Who would take action against someone in breach of these regulations, whose interpretation appears to be unclear and open to abuse in any case? Do you know if any "Authority" has taken action against someone in a residentail complex who has been "commercially" letting? My understanding is that there is no such case?
If you look at the rental property sites like Owners Direct and Holiday Lettings for example you will see many adverts from owners on "residential" complexes in Tenerife.
Perhaps the "Authorities" turn a blind eye as they would be reducing the number of visitors to Tenerife if they took action. The irony of course also is that the "Authorities" levy your annual tax under Form 210 Impuesto sobre la Renta de no Residentes partly on the grounds that you do receive a rental income even if you live in a residential complex. Or at least that is what my adviser told me. An element of hypocrisy here
