Top celebrities to spot in Ibiza this summer

Ibiza is especially popular with footballers, including the two highest paid players in the world - Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Lionel Messi

Year after year Leo Messi can be seen sunbathing aboard a luxury yacht just off the White Isle's coast with his wife Antonella Rocuzzo and their children. The eight-time Ballon d'Or winner bought a boutique hotel on the island in the spring of 2018, MiM Ibiza Es Vivé Hotel in Figueretes Beach is near Ibiza Town and Playa d'en Bossa with all its beach clubs and nightclubs. 

Even though he lives in Florida these days, Messi has clearly got some strong roots on the island.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Five-time Ballon d'Or winner and football megastar Cristiano Ronaldo usually chooses Ibiza for a well-deserved break (or two) every summer.

After his spell with Real Madrid from 2009 to 2018, when he frequently visited the island, he has kept coming to the White Isle regularly since. With his family and long-time girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez he is known to party at the Lio Ibiza nightclub, a popular celebrity hotspot. Cristiano has even expressed his wish to open a hotel of his CR7 chain on the island.

Zinedine Zidane

The acclaimed French footballer and ex-Real Madrid coach has a villa in Talamanca. 

He can often be seen enjoying the Ibiza sun aboard his yacht with his wife and sons. With his strong ties to Spain, having spent many years coaching and leading the Spanish team to great success, he will probably head to his holiday home on the White Isle again this summer. Here, he'll be able to relax and find peace and quiet with his family.

Leonardo diCaprio

Not the first and certainly not the last Hollywood star to grace the Ibizan shores on board a luxury yacht, Leo and his entourage are well known regulars. 

Usually papped with best pal Tobey Maguire in tow, along with whichever model he's currently dating you can expect to see them partying at the superclubs and lunching at one of the best spots for people watching, Casa Jondal, the latest addition to the Ibiza's beach restaurant scene. 

Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender

One of Hollywood's power couples, they tied the knot in Ibiza back in 2017. Often seen around the island both prior to their nuptials and after, they can be found wandering through Ibiza Town, taking luxurious yacht charters, and socialising with friends. We're pretty sure they'll keep flying over here regularly in the summers to continue celebrating their anniversary in the same place where they got hitched.

Other movie stars 

Those also drawn to the island include Salma Hayek and her husband, Will Smith with his family, Nicole Kidman with her brood - all here to enjoy the relative privacy, the relaxed glamour and luxurious surroundings.

James Blunt

The island's appeal to musicians has seen many famous artists call Ibiza their home, such as James Blunt who purchased a £1.7 million home there in 2006 and regulary commutes back and forth between his homes in the UK and Switzerland.

Ed Sheeran

Ed has been a regular here for many years, performing at numerous clubs and festivals. Whilst here he keeps a low profile, but is occasionally spotted out and about, hidden under a baseball cap. 

Dua Lipa

Frequently spotted enjoying the beaches, nightlife and exclusive parties the island is well-known for, Dua and her crew usually take a break here during the summer.

Calvin Harris

A fixture on the island, this superstar DJ is often here for work and pleasure alongside his TV and radio presenter wife Vick Hope. His sprawling organic farm retreat ‘Terra Masia’ is where he reportedly proposed to Vick, and they continue to spend their summers there whilst Harris fulfils his residency obligations at Ushuai Ibiza.

Spanish tennis star Rafael Nadal has both a personal and a financial relationship with Ibiza.

He not only joint-owns a restaurant with friends on the White Isle - Tatel in Ibiza Town, he also  co-owns one of the hotel complexes owned by Palladium Hotel Group.

Rafa always spends some time every summer relaxing and training on his home turf on the neighbouring island of Mallorca and he tends to hop over to the White Isle regularly for a break, charting his super-luxury yacht between the Balearic islands. Keep an eye out for him around the Marina on his yacht, or exploring Ibiza Town.

Mick Jagger's jewellery designer daughter usually spends every summer at her 400-year-old finca in the small northern village of San Juan, where she comes with the whole family to escape the hustle and bustle of London. 

She bought the house in 1998 and, since then, it has become a haven for some of her most famous friends, such as supermodel Kate Moss, who is usually seen spending part of her summer break visiting Jade on the island, or sister Georgia May. You're likely to spy her in her favourite spot on the island, taking a dip in Cala Xuclar.

Kendall Jenner

Kendall Jenner and friends take their yachts and flit between the Balearics for sunbathing, lunching, partying and hiring exclusive hidden away villas. 

Naomi Campbell

Naomi Campbell has been coming here on holiday for many years, enjoying yacht parties, the club scene and hanging out with the numerous friends she's made here over the years. 

Alessandra Ambrosio

A White Isle regular, Brazilian supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio can be spotted sunbathing and swimming in Ibiza's world-renowned beaches every summer. She's sometimes accompanied by a group of other Victoria's Angels including Shanina Shaik and Candice Swanepoel.
