Other families staying at the Palma Bay Hotel reported looking after the children having found them wandering around alone at all times of day and night.
When cops arrived to arrest the pair, they were found drunk, reported.
The mother and stepfather claimed another British couple at the resort had agreed to watch the kids while they went out drinking.
It was also reported they ignored resort staff warnings that it was illegal to leave the children on their own.
News of the charges emerges after a holidaymaker left to look after the pair slammed them, saying they "don't deserve to have kids".
Amanda Wignall, 37, who was holidaying at the same resort with her husband and four-year-old son took the girls in after spotting them dancing on their own.
The mum-of-two, from Blackpool, said they were left with four different families in just two days.
During the holiday she hit out at the parents on Facebook, writing: ";Last night it came to a head.
"Both parents were arrested after the dad was paralytic drunk and the mom had left the girls to look after themselves after she left the resort to go and party on the strip.
"I took care of them girls for 3 hours looking for her mom and we couldn't find her anywhere.
"They wanted to stay in my room, even a strangers room they'd only known 2 days, so they could be looked after but I told them I wasn't allowed to do that and hotel reception had to take care of them.
"The girl was calling her dad in Scotland for help. This morning I had to watch them two beautiful girls get taken away by Spanish social services and taken to a Spanish children's care centre as mom and dad have been arrested and in Palma cells.
"Never have I witnessed such awful disgusting parenting and fear in two small faces. Parents if you want a holiday abroad and get off your face leave your kids at home."
