Overview and Location
Livensa Living Studios Valencia Marina Real is a purpose-built student accommodation located at 7, Poblados Marítimos, 46011 València, in the Marina Real area. The residence places residents roughly midway between the city centre and the coastline — a short walk to the beach and a bus or tram ride to the main university campuses. The latitude and longitude (39.4636, -0.3355) place it in the eastern maritime district, near the Port of Valencia and the marina.
For students who prioritise proximity to the sea over a central city address, this residence is a logical choice. The immediate neighbourhood is a mix of residential towers, port infrastructure, and leisure zones. Nightlife and dining options exist along the waterfront, but the area is quieter than the historic centre or the Blasco Ibáñez university belt.
The city of Valencia offers 38 student properties on the platform (indicative count as of July 2026), with entry-level prices starting from €256 per month. Livensa Living Studios Valencia Marina Real sits at the upper end of that range. The published monthly prices run from €692 to €1,210, with a €250 deposit required at booking.
Who This Residence Suits
Livensa Living Studios Valencia Marina Real is best suited for students who:
- Want to live near the beach. The location is walkable to the seafront. If spending afternoons on the sand or jogging along the promenade is a priority, this is one of the few student residences in Valencia with direct beach access.
- Prefer studio living. The property offers studios alongside shared rooms. For those who value private cooking and bathroom facilities, studio units give independence without needing to share common areas.
- Use on-site amenities. The residence lists a gym, laundry facility, and game room. Students who regularly use a gym could save the cost of an external membership. A game room provides a social outlet without leaving the building.
- Are comfortable with an active student community. The property houses mostly university students. If you enjoy meeting neighbours in hallways and common spaces, the social atmosphere can be an advantage.
Who Should Look Elsewhere
This property has clear drawbacks that may make it unsuitable for certain students.
- Sensitive to noise. One resident, Dion Arendtsz, wrote in a Google review: “A lot of university students live here and are quiet loud into the late hours of the night/morning. You can here from room, being loud in hallways etc. Used airpods every night.” The reviewer rated the experience 3 out of 5, noting that the location and concierge service were good, but noise from neighbours was a persistent issue.
- Concerned about pest control. A two-time reviewer, Vladislav Medvedev, gave a 1-star rating and said: “This was one of the most disturbing hotel stays I have ever experienced. The property is completely overrun with cockroaches. They were everywhere — in the bathroom, near the bed, crawling on the walls, and even inside personal belongings. Turning off the lights at night made it even worse.”
- Need flexibility in lease terms. No minimum lease length is listed in the available data, nor is a specific move-in date. Prospective residents should verify directly with the operator whether they require a full academic year or can offer shorter stays.
- Prefer quieter, more mature living. If you study best in a calm environment and cannot tolerate hallway noise or late-night gatherings, another residence with a stricter noise policy or a higher proportion of postgraduates may be a better fit.
What Residents Actually Say
The residence holds a Google rating of 4.1 stars based on 451 reviews — which indicates that the majority of guests and residents have had satisfactory stays. However, the three written reviews in the provided dataset offer a more mixed picture.
One 3-star review highlighted a trade-off: “Rooms not to bad, service from concierge was good. Location is very good if you want to be close to the beach. Only complaint is a lot of university students live here and are quiet loud into the late hours…” Noise, therefore, is a recurring theme, but it appears to depend on who your neighbours are during your stay.
The 1-star reviews from Vladislav Medvedev must be considered seriously. The first details a severe cockroach infestation. The second criticises the residence’s policies during a time of personal crisis, saying: “There is absolutely no sense of humanity or basic moral responsibility here… this hotel chose to hide behind rigid policies instead of showing even the sli…” — though the review is cut short, the sentiment is clear.
It is impossible to verify whether these complaints are dated or isolated. But they indicate that the property’s pest control and administrative flexibility have faced criticism. For a booking in 2026 or 2027, you should ask the operator directly about pest management protocols and any cancellation or modification policies before committing.
Price Positioning vs City From-Price
The lowest monthly rent for any student property in Valencia on this platform is €256. Livensa Living Studios Valencia Marina Real’s minimum of €692 is nearly three times that entry-level figure. Even the lower end of the range (€692) is above the average for shared rooms and studios in more central or less touristy districts.
The price difference can be explained by:
- Beach proximity – properties near the coast in Valencia command a premium.
- On-site facilities – a gym, game room, and laundry add operational costs.
- Full studio offering – the cheapest €256 units in the city are likely shared apartments or older buildings with fewer amenities.
That said, the maximum price of €1,210 is a significant amount for a single student. For comparison, you could rent a small private apartment in other parts of Valencia for less. The value proposition depends heavily on how much you are willing to pay for the combination of studio living and beach access.
All prices listed are indicative — confirm with the operator.
Room Type Guidance
Two unit types are available: shared rooms and studios.
- Shared room – likely a dorm-style setup with a roommate. This is the more budget-friendly option within the property, though no separate price breakdown is given. If you are outgoing and don’t mind sharing a living space, a shared room reduces costs while keeping access to the gym and game room.
- Studio – self-contained with a private kitchenette and bathroom. Studios suit students who prefer privacy and control over their schedule. The monthly range (€692–€1,210) probably reflects size, floor level, and view. Corner studios or those facing the sea may be at the higher end.
Because the deposit is a flat €250, regardless of room type, studios offer better deposit-to-rent proportionality. No details are available on whether all units are furnished; confirm with the operator.
Booking Timing
No move-in date is listed in the current data. For bookings targeting the academic year starting September 2026 or January 2027, it is wise to contact the residence early — at least six months before your intended arrival. Given the limited number of units (38 properties in the city, and this is one of them), desirable studios in a beach-adjacent building may fill up.
If you are flexible, ask about last-minute availability in August or February, when some students vacate mid-year. Because no minimum lease is specified, you may also negotiate a shorter stay if rooms are not fully booked.
FAQ
What are the main complaints from past residents?
Based on available reviews, the two most cited issues are noise and pest control. Multiple reviews mention loud students in hallways late at night. One review describes a severe cockroach problem. These are concerns you should raise directly with the residence manager before signing.
Is the price reasonable compared to other student housing in Valencia?
The property’s starting rent of €692 per month is well above the city-wide from-price of €256. However, it includes a beachside location, a gym, and studios. Whether it is “reasonable” depends on your budget: if you need the cheapest option, look elsewhere; if you value a studio with facilities and beach access, the price falls in the higher but not extreme range for similar premium properties in Valencia.
Are utilities included in the monthly rent?
The available data does not specify whether bills (electricity, water, internet) are included in the €692–€1,210 monthly rent. This is a common question. You must confirm with the operator whether utilities are part of the rent or charged separately, particularly for studios where electricity use can be higher.
