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.

Overlooking Portmagee’s busy harbour, The Moorings Guesthouse is just a 30-second walk from the pier, offering elegant rooms with marble bathrooms. Some rooms feature luxurious hot tubs and king-size beds.

The staff were very kind and helpful. Our boat tour around the islands was cancelled but they managed to get us tickets for the landing tour which was even better. We had to extend our stay at the last minute but that wasn't a problem at all and we even got a better room for the same price.

In picturesque Ballinskelligs, the 19th-century Old School House B&B is nestled between sandy beaches and stunning mountains on the Wild Atlantic Way. This guest house serves home cooked breakfasts, which are prepared using fresh, local ingredients.

Visiting SW Ireland? Stay here. You will not be disappointed. Our hosts Lillian and Dominick are some of the most lovely people we’ve ever met. We arrived as guests and left three days later as friends. Singing songs and telling stories every night of our stay was such a highlight and made our trip exponentially more enjoyable. I truly hope we are able to enjoy their company again very soon.

    Great value for money at this property, you have everything you need in the apartment. Enough privacy from other guests and host. Great location on the kerry coast. Option of paying for use of sauna and hot tub would highly recommend as you look out on the water.

    An exceptional place, perfect location and a perfect view. The house is nicely renovated with a separate area for the guests. We had the room with sea-view which made the stay even better. Quiet place, close to Portmagee for our trip to Skellig. Clean rooms, hosts which helped with our questions (we even could get a charger for our Canon camera which we forgot at home - a one out of a million luck chance!! :-) ). Nice breakfast options in the dining area of the hosts - with view to the sea. I can only fully recomend.

    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
