Answer

Is it legal to rent a garden hut as housing in Mallorca?

Not every structure on a plot can legally be rented as a home in Mallorca. A wooden hut may count as a structure, but that does not automatically make it suitable or lawful as living space. The rental also needs to comply with planning rules and the required housing documents.
