-December and is a “non-denominational, non-commercial, non-political and nonsensical Santa Claus convention that occurs once a year for absolutely no reason,” according to the organizers. Santacon is a fun and always feisty way to rock the ho-ho-holiday. 12. Sky Bar, South Beach, Miami, United States The closest you can get to Morocco in Miami. Known for its luxurious beachfront boutique hotels, fancy restaurants and Spring Break party scene, South Beach along the "American Riviera" is the place to rock out. Sky Bar at the Shore Club (901 Collins Avenue +1 305 695 3288, ) offers a gigantic outdoor living room for mingling.

It’s a tropically landscaped garden of bougainvillea combined with an eclectic mix of Moroccan-inspired furniture, pillows and fountains. If you’re still up for more, check out Sanctuary Hotel's Roof Lounge. There's also Cameo, Mynt, Privé, Niki Beach and Mansion, the biggest club in South Beach (235 Washington Ave., +1 305 695 8411, ). A particularly good time to visit Miami is during the electronic Winter Music Conference . This event, in its 27th year, has been called the "Olympics for DJs," attracting electronic music artists from all over the world. Pacha opened during the hippie era, but it's still hip today. Playfully nicknamed the "Gomorrah of the Mediterranean Sea," Ibiza is the European capital of party. Especially popular with British tourists, this Spanish island boasts legendary clubs such as Pacha. Best known for its house music in the main room, this super-club also hosts five rooms blasting different genres.

Rock out in the Funky Room for a little soulful disco or head up to the rooftop terrace for a cocktail or some mid-party sushi (Avinguda del Vuit d'Agost, +34 971 313 600, ). One of the birthplaces of the rave and the foam party, Ibiza is the place to go if you’re craving Ministry of Sound–style madness. For a list of upcoming events and world-class DJ appearances, check out Ibiza Spotlight . 14. Le Bar, Buenos Aires, Argentina The classy Le Bar is a welcome relief from Buenos Aires' dance club scene Trendy restaurants, hot bars, all-night dance clubs; the capital city of Argentina is well known for its red wine, fine steak and night-owl culture. It’s very easy to find yourself still up way past sunrise. For an alternative to the dance club scene, head to Le Bar , a popular French martini lounge in the centre of the city, that comes complete with elaborate cocktails, a friendly crowd and huge outdoor rooftop lounge (Tucumán 422; +54 5219 0858, lebarbuenosaires.blogspot.com ). 15.

Nasa, Reykjavik, Iceland Yes, the do actually party hard in the hometown of Sigur Rós. Home to far-out rockers like Björk, Iceland’s capital city is also known for its big night scene with a small-town vibe. For those who love to bar-hop, Reykjavik's signature "runtur" sees patrons cruise from bar to bar past 4 a.m. on the weekends sipping on Reyka, a locally distilled lava-rock filtered vodka. While most of the action is concentrated on Laugavegur and Austurstræti, a classic clubbing choice is Nasa, one of the main venues for live music, ranging from jazz to hardcore rock. Complete with strobe lights, Reykajavik’s biggest nightclub will play all your favorite party anthems. (Austurvöllur City Centre, 511 1313, ) Number 10 in the 'Top 100 Most Popular DJs in the World of All Time' list: Roger Sanchez - Dash Berlin World Dash Berlin World View Blog Roger Sanchez (born on June 1, 1967) is an American (of Dominican descent) house music DJ.

Eventually he found success and began to play nightclubs in New York City, and later around the world. Along with fellow New York house DJs David Morales and Danny Tenaglia, Sanchez has become well known in the European party scene, especially on the Spanish island of Ibiza.

Views: 2027 Las Vegas: Electronic dance music capital of the world? - latimes June 24, 2011 |By Jessica Gelt, Los Angeles Times Guests party at Surrender nightclub at Encore Las Vegas during the early… (Isaac Brekken, Los Angeles…) It was Memorial Day weekend 2010 and the internationally famous American DJ Kaskade was standing in his hotel room on the 35th floor of the Encore hotel in Las Vegas looking down on the pool of the just-opened Encore Beach Club. "There were thousands of people inside, and I could see thousands of people trying to get in," said Kaskade, whose real name is Ryan Raddon, by phone recently from Brazil, where he was due to spin that night.

"When it was over, we were grinning ear to ear." That day marked the beginning of Kaskade's weekly summer residency at Encore Beach Club, which met with unprecedented success and went a long way toward proving what many in that city's nightlife industry had been saying since 2008: Las Vegas is fast morphing into the electronic dance music capital of the world, beating even Ibiza, the Spanish island long known for its hedonistic nightlife and top-name talent. The electronic music craze is in turn driving the city's expanding nightlife scene. Nightlife baron Sean Christie, the man behind Encore Beach Club, says the nightclub business has floated Vegas during the recession and has grown by as much 20% annually over the last five years. Vegas is adding between three and five major nightclubs per year and now has more than 50. According to Nightclub & Bar Magazine and the food service industry research and consulting firm Technomic Inc., which produce an annual list of the nation's leading nightclubs, bars and lounges, Vegas nightclubs account for 12 of the top 20. The survey reported that XS, at the Encore hotel and No.

1 on its list, had nearly $60 million in revenue in 2010. . That's not to mention Vegas' thriving pool party scene, which also traffics in the popularity of DJs and house music. And Vegas nightclubs are multimillion-dollar, multilevel temples to revelry. Take this year's hottest new club, Marquee at the Cosmopolitan hotel, a $50-million, 60,000-square-foot palace with coliseum-style seating and two dance floors. "The layout of the entire room is focused on the DJ," says co-founder Jason Strauss, adding that Marquee was the first club on the Las Vegas Strip to commit to electronic music programming on both Friday and Saturday nights. This weekend adds significant credibility to the "Vegas is the new Ibiza" claim, as North America's largest electronic dance music festival, the Electric Daisy Carnival, comes to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It will feature more than 150 artists with attendance projected to top 250,000, according to Pasquale Rotella, chief executive and founder of Insomniac Events, which produces the festival.

"If you had told me five years ago that Vegas would be the global hot spot for electronic music — even three years ago — I would say that you got it wrong," said Kaskade. "But this music is finally having its time in North America. It's always been a niche, boutique thing, but now when you turn on the radio you hear JLo [Jennifer Lopez] and Britney Spears copying the music we've been making for 10 years. And Vegas is indicative of that, it's mirroring what's happening." The boom in electronic music isn't all sizzling dance moves, however. The genre has long been known to attract a young crowd that is prone to experiments with drugs, particularly Ecstasy. A 19-year-old died at the Electric Daisy Carnival in Dallas this month, and a 15-year-old died of an Ecstasy overdose at last year's event at the Coliseum in Los Angeles, although Rotella says that "as tragic of a situation as that was, it wasn't why we took EDC to Vegas." Meanwhile, Las Vegas police said they will bring extra vigilance to the festival, deploying undercover narcotics officers to augment the more than 1,000 private security personnel.

Whatever happens this weekend, however, it's not likely to hinder the Vegas challenge to European hot spots as a dance capital. Clubs here are now part of the regular circuit of globe-trotting DJs such as Tiësto, Paul van Dyk, David Guetta, Dirty South, Kaskade, Deadmau5 and Armin van Buuren. Veterans of the club scene here trace the rise to 2008, when British DJ Paul Oakenfold began a long-term residency at the Palm's nightclub Rain. Oakenfold's agent, Joel Zimmerman, head of William Morris Endeavor's electronic division, says his agency has seen a sharp increase in Vegas bookings for its clients in the last year alone. "The casinos are spending a lot of money marketing their nightclubs and branding the DJs with them," says Zimmerman.

And because Vegas is a transient market, "if you do more volume in Vegas over a period of time, you hit a humungous population base, which is the reason we would actually say to an artist, 'Why don't you play in Vegas 20 times this year?'" "We'll spend the money to bring in the biggest DJs," said Jesse Waits, managing partner of XS and Tryst at Encore and Wynn. "It has become super competitive, there's a lot of schmoozing and wining and dining for sure." Christie, who in addition to his role at Encore Beach Club is also an operating partner of Surrender nightclub at Encore, where Steve Aoki is the resident DJ and musical director, says that this year's Memorial Day weekend was the biggest the city has ever seen in terms of nightclubs and pool parties. "As a whole, it was the most traffic I've seen coming into town. Outside of major festivals, I don't know that there has been that kind of collection of talent in one city in America.

We had pretty much every major DJ in one town." ° Guide: Figueretes in Spain (Balearic Islands) | Tripmondo The picture Ibiza- preparándose una tormenta was uploaded and shared by user Carmen S. on panoramio.com by: Carmen S.

Alex Zane raves on... with his ultimate guide to Ibiza | Daily Mail Online Alex Zane may be a well-known music-lover, but he is happy to avoid Ibiza's sprawling nightclubs He may be a well-known music-lover having hosted high-profile shows on MTV, XFM and NME Radio. But Alex Zane reveals he more than happy to shun the masses of Ibiza's hard-partying tourists, booming beats and sprawling nightclubs to take a trip to the north of the island, which is littered with breath-taking beaches. The 35-year-old presenter says the Spanish island has 'two characters' explaining the tranquil villages and peaceful orange groves are just a bike-ride away and offer the opportunity to 'live like a local'. Read our Q and A with Alex to find out how he spends his time on the island.

Many people are cautious of visiting Ibiza as they think it's all about clubbing and rowdy youngsters. But what else has the island got to offer? 'Ibiza is an island of two characters; the south which is devoted to the mega clubs and party-goers and the other, lesser known Northern side of the island, which is peaceful, tranquil and full of unspoilt beauty. Of course, the boundaries aren't as clear cut as this, but for every all-night DJ session there is an early morning sunrise at one of the many breath-taking little coves that litter the Island. The nightlife may have gained a reputation for the island amongst tourists, but it's this other side to Ibiza that the locals rave about. If you are one of the 50 per cent of Brits who, according to research by American Express, are after the authentic experience of 'living like a local', then the best way to explore this quieter side of the island is to hop on a bike and get off the beaten track to explore the many villages, peaceful orange groves and quaint little restaurants that tourists don't usually get to experience.

I guarantee you won't hear a baseline the whole time you are there.' Alex Zane recommends escaping Ibiza's crowded clubbing areas and visiting the island's northern coast. Beaches such as Cala de Sant Vicent (pictured) can be found on the North East of Ibiza Best restaurant? 'My favourite restaurant on the island is a little family owned place called Sabores Naturales in the centre of the small town of San Juan. It's got a quiet courtyard outside where you can just sit, relax, eat, drink and let time pass you by without a care. All the food is vegetarian and organic with fresh fruit juices and, in my opinion, the best homemade pizza on the island.' RELATED ARTICLES Share Best beach? 'Picking my favourite beach in Ibiza is a bit of a tricky one. If I did have to choose though, it would probably be Cala Xuclar. It felt like I was on a tropical beach without the long-haul flying.

With great views and white sand, combined with a few fisherman's huts and a tiny kiosk serving food, it was the perfect place to escape from it all.' Great outdoors: Alex Zane loves the party side of Ibiza but also enjoys going out exploring Best place to stay? 'If you are going in search of sunset bike rides and early morning strolls around the old towns, then I'd advise staying in any one of the boutique hotels in the north of the island, like the Hotel Hacienda Na Xamena, with its series of spa pools and waterfalls built into the cliff face. We stayed in Can Curreu and it's safe to say that that the view from the breakfast table made the early starts much better.' Your favourite thing about Ibiza and why? 'My favourite thing about Ibiza is discovering the hidden gems of the island. When you say to people you are heading on holiday to Ibiza, they immediately imagine rows of sun beds on the beaches and overcrowded bars blasting out music. Yet you only need to venture a little off the tourist trails and, even in peak season, you can find stunning, empty beaches and relaxing places to sit for a drink.

Perhaps the island's reputation has meant less people visit Ibiza in search of a rejuvenating holiday. For whatever the reason, they're missing out.' The ultimate island guide: Alex produced his quick guide to what is great about Ibiza What are your packing essentials? 'Packing light is the key if, like me, you enjoy moving around a lot. There's nothing worse than heaving a giant case jammed full of clothes to lug on and off various forms of transport. As long as you've got one smart outfit in there and the facilities to clean it you'll be fine. And if you don't have the facilities to clean it, you're probably not in a place you're going to need it in the first place.' Which destination is top of your wishlist? 'I'd like to explore more of South America. I've seen a lot of Brazil: Rio, Sao Paulo and up to Manaus and then deep into the Rain forest, but that's it. I'd really like to go further south to Argentina.' What is your earliest travel memory? 'Scotland. I remember being in Scotland so much as a kid. My mum often took myself and my brother to stay on the West Coast.

We spent time on Skye, around Oban and Arisaig and then on the banks of Loch Awe. It is still one of my favourite places in the world to spend time… stunning scenery, wild weather and fascinating history.'
