Suas Thuas (Up Above), Dogs Bay beach. Errisbeg.
It was exactly what we needed - a peaceful haven in the most beautiful of surroundings. Catherine was helpful from beginning to end, and she was both friendly and kind. The cottage was simply lovely and extremely well-presented. The view from it is nothing short of spectacular. We would not hesitate to book Catherine's cottage again the next time we are in Connemara!

Cottage 101 - Moyard
A unique coastal property where we enjoyed experiencing the wild landscape of west Ireland

Seaview modern apartment
Super stay at Mary's. Great views and in walking distance of all amenities in Salthill. Apartment has everything a family needs for a break away and was spotless.

Wild Atlantic Cottage - Connemara Seaview Idyllic setting, amazing views
We had a wonderful stay in this absolutely gorgeous cottage! It was really spacious, clean and had everything we needed, and the fire was a real plus! The area was beautiful, peaceful and private and just a short walk to a lovely beach. Couldn't recommend this place more and we hope to come stay again in future. Thanks Rebecca!

Austin's Cottage, Ballyconneely
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. Lovely views and so peaceful. House was perfect for us - clean and well equipped. The area is so beautiful, with great walks and beaches nearby. Excellent food at Sweet Nothings and at local pubs. Michael was extremely friendly and helpful. Hope to be back.

Seaside hideaway, Burren views
was a lovely location, sea down the road, village had food, friendly cafes and fun stuff to do. fireplace wasn't working but the landlord told us in advance and the heating was perfectly warm for the weather we had. couldn't have been more helpful and communication was excellent.

Cosy cottage close to the sea and village.
Ed was a most gracious host. Offered recommendations in the area and very quick to respond to any questions. Would love to visit again someday

Swimmers Rest 200m from the Beach in Salthill
We really enjoyed the location and being able to walk to the beach as well as coffee shops/restaurants. The place was lovely and nice inside. Our internet wasn't working and wasn't able to be fixed in time for us before we left. All in all a great spot and would stay again.

Atlantic Whisper
We spent 2 nights at Susan's during our stay in Ireland, everything went very well, the accommodation is functional, clean and in a good location for discovering the region and especially with a magnificent view!

Stunning Cottage on the Waters Edge
Had a fantastic stay here. The cottage and the area were absolutely lovely and J was so helpful when we’re checking in- he recommended some wonderful hikes and places to eat!

Artistic Cottage Retreat Connemara - An Muileann
Such a lovely cottage and beautiful location. Everything was perfect during our stay. Micheál was a wonderful host, very friendly, responsive and accommodating. Would definitely recommend!

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!

Waters Edge
Water’s Edge is a very spacious comfortable house within easy reach (by car) of Roundstone, Ballyconneely and Clifden. Its setting on the water is incredible with the sunset views particularly memorable. We were a family group of three generations and there was room for everyone to eat together but also space to chill! We would love to visit this house again.

Cosy apartment in The Burren, Co Clare. Sleeps 2
We felt very comfortable in Róisín's tastefully furnished apartment and had a wonderful vacation. The apartment is in a rural quiet location and has a short distance to the beach. It is perfect for excursions in the area of the Burren National Park and other spectacular points on the coast, especially recommended for hikers (a car is necessary). Our host was always there to help and had many good tips in stock. Many thanks, Beate and Ulrich

Sruthán Pier House
Barbara was a great host. The house was perfect come rain or shine. The Spar shop in Carraroe is only 5 minutes away and was as good as any medium sized supermarket with great choice. Don’t miss the Realt pub if you want a good pint of Guinness

Bayview Penthouse in Salthill
we had a to leave a day early but would have loved to have finished my stay. it was so relaxing

Rockfield Cottage
We were two families staying in the house and were very comfortable. The house is very spacious, very clean and beautifully decorated. Kinvara is a beautiful town and the nearby surroundings had so much to do! Traught beach was especially lovely where we went for a dip and a sauna. We recommend the place whole heartedly and hope to have the fortune to stay here again in the future!

Dolphin Beach Lodge
Don’t spend another minute looking and book this beautiful house with the most impressive Atlantic views ever. We loved Barbara‘s home. It was close to Clifton town and perfect for any touring around the Conamara region. It was in a quiet secluded area with killer views and a private beach that my kids loved. I will miss waking up to this view every morning. Thank you for an amazing experience in Connamara.. Clodagh the host were very responsive with instant replies. Thank you and we will come back again someday.

Beautiful spacious Farmhouse with stunning views
Max and Beatrice have a beautiful cottage home. It was the perfect place for our family of 11 to be…ages 2-66. We truly made some incredible memories. Max had great recommendations for a cute restaurant down the road… We fell in love with everyone’s hospitality the country side!

3 Bedroom Penthouse with Seaview
John was brilliant with all the relevant information for our stay needed. The apartment is absolutely stunning, we were taken back when we first walked in. Great area with stunning views of Galway bay. We will be back

Galway Bay Sea View 2 bedroom Standard Apartment
The apartment looked just as it appeared in the photos. It is across the street from the water with a patio, living room, and ensuite bedroom view of the water from inside the apartment. The apartment was clean. My only complaint was that the phone number is only monitored from 9am-5pm. We had a plumbing issue. The person monitoring overnight didn't call us to notify the regular staff would assist in the morning. Communication on the issue could've been better. The staff responded quickly otherwise. She was very friendly and eager to assist. I would definitely stay here again. The furniture and beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had things so you could cook & a dishwasher. There was a washer/dryer combo. The area was walkable with restaurants, drug stores, a movie theater, small market, and casinos. We didn't stop at any of the casinos so I couldn't recommend any. Our favorite dinner was at this authentic Italian restaurant called La Collina.
