Back to newsA new study warns that the rapid growth in flight arrivals to popular European destinations is driving up rental costs significantly. Greece, Portugal, and Spain are highlighted as the most affected countries. In Crete specifically, housing pressure is intensifying as tourist numbers continue to climb, with rents projected to rise by up to 220 euros per month by 2031. For visitors planning stays in Crete, this trend is already translating into higher accommodation prices, particularly in coastal and high-demand areas. Booking early and considering inland villages or lesser-known towns can help offset rising costs. The study underlines a broader pattern across Mediterranean destinations where tourism growth is outpacing local housing supply, reshaping both the rental market and the visitor experience.
