Livensa Living Granada Fuentenueva – A Decision Review
Livensa Living Granada Fuentenueva is a purpose-built student residence located at 200 Beiro, 18003 Granada, Spain. It offers studio apartments only, with monthly rents ranging from €701 to €1,061 (indicative — confirm with the operator). The property is available from 15 August 2026, with a minimum lease of five months. It sits within a city that has four other similar student housing options, and the cheapest listing in Granada starts from €399 per month. With a Google rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 165 reviews, this residence has drawn positive attention, particularly for its staff and facilities. This review examines who the residence suits, what residents actually say, how its pricing compares to the local market, and what to keep in mind when booking.
Who This Residence Suits – And Who Should Look Elsewhere
Suits:
- Students who prioritise a secure, all-in-one living environment with on-site recreation areas. The residence has a swimming pool, laundry facility, and game room, making it suitable for those who want social and leisure spaces without leaving the building.
- Individuals or postgraduate students who prefer a studio over shared apartments. All units are studios, giving complete privacy and independence. The furniture is described as tailored to student needs, with tilt-and-turn windows for security.
- Students enrolled at the University of Granada, located nearby. The address is in the Beiro district, a short commute to campus.
- Those who can commit to at least five months of stay, which covers a typical semester or academic year.
- Residents who value personal service: multiple reviews highlight friendly, professional staff, particularly at reception.
Does not suit:
- Budget-conscious students looking for the cheapest option in Granada. The minimum price of €701 is well above the city’s lowest listing of €399. If cost is the primary factor, other shared apartments or cheaper residences may be more appropriate.
- Groups of friends wanting to share a flat. The property has no multi-bedroom units, only studios, so co-living arrangements are not possible.
- Students seeking a short-term stay under five months. The minimum lease of five months is firm; any shorter period would likely not be accommodated.
- Anyone who prefers a location closer to the historic centre or nightlife. The Beiro area is more residential and quieter than the city centre.
What Residents Actually Say (Quoted Reviews)
The three reviews provided offer a clear picture of the experience:
“The staff were lovely the room was clean and neat.” – Docile Shiba (5/5)
This concise review reinforces the cleanliness and friendliness of the team. It is a common theme across the feedback.
“We visited the residence and loved everything. What we appreciated most was the manager’s detailed and professional explanation. She made us enjoy every moment of our visit. A student atmosphere, plenty of recreation and study areas. Secure rooms with tilt-and-turn windows, and furniture tailored to our needs…” – Marivi MF (5/5)
This review emphasises the thorough welcome from management, the abundance of common spaces (recreation and study areas), and the security features. The phrase “student atmosphere” suggests a vibrant community.
“A wonderful residence in every way. I especially want to highlight Ana’s friendliness, warmth, and professionalism at reception. It was a pleasure dealing with her.” – arancha puente (5/5)
Again, staff friendliness is a standout. Ana at reception is named positively, indicating consistent service quality.
All reviews are 5-star. While there is no negative feedback in the provided data, the lack of any critical comments could be a selection bias. Still, the overall Google rating of 4.8 from 165 reviews suggests satisfaction is high. Prospective residents can expect clean rooms, helpful staff, and good facilities.
Price Positioning vs the City’s From-Price
Granada is one of the more affordable student cities in Spain. The lowest available student housing listing in the city is €399 per month. Livensa Living Granada Fuentenueva’s studio prices start at €701 per month, which is roughly 75% higher than the cheapest option.
Why the premium? The residence offers a studio layout (private kitchen and bathroom), a swimming pool, laundry facilities, a game room, and a dedicated management team. In contrast, a €399 listing is likely a shared apartment or a basic en-suite room in a larger complex. For a student who values privacy and amenities, the extra cost may be justified. However, if the goal is to minimise monthly expenditure, this residence will not be the most economical choice.
It is also worth noting that €701 is the minimum price for a studio; the maximum goes up to €1,061. The variation may depend on floor level, size, or view. Always confirm the exact rate for the preferred unit with the operator before committing. The deposit is a fixed €100, which is relatively low compared to some Spanish student housing that asks for one or two months’ rent.
Room-Type Guidance and Booking Timing
Room types: Only studios are available. Each studio includes a private bathroom, a kitchenette or fully equipped kitchen, and a bed. Furniture is described as tailored to student needs. The tilt-and-turn windows provide both ventilation and security.
Booking timing: The earliest move-in date is 15 August 2026. Given that the residence has a small number of units (the city has only five student housing properties in total), studios may fill up quickly for the September 2026 academic year intake. If you are a student at the University of Granada, consider booking at least two to three months in advance, ideally by June 2026, to secure a spot. However, exact availability should be checked with real-time tools.
Lease length: Minimum five months. This covers most university terms. If you only need accommodation for four months, this residence is not suitable.
Deposit: €100, which is refundable subject to the terms of the contract.
