It’s an absolute disgrace that people should still be illegally advertising unlicensed properties for holiday lets. Why do law abiding people have to pay €3,500 per sleeping place when these crooks pay nothing and take away business from legitimate hosts. My tourist license is costing me €42,400 - where’s the justice in that? The government should crack down very hard on these rogue landlords
