In April 2025, rental prices across Málaga province continued to display significant disparities, influenced largely by geographic location and demand. Data from Idealista highlights this trend, pointing to a clear divergence between coastal and inland rental markets.
Inland Towns: Affordable Options for Renters
For budget-conscious tenants, towns such as Teba, Ardales, and Alameda stand out with average rents ranging between 4.6 and 5.2 euros per square meter. These locations offer a more affordable living alternative, being farther from the coast yet rich in cultural heritage and community spirit.
Coastal Demand Drives Higher Prices
In stark contrast, areas like Marbella and Benalmádena on the Costa del Sol are experiencing sustained demand, pushing average rents above 13 euros per square meter. This surge is driven by both local and international tenants attracted to the coastline’s amenities and lifestyle.
Factors Influencing Rental Disparities
Several factors contribute to the rental price variations within the province. Tourism, the proximity to Málaga’s urban center, and access to modern services significantly affect demand, making the Costa del Sol a premium rental area.
