ikes is an Ibizan institution, steeped in rock ’n’ roll history
and brimming with personality. Its famous aquamarine
pool was the location for a young, tanned and toned
George Michael in Wham!’s Club Tropicana video, and
people are drawn to the hotel where legends like Grace
Jones, Spandau Ballet, Kylie Minogue, Fatboy Slim,
Naomi Campbell, Arctic Monkeys and many more have
partied all night long. Freddie Mercury loved it and
his 41st birthday was the most lavish party ever seen on the island; his
first performance of Barcelona was in the Potting Shed on the back terrace.
In 2011, Dawn Hindle and Andy McKay, founders of Manumission, took
over the hotel from original owner Tony Pike and ensured his vision would
continue. They brought in the Room 39 restaurant and, most recently, The
Curiosity Shop, serving some of the most exciting cocktails on the island...Iconic Ibizan hotel Pikes
embodies the hedonistic vibe
of the island. Bring the party
