- In this video I show you what kind of apartment you can rent in Spain for a cheap price. I was renting an apartment for 600 Euros that had 2 bedrooms in El Molinillo neighborhood in Malaga, Spain. I show you the apartment and talk about the monthly bills, including gas, water and electricity. I was in the process of moving to a new apartment, a little closer to the Historic Center of Malaga. I show you the new apartment, which is is a bit cheaper and smaller. It is a bit newer and has more amenities like air conditioning. In this video you can get an idea of what apartments look like and what you can get for 600 Euros or less per month. Let me show you what cheap living in Spain looks like. Vlog 141

That was very helpful thank you. I’m looking for annual rental in Benalmádena because of your video there but can’t start until travel begins from Florida. Malaga area looks perfect for me and I can’t wait. Best of luck in your new place. It looks really good and I’m sure you will be happy there
Thanks so much and best of luck with you rental quest. Hope everyone is well in the Sunshine State.
I like these small apartments and studios in spain fully equipped.Thanks for useful video , please more with same kind of videos about Spain.
Glad you enjoyed the information about the apartments here in Spain. For the money, these small apartments offer great value, especially when considering this beautiful location. Thanks for watching.
We love your new place. The owners have it very well arranged, and you are probably going to sleep far more comfortably. Like you said, the apartment has lots of light, and for one person....it's perfect! Hope you really enjoy it there! Thanks for all the information. It gives us a good idea of what we can expect!
Glad I could be of help. Yes, I am sleeping a whole lot better now. Thank you.
Thank you for giving us a tour in your Malaga apartment. Might be a good idea for a winter getaway from the cold :)
You're very welcome. Great place to spend the winter for sure. Thanks This is our World. 👍🏻😎
Love this video! Thanks for all the info and the look inside your 2 places. I have been curious about the apartments there and the cost. Your new place looks very nice an I am sure you will enjoy the air conditioning. Are all of the apartments furnished there? Take care!
If you are renting short term, than yes they come furnished. Some long term rental apartments are not. Usually the listing will read "Totalmente Equipado" which means fully equipped. The word for furniture is (muebles) , it may say con (with) or sin (without). But yes, any short term rental of less than a year would normally be fully furnished.
Thanks for the info
Oh I love that balcony..I'd be out there all the time!
Hi Gwyneth, it's nice to have a balcony, even if it is a small one. Thanks
Thank you for this! Super helpful. I'm getting frustrated with the agency fees and I keep searching idealista..hoping to find something soon
Glad it was helpful! Best of luck Daya.
Hiya, great information. Good luck in your new place, it looks lovely, thank you for sharing. Stay safe.
I am enjoying the new apartment, especially the air conditioning. I discovered how hot my old apartment actually was. Thanks so much, hope things are going well for you. 😎
@@TravelAddictGuy Air conditioning omg could have used that last few days here in the UK, been too much, need a beach and sea breeze oh I wish, how you finding it being smaller, I am keeping well thank you I hope you are too.
@@NickyDunn So far it seems ok, as my other apartment was not large compared to US size, I was already a bit used to a smaller space. Gives me more incentive to get out and enjoy the world as well.
You're adorable and I loved your video ! Very informative.
Appreciate your detailed info.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi again! I come back to see the grinder and I see is a doser one not on demand. Mine is also a doser, Kompak K3 doser. I'm looking for a on demand one but they are expensive...
My grinder has a doser, but I still use it to grind beans right before brewing. I bought them both together, they are both Gaggia. Try mil anuncios, I am guessing that many coffee shops probably closed. Good luck.
LOL ! I did hear wrong. I listened again and you said " a room in an apartment" but you said it so fast it sounded like "roman apartment" Sorry !!! Anyway, I still enjoyed your video. My husband has been in Madrid since may, we are retired, and plan to relocate there, hopefully I will be joining him soon. I also have a friend in Malaga and she loves it.
No worries, Malaga is a great city. Living there is a great life. Good luck!
wow...thanks for the breakdown man !
Glad it was helpful!
I love Spain so much. Very beautiful country. Can’t wait to visit once the covid restrictions are lifted.
Please do! It's a great country to see.
What a great video traveladdictguy. Excellent information. The apartments are quite nice. The smaller apartment is very modern and a plus with the air conditioning. The blinds are very cool. Since the two bedroom was older did the landlord keep up with the repairs on an older apartment. How many steps did you have to go up and down every day compared to the more modern apartment? Just curious.
Those are great questions. The old apartment had a few issues here and there. The washer was old, the mattress on the bed was not so great, sometimes the the breaker on the electric box would flip. The landlord did come to make repairs, but usually in the cheapest manner possible. It was on the 3rd floor with no elevator, many of these old building don't have elevators. That might be a problem for some people. My new apartment is on the 2 floor and like you said, a bit more modern. Hope you are doing well.
Thanks for info 👍
You're welcome. Hope you have a nice day.
Every city on the seashores of Mediterenean of Spain are very attractive ,lively and with bright lightnings at nights. Spain is very advanced country with 1000 euros of rents very costly in big cities.
This is a great place to live, anywhere along the Spanish coast really. Rents are cheaper here in the South in many places then in the big cities, totally agree. Glad to see that you are a fan of Spain, like I am. Thanks so much.
Hi Kerry a very informative video. A nice compact appartment. I should imagine you would be able to get a bargain now with all this covid going on. I think if you're living by the sea you would get a nice sea breeze. All the best
Hi Janet, I have been paying the same price unfortunately because I signed a contract. Surprisingly long term rentals have not come down much, things like Air BNB and hostels are very cheap though.
@@TravelAddictGuy hopefully prices will come down fingers crossed
A better use of space in the kitchen would have been to put shelves in that large cupbaord where the electric boiler is and to take out the dishwasher too and just put a normal cupboard.
Hi David, I think you're right. I have never even used the dishwasher one time. The washer is awesome, it's also a dryer, it does both. All in all a great little apartment.
Hello
I’m from ThaIland.
Your video was great !! It give me some insight into rent an apartment in Spain.
I plan to go to Spain for a course of training in Las Plamas, Gran Canaria, next year for 9 months.
And have a few more questions about getting an apartment.
Would you mind if I were to ask you some more questions ?
Happy you enjoyed the video. What else would you like to know?
@@TravelAddictGuy
Thank you for any help you can give.
1. Are most of the apartments non-air conditioned ? How would I know from the brokers’ web site that it has air conditioning or not ?
2. Are the apartment brokers trust worthy ?
3. Is it possible to make a rental deal with the owner even if the apartment is in the brokers’ list ?
4. Is it possible to make a 9-month contract, or does it needs to be at least one year ? Or is it negotiable ?
Thanks again.
Thank you for the information. I enjoyed your explanation.
You are quite welcome, that's what I am hear for to answer your questions and give you information.
Great video. Big fan of the channel
Hi V, much appreciated. Hope you are well.😎
Great information bro thank you 💪
Glad that you found it helpful, it's what I wish I knew before moving to Spain.
Very useful info Tag, you are a straight shooter
Thanks my friend.
$730 US dollars a month! Wow! That's not bad at all. I love your wooden floors.
None of these apartments had wood floors, must just look like that in the video. The prices to rent are quite reasonable, if you shop around. You need to rent directly from the owners though, if you go through an agency, they will tack on their fees. Good luck!
@@TravelAddictGuy Whoops. My bad. Was that tile instead? 🤔
What's a roman appartement ?I think airconditioning is necessary(no luxury) in Spain in the summer months.
I think you misheard what I said, maybe a "normal" apartment. But I'm not sure. I went through 4 years with no air conditioning in Spain and many Spaniards don't have Air Conditioning. So to them yes it's a luxury.
Hi thanks for all the videos, love watching them, very informative. Ive been coming to los boliches for a few years, I stay on the front, love it there. Hope you have settled into your new apartment. Take care, stay safe. Deb (Cardiff) 😃
Thanks for the kind words about my videos. That's a beautiful area, I made a video there recently. Yes, enjoying the new place. Its quiet and I am getting more work done.
Your very welcome, Yes I think I seen it will have to check though. you are right is beautiful, I find it quieter than Fuengirola. I always stay at the Jabaga. Might c u in los boliches one year lol 😃due out 29-08-20, flight not been cancelled, yet. My dream to live in boliches
@@deborahrobinson7655 That's a great area along the coast for sure. If you see me, be sure to say hello. Hope you enjoy your trip.
Hi TAG thanks for showing us the inside of your apartments. I'm very nosy and like watching other ppl's way of life. The apt I rent up in Torre del Mar is on the 1st line to the beach and in the centre of town and it costs me 450 per month plus electric. Thats for alquilar temporada. I think its lower for annual rental. Its also an old building but has two bedrooms plus wi fi and shopping trolley and everything you'd want. I'm super happy there, been using it since 2009. All the same ppl rent it every year. I've seen places for as low as 300. You'd need to find an owner or a Spanish Inmobilaria. Only 4 weeks till I'm returning there hopefully if things don't get worse
Yes, I think that area would be a bit less expensive than Malaga. Sounds like you have a good deal where you are at. Most of the Spanish apartments are older, as you said, that's why I wanted to show people inside some. Glad you liked my video. Hope everyone is well in Ireland.
@@TravelAddictGuy thanks, so far so good here in Ireland. The media keep the fear going. Now when things get better they talk about a second wave. Best not to pay too much attention
@@pinkpoodlepaloma I recommend you to ignore all media for your health, they enjoy keep people in fear .
@@user-FM1 Yes, It's the same in America. Plus they have made the masks a political issue.
Is it cheaper higher up the coast? Like Torrevieja?
Malaga seems more costly??
I don't know really, maybe a bit, but not much.
That’s such a cool apartment .. reminds me of the place I stayed in Madrid
It's really great, small but cozy and the location is perfect.
My greatgrandmother came from Spain to Puerto rico .
That's wonderful, is she from Andalucia?
Im interested in renting an apartment or studio flat in Malaga, Southern Spain!
Very cool, I am sure that you will enjoy living here.
@@TravelAddictGuy 🙏🙏🙏
Are utilities included on rent there?
It depends on who you rent from. This apartment water is included, I only have to pay the electric bill. All of the appliances are electric here though. In my old apartment, I had to pay all of the utilities separate. The ad should specify, make sure that you discuss that ahead of time.
How much is your monthly electricity?
I no longer live there, it used to be 60 Euros or less. I'm sure it's higher now.
Buenos dias Gracia for your information,,we are planning to move to benalmadena Spain October we have apartment near the playa,, for 3 months private,, rent but with all the disruption I'm really concerned,,of all the news,,how we will be treated,,!!🤔😷💉
I think you will be treated fine, as long as you follow the rules and wear a mask. They have installed thermal sensors in the airports, to check if someone has a fever. So rest up before your trip, so you will be well when traveling. Hope you enjoy your trip.
Hi! Great upload, thanks for sharing my friend. Lk 31+ full support.
All the best
Thank you 👍
So it's better to live in malaga than barca and Madrid ?
It depends on what you like. It's quieter here and cheaper. You also have the beach and an International airport. I chose to live here, but other might like another city.
@@TravelAddictGuy cool thanks what's the total expenses to live in malaga for one person
Good content man.
Thanks for saying that.
What is a roman apartment ?
I don't know, you must have missheard what I said.
Rent an apartment in Portugal instead. Cheaper friendlier and you can stay for 180 days+ instead of Spain's 90 days
Hi K, thanks for the advice. I am planning on heading over to Portugal at the end of summer, so we will see what it costs. Thanks.
I believe Portugal falls under the same Schengen zone agreement as Spain. You can stay 90 days in any 180 day period without a specific visa. To stay longer than 90 you need a Visa.
Por 600€ está bien para 1 mes de agosto yo vivo en apartamento 1 habitación por 450€
Si, no esta malo los precios.
Gosh, my propane in the UK costs me £1000 at least a year... but I can't imagine having cold showers.. arrrgghh!!!
It's much warmer here in the South of Spain, so you really don't bwant hot showers for much of the year. I used the most gas here in the winter months, of course. Take care.
Andalucían summer heat means water in pipes doesn't get 🧊 freezing like UK and 3 cool showers a day and one B4 bed felt fantastic when up in the 40s 🥵🚿
Plus a damp bath towel covering my dog in a heatwave 🐶🧺💦 🥰
Properties orientated East to West 🧭 could be more self cooling, with no South sun beating in all day, plus the 💫 magic of sunsets to come home to 🌅
Love all the details Kerry explains 🏆👏
Go to Bulgaria cheaper!!! Also electricity is expensive!!! Romania
Hi Capasso, my stepfather is from Romania, would like to visit one day.
I just hope you are not paying much for that. Whoever is renting is taking advantage. Never seen a place like that. Too expensive. Believe me.
Apartments in the city center are expensive, Studios used to rent for around 600 Euros, even now they ae not that much cheaper. If you get a bigger apartment with a few bedrooms you can pay 750 -900 maybe, but then you need roommates and I don't really like those. Cheers.
@@TravelAddictGuy That's expensive. But it's new and clean. Enjoy it.
sorry to hear your econmic problems its world wide problem
not everyone knows how much euros are compared to american money
The price of Euros to dollars is constantly changing, so I have to give the price in the local currency. A quick internet search will give you the current exchange rate of your currency to Euros. This is something you need to learn about if traveling abroad, the prices are always in the local currency.
Oh and they don t give your deposit back,!!! So don t pay the last month!@
Yes it can happen sometimes, luckily I speak Spanish and get to know the owner personally. I did have some issues with the previous landlord when I went to move out, he was not very happy. He did give me the deposit, but took some off for damages. It was not very nice of him.
