To be fair, they spent years encouraging that kind of tourism and are no annoyed that they’ve got to popular. As the article points out it represents 75% of their economic activity so they’d be buggered if everyone just said, fine we’ll go somewhere else then.
Nah, not really. They want to change from party tourism, which is concentrated on one small area to a more distributed culture tourism. Those tourist spend twice as much and not only in the big clubs but on small shops all around the island. So they have a plan and it makes sense.
Visas, residency/rental restrictions, curfews, noise ordinances, non local surcharges, resident member beaches (membership fulfilled by residency), or a hundred other things
Edit: example: in palm springs, you cannot have any outdoor music or elevated noise as a non resident.
If you do, you can be evicted from your rental same day

Sounds like the role of the government to shape the tourist visa availability
Spain is in the EU, so no visa necessary for tourists.
Sounds like the government needs to reconsider that
So Spain should leave the EU?
Obviously not. Why would the only options be zero tourism controls or leave the EU?
So many people here can only consider black and white, it’s such limited thinking.
