Atlantic Way Apartment
The hosts were so accommodating and super sweet. There is everything you need at home; especially a washer and dryer are available. Right outside the front door a beach and it is very centrally located on the Wild Atlantik Way, from which you can get everywhere centrally. Very nice private, quiet and in a fantastic location for hiking excursions and into the city. Everything is very very beautiful in mint tones. On Sunday, the host even actively asked me if she could bring me something from shopping and when I checked in late, you still came to explain the Wi-Fi. Very friendly :)

Westend Apartment, Galway City
Padraic’s place was the perfect location in the heart of West End, Galway. He was an excellent host who was very responsive and flexible to my needs. The unit was a great 3 bedroom that had all you needed to a visit to this lovely city. I highly recommend it and will definitely be returning.

Seaview apartment in Louisburgh
Margaret was very welcoming and easy to communicate with. Fresh eggs, teabags and condiments were a nice touch. The location was few minutes cycle from beaches and fishing, it was a relaxing chilled out stay and we loved when Toby the dog visited. Beautiful views of the islands from the window. Thanks

Stunning seaview apartment in Galway.
We loved our stay at this spacious and comfortable Salthill apartment. The views of Galway Bay are amazing and being just a 20-minute walk to the lively Latin Quarter made it the perfect location for exploring. The salthill neighborhood going west should. It be overlooked. Great food, traditional pub with live music and the best movie theater I’ve ever been to! The apartment was spotless and well-equipped, with the rare bonus of three en-suite full bathrooms. Gated underground parking and easy street parking added extra convenience. A fantastic home base for exploring Galway!

The Westend Hideaway #2 - Sleeps 4
It’s very nice and tidy place. Well worth the money. The host was very responsive, friendly and descriptive in terms of how to access etc. It’s dead in the middle of town and perfect for exploring

Where the city meets the sea (Newly Renovated)
This apartment was perfectly located to walk to Center city Galway and Salt Hill, but quiet and slightly removed. Check in and out was very simple. We hope to stay here again!

The Rest @ Sea
Great place to stay everything you need for a stay away

Carraroe apartment
A great place, local to all we required. Lovely clean beds, bathroom etc.
House rentals with beach access

Newly refurbished 4 bedroom house. Prime location.
Wonderful accommodations-great location Even though we only needed 2 of the 4 bedrooms-we appreciated the layout and comfort. We have been traveling through Ireland for 7 days, it was great to have the washer-dryer available. Thanks Gillian-will definitely recommend to our friends and family

Heart of Galway Hideaway
We had a great time in Galway. The apartment was within walking distance to downtown. We parked our car in the driveway and didn’t move it again until we checked out. The place was clean and cozy. Dolly was a fantastic host.

Stunning Cottage on the Waters Edge
Had a fantastic stay here. The cottage and the area were absolutely lovely and J was so helpful when we’re checking in- he recommended some wonderful hikes and places to eat!

Lakeshore Panoramic View,Spacious,Connemara Galway
Rhona is really kind. She is very nice and very helpful. The house is great, clean, quiet. We appreciated everything. If we go back to Ireland, we will probably go back there.

Spiddal, near Galway. On the Wild Atlantic Way.
We absolutely loved being able to call this place home during our visit to Ireland. Sheila and Redmond were very responsive and friendly in making sure we had everything we needed and more. The location was beautiful and conveniently walkable to the pier, shops and pubs. Our girls especially loved the little playroom - perfect for our family trip!! We’ll definitely be back!

Seafront Cottage in Kinvara village
Our family had a fantastic week long stay . The house was the perfect size for family and our kids settled in quickly to the house. It was well equipped and we felt right at home. The location is amazing. We explored the town and took day trips to see castles, Abbeys, Burren Park, the Aran islands, Kilkee cliffs/cliffs of Moher, and Galway. We enjoyed exploring local restaurants as well. There is so much more close by to explore next time! Thank you for a great stay.

Bride's House, Oatquarter, Ennismore
We had the best time at Sandra's place - the location was perfect for our needs: not too close to busy Kilronan, but still close enough to walk or cycle there for a bite to eat. Having all main sightseeing opportunities (Kilmurvey beach, Poll na bPéist and Dún Aonghasa in walking and cycling distance) was an additional advantage. Being woken up by the cuckoo calling was simply wonderful! We are definitely coming back! Thanks for having us, Sandra.

Red Island House, on the shore of Lough Mask
We had a great time in Paddy's very spacious and beautiful house at the lough. We are city dwellers and this was an opportunity for us and the kids (10 and 14) to do something very different. The house is about 3k down a lane which is easy to navigate with a normal car, we had a Duster and that was a plus. From a city dwellers point of view you have to get used to being out in the sticks and everything is a bit of a chore. Shopping, getting around, you are in a pretty remote spot. But that is also the advantage. You are already there. You are in the beauty spot. You can just walk up and down the lane and enjoy the views, the sheep and the mountains. You don't have to go anywhere to see something. It is all around you. Westport is a good place to go to stock up. Paddy was great to communicate with and very pleasant and easy going. If you know your way around fish and loughs and water sports you will get a real kick out of this, we loved it. Great place. Thanks Paddy.

Quay-side luxury sea-view apartment, Kinvara
Fiona was very responsive. Her place was so beautiful and felt very homey. I loved the location. Looking out over the ocean was incredible. It was also an easy walk into town. Kinvara is enchanting. You’d be lucky to stay here.

Seaview modern apartment
had a really good time. salthill is right on the see so beautiful views and the view from the living room in the apartment is spectacular. lots of local pubs dotted around. the apartment was brilliant. 2 good sized bedrooms, one of them en suite. kitchen is a decent size and had everything you need to cook up some food. sitting room was lovely with two big recliner sofas and beautiful vistas. walkable into the city centre if you're a decent walker, it's about 2km and perfectly flat. if you're not or you're with someone who isn't a walker there is a bus just round the corner that takes about 5 mins and is fairly regular. car parking around the area is free but very busy so having a dedicated parking space was great.

Urban retreat close to all Galway has to offer
This apartment is very comfortable and within walking distance from Salthill, with its beautiful promenade and charming restaurants and pubs. Guests without a car can catch a bus into Galway at a stop across the street. My husband and I enjoyed Galway’s lively pub and restaurant scene and historical sites and also got to see the gorgeous coast and even see a sheep-herding demonstration by taking a couple of bus tours (through Lally Tours). We had a lovely stay.

Ocean Breeze Lodge Apartment (Brand New)
Very comfortable and clean place. Parking is available in the property and Allen was very helpful and easy to communicate. Would recommend any time

Cosy studio apartment
Fantastic stay here, this is a very comfortable unit with plenty of space and just a short drive from Galway. The homemade scones were a very welcome surprise, and we enjoyed our time here. Would recommend.

Atlantic Retreat Luxury Apartment 1 w/Burren Views
Great layout for our family and cannot say enough about the comfort of all the beds. Allowed all of us to have great nights sleep after long days exploring. Only challenge was getting in; as the lock box was broken. Quiet street and easy to walk to the beach. And What an added bonus: sheep and little lambs right across the fence!! Delightful.

Luxury Home next to the Ocean with Jacuzzi Bath
Beautiful Apartment close to the beach, very clean and comfortable

Kathleen's On the Wild Atlantic Way Car Parking
Perfect location if you want to easily reach Galway. Pauline paid great attention to every detail, and the apartment was very clean. Strongly recommended!
