In the picturesque town of Santa Eulària des Riu, where Ibiza's east coast meets the Mediterranean's gentle embrace, stands a rooftop bar and restaurant that marries the rhythms of Spain with the flavors of Peru: Maymanta. Nestled atop the chic Aguas de Ibiza Grand Luxe Hotel, Maymanta offers a transcultural culinary experience, setting itself apart amidst the Ibizan gastronomic landscape.
From the elevated splendor of Maymanta, guests are treated to a panoramic embrace of Santa Eulària des Riu's coastal charm. Turquoise waters shimmer beneath the Ibizan sun, dotted by yachts and sailboats. Yet, as much as the views enchant, it's the interiors of Maymanta that captivate—drawing inspiration from Peru's vibrant textiles, traditional crafts, and the majesty of the Andes.
At the heart of Maymanta is its celebration of Peruvian cuisine. Chef Arlette Eulert has masterfully curated a menu that pays homage to her roots, introducing the island to flavors from the Pacific to the Amazon. Ceviches bursting with freshness, Nikkei-inspired dishes reflecting Japanese-Peruvian fusion, and traditional fare like anticuchos and causas—all are prepared using a blend of local Ibizan produce and authentic Peruvian ingredients.
The bar at Maymanta isn't just a place to quench one's thirst—it's a journey through the diverse landscapes of Peru. Pisco, the beloved spirit of the South American nation, takes center stage in an array of inventive cocktails. From the classic Pisco Sour to innovative creations infused with Amazonian fruits, chilies, and herbs, each drink tells a story.
Maymanta's space is designed to offer varied experiences. Guests can lounge by the pool, basking in the sun and sipping on a Chicha Morada. The dining area, with its intimate seating, sets the stage for memorable meals under the stars. And for those seeking a more interactive experience, the open kitchen allows diners to witness the culinary ballet firsthand.
Given its unique offerings and mesmerizing views, Maymanta is a favored venue for events. From Pisco tasting sessions to Peruvian music nights, the rooftop becomes a canvas where culture, cuisine, and camaraderie come together.
Maymanta is more than just a rooftop venue in Santa Eulària des Riu; it's a bridge between two vibrant cultures. It invites guests to explore the rich tapestry of Peruvian flavors, all while enveloped in the Mediterranean's serene beauty. In a land where gastronomy and views reign supreme, Maymanta stands as a testament to the magic that unfolds when two worlds meet, high above the shores of Ibiza.
