One casual affair on a party island (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ibiza

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'island' is the definition.
(Spanish island)

'one casual affair on a' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'casual affair' becomes 'biz' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (in a down clue, letters appear on others).
'i'+'biz'+'a'='IBIZA'

'party' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ibiza that I've seen before include "holiday destination" , "Island in the Balearics" , "Westermost of Balearic Islands, popular for holidays" , "part of Spain" , "part of the Balearics" .)
