We
decided to be a be a bit adventurous and travel
to EL Divino on a
party boat which cost a mere 2 Euro's which
we caught at Ibiza Town.
EL Divino is located on a Marina in Perto Nueva
so catching the party boat straight
to the club sets you up for the night
a head.
Tonight we had come to experience Party promoters
Defected In The House from London
who have a exceptional history on putting
on club nights so we had a
feeling we were in for a good night. We would
advice people to arrive early as the
night is hugely popular so to beat the queue
come before 1 am.

On
arriving at the club you will notice a attractive
setting with
stairs leading up to the entrance with outdoor
lighting.
We were welcomed by a friendly door staff
who ran a efficient guest
list queue so we were soon inside getting
our first impression of EL Divino
which was divine. The Decor and design was
contemporary with wooden decking
leading across the main dance floor to the
out door Marina Terrace area.
This Venue also has a exclusive VIP area were
a bottle of spirit costs you
240 Euro's which gains you access to the
VIP area, we decided
to give it a miss and explore the club
instead.
The venue has seating areas on both inside
and outside so you can grab a
cooling cocktail before
strutting your stuff on the dance floor.
There are 3 main bars and drink prices range from
10 - 15 Euro's for a spirit with
a mixer and all your drinks are served with
a big smile from the friendly bar staff.
At the main bar there are steps that lead
down to the main dance floor
where everyone is getting on down to the pumping
sound of house music
as you would expect from Defected In The House
club nights.
You can then walk to the marina terrace through
glass doors which is
sheltered by a canopy where the
view in the night sky is just
bliss, looking
across the calm waters gentle
lighting and the
yacht's along
the horizon creates a tranquil
feeling.
You can re enter through other glass doors
that leads you to the raised DJ platform
where I found DJ Brian Tappert filling the
air with the sounds of soulful house music.
A very talented DJ who truly entertained the
clubbers throughout his set,
it was nice to look round and see everyone
enjoying themselves
for the DJ had done what he had been paid
for.
They were white dressed dancers who's performance
excited the crowd,
who were getting on down it really did add to
the atmosphere.
Defected In The House backdrops were around the
main dance floor and
behind the raised DJ Box, the lighting effects
were very good and last but
not least the sound system was not to be criticized
as it pumped out through the club.
The club filled very quickly, with in the hour
it was almost full to its capacity,
with locals amongst tourists from Italy, Germany
and England.
The whole crowd were friendly and the dress code
varied but was
overall casual and smart dress.
I was surprised to find even with a capacity crowd
the whole venue was kept
spotless all night from the Lavatory areas to
dance floors and a added bonus
was the fact that the air conditioning remained
on all night cooling down the clubbers.
There is also a Merchandise shop selling all goods
from Cigarette to souvenir's
and other accessories.
EL Divine is a very elegant venue which is beautifully
designed to
host such great promotions like Defected In The
House which is one not to be missed.
The whole night was excellent the only bad point
was when it
was time to shut, see you all next year!
