Valencia has a way of winning you over from day one – and it’s no wonder. It’s one of those cities that you need to live, not just visit.
If you’re thinking of spending a few months here (whether for work or simply a change of scenery), the key is doing it your way – without the hassle.
Looking for a monthly rental in Valencia doesn’t have to be a drama. But it’s worth knowing what you want, which neighbourhoods suit you best, and what amenities will make your stay far more comfortable.
That’s why we’ve put together this guide to help you find the perfect medium-term flat in Valencia.
What Type of Accommodation Should You Choose?
First things first – figure out what you need.
A work stay is very different to a few months of remote working or taking time out. Either way, fully furnished flats are usually the best option. Just bring your suitcase – no need to worry about furniture, appliances, or kitchenware.
Another key point: make sure utilities and Wi-Fi are included. Many private rentals don’t offer this, which can complicate budgeting or lead to contracts you don’t want.
That’s why more and more people are choosing accommodation specifically designed for medium stays – ready to live in from day one.
Also look for flexible contracts. Unlike long-term rentals that require a minimum 12-month commitment, here you can usually rent for three to six months with no penalties.
Flexibility is key.
Best Neighbourhoods for Monthly Rentals in Valencia
It’s not just about the flat – location matters too. Choose a neighbourhood where you’ll have:
-
Good transport options
-
Nearby supermarkets, leisure and interest points
-
A nice, peaceful vibe
-
Safety day and night
-
Green spaces or areas to walk
El Carmen and Ciutat Vella
El Carmen never goes out of style.
Located in the historic centre, you can walk almost everywhere.
There are bars, shops, markets, yoga centres, coworking spaces, terraces – all just minutes away. If you want to live the real Valencian lifestyle without sacrificing convenience, this is ideal.
You’ll find stylish, functional apartments in unbeatable locations – not just because they’re central, but because public transport and bike hire make getting around a breeze.
Note: it’s a lively area. If you’re looking for peace and quiet, you might want to explore elsewhere. But if you love being where things are happening, this is a safe bet.
Ruzafa
Ruzafa has grown without losing its authenticity.
It’s cool, it’s creative – and a favourite for medium-term visitors to Valencia.
Expect proper coffee shops, independent bookstores, design boutiques, cultural spaces… it’s a mix of classic and modern that really works.
Perfect for those looking for more than just a place to sleep. Here, you’ll find stylish apartments with light, space and design that stands out.
It’s well-connected, too. You can walk to the centre, take the bus, or get around by scooter. If you work remotely, you’ll love the nearby cafés and coworking spots.
Les Tendetes
If you want a well-connected neighbourhood with character and local charm, Les Tendetes might surprise you.
Part of the La Zaidía district, it has deep roots and unique landmarks – like the Torreta Arch on Visitación Street, a rare glimpse of its rural history with old mills and farmhouses.
Living in Les Tendetes gives you the best of both worlds: a quiet, residential area with leafy streets and local life, yet just a stone’s throw from the centre and the Turia river park.
From here, you can walk to El Carmen, the Botanic Garden, or the river itself for jogging, relaxing or just clearing your head.
The area is packed with shops, cafés, and great public transport links.
If you’re staying in Valencia for a few months and want somewhere comfortable, authentic and well-located, Les Tendetes is well worth considering.
When Should You Start Looking?
Even though Valencia has a lively rental market, don’t leave it too late if you want a well-located, high-quality flat – demand is strong.
For 3- to 6-month stays, it’s ideal to start searching one or two months in advance. This gives you time to compare, read the fine print, and make sure everything fits.
Keep in mind that certain months (like September and January) are busier due to people starting new projects. If you can, avoid the peak times – or book early to get the best options.
