Marbella & Costa del Sol

Long-Term Rentals
on the Costa del Sol

Not every property should be a holiday rental. Some owners prefer steady monthly income over nightly bookings, and some properties simply earn better with one good tenant. Premavista rents out your property to carefully vetted long-term tenants across Marbella, Nueva Andalucía, San Pedro de Alcántara, Benahavís, Estepona and Elviria. We find the tenant and set everything up; you collect the rent. And if you want us to manage the rental too, we can, optionally.

Premavista is a boutique rental management company based in Marbella, Spain, founded in 2024 by Anastasia Grebelskaya and Roderick Stroethoff. In addition to short-term Airbnb and Booking.com management, Premavista rents out properties on long-term contracts of 12 months or more across Marbella, Nueva Andalucía, San Pedro de Alcántara, Benahavís, Estepona and Elviria. The core service is tenant placement: marketing, screening, the contract, deposit registration and check-in; the tenant then rents from the owner, not from Premavista. A long-term contract does not require a tourist licence. Placement costs one month's rent plus IVA, paid by the owner, as Spanish law requires. Optional full management costs 10% of monthly rent plus IVA, paid by the owner; with it, Premavista handles every tenant issue, repair and complaint, so the owner is never contacted by the tenant. Rent is always paid by the tenant directly to the owner. There are no setup fees or hidden costs. The team speaks English, Dutch, Spanish and Russian.

Two Ways to Work With Us

How Much Do You Want to Be Involved?

Tenant Placement

The core service. We market your property, screen every applicant rigorously, draft a solid contract, register the deposit and hand over the keys. From there the rent flows directly to you and you run the tenancy yourself. One fee, paid once, only when the property rents.

Placement Plus Full Management

For owners who never want to hear from a tenant. We place the tenant and then stay on as their only point of contact: repairs, inspections, renewals, rent reviews and every complaint come to us. You receive the rent and a quiet inbox. 10% of the monthly rent plus IVA.

Better as a Holiday Rental?

Short-term rental management is our speciality, and for a licensed property in the right location it can earn considerably more. We'll tell you honestly which model fits your property during the free assessment, even if the answer is not the one we'd profit from most. See the short-term service.

Simple Process

How It Works

Transparent from the first visit to the day your tenant moves in.

Free, Honest Assessment

We visit your property and tell you what it can realistically earn as a long-term let and as a holiday rental. With numbers, not sales talk, and no obligation.

Marketing & Screening

We list your property on Idealista and the leading portals, then vet every applicant: payslips, proof of income, references and identity checks. You have the final say on every tenant.

Move-In, Your Way

Contract signed, deposit registered, inventory documented, rent paid straight to your account. From here you can run it yourself, or add full management for 10% and never hear from the tenant.

Why Owners Choose This

When a Long-Term Let Beats Short-Term

You want zero involvement

No changeovers, no guest messages, no seasonal swings. One tenant, one monthly payment, one annual review.

Your community restricts holiday lets

More communities are limiting short-term rentals. A long-term let keeps neighbours happy and income flowing.

No tourist licence, no problem

Not every property can get a licence, and not every owner wants one. A long-term contract needs no licence at all and earns from day one.

The wrong tenant is expensive

A bad tenant costs far more than a placement fee. We verify income, check references and draft contracts that protect you before anyone gets a key.

What's Included

Renting It Out Is the Service

We find the tenant, set everything up and hand you a done deal. Everything below is included in the placement fee.

Marketing & Listing

Professional marketing and listing on Idealista and the leading long-term portals.

Tenant Screening

Income verification, references and background checks on every applicant.

Legally Sound Contracts

Long-term contracts drafted under Spanish tenancy law for your situation, in English and Spanish, with your right to recover the property properly documented.

Deposit & Compliance

Deposit registration with the Junta de Andalucía and full legal compliance.

Rent Paid Directly to You

The tenant pays rent straight into your account, not through ours. Your money never takes a detour.

Check-In & Inventory

Check-in, check-out and full inventory reports.

Optional: Full Management for 10%

Rather not lift a finger after the tenant moves in? Add full management for 10% of the monthly rent plus IVA and we become the tenant's only point of contact: every issue, repair and complaint comes to us, never to you. Inspections, maintenance, renewals and rent reviews are all handled, and the rent still goes directly to your account.

Tenant Vetting

Screening That Protects Your Income

The difference between a rental that runs itself and a rental that ruins your year is the tenant. So before anyone signs anything, we verify who they are and what they earn: payslips (nóminas), employment contracts or proof of self-employed income, previous landlord references and identity checks. Solvency first, sympathy second.

We then structure the contract and register the deposit so your position is as strong as Spanish law allows, including your right to recover the property for your own use if that is ever needed.

No screening can guarantee a perfect tenant. What it can do is remove the obvious risks before anyone gets a key, and that is where almost every rental horror story starts.

Common Questions

Long-Term Rentals - FAQs

No. Tourist licences only apply to short-term holiday rentals. A long-term contract of 12 months or more does not require any licence, which makes it the natural option for properties that cannot, or should not, be holiday lets.

The risk is real when tenants aren't vetted and contracts aren't drafted properly. That is exactly what we take care of: income verification, references, a correctly structured contract under Spanish tenancy law and a registered deposit. A well-chosen tenant on a well-drafted contract is one of the calmest ways to own property on the Costa del Sol.

The owner. For long-term contracts of 12 months or more, Spanish law requires the owner to pay the agency fee, and we follow the law to the letter. The fee is one month's rent plus IVA and covers marketing, full screening, the contract, deposit registration and check-in. If the property doesn't rent, you don't pay.

It depends on location, condition and whether it is furnished. We give you a realistic monthly figure after visiting the property, never a guess over email. The assessment is free and carries no obligation.

Under Spanish tenancy law a long-term tenant can extend the contract up to five years (seven if the owner is a company). If you may need the property back for your own use or for a close family member, this must be stated in the contract from day one, and we make sure it is. We explain exactly what you are signing before anyone moves in.

Yes, once the tenancy ends, provided the property holds a tourist licence. We run both services, so the switch is straightforward and you stay with the same team.

We market the property on Idealista and the leading portals, screen every applicant (income verification, payslips, references, identity), draft the contract in English and Spanish, register the deposit, document the inventory and hand over the keys. Rent then flows directly from the tenant to you.

Not if you choose full management. Every message, repair and complaint comes to us; we resolve it and keep you informed. The only thing that reaches you directly is the rent. If you prefer placement only, you take over the tenant relationship after check-in, with a properly drafted contract behind you.
