4K Ultra HD virtual walking tour along Cala d'en Serra and abandoned hotel!

Cala d'en Serra beach is located on the most northerly tip of the island, close to the Portinatx. Considered a beautiful and peaceful paradise, this sandy beach is the perfect secluded place in Ibiza. It was once named one of Europe’s top beaches by the Guardian newspaper. What makes this beach truly special is the abandoned resort situated just meters above the beach.

This building project was started in 1969 by acclaimed Catalan Architect Josep Lluís Sert, who was exiled in the United States at the time, was planned to be a luxury hotel resort complex. By the middle of the 1970s a lot of work had already been completed but project was put on hold, and then abandoned completely in 1983.

In the following years there have been many proposals and heated debates over what should be done with the half finished project. Many islanders consider the half constructed hotel a blight on an area of outstanding natural beauty while others see the project as an important piece of cultural heritage. In the year 2000 plans were drawn up to complete the complex for use as an exclusive tourist attraction and Thalassotherapy centre. These plans were also eventually abandoned, mainly due to the world banking crisis and the subsequent downturn in the island tourist economy.
