Set in Portmagee and only 2.2 km from Skellig Experience Centre, Atlantic Sunset offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. The property features mountain and river views, and is 17 km from O'Connell Memorial Church. The guest house has family rooms.

Having some cereal, yoghurt and fresh milk was a big bonus as a lot of guests may be taking an early boat trip. Being able to watch a movie on Netflix was great as it was a blustery night.

    The room was clean and quaint and had everything we could possibly need. We cooked in the studio apartment and it had all utensils and appliances needed. The location is quiet and remote but the town of Portmagee is only a short drive in. It is worth the trip alone for the jacuzzi and sauna that Paula provides on site with the beautiful views of Valentia Island. A beautiful home.

    We had just a great time. The rooms are big, bright, clean and tidy. We had a huge modern bathroom too. Martin and Leonie are lovely people and great hosts. Highlights are the cute animals. We'll be definitely come back and recommend this accommodation to everyone who wants to be in a quiet and peaceful place and visit the Ring of Kerry. It's only short drive to Valencia Island. Martin and Leonie will give recommendations for what to see and visit. Thank you for having us in your house. Tanja, Meike and Denise

    Tina is amazing host. We mixed up our boat departure times and realized in the morning we have no time for breakfast. She gave us a quick cereal with fresh fruit and gave us stuff to pack few sandwiches to go. The room was spacious and lovely, the bed was so comfy and the views from the guesthouse are truly stunning. I would stay there again anytime.
