The entities Terraferida and DinsAirbnb have made public the latest data on tourist accommodation in the Balearic Islands, a community in which the multinational Airbnb currently offers 16,000 more places than two years ago. However, Ibiza breaks with the norm in the archipelago and is the only island in which the number of places decreases.

The island has kept a downward trend of the last two seasons. While in August 2017 there were 27,953 tourist places on Airbnb, the figure fell in 2018 (July, 27,297) and continues with this trend in 2019 (April, 26,218).

On the other side of the coin is Formentera, where homes of this type grow on Airbnb by 26.7%: If in August 2017 the figure was 2,017 tourist accommodations in April 2019 it has been positioned at 2,616, according to the figures of this study.

With regard to the rest of the Balearic Islands, Mallorca has 97,094 accommodations and Menorca with 15,285.

Terraferida and Dinsairbnb have emphasized that during the last report they have been able to identify the advertisements that show the tourist license and those that do not. In this sense, 13,332 illegal homes (50.85%) are exhibited in Ibiza, while 986 of Formentera (37.7%) appear.
