Some sections of the tourism industry in Majorca are not as cheerful this year as the previous ones. Reports show that the leading hoteliers of Calvia are worried about the state of tourism as very few hotels are planning to open this year.
Leading tourism experts say that in many hotels, the prices had to be lowered to fill the rooms and also that many bars and restaurants have planned to close early. The Magaluf water park has already closed, one month earlier than it was expected to close. The business community in Magalluf claimed that the tourists spent less than usual this year.
Most of the local hotels might be closing by this month and this would lead to an increase in unemployment. Right now, there are 43’000 unemployed people in the Balearics and this figure is expected to rise after the summer season. The local government would be under great pressure to attract larger number of tourists to the island in this winter.
