10/10 Excellent
"We have been coming to Connemara for 34 years, and this house is in the perfect spot for us. Not only do you get gorgeous views over the tranquil Betraboy Bay, but on the other side of the bay you can see Roundstone and round to the east, the Twelve Pins mountain range. The house is impeccably designed so that all the communal living spaces are functional and spacious, while somehow managing to fit in five spacious bedrooms where you can be tucked away with some quiet and privacy. It really is a functional house for a large family gathering. The house has an abundance of options when it comes to different facilities, from washing machines and dryers to dishwashers and ways to dry out beach kit. There's plenty of garden space for kids to run around, has good Wi-Fi, everything you could ever hope for when booking a house for a week. On top of that, John and Mairead were incredibly helpful and courteous, quick to respond with any queries we had. They really made us feel at home. Some people in other reviews have mentioned that Glinsk is a remote area, and this is true. It's definitely as asset. This is why you can enjoy local beaches, walks and mountains without the hundreds of tourists that are now flocking to other parts of Ireland's coast. There are plenty of shops and coffee shops nearby - within a ten-minute drive you can get all the basics, but Clifden, just 30 minutes away, has all the big supermarkets where you can get everything you could ever need. Highly recommend."

Lahinch Coast Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"We greatly enjoyed our stay during spring break with our family of 5. We booked 2 adjoining rooms, including a suite, and had plenty of space. Room was a bit warm, but a call to front desk (to ensure I knew how to modify temp controls) and things were worked out and heat turned off in room. The restaurant food was great and staff were wonderful. Room was clean and son enjoyed the pool. My only less than perfect experience is the constant door noise heard well into the late evening. There are fire doors in the hallways, with one almost every 3 - 4 rooms. They stay closed 24-7 and make noise every time they close when anyone walks through. Even in our large suite with a separate closed door to our bedroom, I heard the door all evening and did not get much sleep. Would be nice to have some sort of cushioning on door jam to preclude hearing them close."

"This was a hidden gem. We weren't expecting such impressive accommodations. We were located in the building across the street from the main office. We had our own bedroom (with sitting area) and a shared internal space to use. Rooms were very clean, well appointed and staff were courteous and helpful. Breakfast was included and excellent."

"The Coastal View House was perfect for our one night stay. The property and room was very clean and had everything we needed. Beds were also very comfortable. Slept great! The property was very quiet and peaceful being a short drive outside of the village of Doolin. We did consider walking into Doolin but it was going to be about a 30 minute walk & we we all hungry! It was a very short drive (<5 minutes) back into Doolin and we enjoyed a nice dinner. Hosts were very communicative and provided some great information about the area, check-in and check-out were also very straight foward. There was plenty of parking on-site. A great stay! Would stay here again."
