When the North Sleeps: Why Alcúdia & Co. Are Quiet in February — and What the Problem Is
Why Hotels Close in Northern Mallorca in Winter
Northern Mallorca depends heavily on summer tourism, so many hotels close for winter to cut costs.
Published: April 23, 2026
Answer
Why are so many hotels closed in northern Mallorca in winter?
Many hotels in northern Mallorca are built around the summer season, so their staffing, costs, and business plans depend heavily on peak months. When winter arrives, some operators close for several months to save money, which also reduces work and income for nearby businesses. This is why areas like Alcúdia and Playa de Muro can feel almost empty outside the main season.
