Exquisite property with ocean views and outstanding Michelin restaurant . We had the best meal of our trip there in the bar . Wish we could’ve stayed the whole week. Staff amazing as were our rooms. Hope some day to go back. I’ve traveled to six continents for my job and truly can say this was one of the loveliest places I’ve ever stayed.

Beautiful hotel located on the Dunmore bay. Our family room had a lovely view on the ocean. The room is peaceful and very big, with a separate space and a double bed for the kids. The hotel lobby and restaurant are well decorated and very cosy. We had dinner in the casual dining area. They should find another name because ’casual’ doesn’t do it justice: it’s lovely, cosy and the food is great. But most of all, the staff was really great: very professional and friendly. We’d all love to go back.

Exceptional service, nicely-appointed rooms, and excellent breakfast and dinner fare. The grounds are also lovely, with a walk down to a cove. Note that the hotel is on the opposite side of the inlet from Inchydoney Beach, but there is a small beach 0.8 mi down the road. Highly recommended (and far preferable to staying in town, we thought).

Lovely place overlooking the ocean. Staff are very helpful and pleasant. Rooms well appointed with comfortable beds, and bathroom was newly renovated. Our room overlooked the ocean so we had the would have waves to lull us to sleep. Breakfast was delicious with healthy choices. Service excellent. We will most definitely return.

Gorgeous views, clean room and comfortable bed. Wish there was some way to open the windows and not have a room full of midgies. There was no other ventilation and would’ve loved to have the sea air through the night and morning. It was loud in the room at night and in the morning. I was forgotten about whilst dining outside and it ruined the experience. The woman in reception was lovely. Beautiful property and visit was ok.

We also visited the Famine Museum, a worthwhile stop to educate us about the horrible famine of the 1840s. We had seen the Dombeg Circle, a highlight of our travels, on the day traveling to the Dunmore.
