Renting a flat in Alicante
Alicante is a sunny port city on Spain's Costa Blanca, popular with retirees, remote workers and students. Apartments near the beach command a premium, and a tram network runs along the coast.
Areas to look at
- Centro: central, shops and the old town
- Playa de San Juan: long beach, modern blocks
- Ensanche Diputación: elegant, central avenues
- El Barrio: historic quarter, nightlife
Local rules
- Since 1 July 2025 every unit offered for short-term rental on online platforms must carry a number from the national Registro Único de Arrendamientos; listings without it cannot be offered. Regional tourism licences still apply on top. (source, 2025-07)
