The alleged victim, who was staying at the same hotel as the man in the popular Spanish resort, told police he was a stranger she had never met before.
A hotel receptionist alerted police who arrested the suspect shortly after arriving at the hotel.
Cops have now passed the case over to the Civil Guard.
It was not immediately clear if the suspect has already appeared in court and whether he has been released on bail.
