By Kamila Bukowska, founder of CASA READY · As of October 2026
Short answer
Is holiday renting in Calpe worth it? Yes, if location and finish are right: no moratorium is known and licences are being granted. Actively rented holiday homes in Calpe are booked 66% of the time according to AirDNA (October 2025 to September 2026), at an average of €166 per night. For a newly launched two-bedroom apartment we plan with 58% in the first year, around 191 booked nights at €150. That means around €28,650 gross income per year; €25,200 to €32,700 depending on the scenario (cautious to market level).
The figures for Calpe
Three scenarios for a two-bedroom apartment. The plan value applies to the first year of letting, without reviews or repeat guests; the market level is what established homes achieve today.
| Scenario | Occupancy | Nights per year | Gross income 2-bed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cautious | 51% | 168 | €25,200 |
| Plan value first year | 58% | 191 | €28,650 |
| Market level | 66% | 218 | €32,700 |
Gross income = booked nights × plan rate for 2 bedrooms (€150), before platform fees, management, running costs and taxes; 330 marketable nights. Our method is explained in the comparison of all 16 towns.
