  • How much does cleaning cost in Málaga?

    Málaga is one of the most active rental markets on the Costa del Sol — a mix of long-term residents, holiday lets, and short-stay apartments in the city centre. Cleaning prices reflect that variety. Here’s what you can expect to pay.

    Typical cleaning prices in Málaga

    • Regular home cleaning: €14–€20 per hour. City-centre apartments typically take 2–3 hours.
    • Deep clean: €150–€300 depending on property size and condition.
    • Airbnb turnaround: €50–€100 for a two-bedroom, including linen.
    • End-of-tenancy clean: €180–€400. Usually requires a quote after photos or a visit.

    Málaga city vs the coast

    Properties in Málaga city centre (Centro Histórico, La Malagueta, Pedregalejo) tend to attract slightly lower prices than beachfront properties or larger villas further up the coast. But a well-equipped apartment in a Málaga high-rise can take longer to clean than a small villa — lift access, multiple floors, and parking restrictions all affect how long cleaners spend on-site.

  • Apartment cleaning in Málaga: regular vs one-off service explained

    Whether you own an apartment in Málaga as a primary home, a holiday rental, or an investment property, the type of cleaning service you need depends on how the property is used. Here’s how regular and one-off cleans compare.

    Regular cleaning

    A regular cleaning contract — weekly, fortnightly, or monthly — is suitable if the property is occupied or actively rented. The cleaner learns the property, builds a routine, and the work stays manageable with each visit. Regular clients almost always get better rates than one-off bookings, and you don’t need to brief someone new each time.

    For Airbnb apartments in Málaga, a regular arrangement with a dedicated cleaner who handles turnarounds automatically is the most efficient setup.

    One-off cleans

    A one-off clean makes sense when: you need a deep clean before putting the property on the market, a tenant has just moved out, you’re arriving after a long absence, or the property needs a reset before the summer season. One-off cleans are priced per job rather than per hour, and cleaners will quote based on current condition.

    What does each cost in Málaga?

    • Regular fortnightly clean, 2-bed apartment: €50–€80 per visit
    • One-off standard clean, 2-bed apartment: €80–€120
    • One-off deep clean, 2-bed apartment: €150–€280

    Post a job on SAM with the details of your Málaga apartment and the type of clean you need — cleaners in the area will quote directly.
