Recommended by a friend and we don’t know why won’t recommend onwards. A stellar property in nature’s lap, stunning views and good food. Great for families, couples alike with perhaps one of the most thermal suite options anywhere in Ireland.

Better than expected and great value. Hotel staff were wonderful, pleasant and helpful. Not stuffy at all. Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Great dining service. Purchase breakfast along with your stay....it's delicious and plentiful. Great spa, saunas, pool and infinity pool, but book massage, etc., well in advance. Do try the kayaking with Noel, and do take the nature and sky walks with Vincent.

Absolutely amazing. Best place I’ve EVER stayed. And I mean that. The views were spectacular. And staff was amazing. I got room 315 and it was the best room I could have gotten! It was perfect. And the spa and pool amenities are great. Let’s not forget the breathtaking 360 view of the area. And in a great spot on the ring of Kerry!

During our two week stay in Ireland, we spent one night here, and this is by far one of the best places. Spa and pool facilities were 2nd to none and the restaurants provided great food and fantastic service. There are walking paths around the large facility as well. Would go back given the opportunity !
