Bungalows for long-term rental in Alcúdia

Bungalows for long-term rental in Alcúdia — what you need to know

Bungalows for long-term rental in Alcúdia are a popular choice for international buyers on the Mallorca. Here is our complete guide — with prices, practical advice and what to look out for.

Bungalows (plantas bajas or bungalows) are single-storey properties in Alcúdia that are particularly popular with retirees and couples who want a practical home with no stairs and direct access from all rooms onto a terrace or garden. The property type is well represented in urbanizaciones on the Mallorca and typically comes with a small private terrace or front garden, while the urbanización's shared pool is used rather than a private one. Pricewise, bungalows sit close to apartment level, but with the advantage of outdoor space and direct access to the garden.

In Alcúdia, bungalows are a sought-after property type for those who want accessibility and simplicity. No stairs is a genuine practical advantage in everyday life — particularly relevant for buyers who are already planning to use the property as their primary residence over the coming decades, or for those considering renting to a wider audience including guests with mobility needs. Bear in mind that ground-floor units (plantas bajas) tend to be slightly darker and can have more damp than upper floors — good ventilation and insulation are important things to check.

A bungalow in Alcúdia is particularly sought-after by those planning to live permanently or semi-permanently on the Mallorca. The supply of bungalows on the market is relatively limited compared with apartments and townhouses, and the most desirable are south-facing with a direct view of the communal pool — these sell quickly and typically hold their value well over time. Consider whether single-storey living suits your long-term needs before committing.

Prices for bungalows in Alcúdia
