Apartment rentals with beach access

Oceanfront Oasis . Free Parking
This is a modern apartment in a secure building, right on the seafront at Salthill. Nearby free public car park, so we left our car for the duration and either walked to the West End (30 mins) for entertainment, or took the 401 bus (15 mins). Lots of local eating, drinking and music venues. Lifeguard station at the beach, but we eschewed swimming this particular weekend. Very comfortable bed, sunspot with chairs on an enormous balcony, allowing privacy. Would highly recommend.

Westend Apartment, Galway City
Perfect place to stay in Galway for our family. Great location and all the amenities we needed.

The Westend Hideaway #2 - Sleeps 4
Thank you for making your place available to us. We were comfortable, enjoyed our stay and would recommend the home to anyone staying in Derry.

Lovely sea side apartment in Louisburgh
It was an incredible stay at a farm cottage. The family leaving at the farm was the kindest and the most welcoming people. I will definitely come back

The Rest @ Sea
Great location. Walking distance to cafes and restaurants. Quiet considering it is densely residential. Off street parking. Spacious accommodation.

Sea View Apartment
Lovely little place, super cozy and had all the kitchen items needed to cook a stay in meal. Loved the close by beach, spent a good majority of our time down there. Máirín and Paddy were very friendly and welcoming hosts. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!

Loch an Dilliúr Apartment
We spent 2 nights in Loch an Dilliúr guesthouse, a 5/10 minute walk from Carraroe Village, Co. Galway. The accommodation was excellent. A very spacious, spotless 2 bedroomed apartment, kitchen/dining room, etc. The hosts were lovely, very friendly and helpful. Would return again, highly recommended. Ar fheabhas ar fad!

Burrenwest selfcatering apartment
Was really totally cozy in the nice apartment. Walk to the sea to watch wading birds and then have an ice cream in the ice cream shop right next to the apartment. Very nice. In addition, the wonderful silence. Because the Burren offers so much and the impressive Cliffs of Moher are so close, we are definitely considering coming back. We loved it.
House rentals with beach access

Luxury house with panoramic views in Connemara
This home was absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean when we checked in. Mark was very easy to communicate with and responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

Newly refurbished 4 bedroom house. Prime location.
It was perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing!

Derrypark Cottage
A big thank you to Piero for the support.

Tom Jacks, coastal views and beach walks Connemara
Tom Jacks is in a stunning, peaceful, location with beautiful coastal views. We even spotted Dolphins, whilst eating breakfast outside! The decking area is spacious and comfortable outdoor furniture is provided,along with a BBQ. Inside, the house is very clean and quite spacious, with a log burner for cosy evenings. (Plenty of logs provided) The house is well situated for drives to the local beaches and surrounding area. Letterfrack has a good supermarket. We wouldn’t hesitate in returning in the future.

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!

Dolphin Beach Lodge
We have stayed at many places in Ireland over last few years but Dolphin Beach Lodge has become our favourite place so far. The house is beautiful and so clean with everything you might need for your stay or more. The location is brilliant with breathtaking views and its own private beach. We got very lucky with the weather and even spotted a couple of very playful dolphins on our last morning here. Clodagh is one of the best hosts we have stayed with who even allowed us to check in early and check out late to make the most of the weather. We have already started to plan our next stay.

Spiddal, near Galway. On the Wild Atlantic Way.
We greatly enjoyed our stay here. It felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, yet surrounded by so many great places and things to do. The house was cozy and very unique. Sheila and Redmond are fantastic hosts. They cared very much about us having a great experience and provided support and a wealth of knowledge on the area. This was the perfect place to call home for our few days in County Galway. We hope we can make it back one day!!

Teach Loistín, Aughinish, Co. Clare
My friend and I had the most lovely stay with David and Cheryl. They made us feel very at home and cared for with their recommendations for what to do in the area and thoughtful conversations over delicious coffee + breakfast. The home was beautiful and very comfortable + cozy. We hope to be back!
Condo rentals with beach access

Quay-side luxury sea-view apartment, Kinvara
Lovely place a few minutes walk to a handful of great pubs and restaurants. Apartment was clean and well stocked with extra towels, etc. Great communication from Fiona prior to our stay which included lots of useful suggestions on things to do and places to see in the area.

Urban retreat close to all Galway has to offer
Great spot for me and my family to visit Galway. Quiet area with a great cafe just around the corner. Max was incredibly friendly and the book of suggestions and brochures was a nice touch. He even set up a high chair for our little one and offered a baby cot (we had one already with us). Thanks Max!

Ocean Breeze Lodge Apartment (Brand New)
Spotless beautiful home was perfect for my family of 4. Allen brought fresh scones that were absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend to other families.

Griffins Tiernee
Me, my cousin and his two young sons stayed at Gail and Antoine's house in Garmna, right in the middle of the islands in Connemara. We had a warm welcome from the first day not only from Gail and Antoine but also from their neighbors. The house was veryclean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. The bedrooms were to a high standard and the place was veryconvenient for the fishery, our reason for coming. Antoine was extremely generous with his time and advice. We loved the pool table in the evening. The atmosphere was always relaxed and welcoming. I highly recommend anyone who would like a trulyIrish experience in beautiful Connemara. We will undoubtedly be back!

Kathleen's Cosy apartment with car parking.
Very lovely home in a calm nice neighborhood-ideal for exploring Galway and the surroundings Can absolutely recommend the place - Pauline is a very friendly supportive host witj a very proactive communication style

Beautiful one bed apartment in excellent location
I was looking for a quiet and yet beautiful spot to relax . Matthew's place was above and beyond my expectations. I was arriving on my own in Spiddal for the first time and a bit worried about finding the apartment and getting in. Matthew gave me detailed information and pictures of entering the apartment.. It couldn't have been easier!! And so secure. The apartment itself is beautiful. I felt so at home. The views and walks are hard to describe in words, so lovely. People in Spiddal are extremely welcoming. Groceries, pubs and the bus are a few steps away. In a few words, I can't wait to go back and definitely hope I can stay at the apartment. My home away from home. Thanks Matthew!!

Galway Wild Atlantic Way Holiday Apartment
We can’t say enough about how wonderful our stay was! Mairead was warm and welcoming and her place was perfectly cozy and fully equipped. We were able to walk to a local pub, a grocery store to cook, and the beach ( about 10-15 minutes). We also conveniently were able to take a bus to nearby Galway and Au Spiddal, a cute little craft town. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get away to the countryside with easy access to city life!

Atlantic Retreat Luxury Apartment 2 - Burren views
We really enjoyed our stay at this Airbnb. The location was beautiful, it was incredibly spacious! It was spotlessly clean and the host was very helpful, and really took time to think of all the little details to make the stay comfortable. I would just say to be aware that others are renting the main house below you. You have your own door to lock so it’s not uncomfortable, but you do enter the same front door as them. And if you want to use the laundry you need to walk around back and enter the house from the back ; so it is possible that the other family is outside or can see you from the dining area. It didn’t bother us , but the other family staying there wasn’t aware we would be there, so just thought it worth mentioning. But we loved the stay!
