Cool Hotels in Formentera



It's quite difficult to find a design-hip hotel in Formentera. The island is trendy, you can have dinner at:

- Can Carlos (Sant Francesc Xavier), number one!
- Casanita (Calle de Fonoll Marí - Es Pujols), we love fish.
- Chez Gerdi (Lugar Venda de ses Clotades - Es Pujols), to see and to be seen.
- CaNaPepa (Plaça de sa Constitució, 5 - Sant Francesc Xavier)
- Caminito (Es Pujols), if you wanna eat meat.

These are my advise, for a fantastic staying on the gecko's island:

- Es Ram Resort;
- Gecko;
- Talaya, my favourite for the position and the price (compared to the others).
