In Magalluf and Cala Viñas the number of available hotel places has risen from 874 in 2023 to more than 1,000 this year with five hotels and apartment complexes remaining open, according to the Calvia council. Hoteliers are calling on shops, bar and restaurants in the resorts to remain open throughout the year.
In Palmanova and Son Caliu the number of places has risen from 330 in 2023 to 494 this year.
The Maricel hotel, in Cas Catala, continues to be the only five-star hotel which is open throughout the year. This hotel is joined by the renovated four-star, 69-bed Hotel Donna in Portals Nous. According to the mayor of Calvia, Juan Antonio Amengual, this establishment “has opted for quality and for staying open all year round, maintaining practically all the staff and almost all the services”. The advantage of this hotel is its proximity to Palma.
In the four-star category, which represents 54 percent of the total offer, 1,818 hotel places would be available over the winter period across Calvia. In the three-star category 886 places would be open for business., equivalent to 26.5%.
The two-star and one-star categories maintain a more limited offer, with 101 and 106 places, respectively, reflecting a commitment to the higher quality segment in the municipality.

All very well until the unfortunate winter tourist hits the buffets of the new long winded data capture system! It’s had such bad publicity in the UK that the extra rooms on offer will certainly not be filled by Brits despite the sinking Euro making trips so much cheaper. Lots of empty sun beds next year unless Spain drops this scheme along with the I’ll fated EES.
Stan The ManNormally the *resorts* are closed - or mostly closed. The other 3600 sq. km stay open and active like any other season, which is why winter tourism has traditionally populated the uncharted wilderness beyond Calvia, where there's plenty of available shopping, restaurants, bars, and all the things winter tourists come here for. We'll see if the resorts can attract any significant numbers.
What hotels are open in Magaluf for the winter? Many years ago the whole resort would be open for Christmas & New Year. Pensioners stayed at the hotel Barbados for a couple of months
Hotels etc remaining open in the Winter is encouraging news. Along with Bars and Restaurants. How I would like to see much more entrepreneurial actions to make Mallorca much more attractive in the Winter. Normally Mallorca is closed, and most Urbanisations become Ghost Towns. Such a great waste of facilities, Buildings, Hotels etc.
Er no thanks, I will stick with the Caribbean.
