The tourist rental platform Airbnb estimates that its activity last year generated more than 6,000 million euros of direct economic impact in Spain, of which 750 million occurred in the Balearic Islands.

According to a survey carried out by the company among its users and the analysis of internal data, Spain is the third country in the world where Airbnb has had the greatest economic impact, behind the US and France.

Counting the main 30 countries where it operates, the global impact of the platform rose last year to 86,000 million euros (about 100,000 million dollars).

According to Airbnb, its customers keep 97% of the price they set to rent their apartment, and according to a survey conducted among 13,700 hosts in Spain, 55% of them say that sharing their home has allowed them to afford their own apartment .
