It wasn’t even 12 month ago when we all first heard the news about The people behind Ibiza Rocks and Manumission opening a new hotel in San Antonio, Ill be the first to admit i had my doubts when i first found out about it (initial thoughts were that it was a twenties hotel) However how wrong was I! Ibiza Rocks hotel had an amazing first year by all accounts with Radio 1 taking over for the weekend, i was only lucky enough to keep track online but nobody could deny it all fit together like and and glove.

I’m sure this year was only the warm up, Next year i expect to be even better. Nice whats the point of this i hear you say! Well because last year was such a success I’m sure plenty of people would love to go again next year, The people who run the Facebook profile for Ibiza Rocks Hotel are now saying that the rooms for 2009 are selling out quick!

Ive heard myself many people booking repeat visits to the hotel as soon as they got back so if you want to check it out i would make a move sooner rather than later.

According to the website if you book your holiday before December 31st then you can get rooms for as little as £10 per person per night which means providing there are no hidden costs its £140 for the fortnight before flights and transfer. New to 2009 is the ability to book rooms with  Pool view so you get to see the bands from your balcony!

Ibiza Rocks has quite literally rocked it all summer and ive not heard a bad word about any of it. If your around then why not check out the Ibiza Rocks Closing party on the 9th October when they have Pendulum headlining and they also have the Whip playing.

I know its not the end of the sumer yet and it pains me to even contemplate talking about closing parties yet but Ibiza rocks have released a lineup for there closing party. The Whip and LA’s hardcore party purveyors Iglu & Hartly will be playing alongside the closing parties headliners Pendulum on the 9th september.

Pendulum are enjoying great success this year perfroming at plenty off festivals and they have a great remix of the prodigy which has been going down a storm!

Its been anounced that the Enemy will play the Opening party of the Ibiza Rocks Hotel for 2008. As revealed on this blog in a comment from Ibiza Rocks the hotel will open on the 31st May with the Ibiza Rocks night kicking of from mid June. As part of the opening Ibiza rocks are offering a package for people to go to the opening night. You can stay in the Ibiza Rocks Hotel for 3 nights and get tickets for the Gig for only £75.

This seems like outstanding value though im not sure at this point weather that includes flights. or if its hotel only.

Taking a look round the website it seems like everything is being done to make this a very memorable place to stay.
