sans repas

une "self catering accomodation" correspond à un logement sans repas.
"self catering holidays" - "vacances autonomes" (selon le GDT).

Si ces logements sont offerts dans le cadre d'un complexe touristique avec possibilité de s'approvisionner, je direait tout simplement "restauration à la charge du client."

gîte
