Mid-Term Rentals in Valencia: Flex Living for Professionals and Digital Nomads

What is mid-term rental and why is Valencia the perfect fit?

Mid-term rentals in Valencia fill the gap between tourism and permanent living: stays of 15 days to 11 months in a fully equipped apartment, without the commitment of a long-term lease or the inflated prices of a hotel.

Valencia has exactly the right conditions for this lifestyle. A Mediterranean climate, an efficient public transport network, neighbourhoods with their own distinct character — like Ruzafa or El Carmen — and a cost of living well below Madrid or Barcelona. It is no coincidence that the city has consistently ranked among the top destinations for European professionals, digital nomads and expats looking to settle in Spain on their own terms.

Flex living: a new way to inhabit a city

Flex living is the natural evolution of mid-term rental. It is not simply a shorter contract; it is a way of life where the apartment arrives ready to live in: furniture, kitchenware, bed linen, high-speed wifi, utilities and cleaning services all included. You arrive with your suitcase and start your life in the city from day one.

This model responds to a reality that more and more people share:

• Multi-month professional projects in a new city
• Remote workers who want to live in different destinations without being tied down
• Expats looking for a comfortable base while searching for permanent housing
• Company-relocated professionals who need a hassle-free solution
• People going through a life transition — separation, renovation, a fresh start

If any of these sound familiar, a mid-term rental in Valencia is not just a practical option — it is the one that makes the most sense.

The difference is in the details: what makes a DLS Spaces apartment stand out

There are plenty of short and mid-term rental options in Valencia. What sets DLS Spaces apart is not a single feature but the combination of decisions that turn an apartment into a home.

Full building management. We manage entire buildings, not individual units. This allows us to control every aspect of the experience: common areas, preventive maintenance, cleaning and resident support. The result is a consistent quality standard that a private landlord simply cannot guarantee. Several of our buildings also hold green building certification, exceeding the energy efficiency and environmental quality standards required by current regulations.

In-house cleaning and maintenance team. We do not outsource. Our own team handles the upkeep and cleaning of every apartment, which means a consistently high standard. When you walk in for the first time, the apartment is in exactly the same condition as the day we prepared it — no surprises, no oversights.

The feeling of a home, not a transit space. Every DLS apartment is thoughtfully furnished and cared for so you feel comfortable from the moment you open the door. The choice of furniture, lighting and finishing touches makes the difference the instant you arrive.

Everything included from day one. High-speed wifi, utilities, fully equipped kitchen, bed linen and towels. There is nothing to set up, no services to register for, nothing to wait for.

Our own technology platform. Everything — from booking to adding extra services — is managed through our online platform. The reservation process is fully guided: just follow a few simple steps and your apartment is confirmed. No unnecessary calls, no paperwork, no waiting around.

Close, personal support. Our team is available to resolve any issue quickly. No endless forms or ticket systems — real people who know the apartments and care about your stay.

How much does a mid-term rental in Valencia cost?

DLS Spaces apartments start from €1,800 per month, all inclusive. Seen in isolation, that figure might seem high compared to a standard rental. But a fair comparison is not that straightforward.

A conventional rental in Valencia means signing a minimum one-year contract, providing a bank guarantee, paying agency fees, buying furniture and kitchenware, setting up utilities separately and taking on maintenance costs. When you add all of that up for a stay of several months, the real difference with a DLS Spaces apartment shrinks considerably — and in many cases disappears entirely.

On top of that, there is the value that has no direct price tag: moving in on day one without any admin, having an in-house maintenance team on call, living in a professionally managed building and receiving personal support whenever you need it. These are advantages the traditional Valencia rental market simply does not offer.

The best neighbourhoods for a mid-term stay in Valencia

Ruzafa is the most sought-after neighbourhood among professionals and digital nomads. Cosmopolitan, full of good cafés, restaurants of every kind and an active cultural scene. Excellently connected to the city centre.

El Carmen, in the heart of the old town, combines architectural heritage with nightlife and a well-established creative community. The right choice if you want a neighbourhood with real character.

Pla del Real / Eixample are quieter, more residential areas — ideal if you prioritise quality of daily life over the buzz of the centre. Well connected and with every service within easy reach.

DLS Spaces has apartments in Valencia's most sought-after areas. You can check availability and see which apartments fit what you are looking for directly in our listings.
