Los 10 mejores rentales vacacionales de A Coruña

If you are looking for vacation rentals in A Coruña, the first thing you should know is that the supply is divided between the city and the coast that surrounds it. Within the municipal area, the most in-demand zones are the center and the ensanche, where you have everything within walking distance: Plaza de María Pita, the Tower of Hercules, Riazor beach, or the port. Staying there allows you to get around without a car, but the price per night goes up, especially in summer. The alternative is the Los Mallos area or the Agra do Orzán neighborhood, which is more residential and somewhat cheaper, although you will have to walk a bit more to reach the points of interest. If what you are looking for is tranquility, the Monte Alto area or the seafront promenade towards Orzán gives you sea views and a more local atmosphere, with the drawback that the slopes are steep.

Outside the city, rentals are concentrated in municipalities such as Oleiros, Sada, or Arteixo, which are less than twenty minutes away by car. There you find houses with gardens or apartments near smaller and less crowded beaches, and the average price drops compared to the center. The main difference is that you need your own vehicle for everything, because public transportation, although it exists, does not have the frequency of the city. There are also options in the Costa da Morte area, but that is already another trip: more kilometers, more nature, and lower prices, in exchange for giving up urban life.

As for the price, the real range goes from 51 euros per night in the most basic accommodations to an average of 166. If you can, avoid July and August, which is when it rises the most. May, June, and September are the best months to find deals without giving up good weather. To get there, you have Alvedro airport, about twenty minutes from the center, and San Cristóbal train station, with connections from Madrid and other Galician cities. Once there, the urban bus network works well, but to get to the beaches on the outskirts, it is advisable to rent a car. Before booking, check if the accommodation includes heating or air conditioning, because the climate in A Coruña is humid and it is noticeable in winter, and check if the final price includes cleaning or taxes, which sometimes do not appear at first glance.
