Residents of Palm Mar are voicing their frustrations over a dramatic increase in noise and unruly behavior.
Local residents complain that “botellones” (open-air drinking parties) have become a nightly disturbance, with street drinking, fights, and loud parties lasting into the early morning hours, according to Canarian Weekly.

They are also are calling on officials to take action to restore peace and preserve the area’s residential nature.
