Who we are

Family-run.
Hands-on. Honest.

Glaser Group is run by Maarten Glaser from an office in Arroyo de la Miel, Benalmádena. Dutch by birth, Costa del Sol by choice. Glaser Real Estate (the brokerage side) was founded in 2019; the rental management division — Glaser Holiday Homes SL — manages short-let, mid-stay and long-stay properties across the coast and inland Guadalhorce valley. GIPE and CEPI accredited via Glaser Real Estate.

Short-term rental and property management is our main business — Airbnb, Booking.com and VRBO listings, dynamic pricing, in-person guest support, and the full back-office. We do this for every Alhaurín el Grande owner who comes to us, across every neighbourhood and property type.

Every Alhaurín el Grande owner gets a senior member of our team as their direct contact, monthly statements with no surprises, and an honest opinion when something isn't working. Family-run, hands-on, and built around two things: short-term rental and property management.

"If we wouldn't recommend a property to a friend, we don't take it on."

One point of contact, always

Every Alhaurín el Grande owner gets a senior team member as their direct contact. Same voice at discovery, same voice on the December owner-statement query. That's the model we run, deliberately.

Monthly statements, owner's view

Itemised monthly statement for every Alhaurín el Grande property — short-term rental income, cleaning and turnover costs, platform commission and management fee all shown separately. Year-end summary in January for the Spanish tax year.

We handle the Alhaurín el Grande paperwork

Junta de Andalucía VUT through the Málaga delegation, NRUA registration under Royal Decree 1312/2024, N2 annual filing, SES.HOSPEDAJES guest registration. Every short-term rental needs all of it — we handle the whole stack.

Multilingual guest service

Dutch, English, Spanish, German across the team. Multi-language coverage matters across the booking, the move-in and the stay — every Airbnb, Booking.com or VRBO message goes to a real human reachable around the clock.

A good fit, both ways

We open for owners who want one hands-on manager handling short-term rental and the full property management stack. We say no when the fit isn't right — with the reason given.

What we do

Full-service rental management.
No surprises.

From the first photo to the last guest check-out. Everything you'd expect — and the regulatory work most managers charge extra for.

How it works

From first call to first guest —
typically 10–14 days.

No pressure, no commitment until you're ready. We walk the property, run the numbers, explain what we'd do, and only then does a contract exist.

01
Day 0
Discovery call
Thirty minutes on the phone or in person. We talk through the property, your goals, and where short-term rental fits — whether that's full-year Airbnb, summer-only, or a hybrid with longer stays in the quieter months.
02
Day 2–5
Walkthrough & photography
Walkthrough at the property — anywhere in Alhaurín el Grande. Inventory, safety check, professional photography. Any paperwork checks (DAFO, comunidad status, water rights) run in parallel where applicable.
03
Day 5–10
Licence & listings
Junta de Andalucía VUT verified or applied for. NRUA filed. Where rural-finca or comunidad-status work needs to close first, we close that conversation before listings go live. Alhaurín el Grande launches are deliberate, not rushed.
04
Day 10–14
First booking
First Alhaurín el Grande guests arrive. Discreet in-person check-in. Multilingual guest support running through the stay. Monthly statement begins — the property's rhythm visible from week one.

José is very welcoming, responsive and available. The accommodation is located in a very quiet residence, away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre and it is very pleasant. A car is required. I recommend it without hesitating.

Everything in the apartment was new and clean. There was everything you needed. The apartment was really cosy and comfortable, with great views outside. Communication with the accommodation was really smooth and they wanted to make sure we really enjoyed ourselves and had everything we needed. A lovely peaceful location. A very successful holiday.

The VUT & NRUA rules, simplified

Every holiday rental on the Costa del Sol needs two licences: the Andalucian VUT (Vivienda con Fines Turísticos) and the national NRUA number (Royal Decree 1312/2024, mandatory from July 2025).

Both the VUT and the NRUA must be registered in the name of the rental management company, not the individual owner — which means the compliance responsibility sits with us, not you. Straightforward applications can be processed in as little as a day.

If you already hold a valid VUT licence, it keeps its status under the old rules — no community vote needed. Only new applications in community buildings require a 3/5 majority vote under the April 2025 LPH amendment. Existing licences from before that date are grandfathered.

In Alhaurín el Grande specifically: the municipality is not affected by the Málaga moratorium. We file every N2 declaration in person at the Málaga Junta delegation each February as part of the standard annual cycle.

From our Alhaurín el Grande team

What we do, every day.

Short-term rental and property management isn't a single task — it's a stack of small, repeated operations that have to land right every time. A few specifics our team works with day-to-day:

Listings & bookings

Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO and direct-booking channel kept in sync. Daily price review through PriceLabs, calendar conflicts caught before they happen, every booking confirmed within minutes.

Guest support

In-person check-in for every arrival. 24/7 multilingual support in Dutch, English, Spanish and German across the full stay. Local handover, not a lockbox.

Cleaning & maintenance

Vetted cleaning and linen teams on every turnover. Maintenance issues caught at handover. Hotel-grade preparation across every property type we manage in Alhaurín el Grande.

Licensing & compliance

VUT through the Junta de Andalucía, NRUA under Royal Decree 1312/2024, SES.HOSPEDAJES guest registration, and the annual N2 declaration each February. The full back-office for every short-term rental.

Glaser offers several Alhaurín el Grande management packages — each pairs a commitment length with a different balance of flexibility and service depth. We walk you through the options at the discovery call so the package matches your property and how you want to use it.

Yes — owner-use blocks are standard. We block owner-use windows before listings go live so guest bookings never collide with your reserved periods. Reasonable owner usage is built into every Glaser management agreement.

Everything from the listing to the lockbox: multi-portal distribution on Airbnb, Booking.com and VRBO, dynamic pricing through PriceLabs, professional photography, in-person guest check-in, 24/7 multilingual support, cleaning and linen, maintenance coordination, monthly itemised statements, and the full regulatory stack — VUT licensing, NRUA registration, SES.HOSPEDAJES guest filing, and the annual N2 declaration. One team, end-to-end.

At the discovery call we share what comparables exist. We're explicit about which figures come from our operational data and which are directional. We don't fabricate numbers — if we don't have specifics for your property type, we say so.

Glaser Group manages short-term rentals across the Costa del Sol — Benalmádena, Fuengirola, Mijas, Marbella, Málaga, Torremolinos, Estepona — plus the inland Guadalhorce valley (Coín, Alhaurín el Grande, Alhaurín de la Torre). If your property is in any of those, we'll route you to the right Glaser team.

Airbnb, Booking.com and VRBO for short-term rentals, plus our own direct-booking channel. Every Alhaurín el Grande property is published to all major channels with synced calendars, optimised photography, and pricing tuned daily through PriceLabs.

There is no wrong time to start. Summer is the peak booking season on Airbnb and Booking.com, so onboarding in spring captures the high-revenue months. Onboarding in autumn or winter gives time to set up the listing, photography and licensing properly before peak demand. Either way, plan on 10-14 days from first call to first guest.

The Junta de Andalucía declaración responsable typically processes in 1-5 working days for straightforward cases. The same Andalusian regional process under Decreto 31/2024 applies in Alhaurín el Grande. We handle the filing as part of onboarding.

Alhaurín el Grande operates under the standard Junta de Andalucía VUT regime — not affected by the Málaga moratorium. For apartments inside a community of owners, the 3/5 rule under RDL 7/2019 applies as it does elsewhere in Spain. We check the comunidad position at onboarding so there are no surprises after a licence is issued.

Yes — every short-term rental property in Spain must be registered in the NRUA (Número de Registro Único de Alquiler), the national rental register created by Royal Decree 1312/2024. Registration has been mandatory since July 2025. Without an NRUA number, Airbnb, Booking.com and other platforms now block listings. We handle the NRUA registration alongside your VUT licence at onboarding — it's part of the management package, not charged separately.

Owner statements are issued in the first week of each month for the previous month's reservations. Each statement breaks out platform commission, cleaning, maintenance, and our management fee separately so you can see exactly where the gross income goes. Bank transfers go out the same day the statement is issued. Year-end summaries are prepared every January for the Spanish tax year and sent to your gestor or accountant on request.

Yes — every guest stay in a VUT property must be registered with the Guardia Civil under the SES.HOSPEDAJES system within 24 hours of arrival. We handle this for every Glaser-managed property. Failure to register guests is one of the most common causes of municipal fines for self-managed properties.

Every property type — apartments, townhouses, villas, fincas — anywhere in Alhaurín el Grande. Short-term rental and property management is our main business, and we calibrate the listing, pricing and operations to whatever property you have.

Yes — every VUT property is required to file the Modelo N2 declaration with the Junta de Andalucía each February for the previous year. We prepare the filing alongside your monthly statements through the year, so the data is ready when February comes. For non-Spanish-resident owners, we also flag the Modelo 210 quarterly non-resident income tax requirement and route you to a Spanish gestor if you don't already have one.

Short-term rental and property management is our main business — Airbnb, Booking.com and VRBO listings, dynamic pricing, multilingual guest support, the full licensing and tax back-office. Family-run since 2018, GIPE and CEPI accredited via Glaser Real Estate, operating across the whole Costa del Sol from a single office in Arroyo de la Miel.
