2. Subject
The purpose of this website is the arrangement of temporary stays under a seasonal rental agreement (arrendamiento de temporada), for use other than as a permanent residence. The house is let in its entirety for the temporary, private occupation of its tenants, without the provision of services proper to hotel or lodging establishments. The maximum authorised capacity is 6 occupants.
2 bis. Right of withdrawal
Pursuant to Article 103.l of Spanish Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007 (consolidated Consumer Protection Act), accommodation services for purposes other than housing are exempt from the 14-day right of withdrawal. Cancellation is governed entirely by clause 6 (Cancellation policy) below.
3. Booking process
Bookings follow a two-step request and approval process:
- You select dates and number of guests on the website.
- You provide your contact details and submit a booking request. No payment is taken at this step and the dates are not yet blocked.
- The owner reviews and accepts or declines your request, normally within a short time, and you receive the answer by email. A declined request carries no charge.
- If accepted, you receive a secure payment link (Stripe Checkout) by email to pay the 30% deposit. The link is valid for 24 hours; if it expires unpaid, the request lapses and the dates become available again.
- Once payment is confirmed, you receive a confirmation email. The booking is firm and the dates blocked.
- The remaining 70% balance is paid on arrival, at the property, by card (datáfono).
4. Prices and payment
Prices include applicable taxes. Payment is made as follows:
- A 30% deposit (señal) of the rental amount, paid online when the booking is confirmed.
- Payment of the remaining rental amount, made on arrival, at the property, by card (datáfono).
- A security deposit (fianza), of a minimum of €1,500 per week of stay, likewise paid on arrival by card (datáfono). The security deposit is not applied to the rental price: it is held as a guarantee and returned after departure, once the condition of the house has been checked, deducting any damages where applicable, which will be itemised in writing.
