The Balearics are Europe’s Top Rental Destination!

With Mallorca leading on, year after year, the Balearic Islands are Europe’s top holiday destination.

In spite of occasional moaning about “this and that”, our fellow Europeans, who seek peace and relaxation, know that after a short 2 hour flight they will find the perfect conditions on the Balearic Islands to spend unforgettable holidays with their families and friends, in stunning natural surroundings.

Indeed, a report published by Homeholidays definitely confirms that an extensive market study clearly underlines the status of the Balearic Islands as Europe’s top destination for holiday makers looking to rent a property in Spain. According to this study, the number of holiday homes rented out last month was 21% higher than in April 2013.

The report also states clearly what experienced companies have always known, that Pollensa and the north east in general are continuing to be one of the most popular holiday destinations and nearly all of the rental agencies are claiming to be very busy with occupancy levels well up on last year!

On the whole, the Balearics enjoyed a 31% share of the overall national holiday rental market last month and the trend is forecast to continue throughout the season.

The British dominated the market with the number of Britons sourcing information about holiday homes for rent in the Balearics up 136% on April 2013! The Italians formed the second largest market with a year-on growth of 22% followed by the French, 3% and the Spanish, 2%.

These figures clearly show that renting a holiday home is extremely popular and the forecast issued shows that holiday rentals will continue to grow in popularity. Although published in some newspapers throughout Europe, recent confusing discussions within the Balearic Government regarding holiday rentals have also not managed to curb the demand, as more and more holiday makers are searching for an exclusive option to suit their desire for independency, rather than installing their families in a hotel during their well-earned holidays. 

Therefore, with regards to certain conflicting press-releases, we can only urge holidaymakers who prefer rental accommodation to see beyond this type of scaremongering and continue choosing holiday rentals in Mallorca, supporting the industry and the owners. In order to avoid any unnecessary hassle, be wise and contact a reputable company with a long standing trade-track-record!

If you have not yet planned your holidays, we do strongly advise you to contact us at Balearic-Villas.com® to secure your perfect villa so that you are guaranteed to enjoy relaxing holidays on the most beautiful islands in the Med.!
