The L-Acoustics X and S Series loudspeakers have been installed at the Six Senses hotel in Ibiza.
Conceived and designed by architect Jonathan Leitersdorf, Six Senses nestles into the rock of the northern tip of the Balearic Island of Ibiza.
The property is designed, as Leitersdorf says, “to provide a sense of intimacy and excitement that makes its guests happy to stay and never want to leave.”
Part of its distinctive atmosphere is delivered through its sound experience, which includes L-Acoustics systems in multiple areas, designed to deliver a consistent audio DNA; creating an empowering ambience throughout curated spaces.
Danny Ariel from L-Acoustics certified provider installer for Israel, D and D, had completed projects such as Conservatorium Amsterdam, Norman Hotel Tel Aviv, Roomers Hotel Munich, and Sir Joan Hotel in Ibiza. He previously collaborated with Leitersdorf on projects for more than a decade and was instrumental in the design and specification of the audio system for Six Senses Ibiza. “Ibiza is the holy land of music, but when we started researching what was available in the hotels there, we realised there was something missing,” he says.
“There wasn’t a single hotel where someone from the creative industries – musicians, DJs, filmmakers, etc., – could come on vacation, but still be able to work when inspiration strikes. That was what Jonathan wanted to create. A space where you can lie on the beach during the day, appreciate the beauty of the scenery, the ocean, the sunrise and sunset, all the things Ibiza is famous for, but have the world-class facilities you need to work right there, so you never have to leave the hotel.”
Six Senses Ibiza features a fitness centre, yoga studio, three restaurants, and multiple bars. It also has a recording studio, and a professional studio with independent and private access from the Cave Royale Suite. The hotel lobby, which spans three floors, is a multi-functional space, with a Steinway grand piano on its lower level for live performances. Below ground, there are additional entertainment areas: the Beach Caves bar and restaurant, the Cave Suites, and the private Cave Royale, with a secret door that leads to the recording studio below.
