A much-publicised crackdown on excessive holiday boozing has failed to have any noticeable impact, according to resort bosses. New regulations were introduced after consultation with the Balearic government, tour operators and local businesses.
Authorities in Majorca have confirmed that from June 9, drinking in the streets will be banned between 10pm and 8am and authorities will control the size of bar crawls. But the most controversial rule limited alcohol for guests booked on all-inclusive breaks at some hotels in Majorca and Ibiza.
Visitors at selected hotels can only have three free drinks at lunch and three with their evening meal after the Balearic government said it needed to improve the image of party resorts, including Magaluf, which have a reputation for boozy and bad behaviour.
