If you're the sort of person who's always down the front at a gig, always the first online for tickets, and always knows what's hot and what's not, then, quite simply, the Ibiza Rocks Hotel is the place for you.

Every summer sees the White Island melt into a frenzy of live music. And the place that puts you right in the thick of it? Here. Now in its 3rd year, the Ibiza Rocks Hotel stages live gigs in its own poolside courtyard. Previous acts include Dizzee Rascal, Calvin Harris, The Ting Tings, MGMT, Florence and The Machine and The Arctic Monkeys. Its also been the official home of the famous Radio 1 Weekender for the last two summers. And the icing on the cake? Staying at the hotel guarantees you entry into the hottest gig in town - all bookings now include a free gig ticket. As for the gigs, they're the only place to be every Tuesday between 8th June and the 14th September, so whenever you decide to stay during the summer, you're sorted.

Looks-wise, step inside the place and you'll be forgiven for thinking you've stepped into a rock god's palace with a taste for quirky. With bronze camels, a vintage bath sawn in half to make seats, and a jukebox loaded with tracks from Ibiza Rocks DJs, this lobby is about as far from predictable as it gets.

Outside, meanwhile, you've got two pools and the same number of poolside bars. And that's just the start of things. Add the Ibiza Rocks stage, which hosts live DJ sets and appearances from all the hot new bands, plus poolside pre-parties with surprise guests, and things start to look a bit lively. But there are chill-out zones, too. You've got two lounges, a gym and a five-a-side football area, making this place a real all-rounder. And that's not forgetting The Xbox Social gaming room, with the most up-to-date games and a Guitar Hero stage for all the rock stars out there.

What's more, you'll be sharing all this with a bunch of like-minded people into the same thing. And you know it'll be a whole load of people because this place is huge. There are 368 studios and apartments in total. The most popular room types are those overlooking the main pool, where the Ibiza Rocks live stage is. Book one of these and you can soak up the daytime pool parties and, on Tuesday nights, revel in the atmosphere of the legendary Ibiza Rocks gigs, all from your own private balcony. Whichever one you choose, a kitchenette and a balcony come as standard.
