Fabulous resort

One of the most beautiful spots in all of Ireland- and we’ve seen a lot of the country. The hotel was spacious, super clean and excellent staff & crew. I’ve never seen such cleaning practices in a hotel/resort. Food & drinks were fabulous and the amenities were great too. Walking paths were a great way to see the shoreline and the forest. Played the 9 hole course too ⛳️

Proper old fashioned service - very friendly and amenable staff. Stunning location. Room and bathroom was a bit disappointing - very plain, with dated furniture and fittings, though the carpet seemed new. Thanks to the excellent service levels, it really was like a peek into the past. A unique experience.

The most beautiful setting I’ve ever seen! The grounds and the outside of the property are amazing. The inside needs a refurbishment. Feels worn out and the bar had kids sitting at it with prams, it was hard to get a drink. Amazing golf course but golf house is small and feels disorganized.

Fabulous stay, would highly recommend!!

Writing this review couldn't be easier as we could not fault anything in this beautiful hotel. The only downside is that we could only stay for one night. From entering reception when we arrived to checking out, we felt totally spoilt. The staff were so friendly and the service next to none. Our room was lovely and spotlessly clean. The hotel itself has beautiful features with incredible artwork on every wall. You can do so much here from relaxing in the Thermal suite to going for a walk in one of the numerous trails in the grounds of the hotel. The food was exceptional too. Our stay was so relaxing and we felt totally recharged after just one day, I envied anyone staying for longer! This was our first trip here but it will not be our last :)

We really enjoying walking and jogging the trails around the hotel and taking a dip in the sea. The setting is beautiful, the staff are friendly and competent and the pool and sauna are equally good. I loved the fact that children are not allowed in the pool from 8am to 10am and from 6pm to 8pm to allow adults actually do some swimming - more hotels should institute that rule. Our only disappointment was when we arrived and found our room looked really tired and really needed a refurb. We feared that was what the rest of the hotel would be like (it wasn’t). Moreover, the manager gave us a discount on an upgrade and that instead set the tone for our stay. We will be back.

Ein wunderschönes Hotel.. Auch die Umgebung ist ein Traum. Sehr freundliches Personal. Leider für Paare, welche Ruhe und Erholung suchen, nicht geeignet. Ausser man ist sehr, sehr Kinderliebend!!!!! Es hat überall Kinder und Kleinkinder, Genörgel und Gejammer beim Frühstück beim Abendessen überall.. Ist sehr schade!!!

Better than expected and great value. Hotel staff were wonderful, pleasant and helpful. Not stuffy at all. Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Great dining service. Purchase breakfast along with your stay....it's delicious and plentiful. Great spa, saunas, pool and infinity pool, but book massage, etc., well in advance. Do try the kayaking with Noel, and do take the nature and sky walks with Vincent.

Parknasilla: A True Home Away From Home

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Parknasilla Resort & Spa, a true hidden gem. From the moment I arrived, everyone welcomed me warmly, making me feel instantly at home. The reception team, especially Anastasia, provided exceptional service with genuine warmth and professionalism. At breakfast, Ilja was incredibly attentive, frequently checking in to ensure I had everything I needed. The hotel café felt like a cozy, inviting corner of the resort, thanks to Bo, whose friendly presence added a special touch to the atmosphere. What truly made my experience unforgettable was the outstanding care from Guest Relations Manager, Emma. Emma combines remarkable hospitality expertise with genuine warmth, elevating the entire guest experience. Her professional yet approachable manner makes every guest feel truly valued and cared for from arrival to departure. Emma anticipates guest needs proactively and fulfills requests—whether simple or special—with sincere dedication and a smile. Her leadership greatly contributes to Parknasilla’s stellar reputation for customer service, creating a welcoming atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. Parknasilla is not just a beautiful place surrounded by stunning nature and luxurious facilities; it is the people who bring it to life. Thanks to Emma, Anastasia, Ilja, Bo, and the entire team, my visit was magical. I highly recommend Parknasilla Resort & Spa for a warm, high-quality experience in Ireland.
