    So much to see of historic nature and the beauty of the landscape breathtaking, from the Skelligs to cliff walks to the beauty of the blue flag beaches in the area. Food lovers paradise. Favourite restaurant is Driftwood, just 10 minute drive from Ballinskelligs. Cois Trá Café with a stroll down to the beach a must.

    The staff and guests were very open an hospitable in the Hostel before, during and after the trip. We were disappointed not to get to the islands because of the weather but there was so much else to se and do in the area that we had plenty of alternatives. There was terrific scenery to see no matter what road we took for a walk in the area and we left knowing we needed to stay a lot longer ! The beach café close by was a novel experience for us.

    A beautifully quiet village with a lovely safe beach for swimming, and other watersports, lots of great walks, and has a beautiful backdrop of mountains. It has one small shop only and one pub. There is an arts centre with coffee shop but not open consistently. It's a few miles to Cahirciveen or Waterville to find restaurants and theres a Supervalue supermarket in Cahirciveen. The skies at night are magnificent due to lack of light pollution

    There is a lot to see, so get on your bike and explore the entire area. When you finished biking go for a hot Chocolate at the chocolate factory. Otherwise just chill and have a good rest. There is a good bit of history in the area, you can also connect with something positive and beautiful on the spiritual side!

    Ballinskelligs has a beautiful little artisan chocolate factory, in which you can see the chocolate being produced and you can taste all of their handmade chocolates, which are delicious! Staff are very friendly and more than happy to help.

    Good beach walk, ruined abbey to visit (free), Sunday morning craft and food market. Pub had gone downhill since last visit and was not yet doing food. Nor were the take away places opposite open in mid-June. There is one well equipped shop, but it closed around 6pm and one cafe that I did not get a chance to visit. A place for people who like the simple life!

    Setting is beautiful and peaceful. The views from the sunroom are spectacular of the Irish countryside and you can see St. Finian's Bay and Skellig Michael. Great skellig ring location. We got to help herd sheep and watch shearing! Host Michael was very quick to respond to our requests and went above and beyond to resolve minor problems. The house is well equipped and accommodated 5 adults well. The wood burning stove worked well and was pleasant to use when the Summer Irish weather turned cooler.

    Beautiful contemporary B&B with gorgeous woodwork and tile throughout. The owners, Mary and Christie were warm and friendly. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. Short walk to the beautiful beach and historic ruins. We enjoyed a relaxing two evenings here as we toured the Ring of Kerry. Don't miss a tour of Skellig Michael (we left from nearby Portmagee marina). Highly recommend Seaside B&B and hope to return one day. Thank you Mary & Christie!

    Location on the Ring of Kerry for us was good in respect of travelling half way round, but to get to somewhere to get an evening meal was some distance away. The breakfast was good and tasty, I had an Irish breakfast and my wife had the pancakes and fruit which were very good. The beds were comfortable which for us is important. The host Dom was friendly and was a good host.

    Very nice apartment on the corner with big green area on the side. Lovely living room with big fireplace and open kitchen plus dining area. Two very comfortable bedrooms. Friendly and helpful host. Beautiful beach is only 3 min drive from the apartment. Is good to do some shopping before your stay because nearest shop is long distance from the place (10 min drive).

    The kitchen had room for three people to cook simultaneously, and amenities to accommodate (pans, pots, flatware, dinnerware). The dining area was on the small side, but large enough to have four or five families (in normal times). Pleasant decor, decent quality as well. Good hostel setup.

    The Old Schoolhouse is a wonderful place. Dominick is so welcoming and knowledgeable about the locality. He allowed guests bring take away food back to eat it for their dinner. The vibe is very cool, almost like a hostel. I will definitely like to stay here again.

    Comfortable and close to Ring of Kerry. Our favorite part was talking to Dominic. He told us some great stories and played us a song he wrote. His Wife Lillian was a great Chef and her pancakes were lovely. We hope to be back someday. Rock-n-roll <3 Reneé & Bryan

    Breakfast was the right size and kids had pancakes which they loved. Kerry is a beautiful county and although the b&b is remote it’s not to far from anything.
