About RivaStay

Local hosts, on the Costa del Sol.

We manage vacation rentals the way we'd want ours managed β€” properly cleaned, clearly communicated, and cared for like they're still someone's home. Because they are.

Maritza, founder of RivaStay

Our story

RivaStay started with a simple frustration: too many property owners on the Costa del Sol were stuck choosing between doing everything themselves or handing their property to a faceless management company that treated it like a number on a spreadsheet.

We built RivaStay to be the option in between β€” a local team that manages your property hands-on, communicates transparently, and treats every stay like it matters. Today we manage 20+ properties across five of the region's most sought-after towns.

We're a family business, and that shapes how we work. We've seen what it looks like when guests or owners get taken advantage of β€” hidden fees, listings that don't match reality, management that disappears after signing β€” and we built RivaStay to be the opposite of that.

"We'd definitely stay again β€” everything matched the listing. Parking was easy nearby, and the location couldn't be beat. The only downside was the stairs, but that's a small trade-off for a great stay."
