Perched high above the bustling streets of Sant Antoni de Portmany, where Ibiza's lively spirit melds seamlessly with Caribbean flair, the Malecon Rooftop at Cubanito beckons. A destination unto itself, this rooftop bar and lounge is a vibrant homage to Havana's charm, wrapped in the natural beauty of Ibiza. It's here that the soulful rhythms of Cuba dance with the tranquil waves of the Mediterranean.
Sant Antoni's famed sunsets, renowned for their mesmerizing hues, take on a different allure from Malecon. As the sun dips beneath the horizon, painting the sky with a palette of oranges, pinks, and purples, the panoramic views from this rooftop offer a front-row seat to nature's spectacle. Below, the town twinkles to life, while the distant sea reflects the heavens.
The design aesthetics of Malecon transport visitors straight to 1950s Havana. Vintage Cuban tiles, wrought iron details, and tropical plants set the stage, evoking a nostalgic yet contemporary vibe. Portraits of iconic Cuban personalities and vintage posters adorn the walls, while the ambient lighting casts a warm, golden glow.
At Malecon, the culinary journey is a fusion of Ibizan freshness and Cuban zest. Tapas-style dishes, rich with the flavors of the Caribbean, are given a Mediterranean touch. Whether it's a ceviche that tastes like the sea or a Ropa Vieja infused with traditional spices, the menu promises an exploration of diverse palates.
The bar at Malecon is a celebration of the art of mixology. With rum at its heart, the cocktail menu pays tribute to Cuba's iconic beverages. Mojitos, Daiquiris, and Cuba Libres are crafted to perfection, each with a unique twist. Fresh fruits, aromatic herbs, and the finest spirits ensure that every sip is a story.
No Cuban-inspired experience is complete without music, and Malecon does not disappoint. The gentle strumming of a guitar, the beats of conga drums, and the sultry notes of salsa and son create an ambiance that's both relaxing and invigorating. Live music sessions, featuring local and international artists, often grace the rooftop, turning evenings into fiestas.
The allure of Malecon, combined with its captivating views, makes it a sought-after venue for events. Themed nights, celebrating the rich tapestry of Cuban culture, dance sessions, and mixology masterclasses ensure that there's always something exciting on the horizon.
