THE FOUNDERS
Ibizan mothers, Virginia Marí and Marie-Hélène Entin came up with the Minibiza concept when they saw a need for a new space for children to have fun and play in Ibiza.
Minibiza first opened it doors six years ago. Since then we have expanded and improved with new projects all designed with children in mind and we have become a reference point in Ibiza. Our latest project was taking over the organization and running of the Kids club in the prestigious Hotel Nobu Ibiza bay
