Private Suite with Stunning Sea Views
Sea Breeze is a beautiful spot, ideal for exploring Doolin & all the area has to offer. Would highly recommend to anyone keen to get to know the wild Atlantic way. A great find.

Off-grid Cabin 2
We stayed at Frank's beautiful tiny house for two nights and had a great time. Frank provided more than we would have asked for! :) The house is super cozy and has a lot of sweet details!

Pat mors cottage
A beautiful location and cottage, the wood burner makes it suitable for all weather conditions, and William was kind enough to restock the wood when we ran out. He also offered recommendations for walks and hikes

Spectacular ocean views minutes to Cliffs of Moher
Beautiful house with stunning views! Very clean & stocked with essentials. Host was easy to communicate with and replied quickly. We were given a courtesy late check out which was very much appreciated! Would definitely stay here again if we revisit the area. Do not hesitate to book this house.

Beautiful Lakeview Home
You don’t want to pass up this little gem if you’re looking for serenity with a gorgeous view of Lough Derg and the Irish countryside. The home was spacious and accommodating, with everything we needed. We enjoyed playing some games provided by the host, as well as the fun billiards table. My only complaint is we couldn’t stay longer due to our schedule. Would definitely book again. Thanks.

Luxury Galway City Penthouse
We loved our stay in Galway! The apartment had unbelievable views and within walking distance to many pubs and restaurants. Highly recommended!

Burren Lakeside Cottage, County Clare
Wow!!! What a great place. It was such a nice place. Great view. Great accommodation over all. Gerry was such a great host. Made us feel right at home. We will definitely stay here again if we are back in the area. Thank you so much for making our trip enjoyable

Knockbroughaun Restored Stone Farm Cottage
Pat and Mary Angela are marvellous hosts. When we arrived the fires were lit, the table was set and there were gorgeous scones made by Mary Angela. They are both so friendly and gave lots of recommendations of places to visit. Their lovely cottage is perfectly situated for exploring Galway. It is definitely a home from home. My husband and I along with our 3 adult children and 2 Jack Russells had a great time there and we had everything we needed. We also loved Pat and Mary Angela's cafe and bookshop in Oughterard Village. Well worth a visit. Couldn't recommend this cottage highly enough!

Charming Quirky Cottage - Cliffs of Moher
I tried to come here in June 2020 but Covid cancelled flights. I checked for places for this trip and was able to find it again. The cottage is well equipped and is in the most peaceful place with a million dollar/euro view. I would definitely stay again. Mandy was great and gave very good instructions. She answered questions quickly and gave great recommendations. Thanks again Mandy!!!

Rural retreat near Galway Bay.
Laura has a lovely little spot, out of the way. It was a bit of a drive to Galway but enjoyable. She greeted us when we arrived and wax helpful. My daughter loved the tiny house.

Catherine's Cottage @ Ross Castle Galway
Marshall’s place is incredibly beautiful. It was the perfect place for three couple to stay. Marshall met us and gave us a quick tour of the place. She is super nice! Marshall’s place is an easy drive into Galway. I would highly recommend this place.

The Crows Nest, Crumlin Park, Ballyglunin, Galway
We were more than satisfied with the accommodation. We were greeted by horses and the extremely sweet little dog Minnie, and then by delicious scones in the apartment. The area is beautiful and we went on several day trips to Connemara National Park, Burren National Park, the Aran Islands/Cliffs of Moher and Galway. What's more, the area was just perfect for us and the children. My daughters loved feeding the horses and playing with Minnie the dog. Or, if it rains a little, there is additional room for playing, which is equipped with some toys, table tennis, etc. Maura responded quickly to minor problems and helped us out, and was generally very accommodating. If we ever visit Ireland again, we will definitely stop by here again.

Four bedroom house, walking distance of city centr
Great size space for our group and able to walk was a huge plus for us. Enjoyed our stay.

Spanish Arch Townhouse - City Center- Free Parking
Nice place in Galway, centered in the old city center. Walkable to lots of restaurants and shops nearby, and it has a nice view of the river. The home was clean and comfortable, with space for our family of four. The street noise is lively at night. Great location and we would recommend it.

Ard B and B Loft
Fantastic location and spacious, thoughtfully decorated space that is comfortable and inviting. We stayed here for our first 2 nights of our Ireland vacation and the perfect way to start. There was parking for our car and amazing warm shower, cozy linens and plenty of room to stretch out and plan our visit. You basically have your own little apartment that has the coolest vibe (something from an interior design book) and Galway restaurants, music, pubs and shops just outside the door. We drove to Connemara one day as a day trip and returned for a delicious dinner at Ard Bia's restaurant - be sure to get a reservation here as food and atmosphere is amazing. Highly recommend this spot - one of our best AirBnB's to date!

The Stables
The location and view were breathtaking - looking out over Fanore beach, nestled against the hills of the Burren. John was flexible and quick to respond. Pet friendly & a small shop + bar nearby. Will stay there again soon. 10/10 would recommend. A true taste of the real Ireland.

Exquisite Galway City Penthouse– Sleeps 7
John's penthouse apartment was a wonderful place to stay. The place was immaculately clean and seemed to be fairly newly constructed. The terrace was a great place and we would have loved to spend more time there if the weather had been permitting. There were a number of details to deal with to get into the place but that was due to no fault on John's part but because the apartment complex is very secure. The location was perfect - a short walk to the vibrant pubs, shops, and great restaurants of central Galway. We would love to stay there again if we ever get back to Galway.

Kinvara Cottage Walk to Harbor, Castle, Pubs+
We had a great stay at Gerry's cottage. We mainly communicated with Bridget and she was very responsive. The town of Kinvara is beautiful and we enjoyed walking around the area most days. Thanks Gerry and Bridget for a great stay.

Green Acres Self Catering Holiday Home
the house was very clean and well mentioned. ita close to Tesco store. our welcome was very well and check in was very smooth. Martina is very good host and an amazing house owner. would recommend to all who love to spend time away from crowd but close to nature.

Peaceful Haven on the Wild Atlantic Way
Stunning cottage stay at Fiona and Seans holiday cottage ,beautiful scenery and great weather to go with it. Fiona and Sean are very friendly people and gave us some great imformation on the local restaurants and places to visit. We enjoyed treating little Elsa the dog every time we see her. Thankyou Fiona and Sean.

Seashore Cottage on Galway Bay
Very good stay at Rory's, who was quite responsive. The apartment is located in a quiet area, the environment is very pleasant and the accommodation well-equipped and clean. As mentioned in the comments, the accommodation deserves a little interior refresh. Thank you Rory for your hospitality!

Spectacular and Contemporary Penthouse in Galway
We loved our stay! It's roomy and has great views. The rooftop terrace was beautiful. It was immaculately clean, a great location, and an easy walk into the center of town. John was very responsive and the checkin/checkout instructions were clear. There's a binder with explanations and photos for all the appliances, TVs, and WiFi connection, as well as info on restaurants and food markets. I highly recommend staying here, and I look forward to my return trip.

Vidomare Cottage - FAST WIFI, CLEAN & COMFORTABLE!
We had a wonderful stay in the cottage! It was charming, quiet, functional and all around delightful. The space was very comfortable and well-appointed. The local town of Oughterard has some great pubs and anything else you need to enjoy a vacation. We found the location to be a great basecamp to explore the whole region.

Kildysart Lodge
Stunning house located in the countryside of County Clare. The house had plenty of space for two families and was very comfy. The host Maria was very communicative and helpful. The location was convenient to visit locations such as the Cliffs of Moher, Galway, Ailwee Caves etc. Fantastic stay and can fully recommend.
