Long-term stay in Valencia

Ruzafa
This trendy part of the city beautifully blends tradition with modernity, attracting long-time residents, families, tourists, and students alike—all within the same vibrant community. The heart of social and cultural activity pulses here, with a diverse array of dining options. Notable restaurants such as Ricard Camarena’s Canalla Bistro and Nozomi are just a few highlights among many. Additionally, you'll find numerous nightclubs, various types of pubs, and an exceptional density of bars per capita. If that puts a smile on your face, then Ruzafa is the perfect choice for you. The population in this area ranks among the highest in Valencia, rivaling other central neighborhoods. Its appeal can be attributed to its close proximity to the city center, convenient public transport links, and lively nightlife, all contributing to rising demand and property prices.

El Carmen
Your favorite, if you’re up for it! El Carmen is a vibrant and alternative neighborhood brimming with trendy bars and a lively cultural scene. It's a melting pot of students, artists, and the bohemian spirit. As one of the city's primary nightlife hubs, you'll find that the historic center's usual tranquility takes a backseat here. If you're keen to experience life in the city’s core and enjoy (or even partake in) the nightlife, then this neighborhood is perfect for you.

Patraix
According to the municipal barometer, this neighborhood ranks as the second best in Valencia. Residents appreciate its closeness to the city center, a variety of nearby services including numerous supermarkets, a large hospital, schools, and parks for children. It’s an ideal place for families, and with South Boulevard bordering the area, it's perfect for those who enjoy outdoor activities. Patraix is also known for its cultural diversity, featuring restaurants that offer a wide range of cuisines, including Spanish, Indian, Senegalese, and Ecuadorian, among others.


Penya-roja (Camins al Grau)
We selected this neighborhood due to its close location to the City of Arts and Sciences and the historic Turia riverbed. Over the past 20 years since the museum's opening, this area has experienced significant growth. It is now home to shopping centers like Aqua and El Saler, as well as El Corte Inglés on Avenida de Francia, alongside a diverse selection of restaurants and entertainment options. Soon, it will also be linked to Desembocadura Park.

Benimaclet
This neighborhood is a beloved spot for residents of Valencia. Originally a small village, it was incorporated into the city and has now become one of Valencia’s key districts. The nearly pedestrian streets offer a charming retreat, transporting you to a quieter time. Its closeness to universities makes it particularly appealing to students, while the affordable prices add to its allure. The trendy bars and pubs in the area contribute to a unique and lively atmosphere, enhancing the neighborhood's appeal.

El Cabanyal
One of the most iconic neighborhoods in the city has been recognized as one of the coolest in Europe by The Guardian. While certain parts may experience neglect, El Cabanyal-Canyamelar is steadily evolving and emerging as a focal point for both young locals and tourists in Valencia. Rental prices are increasing (no longer as affordable as they once were), and the neighborhood’s closeness to the beach and nightlife hotspots, like Playa Marina, along with the revival of restaurants and bars boasting stunning views, are revitalizing this historic coastal area.
