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.

Great house in Spanish Point
The house is fabulous ❤️ Comfortably accomodates 8 people. On wild Atlantic way. 3 minute walk to Armada hotel & 5 minute walk tp Spanish point beach. 5 minute drive to local town of Miltown Malbay. Great local cliff walks at other beaches too, White Strand & Quilty, both within 10 minute drive. Great restaurants nearby. Ivan is very friendly. Plenty of towels there & washing machine too - not mentioned on description I dont think. Highly recommend this gem!

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

Loughnafooey Camping
An idyllic camping spot - nice hiking and swimming in this area - located beside a lovely pub with great hospitality - overall a lovely experience

Red Island House, on the shore of Lough Mask
Thanks Patrick. We loved every minute of our stay in your beautiful spacious home in it's stunning setting. Was so nice to get away from the hustle & bustle and catch up with our pals with stunning scenery all around. We really enjoyed the kayaks, Ping Pong, archery & barbecuing in the garden. Hoping to return again :)

House by the sea in beautiful Westport Quay
The house was ideally located, about 200 metres from bars, restaurants and shops. Beautiful view of Clew Bay and Croagh Patrick.

Cozy seaside home,3 minute walk to village/beach
Excellent place and host

Blue Rock Lecanvey.......with Clew bay views
The accommodation is very well located and good value for money. Emer is very responsive, gave us some great tips.

The Herons Rest Townhouse 16 - Sea views
Beautiful views, amazing area, immaculately clean, so much to watch from the window yet still peaceful and quiet for bed, short walk to all the cool streets, pubs and sites - one of my favorite Airbnb’s. Highly recommend and will definitely return!

Ultra-comfortable Connemara House / Sea Views
Very comfortable. Beautiful surroundings and view. Didn’t want to leave.

Atlantic Whisper
Beautiful location with stunning views from every window. House had everything we needed during our stay. Susie was a great host checking in with us but allowed us to do our own thing. Would definitely stay again!

The Bay Coach House, private sea access, sleeps 6
A Truly Exceptional Stay in Murrisk I can’t recommend this property highly enough! From the moment we arrived, it felt like a true home away from home. The host, Lorraine, was incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, going above and beyond to make our stay special. The house itself is beautifully presented, with luxurious bedding and towels, underfloor heating, squeaky clean and everything just right. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a delightful welcome package that included homemade scones and jam, a bottle of wine, water, and even milk—which I had forgotten to pick up at the shop. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare and so appreciated...as we're the sticks for climbing the reek! The location is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of Clew Bay. It’s peaceful, serene, and only a short distance from Westport. I’ve stayed in many Airbnbs over the years, but this one truly stands out for its warmth and exceptional hospitality of Lorraine. We loved our stay and will be back!

Seafield Cabin
A true gem in Ireland. Laura‘s and Shane’s tiny house was one of the best experiences we had on Airbnb. The place is magnificent, clean and has everything our family of three needed. Lauras family is so helpful and lovely we felt right at home. We could have stayed a small eternity in this house. Thank you, for having us.

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

Berrylodge Country House Spanish Point Clare
We had a great stay in Berry Lodge. Perfect for a a large family gathering. So much space. Great to be able to bring the dog too. David was very helpful and responsive when needed. So close to the beach in Spanish point and a great location to explore Clare. Will be back again

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!

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
