Airbnb-ready bedroom in Valencia apartment — short-term rental setup

First: the 2026 tourist licence rules

Since 25 May 2026, Valencia city limits new tourist rentals by area and by block. Tourist accommodation may not exceed 8% of residents or 2% of homes in a neighbourhood, or 15% of ground-floor premises on a block. In areas over these limits, flats in residential buildings get no new licences. A licence that already exists stays with the property when you buy.

What this means for you: check the licence (or the area's status) before you buy or furnish for Airbnb. If a tourist licence isn't possible, mid-term rentals (1–11 months) for remote workers and students are a common alternative, and we prepare those apartments the same way.

The rules change often. Confirm with a local lawyer or gestor before you invest.
