About the name

The meaning behind PAIES

PAIES is a boutique travel agency born from the initials—and the shared world—of Paulo Assis and Ines Espírito Santo.

Coincidentally (or perhaps not), its phonetic sound like “Payes” the term used to describe the native people from Ibiza and Formentera — two islands with which we share a deep and personal connection.

The Payes embody simplicity, authenticity, and bohemian joy—values that lie at the heart of our vision. These principles guide everything we create, making the name PAIES a natural and meaningful reflection of our identity.

About the founders

From friendship to a shared vision

Our story is rooted in a long-standing friendship and a shared way of living. We are moved by great restaurants, local energy, secret cocktail bars, sunset rooftops, beaches you cannot miss and by those chiringuitos that don’t take reservations.

What binds together is the genuine passion of designing and curating journeys, inspired by our own lifestyle. This is how we are often perceived: two individuals driven by inner joy, authenticity, and a bohemian spirit - and this is exactly what we seek to deliver through every journey we create with you.
