We enjoyed this hotel mainly because of its location in the Kerry, just minutes away from Portmagee.
This allowed us to visit Skellig Michael island after standing by for 3 days for suitable landing conditions.
The location is also very good for the Skellig Ring we drove a couple of times.
About the hotel, very nice room with beautiful sea view, private parking and very good restaurant.
Hotel staff was fantastic and very helpful.

The apartment was perfect, located just outside Portmagee which was fine for us as we had a car. We needed a taxi to get to Cahersiveen for dinner and the hosts were very kind to offer to take us.

So much to see of historic nature and the beauty of the landscape breathtaking, from the Skelligs to cliff walks to the beauty of the blue flag beaches in the area. Food lovers paradise. Favourite restaurant is Driftwood, just 10 minute drive from Ballinskelligs. Cois Trá Café with a stroll down to the beach a must.

The staff and guests were very open an hospitable in the Hostel before, during and after the trip. We were disappointed not to get to the islands because of the weather but there was so much else to se and do in the area that we had plenty of alternatives. There was terrific scenery to see no matter what road we took for a walk in the area and we left knowing we needed to stay a lot longer ! The beach café close by was a novel experience for us.JohnIreland - 10Scored 10

A beautifully quiet village with a lovely safe beach for swimming, and other watersports, lots of great walks, and has a beautiful backdrop of mountains. It has one small shop only and one pub. There is an arts centre with coffee shop but not open consistently. It's a few miles to Cahirciveen or Waterville to find restaurants and theres a Supervalue supermarket in Cahirciveen. The skies at night are magnificent due to lack of light pollutionThelmaIreland - 10Scored 10

There is a lot to see, so get on your bike and explore the entire area. When you finished biking go for a hot Chocolate at the chocolate factory. Otherwise just chill and have a good rest. There is a good bit of history in the area, you can also connect with something positive and beautiful on the spiritual side!

Good beach walk, ruined abbey to visit (free), Sunday morning craft and food market. Pub had gone downhill since last visit and was not yet doing food. Nor were the take away places opposite open in mid-June. There is one well equipped shop, but it closed around 6pm and one cafe that I did not get a chance to visit. A place for people who like the simple life!AlannahIreland

- From £128.91 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 231 reviewsLocation was great, only a short drive away (approx. 15 mins) from Waterville and Cahersiveen, and a great location to explore the Kerry coast, Skellig islands, Valentia Island, etc. The B&B itself is a charming refurbished school house, and we found the bedroom to be spacious and clean, with comfortable beds. Our hosts were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious (and made to order), served in the very pleasant guest lounge. Overall we enjoyed our 2-night stay there. Thank you!
Mags2018Ireland - 9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 16 reviewsSetting is beautiful and peaceful. The views from the sunroom are spectacular of the Irish countryside and you can see St. Finian's Bay and Skellig Michael. Great skellig ring location. We got to help herd sheep and watch shearing! Host Michael was very quick to respond to our requests and went above and beyond to resolve minor problems. The house is well equipped and accommodated 5 adults well. The wood burning stove worked well and was pleasant to use when the Summer Irish weather turned cooler.KentUnited States
- 7.3Scored 7.3GoodRated good· 23 reviewsLocation is very good, quite close to the Ballinskelligs beach and easy distance to Waterville, Finian's Bay, Cahirciveen, and Port Magee. You have the whole cottage to yourself and the upstairs rooms are very big, full bathrooms upstairs and downstairs (downstairs is en suite in the third bedroom). Full kitchen and good size common area. Four cottages with a shared driveway area our front, plenty parking. Someone did come by the day after arrival to check in and see did we need anything.
DiaIreland - 8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 233 reviewsThe kitchen had room for three people to cook simultaneously, and amenities to accommodate (pans, pots, flatware, dinnerware). The dining area was on the small side, but large enough to have four or five families (in normal times). Pleasant decor, decent quality as well. Good hostel setup.
