En este trabajo se realiza un estudio empírico de la oferta de alojamiento canalizado a través de la plataforma Airbnb en la ciudad de Málaga, dentro del contexto de la econo-mía colaborativa y de los retos que plantea su regulación en el ámbito de las principales ciudades españolas. Se presta especial atención a la concentración de este mercado, tanto desde el punto de vista de la actividad profesional como en el plano territorial.
Airbnb, as a p2p platform that facilitates short term rentals, has recently shown a significant impact in the city tourism accommodation sector. A growing academic literature is focused on several aspects of this disruptive new business model. However, only the biggest cities are usually included in the studies on this topic. The effects of the irruption of Airbnb in the city of Málaga, the sixth one in number of inhabitants in Spain, and the seventh in number of hotel bed places is still scarcely studied. This is the main motivation for the empirical study in this article.
