Marbella has some of the strongest demand for live-out housekeepers on the whole Costa del Sol.Across the villas of Sierra Blanca and La Zagaleta, the penthouses of Puerto Banús and the family urbanisations of Nueva Andalucía, international families, seasonal residents and second-home owners all need their home kept immaculate every day without staff living in.
A live-out housekeeper comes to the home on the agreed schedule — full time or part time — and handles the cleaning and upkeep, ironing and laundry, daily cooking and household organisation, then leaves at the end of the day. It is the preferred choice when guest space is tight, when the home is used seasonally, or when you want daily support without a staff bedroom.
At Maids & Co we screen every candidate with in-depth interviews, references checked directly with previous employers and document verification, with the discretion Marbella homes expect. You pay nothing until you hire, the service includes 2 trial days with the candidate before you confirm the hire, and you receive your first profiles in under 3 hours. You also have a 6-month guarantee with free replacement.
The most requested live-out role in apartments and seasonal homes
In Marbella, a live-out housekeeper is the ideal fit when you would rather not give up a staff bedroom or only live here part of the year: the same hours and the same person each day, with a written contract and Social Security registration from the very first hour.
A live-out housekeeper's salary in Marbella usually exceeds the national average given the standards and discretion expected; it is always at or above the 2026 SMI and registered for Social Security from the first hour.
Demand for live-out housekeepers in Marbella centres on the premium residential areas: villas in Sierra Blanca, Nagüeles and along the Golden Mile, family urbanisations in Nueva Andalucía and Guadalmina, penthouses in Puerto Banús and homes in Los Monteros.Every household has different needs — languages, experience in high-end homes, flexible hours — so we tailor each search to the property.
We also cover the gated estate of La Zagaleta and the rest of Benahavís, reaching as far as Sotogrande and Estepona. In an international market like Marbella's, we prioritise multilingual candidates (Spanish and English) used to demanding families and to working with complete discretion.
How much does a live-out housekeeper cost in Marbella?
Full time (40 h), expect roughly €1,500–€2,200 gross per month in Marbella — above the legal minimum given the standards of the area. The 2026 SMI sets the floor at €1,424.50 over 12 payments (€1,221 over 14) or €9.55/hour, while by the hour €14–€18/hour is typical. Social Security contributions, compulsory from the first hour, are added on top.
Which areas of Marbella do you cover?
Puerto Banús, Sierra Blanca, Nueva Andalucía, the Golden Mile, Guadalmina, Los Monteros, Nagüeles, La Zagaleta and Benahavís, plus Sotogrande, San Pedro, Estepona and the rest of the Costa del Sol.
Why choose a live-out housekeeper rather than a live-in one in Marbella?
A live-out housekeeper comes each day on the agreed schedule and leaves when she is finished, with no need for a staff bedroom. It is the best fit for Puerto Banús apartments, seasonal homes or families who prefer daily help without housing staff. If you need round-the-clock cover, we will point you towards a live-in role instead.
Do you work with international families and seasonal homes in Marbella?
Yes — that is our main client profile here. We select multilingual live-out housekeepers (Spanish and English) with experience in high-end homes and verified references, and we can have the selection ready in advance so service is in place when you arrive, with Social Security registration from day one.
