Spotahome follows a similar business model to online holiday rentals, but instead focuses on finding you a home for stays of a minimum of 30 days, dependent on city regulations. We are an 100% online booking platform, offering an exhaustive list of apartments, rooms, studios, and student residences. We’re for anyone, regardless of age or professional status.

The Spotahome experience removes the need for in-person viewings, saving both tenants and landlords time and expense. We show you real photos and high-quality videos of the property and neighbourhood. We also design floor plans and write detailed descriptions about the home and local area.

We play a pivotal role in eliminating communication and language barriers between local landlords and foreign tenants by offering excellent customer support in several languages on both sides. We currently have more than 150 employees of different nationalities.

This is the story of an international startup from its beginnings. Before creating Spotahome, our four founders, led by Alejandro Artacho, had lived and traveled all over the world. They knew the hurdles and pitfalls that you need to navigate to rent a home, wherever you are.

So they formulated a question: how easy should renting a home be?

They realised two things:

• The housing sector was dominated by classified websites, local real estate agencies, and platforms aimed at holiday or short-term rentals.
• Customers visiting holiday rental platforms were happy to rent accommodation without visiting the properties – in fact, they were happy to do everything online

The answer: renting a home should be as easy as buying your shopping online. And so, in March 2014 in Madrid Spotahome was born.
