This was a perfect place for our last night in Ireland. Beers by the ocean on the patio and dinner in the dining room. Our room was seaside and we were able to hear the waves as we drifted off to sleep. Very peaceful!

This place is amazing. After a rough start with the rental car company, the woman that checked us in turned it all around for us! She was lovely. We had a nice walk around the beach and then had a wonderful dinner in the restaurant. We ate both dinner and breakfast here and they were both fantastic. Our rooms had an amazing view of the beach/water.

The pro’s were the beautiful location on the ocean and a great Walking path along the water. The con’s were the hotel was a little worn, the room was very small for two people and staff were not overly friendly.

Rooms need a refresh

The rooms need an update. No fans or air conditioning. Bed was very hard and slopping. Bathroom small without a fan and a very bad smell.
cynthia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room had garbage left on floor and bathroom need updating. Mold area are corner of tub. Floor tiles by elevator was missing creating trip hazard. Very quiet at night and peaceful sleeping. Breakfast service was excellent and included.
Madonna, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

the location is in front of the sea. You can appreciate the sound of the sea waves. The problem is that it is not well served by buses to reach it. The breakfast is average. Good value for money.
Vincenzo, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was a bit dated and shabby. Not as nice as the images. However, the hotel is well situated, right on the beach-front. The night before we were due to leave, we had booked for dinner for the family at 6pm. When we arrived for dinner, we were informed the kitchen was closed because the hotel’s gas supply was cut. Nobody had made any effort to inform us in advance of us arriving for dinner. We have two young children who were hungry. We tried to find somewhere local to eat, but couldn’t find anywhere to go appropriate for young children. We finally went to a local supermarket and bought food to eat in our room. The following morning the gas supply had still not been fixed and there was no hot water to allow us to shower before our journey home. There was no attempt by the hotel to assist with alternative eating arrangements or to apologise for the situation. It was a disappointing end to a lovely holiday in Ireland.
Lorena, 3-night trip

Gorgeous location, with long stretches of beach and shoreline trails to walk.

I would have liked the room to be a bit better kept. There was still trash on the floor and the bathrooms were not well kept.
