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

Answer

What can Palma authorities do about unlicensed holiday apartments?

Palma's authorities can issue fines, continue inspections, and pursue legal action against operators who rent without a licence. In some cases, the city also needs court decisions or additional administrative steps before a listing disappears completely. The process can be slow, especially when ownership or management structures are not transparent.
