BOOKING PROCESS
Our automatic system for availability and pricing calculation will allow you to choose the apartment you are interested in and immediately make an online reservation for it.
Initial payment: To book the chosen apartment, select it and include the requested information. If you ultimately wish to reserve the apartment, an initial online payment will be made with a credit card, representing 30% of the total amount. In case the provided credit card is not valid, and the charge cannot be processed by living4malaga.com, a member of our team will contact you using the phone number or email address you provided. If the change of the card number is not carried out or it is not possible to contact you through the provided contact information, the reservation will be canceled automatically. In that case, you will receive an email confirming the cancellation.
Reservation confirmation: Once the initial payment has been made, the reservation will be confirmed instantly, and you will receive a welcome email with all the details of your reservation (reservation data, apartment address, contact person’s information, etc.).
Final payment: The remaining 70% of the amount will be charged 4 days before your arrival at the selected apartment through a payment link on the secure Paygold platform.

ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES
Normal check-in time for the apartments: from 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
To check in after this time, you have 2 options:
- If you wish to have one of our employees go to the reserved apartment for key delivery, it is possible, but there will be an additional cost to your reservation:
Arrivals between 9:00 PM and 11:00 PM, €20.
Arrivals between 11:00 PM and 1:00 AM, €30.
Arrivals later than 1:00 AM, upon request.
- If you prefer to check in for free, you will need to go to our office at Carretería 43 and pick up the key, which will be placed in a secure box. If your accommodation has an electronic lock, you will receive instructions on how to access your accommodation directly.
For either option, you would need to pay the security deposit in advance and complete the online check-in (inputting the documentation of all guests).
Normal check-out time for the apartments: Before 12:00 p.m.
The customer must always inform us of the approximate arrival time and do the online check-in before the arrival.
At the time of arrival, the ID card or passport of the person who made the reservation and their companions over 16 years of age must be presented.
Departures after 12:00 PM without express permission from LIVING4MALAGA.com will incur an additional charge.
SECURITY DEPOSIT
LIVING4MALAGA.com reserves the right to require a security deposit of €150 – €1500 (this amount may vary depending on each accommodation; we advise you to review the conditions in the detailed description of each apartment). The deposit will be processed by retaining the amount on the card during your check-in at our reception or through a secure link payment a few days before your arrival.
After your departure from the apartment, the property will be inspected to confirm that it is in order and free from significant damage or loss of items such as keys. If everything is in order and if the deposit is required, the refund will be made using the same payment method. In case of key loss, a charge of €150 for the key loss will apply.
At living4malaga.com, we operate with empathy and common sense. We request that our guests leave the apartment in an orderly manner, remove the trash, clean dishes, and kitchenware, and leave the sets of keys where they were instructed during check-in.
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS BY THE CLIENT
In case the customer decides to change or modify the dates of arrival/departure or the number of people staying in a confirmed reservation, LIVING4MALAGA.com commits to finding a satisfactory solution whenever possible. However, the total price will not be modified if you want to reduce the number of days and/or the number of people from the previously reserved stay. In the event of requesting a change of ACCOMMODATION, the customer must cancel the previously confirmed reservation, adhering to the cancellation conditions, and then make a new reservation.
CANCELLATIONS
Please note that if you wish to cancel or modify your reservation, the amounts paid as booking fees will not be refunded or transferable unless you provide a notice at least 4 days prior to your reservation. Refunds, if applicable, will be processed via bank transfer within a maximum of 7 business days.
LIVING4MALAGA.com will only accept cancellations or modifications of your reservation in writing via email.
Failure to show up on the agreed date without prior notice will result in a charge for the entire stay.
All cancellations are subject to these cancellation conditions.
Cancellations due to force majeure must be substantiated through official channels and can be made up to 48 hours before your arrival.
CANCELLATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS BY LIVING4MALAGA.COM
If an accommodation cannot be occupied due to a double booking (overbooking) or due to unforeseen and non-attributable circumstances to LIVING4MALAGA.com, we will contact the customer as soon as possible and try to provide an alternative, offering another accommodation of equal or superior characteristics. If this option is not possible or you do not accept the change or modification, the reservation will be canceled, and you will be immediately reimbursed for the entire amount paid. No subsequent claims or complaints will be admissible in these cases.
COMPLAINTS OR GRIEVANCES
Any complaint or grievance must be reported immediately to LIVING4MALAGA.com in order to resolve the issue. If the complaint can be clearly attributed to LIVING4MALAGA.com, we commit to finding satisfactory solutions for the customers.
LIVING4MALAGA.com will not be responsible in any case for events beyond the company’s control or resulting from force majeure or unforeseen circumstances, such as noise from nearby accommodations, noise caused by construction near the reserved property, general supply cuts unrelated to the property, elevator malfunction in the building, etc. Complaints or claims will not be accepted once the check-out has been completed, and therefore, any right to compensation or resolution will be forfeited.
EQUIPMENT/SUPPLIES/CLEANING
The normal costs of electricity, gas, and water incurred during your stay are included in the rental price. Accommodations are cleaned before each guest’s arrival and will be provided with a set of sheets and towels per person. We perform a change of the sheet and towel set if your stay is 8 days or longer. On the day of departure, you should leave the property in acceptable conditions of order and cleanliness (dispose of trash in the outdoor containers and clean the dishes and utensils in the kitchen). LIVING4MALAGA.com reserves the right to claim or not refund the security deposit if the apartment is not found in such conditions. Costs incurred by leaving the keys in the lock on the inside of the accommodation will always be the responsibility of the tenant.

It is not permitted to use the apartments for party celebrations (whether spontaneous parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, etc.). Under no circumstances are you allowed to occupy the apartment with more people than its maximum capacity (except babies under 2 years old). You also commit to following the usage and maintenance instructions provided by the company and to comply with regulations regarding noise, garbage disposal, normal electricity and water consumption, etc. In the event of any breach of the aforementioned obligations, living4malaga.com has the right to request that you vacate the apartment, and you will not be entitled to any form of financial compensation.
