What to look for in a holiday apartment in Valencia to feel at home

Choosing a holiday apartment shouldn't be a lottery. However, many people discover upon arrival that what seemed ideal in photos isn't so great in reality.

If you want to enjoy Valencia and feel truly comfortable during your stay , these are the key things you should keep in mind.

The most common mistake when booking

The common mistake is prioritizing only price or photos. A vacation rental should function well beyond just one night : rest, location, amenities, and service make all the difference.

10 keys to choosing the right holiday apartment

1. Actual location (not just “close to everything”)

Check connections, green areas, transport and actual access to the places you are going to visit.

2. Quality rest

A good mattress, effective blinds and sound insulation are essential to enjoy your stay.

3. Well-equipped kitchen

Even if you eat out, you'll appreciate having a functional and fully equipped kitchen.

4. Professional Cleaning

It's non-negotiable. Cleanliness makes the first impression… and subsequent ones.

5. Reliable WiFi

Especially important if you work, plan routes, or need to be connected.

6. Adequate air conditioning

Valencia has intense, humid summers. Thermal comfort matters.

7. Space and distribution

It's not all about square footage: a good layout makes an apartment much more comfortable.

8. Simple check-in

Flexibility and clarity upon arrival prevent unnecessary stress.

9. Attention during the stay

Knowing there's someone on the other end brings peace of mind.

10. Transparency

Clear conditions, no surprises or fine print.

Whether you're traveling for events, sports, or work

Valencia hosts sporting events, concerts, and conferences throughout the year. In these cases, it's advisable to look for:

• Good connection to key areas
  
  

• Spaces to rest and recover
  
  

• Peaceful surroundings at the end of the day
  
  

The location can make the difference between enjoying yourself or arriving exhausted.
