The Penthouse Apt at Harveys Dock
The apartment, was spacious, clean and tidy. The views from the balcony were stunning. Watching the sun rise and set over the Blackwater river was the perfect start and end to the day. Close to supermarkets and the main shopping and restaurants. Will definitely, return to this apartment in the future.

Apartment 7_Washington St West
Apartment was clean good size for 4 adults. Wish there were more seating in living room area. Bring your own toiletries. Location was perfect as everything is walkable. Paid parking is about 10min walk but quite expensive for overnight parking €41.

Panoramic Two-bedroom Penthouse
We had a lovely stay at the penthouse which has beautiful views of the sea from the balcony. The place was very clean and comfortable. Good location out of the city centre for visiting county Cork. We would highly recommend.

Seafinn lodge
Our stay at Seafinn Lodge was beyond wonderful. Shirley greeted us with a warm welcome, offering a walk up along her property among the sheep with stunning views of the surrounding Irish countryside and Bantry Bay. The apartment was super clean, spacious and bright. We really appreciated the coffee, tea and milk! It’s perfectly located on a quite lot a few minutes drive from Bantry with a Lidl store nearby. Shirley gave us a great recommendation for a pub in Bantry where we met a local man who knew of my husband’s family and helped guide us to where they may have lived. We love Ireland and Shirley and John confirmed just how special the Irish are. A highly recommended place to stay!

Lake House Retreat
Paul’s place is truly one of a kind! We had the most wonderful stay and cannot wait to return. The lake view is even better than the pictures show and the surroundings are simply stunning. The house itself has everything you need to feel at home and the beds are extremely comfortable. Paul couldn’t have been a better host and replied almost instantly to every message. We genuinely had the best stay. Highly recommend!

Lighthouse keepers; Home of the year finalist
Just a magical location! Can’t describe it in words!! Beautifully decorated. Everything was perfect! I can’t say enough..

Twomey's - Unique Victorian Townhouse with Seaview
We had a lovely stay! We were able to check in early and Rosarii met us at the house to give us a lay of the land. The pictures truly do not do the house justice. The rooms are spacious and the views are incredible!! It's a beautiful walk into the center of town, as well. I would definitely recommend this AirBnB and would rebook again in the future if I'm ever in Cobh!

Spacious House with Private Pier, Beara, Co. Cork
We fell in love with this house. It’s in a beautifully secluded spot with direct access to the water. We swam each morning and it was bliss. The layout of the house is great, with a large open plan kitchen, dining and living room and a gorgeous deck that gets the sun. The surrounding area is stunning. We particularly liked the Buddhist centre and vegetarian cafe, which is in a gorgeous spot with breathtaking views. Would love to go back and spend more time exploring.

2 Bed & 2 Bathroom House, 5 mins Walk from Beach
Our stay in Glenbeigh, at Driftwood House, could not have been lovelier. With the location on the Ring of Kerry, the view in all directions was breathtaking. Sheep-filled hills in front and an ocean view behind made for a beautiful, peaceful stay. Gretta and William were simply wonderful. They were not only friendly but so helpful in offering suggestions for our activities and driving routes during our stay. Their recommendations for food were perfect and delicious! On our final day, they provided us with helpful tips as we continued our travels to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway. Their bed and breakfast truly feels like home. It is clean, warm and cozy and allowed us to relax into each evening comfortably with a fire in the fireplace. Gretta’s morning scones are to die for and the perfect start to any day! Thank you for making our stay in Glenbeigh so memorable. We certainly hope to visit again! Jim, Connie, Mike & Debbie

Stunning family home by the sea, Monkstown, Cork
We had a great vacation in Aoife's beautiful home. We had plenty of room for our family. Stunning views and just a short walk to two restaurants. My grandson loved his room and ALL of the toys! Aoife was very responsive to any questions we had. I would highly recommend renting this home.

Inch View House, Cromane
House is dated, quirky, but charming. Fit our needs perfectly, and the price and location were absolutely perfect.

The Old School House Castlecove
Great place, good for money.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Cabin, Wood stove, Covered balcony, in the trees
Unusual location in semi wooded raised slightly away and above the owners home, can't see from the airbnb. Outside seating to two sides, plenty of space inside, well appointed and warm, we didn't need the wood burner. Very relaxing stay. Met both hosts and their lovely dog, very welcoming and helpful. Great allocated parking space, would highly recommend this home from home.

An Cuan Apartment Dunmore
What a beautiful place, and what a view! We definitely didn’t stay long enough and if they’ll have us back, we’d like to stay longer next time. Martin & Claire were fantastic hosts and made my family feel so welcome. I really appreciate all the efforts they went to for us and we really loved our stay. Looking forward to seeing you again next year! Many Thanks Again!

Neds Cottage by the Sea- Sandycove Castletownshend
Thank you for a great stay in your apartment. The location is perfect. Incredible views, beautiful location for shore trips. Definitely a great choice when you want a quiet vacation.

Waters Edge Retreat
The apart was absolutely wonderful with stunning views from every window. It was well furnished, comfortable and in an ideal location to reach the beach and/or town and quay. Secure car parking was a bonus. There are 3 flights of stairs to climb but I, with some mobility issues, found them manageable. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Our host, Joan, was absolutely wonderful - helpful, friendly and readily available if any help was required - a credit to the company. Thank you Joan.

Penthouse Apt Youghal, Sea Views (Carlton Wharf)
Well we have just stayed at Dairmuds penthouse apartment this week and I must say the apartment is brilliant 👏 very spacious and it has everything you need at hand the views are breathtaking and on arrival Diarmuid was very kind to help us up the stairs with our luggage he's a very friendly man and offered us help to settle in not to mention the cold beer and wine he left which was most appreciated I definitely recommend Dairmuds apartment to anyone planning on staying in Youghal

Kingfisher Riverside Retreat
What a beautiful location and excellent accommodation. We felt very at home as there was everything we could possibly need and all so very comfortable. An excellent base from which to explore the South West of Ireland. Our host Nick was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us lots of suggestions for places to see and all the best local restaurants and pubs. We would definitely stay here again and can recommend to anyone looking for peace and tranquility with the sound of birds and the flowing river at the bottom of the garden.

Lovely 2 bedroom apartment in Cobh.
What a gem of a place to stay in Cobh! Paddy's place was spotlessly clean and comfortable. I have never stayed in an Airbnb with so much delicious food, tea, coffee, sweet treats, bread, eggs, milk etc waiting for us on arrival! It was fantastic. Paddy was most welcoming and kind and gave us recommendations on things to do and places to visit in the area. We had a fab stay and will recommend to all our friends.
