Answer

Can Airbnb and other platforms remove illegal Mallorca listings quickly?

Yes, platforms often remove reported listings relatively quickly once they are notified. Mallorca’s authorities also want platforms to cooperate more directly so unauthorized rentals can be taken down faster. The difficulty is that some listings return soon after under new names, new prices or different accounts.
