“You are not welcome”: Ibiza property agent rejects booking linked to 'Israeli' renters

A real estate agent in Ibiza has canceled a holiday rental for a group of clients after learning that two of them were 'Israeli' nationals, telling them they would not be welcome “until the genocide in Palestine stops,” according to a report by 'Israel's' Kan 11 news.

The dispute began when one of the clients contacted the agent to ask about a partial cancellation, citing “the war in our country” as the reason. The agent pressed for clarification on their nationality, and when told two members of the group were from 'Israel', she refused to proceed with the booking.

In text exchanges shared by local media, the agent stated, “I’m sorry, but you are not welcome until the genocide with Palestine stops.” She also informed them she would donate the 2,500 euro (almost USD 3,000) security deposit they had paid to support Palestine.

She later blocked the group from all communication channels. According to the messages, the rest of the group, who were reportedly from France, were offered the chance to proceed with the booking, but declined.
