Answer

What does a shorter average stay mean for hotels in Mallorca?

A shorter stay usually means guests pass through faster, which can make operations less efficient. Hotels have less time to generate income from extras such as meals, drinks or activities, while arrival and departure days become busier. For Mallorca’s tourism businesses, that can mean more work without a matching rise in revenue per guest.
