Expensive 'Premium' sunbeds in Cala Major: Who decides what a beach visit is worth?

Answer

Why are Cala Major sunbed prices in Mallorca being criticised?

The criticism focuses on so-called premium sunbeds in Cala Major that are being offered at much higher prices than the regular permitted rate. GOB Mallorca argues that this makes access to a public beach feel less open and more commercial. The complaint also raises questions about whether all operators are following the permit rules.
