Bookings in some of Mallorca's most popular summertime vacation resorts have dropped by as much as 20 per cent, state hoteliers on the Balearic Island, suggesting holidaymakers are voting with their feet following anti-tourism marches.

The hoteliers association that represents the resorts of Alcudia and Can Picafort say their essential markets have actually slowed in recent months.

The news comes following major anti-tourism protests throughout mainland Spain and its islands this year - with another substantial demonstration march in the pipeline for Mallorca's capital next weekend.

Recently, thousands of bold anti-tourism protesters swore to bring the streets of Palma to a dead stop on June 15th, with representatives of around 60 groups stating they're planning to march.

The Alcudia and Can Picafort hoteliers association this week said reservations had dropped throughout essential markets, including Germany, its primary market, reporting a 15% to 20% slump on last year.

Pablo Riera-Marsa, president of the hotelier's Association, stated: 'We are seeing how the German market, typically our Number 1 market, is the one that has slowed down the most.'

However, the Majorca Daily Bulletin reports that the group is positive that late bookings would still see figures rise, saying travelers were edging their bets on deal last-gasp offers.

He described: 'We are spotting that this season, last-minute reservations are when again becoming more popular, with travelers waiting on special deals and promos before making their purchase decisions.'

Backlash? Hoteliers in the resorts of Alcudia and Can Picafort on Mallorca have reported a slump of approximately 20 per cent in hotel reservations year-on-year. Spain has seen anti-tourism marches throughout the mainland and popular islands this year

And another protest remains in the pipeline, with Mallorca's capital, Palma, the location for another huge demonstration on June 15th, with 60 organisations set to march (Pictured: demonstrations on Mallorca on May 25th)

The hoteliers association preserved that numbers are just going back to normal levels following a 'champagne effect', when people started taking a trip once again following completion of the pandemic.

The presentation in Palma on June 15th will be led by project group 'Menys Turisme, Mes Vida' (Less tourist, more life), which claims that the everyday life of locals has ended up being 'unbearable' thanks to foreign holidaymakers.

They have actually implicated both the Balearic Islands' federal government of overlooking the pleas for drastic modifications in their current tourist design.

The platform is asking the island's residents to require to the streets to demand a change in the economic model and what they refer to as 'touristification.'

This will be the third major demonstration of its kind however the activists say they are getting nowhere in spite of calls to clampdown on tourists.

The demonstration in Palma will be held at the same time with similar marches in Ibiza, Barcelona, Donosti and other major Spanish cities.

'We stand for the right to a dignified life and to demand an end to touristification', stated Jaume Pujol, spokesman for Menys Turisme, Més Vida.

The group today also criticised the local federal government, implicating them of promoting policies that have actually exacerbated the mass tourist crisis.

They likewise warned that, with the start of the tourist season, 'unbearable circumstances' are already being duplicated on the island, including road closures due to traveler events and genera; saturation of public spaces and markets.

Menys Turisme, Mes Vida also argued that their island is 'not for sale' and that 'it is immediate to put limits' on a tourist model that they consider significantly harmful.

It comes a month after tens of thousands of furious Spaniards took to the streets throughout the country to require an option to the expense of living crisis they say has actually been worsened by tourist.

The presentations on April 5th occurred across significant Spanish towns and cities including Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga and Palma.

According to organizers, 30,000 individuals required to the streets of Malaga - a seaside town in the south of Spain - as they demanded services to the housing crisis, with banners reading: 'Houses for individuals of Málaga. Hotels for tourists, cost effective rents.'

But police reported that around 5,000 demonstrators took part in the Malaga march.

Residents were photographed holding banners with the slogan: 'Houses for individuals of Málaga. Hotels for tourists'.

Some also hung posters from their terraces and windows with messages stating: 'Housing is a right, not a service'.

Meanwhile in Madrid, around 15,000 individuals collected in the capital's area of Atocha and marched towards Plaza de Espana yelling mottos like: 'Landlords are thieves' and 'Madrid will be the tomb of leasings'.

Angry tenants indicated instances of worldwide hedge funds purchasing up residential or commercial properties, frequently with the goal of renting them to foreign travelers.

The concern has ended up being so politically charged that Barcelona's local government vowed last year to phase out all its 10,000 permits for short-term rentals, a lot of them marketed on platforms like Airbnb, by 2028.

Marchers in Madrid last month shouted 'Get Airbnb out of our communities' and held up signs versus short-term leasings.

'No more leaving our neighborhoods, our homes, or even our cities every five or 7 years,' stated Valeria Racu, representative for the Madrid occupants' union, in a declaration at the start of the demonstration.

'We're calling on the half-million households whose agreements expire in 2025 to stay at home and withstand,' she included.

Last month, British holidaymakers were left trembling in hotels as protesters stormed the streets of the Canary Islands.

Residents waring over-tourism released presentations across Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Ela Hierro, La Palma, La Gomera, and Lanzarote.
