Cottage at Doonagore Castle

RobertRating, 5 stars2 days ago
This place is an absolute dream. Perched up on a hill you get incredible views of both the ocean and the castle sitting in the Irish countryside. Charming does not even begin to cover it, from the adorable window boxes to the sweet curtains....it's perfection. Incredibly private, your only neighbors are the cows who share the adjacent field :) Just a few minutes drive to town....we cannot wait to come back. Thank you for the memories!

5* Luxury Apartment in the Heart of Galway City

ElodieRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Jamie a été un hôte exceptionnel. Il donne des explications très claires avec de nombreuses photos et des videos pour nous aider. L'appartement est nickel, très propre, élégant et décoré avec beaucoup de goût. Et j'ai adoré tous les petits mots disposés un peu partout dans l'appartement, pour nous donner des indications (de façon marrante en plus). L'appartement est super bien placé, dans un endroit calme, alors qu'il est en plein coeur de la ville et des rues festives pour des soirées inoubliables. Jamie a toujours été présent, pour répondre hyper vite aux questions. Encore merci pour tout. Je vous le recommande très chaudement.

Sea-Renity Cottage on The Cliff

NicoleRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our stay at Jean’s Airbnb was truly unforgettable, filled with warmth and tranquility. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with exceptional hospitality and the serene beauty of the surroundings. The property was a peaceful haven, offering the perfect escape from the daily grind. What truly made our stay special were the thoughtful touches, like the lovely bottle of wine, wheaten bread and biscuits waiting for us upon arrival, and the ample supply of wood for the the outdoor firepit. Jean's excellent communication made us feel right at home, ensuring we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a perfect getaway, and we wholeheartedly recommend Jean’s Airbnb.

Galway city luxury house

AndreaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Mary’s place was amazing for our family of four adults on our trip to Galway. Immaculate house - everything was spotless from top to bottom. The home had everything we needed, and more! Mary was very generous from coffee to tea, snacks and even had makings for a simple dinner if needed. We felt well pampered by the amenities offered. Everything was quite well designed and luxurious. We each had plenty of room to spread out and come together for a night watching TV after exploring the Galway area. Mary was very responsive and helpful. Would 100% stay here again if in Galway. Highly recommend!

Nualas Seaview Haven

VeronicaRating, 5 starstoday
I cannot say enough about Martina’s Airbnb. It was tastefully decorated and she thought if every possible amenity in the kitchen, living room and bath. The washer/dryer was a much appreciated bonus. Martina was quite responsive- especially upon our arrival when we had some confusion about the location of the entrance to the underground car park for the apartment. She immediately provided added visuals and instructions. You will not be disappointed if you book with her!
