W Hotels is bringing its W Escape brand to Ibiza.

The new beachfront property, W Ibiza, provides direct access to the Mediterranean Sea and is scheduled to open in the summer of 2019.

The latest addition to the W Hotels portfolio in Spain, the company will have four hotels in the country as of 2021. This includes a W Madrid (also scheduled to open in 2019), W Marbella, which is coming online in 2021 and the existing W property in Barcelona.

The W Ibiza is part of Marriott International and is owned by Inversions Hoteleres Ebza S.L. It will be located in Ibiza's the Santa Eulalia del Rio neighborhood and centrally located to nightclubs and inland attractions.

"With its playful energy and bohemian spirit, Ibiza is an ideal destination and perfect match for W Hotels," Anthony Ingham, global brand leader, W Hotels Worldwide, said in a statement. "We have been present in Ibiza since 2010 with a variety of W music events and partnerships, so we're thrilled to be finally opening a W Hotel on the island that we know our guests love."

The forthcoming property will embrace the destination's eclectic roots by incorporating bold and innovative design.

There will be three distinct concepts designed for dining, drinking and relaxing, as well as a rooftop sunset bar and adults only WET Deck, the brand's signature take on the poolside scene.

A second WET Deck will provide direct access to the beachfront promenade and the white sands of Santa Eulalia beach, which guests will be able to enjoy from W Ibiza's very own 'Chiringuito,' the brand's elevated take on the quintessential beach bars of Ibiza.

When ready to detox, guests can enjoy a 4,000-square-foot Away Spa that will include seven private treatment rooms and the brand's signature FIT gym experience.

The 162 guestrooms and suites meanwhile, will bring a new level of eclectic luxury to the Isle, with numerous W comforts to ensure guests are fully recharged for the night ahead. The property will also include W's Whatever/Whenever service, which is available 24/7.

W Ibiza joins a portfolio of more than 50 W Hotels worldwide including recently opened locations such as W Shanghai - The Bund and W Goa. The hotel will also be the 13th W Escape, the brand's playfully luxe take on the traditional resort experience, which includes sand, ski and entertainment destinations around the world.

Each W Escape provides a signature Sunset Beats ritual to warm up for the night ahead, while also offering epic experiences for adrenaline-seekers and lounge junkies alike (think shaman healings at W Bali or private DJ master classes at W Barcelona).
