Waterville is a pretty little village in kerry dark sky...
Waterville is a pretty little village in kerry dark sky reserve and close to kerry cliffs. Friendly people but not a lot to do. Excellent guinness beef stew at Dooley's. Would not recommend Darc apartments. - 3rd bedroom was like a closet and very uncomfortable cot to sleep on. 2 bathrooms- one toilet was out of order and no water pressure in either shower. Could have been cleaner - used bars of soap in bathrooms..Tv not hooked up and other than helping us find the unit , which was poorly marked- owner of unit did not respond to inquiries from us regarding plumbing, tv etc. Location was convenientAAnonymous - 10Scored 10

It was beautiful!!! Great location and service and food! Lovely clean room & new en suite. Room has ocean front view and you can fall asleep looking at the stars! There is also a lounge to watch the sunset! You really need a car for Waterville to get to Smuggler’s Inn.AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

I thought people in Waterville very friendly and helpful. The promenade is a lovely opportunity for a walk along the sea! Interesting to read about Mick O'Dwyer and Charley Chaplin linked to this small seaside town! The scenery around Waterville is spectacular.

More lively than we thought it would be in the dead of winter. It's a nice clean, well-kept town in an outstanding location by the sea. The mountains are right beside you. Plenty of places to explore.PaulUnited States of America

- From $204.58 per night9.2Scored 9.2WonderfulRated wonderful· 382 reviewsThe location is absolutely stunning. It is right on the beach with fantastic views. We went for a walk at suntan was unforgettable. The hotel itself is very cosy and cute with great atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and accommodation. I would also highly recommend the restaurant. The food at dinner was great! Breakfast was also lovely. Takeaway lunch was somewhat disappointing, but not a deal-breaker. We have noted it down for our next trip and will recommend to friends!YanaUnited Kingdom
- 8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 111 reviewsThe room was perfect, immaculate and comfortable. Beautiful view of the lake. The hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating. Location is great, Waterville has plenty of nice bars and restaurants, and it's a short drive south to beautiful Caherdaniel/Derrynane beach or North to Valentia Island/ Skellig ring/ Cahershiveen or Kells. Great value for money. Fishing is good on the lake. Even with little experience on a hot day, I caught a fish within 20 minutes of casting.

ShannonUnited States of America - From $274.57 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 293 reviewsThe location of the hotel is excellent - within walking distance to the village. There is a lovely bayside walking path in front of the hotel, and the views of the bay are spectacular. The breakfast was very good, but could have used more cold options, i.e. cereals, yogurt, and fruits. The rooms were large with wonderful 3-directional views from floor to ceiling windows in the little sitting area. The history of Butler Arms is fascinating.Margaret & Robert TysonUnited States of America
- 9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 19 reviewsHad a remote country feel, plenty of room for a family or a few couples. The mountain drive through the middle of The Ring of Kerry was gorgeous. We got takeout in the town (everything closes early off season so make sure you go before 4pm) Host left plenty of wood for a fire in the wood stove, but no matches, so if its winter make sure to bring some as the night was stormy and it was chilly. Great house would stay again.
melanieUnited States of America - 8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 5 reviewsQuite enjoyable especially in case you are bored by 4-star hotels which all look the same, after all. Well refurbished. In case you are in doubt (no photos) there is indeed a (small) toilet and shower in the boat, and more in the garden. Better to get instructions about how to find the place (it's in the back yard, you can see it from the satellite view on google maps as a light blue thing)
DanieleItaly - 9.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 5 reviewsComfortable and spacious cottage has everything you need for a longer self-catering stay.
