What is the proper way of pronouncing 'Ibiza', and how do you pronounce it?

Here are some of the different ways that I have heard:

1) eye - bee - za
2) ib - eee - za
3) eye - bee - tha
4) ib - eee - tha
5) eye - bee - fa
6) ib - eee - fa

    I say eye-bee-tha

    but, the winner - for pure electricity - has got to be:

    "The essential mix on Radio 1. Here's Paul Oakenfold, live, from Home, at Space, in ib-ee-tha"

    :D
