Home insurance for expats in Girona, Spain

Looking for home insurance in Girona? We arrange buildings, contents and combined home insurance for expats and foreign owners across Girona and Catalonia — villas, apartments and holiday homes alike — and explain every policy in plain English.

English-speaking home insurance in Girona

Girona is the handsome inland Catalan city of the famous old quarter and Onyar riverfront, a growing draw for residents who want culture and the Pyrenees within reach but the coast only half an hour away.

Why home insurance matters in Girona

A river city with historic stone buildings means flood awareness along the Onyar, careful valuation of older construction, and inland winter cold towards the Pyrenees.

Property in Girona

Apartments in the old and new town, restored stone houses, and rural masías (farmhouses) in the surrounding countryside.

Cover options for properties in Girona

Whatever you own in Girona, we can arrange cover in English:

Setting the right sums insured in Girona

The two figures that matter most are the buildings sum insured (what it would cost to rebuild your Girona property from scratch, not its market value) and the contents sum insured (the cost to replace your belongings). Under-insuring either can lead to a proportionally reduced payout at claim time, so we help you set both correctly for the local rebuild costs and your home — see buildings & contents insurance.

Holiday homes and non-resident owners in Girona

Many properties in Girona are holiday or second homes owned from abroad. We arrange cover that continues while the property is empty, and handle everything in English — see holiday home insurance and non-resident home insurance.

Renting out a property in Girona?

If you let your Girona property long-term or to holidaymakers, ask about landlord and holiday-rental cover — a standard owner policy may not respond to tenant or guest risks.

Making a claim on a Girona home

If something happens, report it to us as early as you can, take steps to prevent further damage and keep photographs and receipts. We manage the claim with the insurer in English so you are not negotiating a Spanish process alone. Extraordinary events — major floods, earthquakes, severe storms officially declared — are compensated separately by Spain's Consorcio de Compensación de Seguros, funded by a small surcharge already included in your premium.

Girona FAQs

Home insurance in Girona — your questions

Can you insure a restored stone farmhouse (masía) near Girona?

Yes — traditional construction is valued to reflect rebuild cost, which we help you set correctly.

Is flood risk a concern in Girona?

The Onyar has flooded historically; water and flood awareness matter, and extraordinary floods fall to the Consorcio.

Can I arrange home insurance in Girona in English?

Yes. We arrange everything in plain English — the quote, the policy documents and any claim — so nothing is lost in translation, even though the policy itself is a Spanish contract. You deal with English-speaking advisers throughout.

How much does home insurance cost in Girona?

The premium depends mainly on your rebuild (buildings) value, the contents sum insured, the property type and the location and occupancy of the home. We give you a tailored figure for your Girona property rather than a one-size-fits-all price — any figures shown are indicative only.

Do I legally need home insurance in Girona?

Home insurance is only legally required if you have a Spanish mortgage, where the lender requires buildings cover for the life of the loan. Otherwise it is strongly recommended but optional — most owners still insure contents and personal liability.

Can you insure a holiday home or non-resident-owned property in Girona?

Yes. We arrange cover for second homes and properties owned from abroad, including the periods when the home is left empty. See holiday home and non-resident home insurance.
