In Palmallorca, co-owners have the right to rent out their weeks — within a legal framework that protects both owners and guests
The 1–11 Month Rule in Mallorca
Mallorca has strict rules about short-term rentals. For tourist rentals (less than 30 days), properties must have a valid rental license (ETV). However, for mid- and long-term stays (1–11 months), no tourist license is required, as long as the property is rented under the legal framework of urban residential leases (Ley de Arrendamientos Urbanos – LAU).
This law makes it possible for co-owners to legally rent out their weeks, provided that stays are structured into blocks of at least 4 weeks.
Pooling Weeks for Rental Eligibility
Palmallorca’s booking and owner coordination platform makes it simple to group weeks across owners.
Here’s how it works:
- Each co-owner can mark selected weeks as available for rental.
- If a single owner doesn’t have 4 consecutive weeks, the system will suggest pooling with another owner’s available week(s).
- Once approved by all involved co-owners, the 4+ week block is published on Palmallorca Rentals, targeting long-stay visitors, remote workers, or digital nomads.
- Rental agreements and terms are fully aligned with LAU regulations.
All Rentals Are Company-Based, Not Personal
All rental activity is managed through the owning S.L. company, not by individuals.
This means:
- Rental income is booked to the company and allocated to the respective owner’s account.
- Earnings from rentals are automatically used to offset the owner’s share of annual costs.
- There is no personal taxation involved, as owners are not receiving direct payouts — only reduced expenses.
Guest Validation and Compliance
All guests staying in the property:
- Must present passport or ID for registration.
- Are verified and legally documented through our guest validation process.
- Sign a standard rental agreement, provided and managed by the administrator or property manager.
This guarantees that all stays meet local regulations and uphold the quality of the property for future use.
Rental Rights Are Fair and Transparent
Every 5-week (100-share) ownership block includes:
- The right to use, rent out, or gift your weeks.
- Full support from Palmallorca’s administrator to coordinate rentals on your behalf.
- The possibility to offer unused weeks in the community — or even swap them with other owners for better timing.
Key Takeaways
- You can legally rent out your co-owned weeks if the stay is 1 month or more.
- Pooling of weeks across owners makes it easy to comply with the law.
- Rental income is booked to your account to reduce shared costs — not taxed personally.
- All rental activity is 100% compliant with Spanish law and handled by the company.
