Four years have passed since the General Directorate of Culture of the Government, headed at that time by Catalina Solivellas, and the Ministry of Culture announced an ambitious plan to renovate the main state-owned cultural facilities in the Balearic Islands. The State had committed to investing up to eight million euros in four different venues –the Museum of Mallorca, the Can Sales library in Palma, the Ethnographic Museum of Muro, and the Dalt Vila headquarters of the Archaeological Museum of Ibiza and Formentera (MAEF)– within a period of precisely four years. The forecast, therefore, was that at the beginning of 2026 all these interventions would have been completed.

The Parador de Eivissa will open on February 23, as announced at Fitur this Friday by the Secretary of State for Tourism, Rosario Sánchez, who noted that an investment of 43.2 million euros has been made. The Ministry of Industry and Tourism indicated that this project has involved one of the largest archaeological excavations in recent years in Spain and the restoration of the historical heritage of Dalt Vila. Sánchez announced that reservations will open on the Paradors website next Monday, January 26, so that the first guests can stay at the hotel starting March 10.
