Answer

Will stricter fines really stop illegal holiday rentals in Mallorca?

Harsher fines can help, especially when they are backed by inspections, fast procedures and the ability to seal off illegal apartments. But fines alone rarely solve the problem if controls are slow or listings simply move to other channels. For Mallorca, the key question is whether enforcement can keep up with the market.
