IBIZA 2024 UPDATE A BIG PROBLEM FOR THE ISLAND

When I initially arrived in Ibiza, finding a place was a breeze. However, now there's a surge in demand from individuals seeking to reside in Ibiza year-round. In recent years, I've consistently observed the formidable challenge of securing high-quality, affordable rental housing for Ibiza residents in today's society. contracts hold little weight, landlords demand a year's rent upfront, and the rising cost of living prompts people to even advertise the back of their cars and friends sofas, Even the GUARDIA Civil agents in Ibiza are compelled to sleep in their cars because of skyrocketing rent prices, revealing the island's severe housing crisis. Last summer, nine officers went on sick leave when stationed at Ibiza airport because a shortage of accommodation left them with no choice but to spend nights in their vehicles. It has become increasingly challenging for employers to find staff to work in their beach bars, clubs, and restaurants, as seasonal living is becoming more difficult due to the rise in rental prices.
In this video, I chat with a handful of local owners and managers of various establishments. Ideally, I would have liked to speak with more people, but creating this video solo can sometimes make it challenging to pin down individuals to talk on camera, especially during the off-season in Ibiza, particularly in February.

We own a house in Ibiza and have been travelling to the island for over 40 years, the development is dramatic. The island is a victim of its own success, it simply has too many people, often the wrong ones, and the growth is driving up prices and damaging quality. it's a shame

@carphunter5042 6 месяцев назад

@spikeytop8982 6 месяцев назад

Exactly the same in Northern Cyprus. Building everywhere and prices have gone through the roof in the last 18 months, both to purchase and rent. Lots of Russians and Germans buying which have driven up the prices. People that have lived here for 20+ years are leaving because of costs and utility shortages. Our water is on for maybe 2 hours per day and regular power cuts plus the occasional shortage of lpg gas. This is only going to get worse with 1000’s of new units coming in line.

Came here in summer 2004 with the boys. We were 19 & it was brilliant. No posers, no-one loving themselves by constantly taking pictures for social media. Just people out to have a great time, get on it, dance the night away without giving a shit. We stayed at the Bahia which is next to the now ridiculously expensive, poser paradise bar. I went there in 2015 & it was horrendous. Me & the boys managed to get a packed out BayBar to all take a massive photo of everyone, was epic.

@DonLeake 7 месяцев назад

Hi Dwayne, have followed you for awhile. I’m an architect and real estate developer and have been coming here for most years since 2003. One of the key issues…the island is limiting housing construction….there just aren’t enough housing units for everyone who is here. This ties back to water and infrastructure…there is enough fresh water supply for the projected growth of the island. There is a proposed desalination plant but to my understanding (you know more than me) it hasn’t been approved yet. Btw, happy to buy you a few beers or dinner when I’m there in August. Thanks for the channel…watched your personal story and appreciate the work you do.

@DonLeake 7 месяцев назад

Can also explain why housing has gotten so expensive across the world….not just Ibiza but the UK/Ireland, rest of Spain etc. Has a lot to do with the failure of attracting younger people to the trades and also Russian sanctions impacting the ability to make still, since steel requires nickel to make and 30% of the world’s nickel production comes from Russia.

@JonnyRootsDem 6 месяцев назад

@miamibertin5537 Месяц назад

Wrong there is not enough water. Actually there is a drought. And desalination is NOT the solution. There are currently if I remember correctly two desalination stations working already and just today out of the many companies that sell portable water were completely dry. None had water to sell except one company. I know as I am currently on the island and know hotel owners here and farm owners. The ocean needs its salt water. The answer is not to destroy more of our beautiful nature and environment with more development just to fill these small islands with more people. What a terrible idea. I am a real estate investor and would never agree to that solution. There is a limit to everything. We must preserve places like Ibiza. Not over develop them to make a buck. Imagine if everywhere that more water is needed we would just start building more desalination stations…typical at one moment we would consume and destroy the oceans that are already suffering from all the pollution.

@DonLeake Месяц назад

@@miamibertin5537 I struggle to understand how desalination isn't the solution. I live in Arizona now, and have lived in Miami, Dubai, and Saudi Arabia, and all four places thrive on desalination, and they manage much greater population growth than Ibiza. Phoenix does just fine on desal as the fastest growing city in the US. There are a variety of ways to handle the effluent, which I think is the problem you are raising.

@WhatOllieDidNext 7 месяцев назад

Enjoyed the video Dwayne. I live on the Portuguese island of Madeira, same thing happening here with property prices. Tourism spiked as a result of the island being accessible to travel during covid and many travellers started visiting that were not the traditional demographic associated with the island. That trend is still running away from us with the island being increasingly on the radar of outdoor / adventure travellers. Prices for a T1 in Funchal are now in excess of 1200 a month, I've heard rooms in shared houses going for 700 a month, T3 prices over 3k. Wages are not keeping up with the inflated market. Just seen an article this morning saying that 45% of property purchases are from foreigners, and nationally 37% of rentals are from foreigners, so guess its happening everywhere. While we do have lots of new construction, I don't see the amount of new hotels going up like you seem to have where you are, most of ours is refurb on existing tourist units and then high end apartment builds, 400, 500k+, well out of reach of the average worker here! I'm trying to think what I used to pay for my hostel accommodation in Ibiza during the '97 season. I'm recall it was around 3 mil a night, that was like 12 quid! That was for a private room with sink, but shared toilet and shower facilities. A shared room was less. That was a good chunk of change back then, and you had to put some punters through the doors handing in your flyer for admission discount to earn enough to make rent! 6 nights a week always get a couple of shit locations on rotation during the week and worry if by the end of the week I'd have a roof over my head. Slept on some floors during my time I know! I could go on forever with stories. Years ago my ex wife used to say i was to Ibiza what uncle Albert was to Only Fools and Horses. When I was in Ibiza....

@craigmarsdj 7 месяцев назад

Ibiza is out-pricing itself, it's being stripped of its soul for the VIPs. Yes, the drinks in the clubs have always been expensive but we were prepared for that. Now the Local Spars are 4x more expensive for pre-drinks. Looking at Jet2 and TUI some hotels are an extra £2000 peak season this year on previous years! But we still go for the love of the island! Great video as always Dwayne!

As a Agent for TUI i will say this… Flights to almost everywhere in Spain is being cut back … Why ?. Because holiday Bookings for the spring season is down 81% yeas thats correct down 81% , No one is booking. Even now on line your already seeing offers for bookings. The cost of living is making people stay at home. No one has any spare cash , Wait till the EU introduce the New Visas and Finger printing at all its Airports with Photo IDs Taken for a DATABASE. No one wants that . They just want to show a Passport and thats it. All surveys on this shows that 90% are against it and will not travel to the EU countries that Introduce it. Holidays to the Philippines , Thailand , India , Bangkok , Vietnam , etc is seeing more tourists. With Cheaper Flights and accommodation. I firmly believe the new EU entry rules will destroy the Tourism Industry for all EU countries… Its going to be a Bumpy ride.

@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic 7 месяцев назад

Great video! I'd still wanted to add something based on my experience. If you plan on only working/living on the island in the summer your accommodation options will consist on basically what's available then, and therefore you'll be paying peak season prices. If you live on island 12 months a year conversely, the accommodation market is fairly different (you'd be looking at about €1K-1.5/month for a small 2 bedroom apartment. I'm a local (born and raised) and I've got lots of friends (also locals) that can afford to pay rent on really 'shitty' jobs (supermarket, warehouse...). It's not super easy to find something, don't get me wrong, but totally feasible.

I said last year, ibiza is going the of places like cannes, marbella and similar places. Only the rich will be able to afford to go there. They'll destroy the ethos of the place if they carry on.

@leighinibiza 7 месяцев назад

The trouble is that the venues being built will rely on volume of people. Once it gets too expensive those places won’t stay open. On top of that, if the place can’t attract people to work in services such as police, healthcare etc as well as tourism, it will no longer be an attractive destination for the rich either. Someone somewhere needs to find a balance but that will mean a lot of concessions from a lot of people.

Great to see a return to the longer format. The tourist perspective is less immediate but still worrying. It is getting harder and harder to find affordable holidays on the island and, if it continues, the time will come when the whole of Ibiza is an exclusive resort for the wealthy. At that point, the whole character of island will be dead. Tragic.

Very very handy video that Dwayne. Nice one mate. Its always been a dream of mine to live over in Ibiza, but the whole Brexit thing pretty much put a stop to it all, and 6-months of the year, people must struggle to makes ends meet over there, as it really is such a seasonal island. I think unless you can find ways of earning money outside of basic bar work, you're going to struggle. Bar work is OK up to a point, and for 6 months of the year, but its not always guaranteed. Keep up the good work mate - i'll be making a purchase of the guide very soon.

Dwayne having been to Tenerife twice this year (after a gap of 25 odd years) I can’t say I’m in a rush to return to Ibiza. You can get a pint overlooking the sea for €1 and a 3 course meal for €10. I only really go to Ibiza for the odd trance event but am just as happy to attend an Irish bar with a decent band knocking out covers. I hear Dave Pearce did a show here at Tramps last year, more of that and it’s a no brainer for me. Also there’s a nice mix there with the young and the old and weather is good all year round. 🤔🤷‍♂️

Which area u recommend in Tenerife?

@KingofBlingham 7 месяцев назад

Biggest difference to me is the accommodation in Tenerife. I Ibiza in high season I spend £10,000 for 2 weeks in a relatively small hotel room compared with other countries.That is not even the cost for an upmarket hotel, just pretty standard in San Antonio. In Tenerife for £6,000 I can get and entire duplex apartment within a hotel complex with so much space, various bathrooms and kitchen etc at nearly half the cost. I'm off to Tenerife in 3 weeks for a week out of season. £600 for 6 nights including flights, in a 4 star hotel bed and breakfast. Nowhere is as good as Ibiza other than the Greek Islands in my opinion but the value for money I get elsewhere now means I can holiday more often for the same budget.

The problem is Dwayne, while people pay it there won't be anyone dropping prices. It's the same with football tickets for example. Championship club charging £40+ will always do if people are paying it no matter how much they moan. If someone got a 5-6 month tennant for double the money they're not going to be that bothered about the place being empty for 6 months. It's just bonus money if they get a winter tennant. So crap for anyone going there for the summer to work. Also, just saying what others have said. Try and get a couple of mic's. Content is brilliant though. Top man

I’ve explained I don’t need a mic, it’s this one or two files at the start as it was shot on a different camera

Why don't you work with some places so you could get a commission, is there a reason Dwayne or is it something that you feel that it isn't the direction that you want the channel to be ? Great channel btw it is my favourite ibiza vlog channel so keep it up pal.

None want to do anything in winter, summer is fine but they’re all a bit behind with RU-vid, I’ve worked in marketing for a long time here it’s always the same

Bluetooth mic and *subtitles* - plenty of sites out there where you can upload your video and they subtitle for free Dwayne. Love the videos.

@DwayneMuffin 7 месяцев назад

Subtitles will be on RU-vid I’m not plastering over my video it looks tacky I think, but I’ll upload them direct to RU-vid takes a bit more time. Don’t need a mic, I just used that one camera on that one occasion so I’ll be ok in future

@AndrewMcKittrick1000 new Space club in Italy. Maybe that's the place to go. Sadly Ibiza is all about the cheddar now. Vibe gone.

@jamesobrien4702 7 месяцев назад

It's hard for you guys - the greed is infectious..unfortunately salaries I guess on the island don't keep up with the expensive nature - i think that's why many end up in the drugs trade to make ends meet - then that destroys lives x

@jeroenpanjer 7 месяцев назад

Good video, but it is really hard to hear what people are saying without a mic.

@DwayneMuffin 7 месяцев назад

Yes I made the mistake of dropping the sound on that one file, 450 + videos and no issue, my bad on this occasion but I won’t be mic people up in future as these videos aren’t planned

@DaveReynolds-p6j 7 месяцев назад

It's a shame you couldn't get anyone from the agencies to talk to you. It's clear that the more the owner gets the more the agency receives in commission. Maybe if the tax agency was more on top of this then rents wouldn't be so high but seeing as they are all mates (the owners and tax man), and a lot of this is undeclared money nothing will change soon. Also interview someone from the council and hold them to account for allowing this free for all. as at the moment they feel it's not their problem. It is. Arrived in 2012 my one bed apt was 550 a month to rent. That same flat is now 1500pm. Crazy.

@DwayneMuffin 7 месяцев назад

I could have got anyone but the point was I was just walking about, if it’s too planned no one really cares so incorporating a little of everything works. Julian’s was even too long for my liking as people usually switch off after 3 mins on interviews

@ojoj8238 7 месяцев назад

Last summer i talked to girls that were living together in a pretty small house and they were paying like 2 k rent per month so 500 each, i said myself, fkin hell people that want to work the summer basically have a salary that does not even cover their rent if they want to live alone, crazy prices for everything, unfortunately it's a situation which is very noticeable in other place as well, obviously Ibiza being a pretty small place with a huuuuuuge demand it is really going to cause big big problem for the fundamental services of an Island that during the summer is basically a hotpot for everything you can think of safetywise.

@alvarorodriguezfilmmusic 7 месяцев назад

Yes and no. If you plan on only working in the summer your accommodation options will consist on basically what's available then, and therefore you'll be paying peak season prices. If you live on island 12 months a year conversely, the accommodation market is fairly different (you'd be looking at about €1K-1.5/month for a small 2 bedroom apartment. I'm a local (born and raised) and I've got lots of friends (also locals) that can afford to pay rent on really 'shitty' jobs (supermarket, warehouse...). It's not super easy to find something, don't get me wrong, but totally feasible.

@liamobrien154 7 месяцев назад

I was really trying to listen to this interview as it seem interesting. But I really struggled to hear what was being said due to all the hustle and bustle in the background. A really odd choice of a place to do such a thing when you don't have the correct equipment? 🤷🏻‍♂️

@DwayneMuffin 7 месяцев назад

That was the point of the video, it’s casual I was in the restaurant. Think I made the mistake by dropping the sound bar on this file but we learn, second I start taking sound equipment with me means it’s all set up and that’s not what I do, it wasn’t planned.

Keep the faith, like everything it will eventually sort itself out, hmmm actually it’s Ibiza it won’t, it’s just going to keep climbing and becoming more and more aligned to the wealthy elites who will spend what ever the price is, businesses will keep increasing rates to pass on to staff and the cycle will keep going 😮 keep up the vlogs and so jealous of the sun!!! See you in the summer 🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🤣🤣👍👍

@user-lc2zi4dl2o 7 месяцев назад

It's a small island folks. If prices would go down, even more people would live there. If you cannot effort it, move to a cheaper place. Simple.

@DwayneMuffin 7 месяцев назад

Think you’re missing the point, the prices are increasing by a lot therefore the wages for people here are low and they can’t afford to live here, then you’ll have next to no workers to work the jobs needed in the public sector & travel industry. Imagine next time you order a a meal and you’ve to wait extra long as the place will be understaffed or you’re delayed because there’s a lack of ground staff workers at the airport. It’s not as simple as just pay up.

@calvinscoular2215 7 месяцев назад

What a stupid thing to say. Prices aren’t going down they are going up. Always up and the wages aren’t reflecting this. Even more so in Spain and even more so in the main sectors the island is struggling with. You have cops sleeping in cars and doctors leaving but you think that it’s because people can’t afford to live in this special millionaires club 😂
