UD Ibiza was founded in 2015 by former
Valencia CF president
Amadeo Salvo, as a revival of
UD Ibiza-Eivissa which had folded five years earlier. The new organisation was allowed to use the old one's identity, by settling its €50,000 debt with the
Royal Spanish Football Federation and the regional federation in the
Balearic Islands. In June 2017, the club was promoted to
Tercera División after spending two seasons in the Regional league. On 7 August 2018, after the RFEF blocked
Lorca FC's participation in
Segunda División B, Ibiza paid the club's debts and achieved an administrative promotion to the third level. In
2019–20, the club competed in the
Copa del Rey for the first time. They defeated
Pontevedra and
Albacete Balompié before a 1–2 home loss to
FC Barcelona in the round of 32, having led the league title holders with 20 minutes to play. In
the following edition, UD Ibiza beat a top-flight team for the first time, winning 5–2 against
Celta Vigo in the second round of the competition; later they lost 2–1 to
Athletic Bilbao after extra time. On 23 May 2021, Ibiza was promoted for the first time ever to
Segunda División by defeating
UCAM Murcia in the final of the promotion play-off, via an
Ekain Zenitagoia goal from the penalty spot. To compete in the
Liga Nacional de Fútbol Profesional, the club became a
Sociedad Anónima Deportiva with a starting capital of €700,000. Manager
Juan Carlos Carcedo, who led the team to promotion, was dismissed on 18 December following six games without a win; his replacement
Paco Jémez saved the team from relegation with a 15th-place finish, which was not enough for Salvo to give him a new contract. On 28 April 2023, Ibiza were relegated to
Primera Federación after being defeated 1–0 at
Racing Santander, ending their two-season spell in the second division. ==Season to season==
