Why Marbella & the Costa del Sol?
One of Europe's most in-demand rental markets: 300+ days of sun, a year-round international audience and property that works hard when it's managed well.
Sun, demand and returns.
The Costa del Sol draws over 13 million visitors a year, spread across seasons: summer beach tourism, spring and autumn golf, and a steady winter flow of northern-European sun-seekers and remote workers. For owners that means a rental calendar that stays busy far beyond July and August.
Why this works for short-term rental
Year-round demand. While many markets live and die by one high season, Marbella and the wider coast attract guests in every month: beaches in summer, golf and city breaks in the shoulder seasons, and long winter stays from Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK and Scandinavia. Occupancy stays healthier across the year.
International, high-value guests. The Costa del Sol is a premium destination. Well-presented apartments and villas command strong nightly rates, and guests expect professional management, quality linen and a smooth arrival, and are willing to pay for it.
Clear licensing. Andalusia runs a straightforward tourist-registration system (the Registro de Turismo de Andalucía). With a valid licence number and the basic requirements in place, you can rent with confidence — and REX handles that registration for you.
What does that mean for your property?
Whether you own an apartment near Puerto Banús, a villa in Benahávis or a beachfront place in Estepona, the demand is there. Pricing, presentation and guest experience decide whether your property performs at the average or well above it — and that is exactly where our work lives.
