Grattan House, Salthill, Galway

MichelleRating, 5 stars10 months ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Grattan Holiday Apartments, car parking out the back, spacious rooms, well-equipped kitchen and within walking distance to the beach, local pubs and restaurants. It's about a 20 minute walk into Galway city and taxi back is around €10. Highly recommend a stay here. Sean and Cathal are on hand if you need them and will recommend places to visit and eat

Saltcliff Cottage - Sea Views to Aran Islands

PatriciaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our family loved the cottage. The views and sunsets were just beautiful. It is 2 minutes from Cliffs if Moher and about 8 minutfrom Doolin. It was a nice touch to have breakfast foods for the first morning. The hot tub was an added bonus. We had a great dinner at Russell Seafood and listened to music at McDermotts.

Mask Valley Lodge, Westport & Clifden with hot tub

ChristopherRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A beautiful home with outstanding views! If you're looking for somewhere private and peaceful, then this is the place for you. Couldn't have asked for a more relaxing getaway from the day to day. Fully recharged after the stay which was overdue as I'm sure it is for most. Home was super clean and everything needed was there. The surrounding area definitely matches the tranquil home and you will definitely not be disappointed. This is what an Air BnB truly is. 5 Stars *****

The Crows Nest, Crumlin Park, Ballyglunin, Galway

MatthiasRating, 5 stars2 days ago
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.

The Spanish Arch Retreat - Sleeps 4

TraceyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We spent about 3 weeks touring Scotland and Ireland and this was hands down the cleanest and prettiest flat throughout our stay. It was so close to all the action; however, was far enough away to have some peace. The check directions were smooth. You can hear people outside with the windows open - and sometimes a bit late but it really wasn’t anything that would keep you up at night. Would absolutely stay here again.

Pat mors cottage

StaceyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My favorite Airbnb on our Ireland trip! Our stay at Pat Mors Cottage was the perfect peaceful retreat in the countryside. The cottage is full of charm, cozy, and beautifully maintained, with stunning views right outside the door. William was a great host! We arrived pretty late but check-in was extremely easy and William even stopped by the next morning to make sure everything went smoothly for us. We loved getting visits from our neighbors (the sheep and cows 😊) and enjoyed taking the small hike up the hill in the backyard for an amazing view of the surrounding lakes and mountains. We can’t wait to return—this place is a true gem!

Knockbroughaun Restored Stone Farm Cottage

VeronicaRating, 5 stars4 days ago
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!

200yr 4 Star Cottage on 450 acres

JenniferRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We enjoyed our stay and appreciated having some extra space (not just one room) to ourselves. The cottage is very quiet and peaceful, although further from pubs/restaurants than we realized and very narrow, curvy lanes to get to the cottage so we made sure to be back before sunset every night. The cottage is as described and John was very friendly and even called a local restaurant to make a reservation for us for dinner.

Surf view farmhouse cottage

KathleenRating, 5 starstoday
Gwenn’s place is a peaceful retreat with beautiful views of the countryside and glimpses of the ocean. It has a lot of charm and ambiance and we felt like we were really living in the countryside! Reading in the sun room with the quiet fields beyond was a highlight. The house itself has welcoming, warm rooms and Gwenn is a gracious host. We were only sad we couldn’t stay longer. We would definitely stay again!

River View Townhouse - Spanish Arch - City Center

HeatherRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We recently stayed here with a group of 8 (2 kids, 2 elderly). The location was great and we could fall out of the apartment onto open markets, pubs, and shops. The stairs were a little tough for our elderly guests, but the space was great for our needs and gave us the opportunity to be together. Kitchen had what we needed. Would recommend!

Cottage at Ballyglass Lodge, Ardrahan, Co. Galway

SophieRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Our stay at James and Ciara's was just wonderful. As soon as we arrived there were so many thoughtful, luxurious touches that made all the difference after a long day of travel, from lovely smelling diffusers and candles and a roaring fire in the woodburner, to fancy Aesop hand soap and the comfiest pillows and mattress ever. There was also a welcome basket containing some treats such as wine and chocolate and Ciara's incredible homemade Irish soda bread. This is the kind of stuff that really makes a difference when staying in an Airbnb! The place was also spotlessly clean and everything was of very high quality. From the get go their communication was super prompt and friendly, nothing was too much trouble, always offering help, advice and recommendations. J&C are some of the nicest and warmest people you'll ever meet. We also got to meet some of their animals which our daughter LOVED, and the setting and outlook from the cottage is just beautiful. One of the best Airbnbs out there!

Victorian Apartment in The Crescent Close to Town and Sea

JordanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly responsive—quick to answer questions and even helped us with a minor issue (replacing fire alarm batteries) right away. The beds were super comfortable, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches like a bottle of wine, butter, milk, coffee, bread, and jam waiting for us on arrival. The walk into Galway city was short and easy, but we especially loved the cozy bars and great atmosphere on Sea Street, just around the corner. Free parking was a bonus, just a few blocks away—about a five-minute walk. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Galway!

Mary's place was warm and homey. It is an old Irish cottage. She laid out a nice tea with homemade scones and soda bread for our arrival, which were delicious. She also had many things available for personal needs including food items and health and beauty aids. Mary shared advice on things to see and do in the area. We all enjoyed our stay at Bridgie's Cottage.

Excellent location! Right in the middle of the city, with a great cafe just across the street. You can even see a church through the windows of one side of the home. It was a comfortable place for the 4 of us. I would recommend this place!
