What is the Mallorca tourist tax?
Mallorca applies the Balearic sustainable tourism tax (often called ITS or ecotasa), usually charged per person per night by hotels, holiday rentals, and other accommodation types. The funds support environmental protection, heritage conservation, and sustainable tourism projects across the islands.
If you are budgeting for a trip to Palma, Alcúdia, Sóller, Cala d'Or, or anywhere else on the island, this tax is a small but important extra cost to include in your travel plan.

Example calculation
Suppose 2 taxable guests stay 10 nights in a 4★ hotel in July:
- Base high-season rate = €3.00 per person/night
- Nights 1–8 at full rate: 8 × €3.00 = €24.00 per person
- Nights 9–10 at 50%: 2 × €1.50 = €3.00 per person
- Total per person = €27.00
- Total for 2 guests = €54.00
Budgeting tips for Mallorca visitors
1) Include tax in your daily spend
Add the estimated tax to your accommodation cost before you compare hotels. A room can look cheaper until taxes and fees are included.
2) Check shoulder-season savings
Traveling in spring or late autumn can lower both room prices and tourist tax, while still offering good weather for sightseeing and beaches.
3) Ask for a full price breakdown
Before you confirm booking, ask whether the displayed total already includes local taxes. This avoids surprises at check-in or check-out.
