- It is the first obsolete hotel in Calvià to be demolished in the 21st century
- The purchase has been financed with funds from the European Union’s Next Generation Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan
The acquisition of the Hotel Teix in Magaluf, which is already owned by the citizens of Calvià, has been formalised. The Town Hall and its former owners formalised the private agreement for the purchase-sale of the building at the beginning of last February. On Wednesday, the final purchase and sale agreement was formalised before a notary. The administrative process to demolish the building, clear the area and gain space for public facilities is now underway. This will be the first demolition of an obsolete hotel in Calvià by the Town Hall in the 21st century.
The property has been acquired with funds provided by the European Union's Next Generation Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, managed through the Ministry of Tourism of the Government of the Balearic Islands.
Juan Antonio Amengual, Mayor of Calvià, pointed out that "the purchase and demolition of obsolete hotel establishments is a very clear objective for the municipal government team. We must work on the recovery of public spaces in mature areas, something that had been paralysed for more than two decades. These initiatives are essential to maintain the good image and quality of Calvià, but above all to offer more spaces and services to residents and tourists."
In addition to the purchase of the Teix, there is also the former Hostal Colón in Peguera, which will also be demolished and whose purchase is possible on the same terms. The purchase of both establishments and their demolition are worth around 6 million euros.
