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.

perfect apartment perfect location will be back again 👌

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!

Twomey's - Unique Victorian Townhouse with Seaview
Spent a few days in Winter at this beautiful house. Stunning kitchen and amazing views of the sea and ships in the harbour from the 2 sitting rooms and the bedrooms. Our host was super nice and helpful and the location is close enough to walk everywhere. Highly recommended

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.

Rennies Mill, Coastal retreat, Kinsale
Simon was a top notch host! His local recommendations of Ross Castle and Harmonie Sauna were 👌. The Mill exceeded our expectations! Following the path down to the ocean and seeing it for the first time will forever be a memory that brings me joy and a smile! We hope to come back someday!

Tom Mikeys House, Maharees, Castlegregory
This place is perfect for a group of 6 people. Nora is very kind. The check-out time is also flexible if no guests coming over.

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

Spacious seaside family home in Monkstown, Cork
We stayed at Aoifes place for Christmas this year and she made it very special. There was a Christmas tree put up along with some Christmas decorations. Aoife had also provided a very generous and festive welcome package which we really appreciated. It was very special time for me and my family, made extra special by the house and all the help Aoife have given to us beforehand. Super Host for sure. Thank you Aoife.

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
This air BnB felt like our little sanctuary whilst we visited for a wedding at a nearby venue. The hosts were so lovely, they were always quick to respond and let us stay longer before we got our flight home which was very appreciated. The place itself is nice and clean. And the beds are so comfy! They also gave us a welcome pack with local produce which was a great touch and all very tasty food. I would deffo visit again

Fabulous place to stay, lots to see and do on the estate. We wished we had booked for longer and will definitely try and visit again.

Kingfisher Riverside Retreat
We highly recommend staying in this lovely home. It was a warm, comfortable and pampering environment with everything one might need. The fireplace is excellent and makes the space nice and cozy. The shower is luxurious and the bed is very comfortable. Nick is lovely and kind, very communicative and shared great local tips. The area is stunning. Nick was really generous and flexible with checkout time since it was possible that day. We will definitely come back and wish we could have stayed longer.

The apartment was lovely, clean & cozy with a lit fire waiting for us with a few treats thanks to Julie again 😊 Lovely location in quiet fishing village with a couple of minutes walk to local pubs. Would love to return again one day.

Beachfront apart 20 meters Blue flag Beach
Rory is a great host and his home is at a great location. Yok can listen to the sounds of the waves and the view is amazing. He made a lot of preparations before we arrive, even had lights and decorations for our little kid. Felt like we were home, away from home.
