I wonder if anyone could give me advice on finding accommodation in Cartagena over the winter. The difficulty is that we are traveling with a cute (and very house-trained) dog and 2 cats. We're looking forward somewhere with a balcony or open space, and our budget is around €500 per month. Does anyone know of a suitable apartment for rent, or where's a good place to search for pet-friendly accommodation? Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hi you could try Idealista go on to the web site and put your requirement I had a quick look for you but with the pets it only showed 3 properties within your price range.

Never pay the asking price so for instance if you are looking at 500 euros a month I would personally put 600 and barter if I really liked it.

There are many companies offering long term rentals just type in "LONG TERM PROPERTIES TO RENT CARTAGENA MURCIA" and see what comes up, you may be surprised but don't forget when completing a search always to tick "Pets accepted"

Hope this helps.

Many thanks Ed. I really appreciate your advice, and will look at the Idealista properties. I may just book an AirBnB for a week or so first, and then look around for something more long-term. Within Cartagena, would there be any neighbourhoods that you would recommend as particularly attractive for an ex-pat / areas to avoid? Thanks again. David

Have you visited Cartagena? Its a big city with many sprawling barrios surrounding the centre…not really any expat areas. Have you thought maybe one of the surrounding areas..La Union, Los Nietos, El Algar etc…only ten minutes by car but without the feel of a city …might be easier to find a pet friendly place. Look at the local facebook pages or put up a post of your own asking for accommodation. Good luck..love your little dog..cavapoo??

Many thanks for your suggestions. I've never visited the city before; this is a new adventure for me. My dog (Chloe - a toy poodle) is looking forward to it too.
