The Studio On The Square
The apartment was a great stay. The place was clean, comfortable and exactly as described. Would definitely stay again.

Beautifully designed apartment for 2 Westport Quay
Thanks Rachel and Ciaran for hosting us for the weekend. It’s a stylish apartment and very clean, tidy, warm in great location for Westport town, Westport house and surrounding amenities. Rachel was very proactive in accommodating us and coming back to any queries. We’d highly recommend it for anyone on break in Westport!

Galway city centre fabulous 2 bedroom apartment
Wonderful place, with a wonderful view. Location was excellent adjacent to shopping and prime downtown. Clean with few complications.

Spectacular apartment in Clifden, Connemara
By far our favorite host. Elizabeth went over and beyond for us. So helpful when we were in a bind. We loved the place, very clean and tidy. We had a wonderful stay at her home everything was within walking distance. Park your car right in front of the apartment and walk to the town. She also did a great job recommending places. Highly recommend

The Amazing Panoramic Penthouse- Free Parking-
Great two bedroom in Galway. I will definitely stay here again. Host was really responsive and left us with great local recommendations. I would say five stars all the way.

Anchorage Apartment with Quayside view
Linda was a fantastic host, the apartment was large and homely. Excellent location with beautiful views. We would love to return again.

Roslea Lodge, Luxury farm stay with stunning views
Had a fantastic time staying at Roslea Lodge. Super clean and the house is lovely. View from the balcony and garden is amazing too. very welcoming and friendly hosts. Would definitely stay again. Thanks again 😁

Big Lovely House with Perfect City Centre Location
This was a charming house steps away from the Latin Quarter. Just what we were looking for. The beds were comfortable and the dinning area and living room were perfect for our group size (6). We even had luck getting parking right in front of the house.

The Old Bakery
We loved staying in The Bakery. The Photos don’t do it justice. Spacious and pristine. Maeve was very quick to respond to any queries we had. She had also left Lindor chocolates, biscuits and fresh flowers for us which was just lovely. Roundstone is so picturesque, with a couple of lovely pubs and the walk on the nearby beaches on Christmas Day morning was just stunning. Would highly recommend staying here.

Spectacular ocean views minutes to Cliffs of Moher
Beautiful house in the water. Very new and clean.

Galway Bay Wellness 2BR House on the Seashore
This was a wonderful private place to stay in. It was close to Galway and had a lot of local amenities within 10 minutes.

Spiddal, near Galway. On the Wild Atlantic Way.
We absolutely loved being able to call this place home during our visit to Ireland. Sheila and Redmond were very responsive and friendly in making sure we had everything we needed and more. The location was beautiful and conveniently walkable to the pier, shops and pubs. Our girls especially loved the little playroom - perfect for our family trip!! We’ll definitely be back!

Cong Holiday Let
We had a lovely stay beautiful setting by the river .The house was warm and cosy on arrival . Hugh was there to meet us with instructions on heating and Anne had left us beautiful homemade brown bread which went down very well with a cuppa after our long journey . It’s only a couple of minutes walking distance from the picturesque Cong village

Relax in our tranquil seaside village haven
Lovely house in a very quiet location. House - very, very well equipped for a holiday rental. Lots of extra stuff (kitchen stuff, board games etc.) over and above a normal rental. Plenty of new fluffy towels, soaps, cleaning products and equipment, herbs, spices, basic condiments, tea and coffee ++++++ many other extras. Bedrooms are all downstairs but the second bathroom is upstairs. This is the only accessible room upstairs as the owners were locked. Property has plenty of parking and a big area for ball games, even a basketball and net! I found the main bed very firm and not that comfy, but that could be me! Lovely views out over the beach to the Atlantic. Quilty is very very quiet, especially in October. Just a pub, will equipped but expensive shop and the beach. Everywhere is a drive away. Cliffs of Moher, Doonbeg, Lahinch all within driving distance and worth a visit. Overall I’d highly recommend Geraldine’s house with the caveat that the immediate area is quiet!
Waterfront condo accommodation

Seaview modern apartment
Clean, good value, nice view.

The Quay Westport Ireland 2 bedroom
Christines place was amazing. The view was fantastic and the location was great- close to lots of restaurants. It was loosely walkable into Westport city Centre but up very steep hill. The only other issue we had was one of the doors was hard to open/close in the bedrooms. Other than that the place was stunning and we had a great time!

2 bed Holiday home 150 Mtrs from Cappa pier.
We loved staying at the Cappa Home! It was so cozy. The location is perfect and easy to walk right to the pier, and seaside walks. The view from the living room is just as pictured and we even saw a rainbow one morning. It is peaceful and quiet at the house. You can easily walk to town in about 10 minutes. The town is very cute with several coffee shops and restaurants. Martin the host is super friendly and even left us some delicious goodies which was so thoughtful! We loved it! We just wished we could have stayed longer. We would definitely stay again.

Cosy 2 Bedroom Apartment in Galway City Centre
Location, location, location! The space is a bit out dated but it was perfect for four adults in the heart of Galway. Fruit, milk, and juice on arrival was a lovely touch. Excellent communication, comfy beds, coffee, and great travel tips helped make our stay so nice.

Exclusive Luxury Seafront 2 Bedroom Apartment
Apartment was beautiful, very spacious and the place was spotless. Handy access to the town centre. Bed was very comfortable also. over all a lovely experience would definitely recommend and come back in the future:)

Bayview Penthouse in Salthill
The Lane's condo was beautiful, and exactly as the pictures show. It was perfect for our family to use while in Salt Hill and Galway. The Lane was responsive when we had questions about features of the home, and very easy to communicate with.

Luxury 2 bedroomed Killaloe apartment
Excellent location in the town of Killaloe. Accomodations were wonderful with amazing views.

Newly refurbished apartment by the lake
Stayed here for 3 nights with 3 other people. Loved the place, amazing views and beautiful surroundings. Olivia was always responsive to my messages as well. I would definitely stay there again if I am in the area 😊
