    There is no right or wrong time to book, although if you are travelling at peak times, we suggest that you book as early as possible so as to ensure availability. Additionally, we work with some hotels that offer early booking discounts which we would be happy to pass on to you. Some of the accommodations we propose are boutique hotels, guest houses or rural tourism units, which due to their nature do not have many rooms. They are very comfortable, with great charm that therefore, do not have the capacity of a large hotel.
