Happy World Tourism Day travelers!
On September 27 we celebrate World Tourism Day. We tell you the origin of this celebration and we give you the best tips to travel responsibly.
If you are reading this blog, we assume it is because you like to travel, but do you know where travelers' day comes from? Since 1980, World Tourism Day is celebrated every September 27. However, this date was not chosen by chance: it was that day - in 1970 - when the Statutes of the World Tourism Organization, the UNWTO, were approved. The main purpose of this celebration is to raise awareness among the international community about the value of tourism from a cultural, social, political and economic point of view, and this year, New Delhi has been the city chosen as the host for the annual event.

Our employees are a fundamental part for giving our customers an optimal experience and, as every month, we want to dedicate a space in our blog to highlight their great work. Jesús Merino's story, also known as Chuss, occupies this section of #ElbaFamily this August. Do not miss it!
Chuss, who works as a waiter at the Jameos bar, next to the pool of the Elba Premium Suite - adults only area - tells us: “In August I will do three years at Elba Hotels. I work in a very quiet area of the hotel where people come to rest and relax.

What is a water circuit and what benefits does it have for our health?
Water temperature changes activates the blood and lymphatic system. Discover this and the other benefits of going to a SPA thanks to Elba Hotels.
Beyond the relaxation that a day in a spa brings, many are unaware of the benefits of a water circuit. This system is part of hydrotherapy, a method that is based on the therapeutic properties of water on the body, which increase when the water is thermal or marine, as is the case with our Thalasso Spa.
But what advantages does a water circuit have for the body? The change in pool temperatures, the intensity and localized impact of the jets and bubbles of the jacuzzi or hot tub stimulate blood circulation, reduce muscle and joint pain, and promote skin hydration. Hydrotherapy also acts as a barrier to the immune system and opens airways.
Other spa services such as sauna or Turkish bath complement the benefits of this therapy. Among the most striking are the elimination of toxins by opening the pores of our skin, headaches relief, joints relaxation, skin elasticity increase or the opening of the respiratory tract, helping with nasal obstruction.

Traveling to Palma de Mallorca can be a real adventure, especially if you have time to move around the island. The coves in Mallorca are one of its many attractions but, if you are wondering what else to do in Mallorca, we recommend five essential plans:
We embark on a gastronomic route through Mallorca!
Guide to eating in Mallorca, where to go and what to try. You'll be surprised!
Many already know Mallorca for its colorful architecture, its pleasant climate or its small wild coves, but discovering its cuisine, based on the purest Mediterranean diet, with intense and fresh flavors, is a pleasure that you can not miss.
Do not miss the opportunity to try these typical products of Mallorca
During your stay in the "biggest sister" of the Balearic Islands, we recommend you go to a "celler", places where wine was made and matured and now have become restaurants specialized in typical dishes of Mallorca. There you will find much more than Mallorcan “sobrasada” and “ensaimadas”!
If you are looking for a traditional meal, Celler Sa Premsa is the perfect option. This restaurant located in the town of Palma serves some of the oldest recipes on the island. Dishes such as "Frit Mallorquín", fried lamb liver with sautéed potatoes, peppers and herbs or the well-known “sobrasada”, either natural or fried, will make your palate surrender to the flavors of Mallorcan cuisine.
