More than 300 Airbnb properties in Ibiza have been removed from the short-term let accommodation platform after a "historic" agreement was signed.

In the first 15 days of operation, hundreds of adverts were taken down and Airbnb users were warned they would be blocked from the platform if they posted "flagrantly" illegal properties from the website, including caravans, tents, yurts and boats. 

The deal means illegal properties will be taken down "without discussion or appeal" in order to prevent costly legal delays. 

According to The Olive Press, there are currently 100 open cases in Ibiza, which is expected to rise to reach over 200 with the introduction of new measures.
