- 100The PlaylistLena WilsonThe PlaylistLena WilsonYou might start this film expecting a riotous night with some of the most underrated women in comedy, but you’ll soon find yourself invested in a mesmerizing story of partnership and personal growth.
- 75IndieWireKate ErblandIndieWireKate ErblandIt’s as wild and unhinged as the other films in its brethren (the MPAA does not typically rate original Netflix films, but “Ibiza” would absolutely be on the receiving end of an R). However, Ibiza subverts plenty of expectations in service to a story that’s both funny and sweet.
- 70Los Angeles TimesKatie WalshLos Angeles TimesKatie WalshThough the script relies on gross-out body humor more often than it needs to, it manages to be deeper and more resonant than most girls gone wild comedies. A truly enjoyable trip.
- 67Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyEntertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyMore than anything, the film feels a bit like a trial balloon for the relative star power of Jacobs, who’s been promoted from best friend to headliner here.
- 63The Associated PressJake CoyleThe Associated PressJake CoyleIbiza, scripted by Lauryn Kahn and directed by Alex Richanbach (both Funny Or Die veterans and disciples of Ibiza producer Adam McKay and Will Ferrell) has a loose, natural rhythm that easily surpasses its cliche framework.
- 60VarietyAmy NicholsonVarietyAmy NicholsonLoose-kneed, sloppy, and powered by charisma, this hangout flick doesn’t just embrace gross-out girl comedy cliches, it sticks Jacobs in the air roof of a limousine screaming, “Whooo! I am a total cliché right now and I don’t f–king care!”
- 60The GuardianBenjamin LeeThe GuardianBenjamin LeeThe three leads are so strong that one wishes Netflix had granted them a whole series to live in, their everyday lives worthy of a deeper dive. Ibiza is a fun, far-fetched frippery but I’d rather see what happened to them if they’d stayed at home.
- 40The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckIt's mildly enjoyable while you're watching it, but as with all such outings, you'll have a hard time remembering it the next day.

- 30New York Magazine (Vulture)Emily YoshidaNew York Magazine (Vulture)Emily YoshidaIbiza doesn’t have the strength of wit and character to suffice as a hangout vacation movie, and it has zero idea how to be a romantic comedy, either. It’s not a movie, it’s Netflix.
