Answer

Is a written rental contract important for short-term housing in Mallorca?

Yes, a written agreement is one of the best protections a tenant can have in Mallorca, even for short stays. It helps clarify the rent, deposit, and basic conditions if there is a dispute later. Without it, proving what was agreed can become much more difficult.
