Agrotourism, small interior and rural hotels

Agrotourism, small interior and rural hotels
The majority of hoteliers and business people connected to the tourist industry are aware of the large profit that can be obtained via Internet when marketing directly their accommodation selection.  The percentage of tourist establishments that have their own web page is quite high, particularly in the rural and interior hotels.  Navigating via the MallorcaWeb directory we can find the pages of some hundred agrotourisms, nearly fifty rural hotels and over thirty small interior hotels.

Besides having their own web, many of these establishments are included in different platforms, such as the portal of the Associació Agroturisme Balear, integrated in the Federación Empresarial Hotelera de Mallorca, which at present groups a total of 111agrotourisms, rural hotel and small interior hotels, of which 4 belong to Menorca.

What is more, the Associació de Finques d'Agroturisme de Mallorca has a portal to promote some thirty establishments of rural and interior tourism associated to this organisation. 

The agrotourisms are defined as properties that combine tourist accommodation with traditional rural activities. The rural hotels are also situated in properties that were original dedicated to agriculture, but now dedicated exclusively to tourism. Finally the interior hotels are old rehabilitated manor houses situated within the villages.
