    The cottage that we stayed in was brilliant, but the time of year the weather was not great. We still enjoyed our stay. I always wanted to stay on Valentia Island. We did feel like we lived like the people did over one hundred years ago. They had it much harder time than what we experienced. So we had a great time and I would come back again some day . I say anyone that comes too Valentia, will have a great time, staying at Cuil Cottage, all the best.

    Not very professional.rude comments which being g in ireland I suppose to understand d.i can take a joke but there is a line that you do not cross when you own a hotel or anything else.no lock on doors.asked for our eggs to be cooked soft.came out almost hard boiled.rang to tell them how disappointed I was and they hanged up on me.not the way to run a business.would have expected that kind of service in a cheap motel

    Not a large island it’s easy to travel around.

    Not a large island it’s easy to travel around. There are some stunning views and superb coves and beaches. It’s easy to access by either bridge or 5 minute ferry crossing. Light pollution from where we were on the north west of the island was virtually nil, so a perfect spot for stargazers. We would love to go back as our day trip and overnight stay was just too short. My only tip would be to buy wine/alcohol at a supermarket before getting into the island as the local shop in Knightstown doesn’t sell alcohol. 👍

    Beautiful area of Kerry.

    Beautiful area of Kerry. Stayed here to see the stars but it was cloudy every night, would be spectacular otherwise. Wonderful swimming spot at Glanleam beach. Within driving distance to amazing beaches and scenery with lots of things to do. Valentina Bee Beds was a fun experience. Highly recommend the Sneem seaweed baths which is a drive from the island.

    Valentia is a lovely island but I would rank the royal valentia hotel as a one star hotel. It did not reach the 41/2 star rating it has been given in any way. Breakfast/ dinner is served in the bar area. Very limited menu, lipstick stain on the teacup, rotten pool table area, grotty public toilet area near the bar, dingy reception area, verywhole hotel needs a complete upgrade.

    Get a map of Valentia Island (there is one available in the Skellig experience centre) and go to all the interesting places. The cliffs, the lighthouse, St. Brendan's well, there is quite a lot to explore on the island. The Royal Hotel in Knightstown has good food which can also be enjoyed outside. The island has a very interesting history of the transatlantic telegraph cable. Magnificent views from the top of the mountain with a lot of information on the old Irish stories of Fionn Mac Cumhail.

    The location is to die for - absolutely beautiful, and isolated from the crowds. The B&B itself is bright, clean, has a veranda directly overlooking the bay, and is tastefully decorated with everything from funky (in a good way), cool fine art, Old maps, historic photos and old maps. The owner was very friendly and helpful, serving tea on the veranda (!) and making a reservation for us at the local restaurant. First class service!

    John and his dog Snow are two wonderful hosts, always ready to have a chat with some coffee or tea and always suggesting amazing places to visit! We enjoyed our stay very much, the calmness of Valentia island and its views are perfect for some relax and also it’s very close to the most beautiful spots on the Ring of Kerry, like Kerry cliffs. We thank you a lot and would totally recommend Harbor View to anybody!

    The cottage was exceptionally clean and the host, Frances, was very welcoming. The location was great, a short walk or drive to Portmagee where there were a couple of shops and pubs with great food. The proximity to Kerry Cliffs and to the drive to Ballinskellig was beautiful. The outdoor space was nice, we sat out for a meal and coffee and also watched the full moon rise over the opposite hill.

    Absolutely amazing place! The cottage is well equipped, very functional kitchen. The whole place is very welcoming. The sea view guaranteed. Place it's clean and warm. It's a short walk to the village where you can grab a dinner or a drink in the hotel. The communication with the host was very good, they gave us some tips and recommendations. Self check in, very easy instruction.

    This place is incredible. Very well organized, clean kitchen, place to park your car and close to many tourist attractions around. The trailer where we stayed was very cozy and cute, as are the outdoor area and gardens. The staff lady was so nice and very welcomed, she explained us everything and gave us a map showing what to do around. I definitely would recommend this place!

    Attractive home. Room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable. The host (Eileen) was tremendous friendly, welcoming, and tremendously helpful. Breakfast was excellent! House is on beautiful Valentia Island, with views of the water. Very close to Portmagee and the Skellig boats. We will definitely stay here again.

    Very conveniently placed, very friendly staff and very helpful in offering up ideas for places to visit and telling us how to get to Portmagee to get our boat to Skellig Michael. The hotel is right in front of the island so you have lovely views of the Kerry mainland, piers and historical monuments.

    Amazing breakfast and such a friendly family - normally prefer hotels to B&Bs but we will be back to this B&B for sure. Just the right level of friendliness, helpfulness and warmth. Couldn't recommend this B&B highly enough!
