How To Vacation Like A Pro Footballer

The World Cup is coming to an end, which means many professional footballers will be enjoying a well-deserved vacation for the rest of the summer. Based on some of the tropical destinations players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez have traveled to in the past, we can predict where footballers vacation coming out of the World Cup.

We have taken a look at where football's biggest stars have been holidaying and where the World Cup participants may vacation soon.

A couple of summers ago, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi coincidentally parked their yachts only a few meters apart from each other.

Other regulars are Fernando Torres, David Villa and Carles Pujol, who have been seen lounging at the Cala Bassa Beach Club. Other beach clubs that are popular are Blue Marlin in the Cala Jondal Bay and the Ocean Beach Ibiza, which have been hot spots of Peter Crouch, Abbey Clancy, Mario Balotelli, Dele Alli, Danny Welbeck, Mousa Dembele, Joe Hart, Andy Carroll and Jermaine Defoe.

Nightclubs, an enormous attraction on this beautiful island, have been destinations for all of the players above along with Danny Simmons, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Kieran Gibbs.

You can catch more than a handful of pro footballers day drinking at the Cala Bassa Beach Club, the Blue Marlin and the Ocean Beach Ibiza.

Ushuaia is one of the island’s brightest beach clubs that has one of the biggest infinity pools on the island along with big-name performers such as Swedish House Mafia and Avicii.

Frank Lampard and Diego Maradona have both mentioned Es Pujols as being their favorite restaurant to eat at on the island.

*hint* if you are looking for a more family-oriented vacation, but were hoping for a taste of Ibiza, check out the neighboring island, Formentera. Cesc Fabregas, partner Daniella Semaan and their baby daughter have been caught vacationing at the more low-key vacation hotspot.
