The hotel is a lovely spot with spotless and airy rooms, a warm and relaxed lounge/bar but lacking air conditioning. The service is nice and very efficient, providing a wonderful experience with friendly and attentive staff. The location offers wonderful views over the beach, ideal for relaxation, although the nearby 'murder hole beach' is not that great. Dining is excellent, serving freshly cooked traditional Irish meals beside the beach. The facilities are excellent with local organic products available.

I had an amazing stay at the hotel! The rooms were fab, very spacious, and overlooked the town with a view of the sea and hills, although it was a little bit warm for my liking. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, the location was great for exploring the surroundings, and the dining experience was everything you would want. A few minor things to consider, but overall a wonderful experience.
