Spanish officials have sparked outrage by enforcing a “six drinks a day” rule for all-inclusive holidays and in resorts on islands including Ibiza and Majorca. The new law, which affects some hotels in the Balearic Islands, means that holidaymakers are forced to pay extra if they want more than three free alcoholic drinks per meal.
Jason Walker, 42, who took an all-inclusive trip to Majorca to celebrate his cousin’s birthday earlier this week, was left “angry” and “upset” by the rules. He paid £240 for his three-night trip with travel operator Love Holiday, which he assumed had entitled him to as much food and drink as he wanted.
But when the Security officer arrived on the beautiful Mediterranean island, he was stunned to find out that there were limits on his free booze consumption. Spanish officials first announced the new law in January but its has caught out hundreds of British holiday-makers who are now arriving in the islands.
