Eleven holiday apartments without a license in Palma's Old Town – why the listings remain online

Answer

Why can illegal holiday rental listings in Mallorca stay online even after fines?

Fines do not always lead to an immediate removal of a listing. In Mallorca, legal cases can take time, and booking platforms often only act after a formal report or a clear decision. That means a property may still appear bookable while authorities are pursuing the case.
