How much can you earn with a holiday rental in Fuengirola?

Fuengirola has become one of the most sought-after holiday destinations on the Costa del Sol. Its climate, beaches and proximity to Málaga airport make it a perfect spot for tourists from all over the world. But it is also an excellent opportunity for property owners: renting out your home as a holiday rental can generate very attractive returns. In this article, we tell you how much you can earn with a holiday rental in Fuengirola, which factors influence profitability, and how at GR Estates we help turn your property into a safe and worry-free investment.

Factors influencing profitability

Not all properties generate the same income. Profit depends on several factors:

• Location: Properties close to the beach or with sea views are the most sought-after.

• Season: Prices rise considerably during summer and Easter.

• Type of property: A two-bedroom flat in the city centre can be almost fully booked year-round, while villas or penthouses usually command higher rates, albeit with longer stays.

• Professional management: Having a team that handles marketing, bookings, check-ins, cleaning and maintenance makes all the difference in occupancy and guest satisfaction.

Advantages of renting with GR Estates

According to tourist portals and our own experience at GR Estates:

• A one-bedroom apartment near the beach can generate between €8,000 and €12,000 per year.

• A well-located two-bedroom flat, between €12,000 and €20,000 per year.

• A villa or premium property with sea views can easily exceed €30,000 per year.

These figures are indicative, as they depend on annual occupancy, the pricing strategy and the management services contracted.

 Why is Fuengirola a safe bet?

Fuengirola is one of the most attractive destinations on the Costa del Sol, both for tourists and for owners looking to profit from their property. Its privileged climate, with over 300 days of sunshine a year, ensures a constant flow of visitors almost all year round. In addition, the town perfectly combines the charm of a coastal destination with a wide cultural, gastronomic and leisure offer, making it a favourite choice for families, couples and European retirees who return season after season.

The excellent connection to Málaga city and the international airport, just a few minutes away by train or road, makes it easy for tourists from all over the world to arrive, ensuring a high occupancy rate for properties aimed at holiday rentals. Added to this is the stability of the tourist market in the area: Fuengirola does not depend solely on the summer season but maintains strong demand all year round thanks to events, conferences and its Mediterranean lifestyle, increasingly valued by foreigners.

In short, investing in a rental here means investing in a consolidated destination with sustained and constantly growing demand, where your property not only generates income but also increases in value over time. Fuengirola is one of the cities with the highest demand for holiday rentals on the Costa del Sol.
