At ENERO we took on the complete renovation and modernization of the four-star The New Algarb hotel, one of the most important hotels near Ibiza’s Playa d’en Bossa beach. It was another chance to demonstrate our team’s outstanding craftsmanship throughout all phases of the project, adapting to client requirements and to the singular context of the building.
The New Algarb hotel is one of the principal properties of the Playasol Ibiza Hotel chain as much as for its size (364 double rooms, 40 single rooms, and 2 suites) as for its direct access to Playa d’en Bossa beach, the largest and most famous of the island. Hence the need to improve quality standards for the facility and increase comfort by emphasizing and trying to make the most of the Mediterranean landscape and light for today’s exacting guests. The common areas and suites were redone to appropriately decorate these spaces, and the facade and general facilities of the building were also updated.
Of a total area of 21,000 m2, 3,500 m2 were remodeled in the interior, and 2,000 m2 of the amazing garden were improved. The 2,300-m2 lobby and reception area, where shopsa cocktail bar, and the night life area are located, was modernized by highlighting the magnificent views of the gardens and Mediterranean Sea, the grand windows drawing in the warm Ibizan light. The renovation of the pool area was consonant with the large dimensions of the hotel and its high occupancy: the Quib Pool Bar and beach area were created, along with optimizing the garden and shady areas.
The renovation of Tokyo Restaurant, with an area of 1,200 m2 and 400 seats, was completed during the seasonal closings of the hotel so as to not interrupt normal hotel operations. The restaurant is in a prime location and decorated and furnished in the same festive style as the island, and where interactions among diners are easy-going. The design helped in the creation of adaptable and thematic gastronomic spaces for a buffet-type restaurant which features a cooking show concept. The exterior terraces were also enhanced for the enjoyment of hotel guests.
The renovation of the Shamal and Janub suites required a design study to place these large residences within the building, each of which is surrounded by a huge terrace with Mediterranean views. The suites on the upper floors of the building are unique and thanks to their spaciousness, guests can savor the panoramic views and delight in the special island atmosphere during their entire stay.
