Suas Thuas (Up Above), Dogs Bay beach. Errisbeg.
Das Haus besticht eindeutig durch seine Lage und der grandiosen Aussicht auf den Atlantik und die nahe Dog's Bay. Der Strand ist in weniger als 10 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Dem Ferienhaus von Catherine merkt man an, daß es erst vor ein paar Jahren fertig gestellt wurde. Es ist alles in einem Top Zustand. Und auch wenn ich mich wiederhole....es ist einfach die Lage und die umwerfende AUSSICHT, die diesen herrlichen Flecken zu etwas ganz besonderen machen. Catherine rundet das ganze mit ihrer herzlichen, humorvollen und offen Art ab. Vielen Dank für Alles🤗

Cottage 101 - Moyard
Absolutely stunning location!!!!! We spent an entire morning climbing on the peninsula, looking in the tide pools, watching the otters play, and seabirds fly. The sheep near by could be seen and heard and I couldn't imagine a more beautiful spot. It was a short drive to Kylemore Abbey and the national park. The shear sense of serenity and freshness was invigorating. The beds were comfortable and the living room was well stocked with reading material for a peaceful evening. My group has already discussed coming back for a longer stay just to enjoy the coastline more.

Wild Atlantic Cottage - Connemara Seaview Idyllic setting, amazing views
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage very comfortable, clean, warm and well presented and communication was excellent.

Thatch Cottage by the Sea on Galway Bay
Beautiful thstched roof cottage on the sea. Spent a peaceful two nights and enjoyed the nearby walks that Paul had recommended including the restaurant in nearby Ballyvaughn. We even had a tourist bus stop in front of the cottage for photos! That's how charming it is! Thanks you so much for sharing your home with us!

Tievemore House
The view from the front of the house is fantastic. The bedrooms and kitchen were fine. The bathroom could do with a bit of tlc but was ok for our visit. The living room shared that wonderful view.

Cosy, En-Suite By The Ocean In Galway City
Agradable estancia, lugar limpio y cómodo. Anthony siempre atento a los mensajes y apoyo en lo que se requiera. Puntos a favor por contar con estacionamiento justo enfrente de la habitación.

Beautiful Stone Cottage - sleeps 6/7 beside beach
Location was out of this world. We were very lucky with the weather too. It was one to remember.

Austin's Cottage, Ballyconneely
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. Lovely views and so peaceful. House was perfect for us - clean and well equipped. The area is so beautiful, with great walks and beaches nearby. Excellent food at Sweet Nothings and at local pubs. Michael was extremely friendly and helpful. Hope to be back.

Sea Stay Galway - Polaris Popcorn, the Pink Boat
We had an amazing stay at this unique Airbnb in the city of Galway. We felt completely at home and the boat was a great house on the water to return to after a day or night out. Carolina was very helpful and answered any questions promptly. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a slightly different experience.

Atlantic Whisper
This stay was absolutely amazing! The place was not only beautiful and spotless, but also incredibly cozy and thoughtfully decorated. Susan was a fantastic host! She went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I couldn’t recommend this place more and would love to come back someday. Thank you, Susan!

Griffins Tiernee
D’fhan mé féin, mo chol ceathrar agus a bheirt mhac óg i dteach Gail agus Antoine i nGarmna, i gceartlár na n-oileán i gConamara. Bhí fáilte chroíúil romhainn ón gcéad lá, ní hamháin ó Gail agus Antoine ach óna gcomharsana freisin. Bhí an teach an-ghlan, compordach agus feistithe go hálainn. Bhí na seomraí codlata ar chaighdeán ard agus bhí an áit an-áisiúil don iascach, ár gcúis le teacht. Bhí Antoine thar a bheith flaithiúil lena chuid ama agus comhairle. Thaitin an bord púil go mór linn tráthnóna. Bhí an t-atmaisféar suaimhneach agus fáiltiúil i gcónaí. Molaim go hard d’aon duine ar mhaith leis eispéireas fíor-Ghaelach i gConamara álainn. Beidh muid ar ais gan dabht!

Emlagh Beach Cottage, an oceanview to remember
Fabulous location right beside the sea. Lovely relaxed house, has everything a family needs. Will be going back again.

Carraige No 223. A recycled green energy carraige.
Staying in James’ renovated train carriage was pure magic! From start to finish, everything about our stay was unforgettable. The carriage itself is beautifully restored—full of character, charm, and thoughtful touches that made it feel both unique and incredibly comfortable. You can really tell how much care and creativity James has poured into every detail. Waking up surrounded by countryside views, with the soft creak of old wood and the morning light streaming through the windows, was such a peaceful experience. The space was spotlessly clean, cozy, and surprisingly spacious, with all the modern comforts you’d expect—without losing any of the vintage charm. James was a fantastic host: welcoming, helpful, and full of great local tips. It’s the perfect getaway if you’re looking for something special and a little out of the ordinary. Highly recommended!

"The Art House" Galway
We enjoyed our stay in Galway, the house is situated in a prime location that’s very walkable to everything. Our hosts were very communicative and helpful. The house itself is very nice and comfortable with everything we needed. Parking was a bit of a struggle (as expected) and there can be some consistent noise outside, but it was a really good choice for us.

Spectacular sea view lodge at Oranmore Castle
Unusual place to find, but once there it was magnificent. The amenities were so appropriate for multiple adult guests, including facilities for people with mobility issues. There are steps, though the width and incline are manageable for someone with limited issues climbing stairs. Thoroughly recommend for a peaceful stay.

Beautiful one bed apartment in excellent location
I was looking for a quiet and yet beautiful spot to relax . Matthew's place was above and beyond my expectations. I was arriving on my own in Spiddal for the first time and a bit worried about finding the apartment and getting in. Matthew gave me detailed information and pictures of entering the apartment.. It couldn't have been easier!! And so secure. The apartment itself is beautiful. I felt so at home. The views and walks are hard to describe in words, so lovely. People in Spiddal are extremely welcoming. Groceries, pubs and the bus are a few steps away. In a few words, I can't wait to go back and definitely hope I can stay at the apartment. My home away from home. Thanks Matthew!!

Sruthán Pier House
Barbara was a great host. The house was perfect come rain or shine. The Spar shop in Carraroe is only 5 minutes away and was as good as any medium sized supermarket with great choice. Don’t miss the Realt pub if you want a good pint of Guinness

The Herons Rest Townhouse 16 - Sea views
Well, what can I say that hasn’t been said by other guests - this is an outstanding rental and Sorcha was a terrific host. The accommodation was exactly as described and super clean. The welcome hamper of food was outstanding- local produce of the highest quality… just loved the granola especially! Everything is walkable from Sorcha’s place whether you’re heading to the pubs, to Eyre Square or in the opposite direction to Salthill; it’s all on your doorstep. The views from the house were fantastic- we watched the Galway hookers set sail and return, so elegant! All in all we’d a super stay and Sorcha was brilliant about communicating & checking that all was okay - so thoughtful. Oh yes, and the little guide she provides is great; we enjoyed some of the food recommendations (book where possible as Galway is super popular!). Great city, great accommodation, great stay.

Rockfield Cottage
Loved staying at Fauve’s place, the cottage near Kinvara. Housed my wife and I, our two kids, and my parents. On a secluded coastal/marsh drive off Galway Bay, it’s peaceful and quiet. The house is just as beautiful as the photos. Fauve knows how to decorate - it’s like a showroom inside. Comfy beds, quiet surroundings, huge yard space for the kids to play. The Travellers Inn is just down the street to grab a pint! Don’t hesitate booking this place, it was awesome.

Dolphin Beach Lodge
House is beautiful and very comfortable! All the amenities we need and super clean. The view and surrounding scenery are amazing. We walked 3 1/2 miles to town on Sky road each morning and saw donkeys, Connemara ponies, jack rabbits and pheasants. Wonderful restaurants in town. Great hike up Diamond Hill in nearby National Park and swam in ocean at beautiful Dog’s beach. Amazing place for a relaxing and fun vacation!

Westwinds great location near to city & by the sea
Super hôte avec d’excellent conseils pour visiter et un petit déjeuner au top! Très bien situé proche du centre ville et face à la mer SUPER!

Beautiful spacious Farmhouse with stunning views
Top notch experience. Max was very easy to communicate with and answered immediately with the lone question I had. The beds and bedrooms were very comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped with gear, and the outdoor area really made it a special stay. The surrounding area was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. 3 minute walk to a art gallery/cafe, 4 to the beach, 5 to a restaurant/bar. If this place is available don't screw around, just book it.

Galway City Centre Harbour Views
Great home and location. The home was clean and spacious. Pamela provided clear instructions for check in and was very responsive and accommodating.
