Between every guest, weekly, or a deep clean each season? The right cleaning schedule for a Marbella villa depends on how it's used. Here's a simple guide.

A villa on the Costa del Sol works hard — sun, pool, sand and guests all take their toll. How often you should clean it depends mostly on one thing: how the property is used.
If you let your villa to guests, it needs a full changeover clean between every booking — fresh linen and towels, a thorough clean and a guest-ready finish. This protects your reviews and keeps bookings coming. Add a periodic deep clean between busy runs.
For a second home you visit through the year, a regular clean (weekly or fortnightly) keeps dust, pool debris and the Mediterranean climate at bay, with a full deep clean at the start and end of the season. Ongoing housekeeping keeps everything running between visits.
The two moments that matter most: a pre-arrival clean so the villa is fresh, aired and spotless when you or your guests walk in, and a post-departure clean to reset it afterwards. Both are part of good property management.
Rented villa → clean between every guest. Lived-in second home → weekly or fortnightly, plus seasonal deep cleans. Empty much of the year → a regular check and clean, and always a clean before arrival. Not sure what your villa needs? Tell us how you use it and we'll suggest a simple schedule.
