Spain-Holiday.com · Holiday Rental Prices Report

Spain is known for its Costas, the sandy stretches of coastline that attract millions of visitors every year. Most people tend to head to the better-known Costas: Costa del Sol, Costa Blanca and Costa Dorada but Spain has more than 3,000 miles of coastline with hidden coves, shallow and tranquil bays, and undulating sand dunes that perhaps you have never heard of.

Each Costa has its own distinct characteristics and personality but additionally, as this report shows, the disparity in pricing in the high season also varies considerably.

2017 marked a turning point in tourism in Spain. It was a record-breaking year regarding the number of tourists, but the celebrations of the landmark figure were slightly marred by some complaints of the negative impact of “over tourism” in the most popular destinations such as Barcelona and Palma de Mallorca.

If things are to improve in 2018, we need to seek out brave, alternative adventures and step away from the most popular tourist destinations in the most popular weeks of the year.

This report reveals some invaluable insights for travellers looking to beat the crowds and get a great deal on their summer holiday in Spain.

Flexible travel dates can reap the biggest bargains:

• Just one week either side of the peak season can see prices drop by an average of up to 13 per cent.

• Two weeks either side of peak season and you could save up to an average of 32 per cent.

Spain-Holiday.com encourages travellers to consider alternatives to the usual hotspots and instead consider different destinations and activities, away from the crowds and peak season.

Explore new areas. For example, the tranquil Costa Calida has sea temperatures 5°C warmer than the neighbouring Costa Blanca thanks to its protected location in the Gulf of Mazarron. The Costa de Almeria has the warmest temperatures in mainland Spain as well as the cheapest average rental rates, yet it is one of the least visited destinations. And the Costa Tropical has the only subtropical microclimate in the whole of Europe, yet it is relatively undiscovered compared to the neighbouring Costa del Sol.

Executive Summary Welcome to our

Holiday Rental Prices Report for Summer 2018

Jannich F. PetersenCOO, Spain-Holiday.com



This latest Travel Trends Report by Spain-Holiday.com studies the price variations of holiday rental properties in high season and shoulder seasons in summer 2018.

Destinations were selected based on the top ten summer destinations on Spain-Holiday.com from November 2016 for a 12-month period. Fieldwork was conducted in December 2017. The destinations included are: Costa de la Luz, Costa del Sol, Costa Tropical, Costa de Almeria, Costa Calida, Costa Blanca, Costa de Valencia, Costa del Azahar, Costa Dorada and Costa Brava.

Results show high season rates for each destination with peak rental prices and off-peak reduced rates for summer 2018. Prices are based on a one-week’s stay for 4 guests, arriving/departing on a Saturday.

The study compares weekly rates, in June, July, August and September 2018. The data was requested on 4th December 2017.

Exchange rate as per 18th December 2017 of €1 to £0.88.

High Season - the time of year when a place has most tourists or visitors. In mainland Spain this is usually the months of July and August.

Low Season - the time of year when a destination receives the least visitors. Warm weather is not guaranteed during this period and often tourist attractions and amenities are closed in low season.

Peak Rates - the most expensive weeks within high season.

Shoulder/Off-Peak Season - the time between high season and low season when the weather is still good, the crowds have thinned out, tourist attractions and amenities are still open, but travel and accommodation prices have dropped.

The table and graph below show the peak rate weeks in red, and the cheapest weeks in green.

The results indicate that the high season runs from the 7th July until the end of August. The first two weeks of August are the peak of the high season on the majority of Costas.

Both Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca have the highest prices per week, and maintain a steady peak rate during almost the entire high season of July and August.

It is notable how Costa de Almeria is significantly cheaper compared to all the other Costas throughout the whole summer period of June-September.

Costa Dorada has the biggest range in pricing, varying more than £500, from £894 in the peak of the high season (early August), to £366 in the shoulder season (end of September).

In comparison, Costa de Almeria has the least range in pricing, varying only £123, from £480 in the peak of high season (early August), to £357 in the shoulder season (beginning of June).

The Costa de la Luz is the only Costa situated on the Atlantic coastline included in this report. It is characterised by its undeveloped coastline and natural beauty.

Surprisingly, the Costa de la Luz is one of the most expensive Costas for accommodation due to limited availability. Accommodation tends to be private villas and there are no large tourist resorts along this stretch of coastline.
