Spanish resort usually bustling with Brits empty as sunbeds lie abandoned

Brits remain a big part of the tourist market in Magaluf and Majorca more broadly. Every year more than 2.3 million Brits head to Majorca, which accounts for around 26% of the total tourist traffic A Spanish holiday island typically bustling with Brits has been snapped looking empty and ghostly. Miguel Perez-Marsa, president of the island's ABONE nightclub and entertainment association, has told local press business is booming in the German-popular party resort of Playa de Palma near the Majorcan capital. ‌ However, he has claimed young Brits are turning their backs on Magaluf - where holidaymakers from other European countries were once a rare sight in the summer season - because they have been 'demonized.' ‌ Dozens of beach sunbeds lay empty yesterday as thousands of Spanish teenagers from Valencia partying after end-of-year school exams took over the resort, with some bar owners admitting they were opening up later to cater for the new type of tourists they were receiving. Do you have a travel story to share? Email webtravel@ Mr Perez-Marsa said the gap left by the British was being filled by French and Italian tourists who tend to drink less than UK party animals and don't spend as much going out at night. He went on to claim that British youngsters who have traditionally packed out the noisy nightspots of Magaluf's brash Punta Ballena party strip had been 'steam-rollered', by island authorities. Mr Perez-Marsa also said more British families were visiting Magaluf but complained they were opting for all-inclusive deals that meant they spent less outside their hotels. Magaluf's infamous party strip has been under the spotlight since Majorca's leading politician at the time, Jose Ramon Bauza, slammed Punta Ballena as "500 metres of shame". This came after an 18-year-old girl was tricked into performing sex acts for a supposed free holiday, only to receive a cocktail named 'Holiday'. ‌ Fines reaching up to £50,000 were introduced for tourists caught balcony jumping, and alcohol service with meals at all-inclusive hotels in areas like Magaluf was restricted under a regional government decree targeting 'drunken tourism', introduced five years ago. Last year saw even stricter measures, including £1,300 penalties for street drinking and mandatory night-time shutdowns of alcohol-selling shops in parts of Magaluf. Brits remain a big part of the tourist market in Magaluf and Majorca more broadly. Every year more than 2.3 million Brits head to Majorca, which accounts for around 26% of the total tourist traffic. The major share is still the Germans with more than 3.4 million, equating to 40% of the total. There are around 340,000 Scandinavians, 238,000 French, 160,000 Swiss, and 136,000 Irish. Last year the mayor of Calvia, Juan Antonio Amengual, announced that that "all Brits are welcome" in Magalluf. The mayor says that there is some "tourismphobia" on account of the behaviour of some tourists, but most certainly not all. "We want people to enjoy their holidays with respect between tourists and residents."

EXCLUSIVE: Council in Dundee aware of Raac issues nearly 50 years ago

Dundee's former local council was aware of structural issues caused by Raac nearly 50 years ago, The Courier can reveal. Documents from the local authority archives reveal that concerns were first raised about Siporex, a brand of Raac, as far back as 1977. The issue was discovered in 34 homes. In 1977, the depute chief architect of City of Dundee District Council – as it was called then – wrote a report called 'Craigie Drive 3rd Development – Defective Ceilings'. The architect stated that the moisture content of Siporex 'was higher than normally would be expected' in units built nine years previously in 1968/69. The architect, Ian M. Dunsire, speaks of the concrete 'blistering'. He reports: 'These blisters are sufficiently loose to be easily removed and leave a small crater on the underside of the ceiling.' Siporex problems were identified in three estates, known then as Craigie Drive 3rd development, and Kirk Street 1st and 2nd developments. The Courier understands they are now called Southampton Place, Kirk Street and Yeamans Lane. All three streets have been found to contain Raac since 2023 through testing by Dundee City Council. In 1978, the director of technical services at the City of Dundee District Council submitted a report detailing the probable costs for 'the repair of Siporex ceilings' at the three developments. £70,000 was set aside in 1978 to address the issue. The Right to Buy scheme, through which many Raac properties were purchased from the council, did not begin until 1980. Nearly 800 homes in Dundee are now known to contain Raac, the highest number of affected residential properties in Scotland. Dundee City Council has repeatedly told homeowners they must pay for their own repairs. A statement on the local authority's website states: 'The council has no ongoing maintenance responsibilities and no liability towards owners who bought their former council properties under the 'Right to Buy' scheme, or any subsequent owners.' As part of our Trapped by Raac campaign, The Courier is asking people to sign this petition to help homeowners affected by the crisis. The Courier asked Dundee City Council if it accepts that Raac was known to be in homes, and that there were issues with the product, before the properties were sold to private homeowners through the Right to Buy Scheme. In response, a spokesperson for Dundee City Council said: 'These are historic records which relate to consideration of work at 34 properties. 'There was no suggestion of wider remedial work being identified across the rest of the development, or in other developments where Siporex might have been used, indicating that this was being treated as a localised issue. 'Defects can happen in properties of all construction types and there was no prior equivalent industry-wide concern about Raac until the issues came to light in schools in England from 2019 onwards.'

The two fabulous hotels in Asia that made it to La Liste's World's Best Hotels 2025 list

Your hotel can make or break your vacation. And for some travellers, the hotel is the whole vacation. Whether you're looking for a sanctuary to come back to after a whole day exploring the city or a destination accommodation with all the luxuries you could ask for, there's an answer in Asia. For the extra guarantee of a good time, you can turn to La Liste's latest list of the finest hotels in the world. La Liste, best known for its rankings of gastronomic experiences worldwide, has now ventured into the hospitality sector. Using a proprietary algorithm, it has aggregated and analysed data from over 400 international sources, comprising thousands of reviews, professional evaluations, and guest feedback to produce a list of the World's Best Hotels. A total of 10 hotels across the globe were honoured this year – and just two exceptional properties from Asia have been recognised. One of the Asian laureates is Mandarin Oriental Bangkok. This grand dame opened its doors almost 150 years ago, boasting 331 luxurious rooms and 11 restaurants and bars (including the Michelin-starred French table d'hôte at Le Normandie, reopening in the latter half of 2025). It's situated on picturesque grounds by the Chao Phraya river – we love taking afternoon tea on the terrace to soak in the riverside atmosphere. The Peninsula Shanghai is the only other Asian hotel on the 'World's Best Hotels' list. La Liste highlights it as an "architectural tour de force" – and we can't help but agree. The Peninsula Shanghai does heritage glamour right, nailing even the small details: old-fashioned dials above the lifts, plush patterned carpets, and quality antique reproduction furniture. Facilities abound: think upscale designer boutiques in the hotel arcade, five dining options, a spa and fitness centre, and a spacious sun terrace. We recommend booking the deluxe room for river or garden views. Despite not making it into the final list of top hotels, a couple of standout properties in Asia were recognised with La Liste special awards. Ulaman Eco Luxury Resort in Bali bagged the Style & Design Hotel Award; The Datai Langkawi in Malaysia and Shinta Mani Wild in Cambodia earned the Ethical & Sustainable Hotel Award, while 21 Carpenter in Singapore was awarded the Discovery Gem Hotel Award.
