Ibiza might have a reputation for parties and excess, but it has another, more luxurious and restorative side too. Take yourself away from the clubs and late nights, and you’ll find this beautiful island has a softer, sensory-driven rhythm that is endlessly enchanting.
Ibiza’s pristine environment and climate make it the perfect destination for beauty and wellness experiences. From cliffside spas and holistic rituals to poolside recovery and nutrition-led breakfasts, this iconic Balearic island offers some of the world’s leading wellness resorts and intimate boutique escapes.
Few wellness escapes in Ibiza feel as cinematic as Hacienda Na Xamena . Suspended above the sea on the island’s northern cliffs, the hotel offers a dramatic setting that makes slowing down feel instinctive.
Its appeal runs deeper than the view, though, as it pairs old-school Ibizan glamour with a thoughtfully rounded wellness experience. The property combines its Spa La Posidonia , outdoor wellness experiences, multiple pools and gastronomic spaces into something that feels expansive, polished and effortless to explore.
Spa La Posidonia is the heart of the experience and offers body treatments, SkinCeuticals facials and signature massage rituals, alongside yoga and hikes that extend the wellness focus beyond the treatment room. What elevates it beyond a spa and into a sanctuary is the resort’s famed Cascadas Suspendidas.
This outdoor circuit of eight hydrotherapy pools is heated to three temperatures, designed to deliver high-pressure hydromassage from head to toe while looking out over the Mediterranean. It is exactly the kind of destination ritual that makes a hotel memorable: part spa treatment, part landscape experience, part reset button.
There is also a strong gastronomic thread running through the hotel. Hacienda’s dining offer includes Edén Restaurant , where Mediterranean cuisine is served against sweeping sunset views. The poolside dining, meanwhile, keeps things lighter and more relaxed with avocado salads, club sandwiches, burgers, delicate tapas and vegetarian options.
Breakfast is equally generous here, with international and local selections, pancakes, crêpes, egg dishes and fresh fruit from the organic garden. For a beauty-and-wellness traveller, that balance matters: the hotel understands that indulgence and nourishment do not have to sit at opposite ends of the spectrum.
For a more contemporary take on wellbeing, Soho Health Club at Soho Farmhouse Ibiza brings a sharper, more performance-led energy. Set within a working olive grove in Santa Gertrudis, it’s a place to exercise, recover and recalibrate, combining a sophisticated fitness setup with hot and cold therapies, pools and treatment-led recovery. The result is a wellness space that is social and stylish, but still serious about how the body moves and heals.

The gym spans indoor and outdoor space, with Technogym machines, free weights and access to personal training. A movement deck hosts regular classes, including Restore, Form and Power sessions, alongside more Ibiza-specific offerings such as Myofascial Flow, designed to reset the body and calm the nervous system.
Recovery is treated as equally important, with contrast suites that offer hot-and-cold therapies. There are also traditional Japanese onsen-style baths, and the wider Soho Farmhouse Ibiza setup includes a sauna, steam room, ice baths and swimming pools surrounded by loungers. If you want to focus on your wellness to feel active, current and intelligently guided, this is one of the island’s best options.
At Mikasa Ibiza , the morning ritual is the main event. The hotel’s breakfast offering is built around a flexible vegan concept served from 8 am until midday and is utterly spectacular. It is stylish, health-conscious and grounded in the idea that how you begin the day shapes everything that follows.

The menu is designed to be both energising and easy. Guests can expect a buffet built around healthy options, alongside homemade toasts, eggs made to order, fresh juices, smoothies and coffee. Getaways to Ibiza often lead to breakfast becoming an afterthought, but Mikasa turns it into a humble and delicious act of self-care.
With the iconic Es Vedrà rising in the distance and fragrant gardens framing the property, Petunia Ibiza offers a more introspective style of wellbeing. The setting alone does a lot of the heavy lifting here, with ocean calm, sun-washed brilliance and a pared-back aesthetic.
It feels built for exhaling. Petunia’s wellness offer goes beyond atmosphere though, leaning into customised holistic experiences that speak to a growing demand for beauty and wellness that is emotional and energetic, not purely physical.

Its comprehensive wellness programming includes holistic healing and energy work, movement practices such as Pilates, Pilates Reformer and Animal Flow, and mindfulness sessions designed to reconnect guests with breath, movement and stillness. Petunia also offers a wide assortment of treatments for you to enjoy. The speciality is massages focused on relieving muscular tension, nourishing the skin and promoting relaxation.
For something more intimate, Las Mimosas delivers a boutique version of the Ibiza wellness escape. Located near San Antonio Bay, the hotel combines an easy-going pool culture with a private spa, small gym and a social calendar that gives the property a livelier edge than more meditative retreats. That blend is part of its appeal, offering pampering and atmosphere in equal measure.

Its wellness facilities include a spa with sauna, jacuzzi, Turkish bath and beauty treatments that are truly rejuvenating. The pool remains central to the experience here, with Balinese beds and day-pass options that combine swimming, spa access and food-and-drink credit.
Las Mimosas also weaves music into its version of relaxation, regularly animating the space with live performances and seasonal events. The overall vibe makes it a strong choice for travellers who want beauty and wellness with a little more social sparkle. Here, you have somewhere to swim, reset and then drift into an evening that feels distinctly Ibiza.

There was a time when the gym bag was something you tried to hide before heading anywhere else; ALO would now like us to consider the possibility that it might be the best-looking thing we carry all day. For Autumn/Winter 2026 , the Los Angeles wellness label returns with the second chapter of its handbag collection, bringing new silhouettes, Italian-made leather, a clever new take on mesh and, for the first time, a full range of small leather goods.
Following the previous collaborations with Bella Hadid and Kylie Jenner , the latest collection is taken over by fashion photographer Steven Meisel, who returns with a high-energy campaign featuring supermodels Amelia Gray , Candice Swanepoel and Daiane Sodré alongside newcomers Ming Xi and Natasha Poly .
“Building on the iconic visual language of our first bag campaign, we wanted to evolve the story through new faces, unexpected propping, and a greater sense of movement,” says Summer Nacewicz , ALO’s Executive Vice President of Marketing & Creative. “Steven brought an energy to the imagery that feels both sexy and inherently sporty – capturing the confidence, magnetism, and momentum that define the women who carry these bags.”

At the centre of the collection is the new Unwind Cinch, a softly structured silhouette arriving in medium and mini sizes, with the proportions designed to accommodate the realities of daily life without looking remotely like standard gym equipment. The bag comes in black, espresso and warm gravel, with each paired with one of ALO’s Intention Crystals: Smoky Quartz, associated with grounding and protection, or Yellow Tiger’s Eye, which the brand links to confidence, courage and personal strength.
Leather Mesh brings another twist to the collection, taking one of ALO’s most recognisable sporty materials and translating it into Italian leather. The laser-cut pattern creates an airy, perforated surface before each piece is finished by hand in Florence, and the fabrication appears across the Mini Unwind Bag, Shoulder Voyage and Tranquility Tote.
“We were inspired by one of the most prominent fabrications in our line, mesh; and wanted to interpret it in leather to create something entirely new,” says Abby Gordon, ALO’s Chief Design & Merchandising Officer.
The Shoulder Voyage gives ALO’s familiar Voyage silhouette a more compact shape suited to everyday wear, while the Leather Mesh Tranquility Tote takes the same perforated treatment into a larger carryall. Elsewhere, the collection continues with more traditional leather versions, all made in Florence from responsibly sourced Italian leather and finished with hand-painted edges and custom-forged hardware.

For the first time, ALO is also moving beyond bags with a small leather goods collection comprising a card holder, zip card holder, zip around wallet, passport cover and small crescent pouch. The pieces are made using the same Italian leather and construction as the handbags.
The ALO Autumn/Winter 2026 Accessories Collection is now available to preorder at ALO Sanctuaries worldwide and online. Purchases will start from 16 September. Discover more here .

The ‘soulful sister of the Cyclades’ and ‘the hand-made isle’ are some of the terms used to describe Tinos in Greece. Although only a short boat or helicopter ride from its neighbour Mykonos, Tinos feels like another world entirely.
The dramatic terrain of windswept boulders, ancient olive groves, marble quarries and slopes terraced by dry stone walls is sculpted both by the elements and by hand. It’s a place of pilgrimage, of myths and legends, of spirituality and long-standing traditions, and of charming villages where it seems like time has (almost) stood still.
One place where slow living is celebrated, but where time certainly hasn’t stood still, is Odera . Opened just two years ago, it’s the first (and currently, only) luxury hotel on the island and it’s begun to get people talking about Tinos.
Set above a secluded bay with a private sandy beach, every one of its 77 guestrooms and pool suites faces the sea, making it the perfect spot from which to admire the island’s sun-drenched scenery.
See the full feature now only in Schön! alive .

Following Bella Hadid’s turn in front of the camera , ALO is now handing the spotlight to Kylie Jenner – although, in this case, that’s what she is trying to escape from. Jenner has practically grown up in front of a lens, constantly watched, photographed and admired, so making a campaign centred on the moments when nobody is looking makes for a fairly unexpected next move.
The entrepreneur, beauty mogul and permanently online cultural phenomenon becomes the latest face of ALO in a new campaign exploring the more intimate rituals that exist behind the scenes.
This is also a different type of energy from Jenner’s recent summer of highly visible brand moments. Between reviving the legendary King Kylie for a very pink Dunkin’ collaboration and appearing in the glossy world of her eponymous label KHY , privacy has not exactly been the dominant aesthetic. ALO, however, is interested in the opposite proposition: what happens when the cameras are theoretically off.
“Some of the most meaningful parts of my life happen when no one’s watching,” Jenner says. “Those moments of stillness are what help me feel grounded and present, and I’ve learned to protect them. That’s what I love about this campaign – it reminds us that taking care of yourself starts with making space for the things that are yours alone.”
Shot once again in Los Angeles by Mert & Marcus , the campaign presents Jenner in a more stripped-back setting. It’s not exactly an undercover operation either — this is still Kylie Jenner, after all — but the mood is intentionally more about finding a little breathing room away from the public eye.
The campaign also introduces ALO’s latest colour drop, Pink Marshmallow, because even the wellness wardrobe has decided it would like dessert. Jenner wears the new Alosoft Intuition Bra and High-Waist Intuition Capri in the soft pink heathered shade, alongside a rotation of the brand’s signature pieces including the Sunset Sneaker, Prismatic Jacket and High-Waist Prismatic Short, Splendor Bra, Aspire Tank, Alosoft Better Together Bra and High-Waist 7/8 Better Together Legging.
Elsewhere, the Airlift Intrigue Bra and High-Waist Airlift Short bring ALO’s more performance-focused fabric into the mix, while the Sway Full Zip Hoodie offers the obvious solution for anyone whose personal wellness journey occasionally involves cancelling plans and laying down.
“Kylie has been part of the ALO community for years and we’ve always admired her distinctive sense of confidence and individuality,” says Summer Nacewicz , ALO’s EVP of Marketing & Creative. “What makes this campaign so meaningful is that it reveals a side of Kylie beyond the public image. Together, we wanted to celebrate the everyday moments where wellness begins — the ones that allow us to reconnect with ourselves.”
The wellness giant is no stranger to featuring the Kardashian-Jenner family members in its campaigns. Just last year, her older sister Kendall Jenner fronted the brand’s ‘ Luxury Is Wellness’ campaign, while more recently ALO has continued building an increasingly high-fashion visual world around its studio-to-street identity.
Of course, even Kylie Jenner cannot disappear completely – she can, however, wear a very good matching set, find five quiet minutes and remind the rest of us that not every moment needs to become content.
The Kylie Jenner x ALO campaign launches today, alongside the Pink Marshmallow drop, with the featured styles available through ALO online and in stores. Find out more here .
