About investment and profitability
Is buying at Alcudia Luz a good investment?

- Attractive to international buyers (Germans, British, Scandinavians)
How much can I earn with vacation rental?
A villa in Alcudia with ETV license can generate between €35,000-55,000 gross annually, depending on:
- Rental season (summer only vs year-round)
- Occupancy level (marketing, reviews, competitive pricing)
- Villa quality and equipment
Keep in mind you must deduct management expenses, cleaning, maintenance and taxes.
Realistic net return
After expenses, the net return from vacation rentals in Alcudia is usually between 3.5% and 5% annually. It's not speculation, but a solid investment with additional asset appreciation.
Questions about the purchase process
How long does the entire process take from first visit?
A realistic timeline would be:
- Visits and decision: 1-4 weeks
- Reservation and deposit signing: 1-2 weeks
