Book direct with Walnut Coast

The same homes you would find on the big platforms, without the layer in the middle taking a cut from both ends.

What the service fee actually costs you

On most listing platforms the guest pays a service fee on top of the nightly rate and the cleaning fee. It is charged for the booking software, not for anything about the home you are staying in.

Booking here removes that line entirely. The nightly rate is the same rate; the total is lower. On a week-long stay that difference is usually worth a couple of very good dinners on Palafox.

    Pay securely by card to hold the dates.

  4. 4

    Check-in details and a local guide arrive before arrival, from a person, not an automation.
