San Miguel, North Ibiza
Hacienda Na Xamena
A 5 star clifftop hotel above San Miguel with infinity pools that hang over the Mediterranean and one of the most spectacular sunset views in Spain.
Hacienda Na Xamena opened in 1971 and remains the most architecturally dramatic hotel on Ibiza. It sits on a cliff 180 metres above the sea on the north coast, with terraces and pools that descend the cliff face. Wedding content here has a vertical, almost cinematic quality that flat coastal venues cannot replicate. The signature shot is a couple framed against the multilevel infinity pools at sunset, with the open Mediterranean as background. In the summer months the sun sets to the north west, out over the open sea in front of the cliff.
Best Suited For
- ✦Luxury weddings of 50 to 150 guests
- ✦Drone content (with permits) over the multilevel pools
- ✦Couples wanting dramatic vertical compositions
- ✦Multi day celebrations with hotel stays for guests
Content Tips at Hacienda Na Xamena
Specific notes from filming weddings at this venue.
The lower pool terrace is the hero shot at Hacienda Na Xamena. Frame the couple against the cascade of pools with the sea behind. This is the venue defining image.
Sunrise content at Na Xamena is overlooked. The east terrace catches first light over the cliffs and produces a distinctly different aesthetic for getting ready and breakfast content.
Drone shots require advance permission from the hotel. If approved, a 30 second drone descent down the pool levels at sunset is the most impactful single clip you can capture.
The spa terrace is the strongest indoor location for portrait content if weather is poor. Stone, water, and sea views work in any conditions.
Golden Hour Note
Hacienda Na Xamena faces the open sea to the north west, so from May to August the sun goes down over the water in front of the cliff. In late April and October it sets further to the west, so check the angle for your date.
Capacity & Format
50 to 150 guests (50 adult minimum), Los Nidos up to 30
Frequently Asked Questions
Is drone content allowed at Hacienda Na Xamena weddings?
Drone use requires advance hotel approval and Spanish AESA pilot certification. When permitted, the multilevel pool descent is the most striking aerial shot in Ibiza wedding content.
What makes the sunset at Na Xamena different?
The cliff faces the open sea to the north west, so in summer the sun sets over the water right in front of you, 180 metres up. Plan couple portraits for the forty minutes before sunset, before the party moves indoors.
Can guests stay at Hacienda Na Xamena for the wedding?
Yes. Hacienda Na Xamena is a working hotel with around 70 rooms and suites, so a large part of the guest list can stay on site, which simplifies multi day content coverage.
