Answer

How can Mallorca control holiday rentals in dense residential areas?

Local authorities can tighten licence checks, limit new tourist permits and set clearer rules for noise and neighbourhood contact points. In dense areas such as Son Espanyolet, residents also want more transparency about ownership and better monitoring of how homes are being used. Any changes still need to fit Spanish and Balearic law.
