Very This was an amazing place. The room was comfortable. The view from our room was SPECTACULAR. The pool was big, clean and modern with sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. Breakfast buffet was complete with gluten free options and plant milk was available upon request. JOHN is the MAN. He welcomes you, keeps the restaurant and reception going, and even gave us a ride to Kinsale in hotel van. We would definitely go again. 👍

The bar tenders were very friendly and shared some tips about our pubs and bars in Dublin. The property was gorgeous! Hikes on property show you an old stone wall, an abandoned house, and a private beach.

This hotel is quite a distance from the center of the city. However, the facility is quite nice including the rooms and restaurant. We had dinner in the restaurant and were impressed by the capable and attentive staff. The dinner was good and the breakfast the following morning was adequate.

Beautiful location, comfortable room, friendly and accommodating staff. There was a wedding taking place when we arrived, right in reception next to check in which made it awkward to use shared space. Food was good, but service was slow

Beautiful resort like hotel just outside kinsale. While you have to drive to get to town, this is fairly easy to do. The views and service are great. Rooms are very nice. The gym and pool facilities are very nice, though open to the public (swim lessons etc).

Property was beautiful, staff was lovely, room was average (floor/ tiles in the bathroom were loose) flashing in the shower was in need of repair. Food, not so great for a hotel that is supposed to be a superior stay.
