Aunt Jose's: Beach & Fish, 500m to the beach
🛑 WE ARE NOT RAISING PRICES IN 2026 We don't agree with the price gouging and excessive inflation this summer. We are private individuals renting our only vacation home to pay bills, not to get rich off others' dreams. We believe in fair, quality exchanges based on values that benefit everyone. We keep our prices fair, but above all, we maintain our premium quality, personal service, and 100% dedication to our guests.
