Deciding where to stay in Formentera comes down to beach access versus price. Es Pujols puts you on the sand but in the thick of the crowds; Sant Francesc and Sant Ferran are cheaper and quieter but inland. Read the Formentera neighborhoods guide guide for the wider area comparison, then pick from the hotels below.

Where to Stay in Formentera: Es Pujols

Es Pujols is the beachfront resort area and the natural choice for anyone who wants restaurants, nightlife and a swimmable beach within walking distance. It’s the most expensive part of the island and the fullest in August. The beach, supermarket and bus stops are all within 500 m of the hotels below.
