Centrally located to town, actually in town, and the staff was just terrific. Nice stop at halfway point on the Ring of Kerry. Central store right at the back of the hotel and ice cream shop also. Breakfast was by order, limited but not a buffet. There is a grass courtyard outside with tables and chairs where you can order food and drinks just about all day long, the view is of the ocean and just stunning. The place gets hopping on the weekends so go early if you want outside table. The food is exceptional and plentiful. Calamari is just right. The staff works hard all day long with the tables inside and out, making sure everyone is getting what they want. Kudos to the Staff. Hit the Fishermans Bar for a nightcap, staff friendly and great fun.

Marie greeted us on arrival and went above and beyond. Provided eggs and bread for us to cook for our breakfasts. Short walk to spectacular Cliffs of Kerry and free passes for us. Not only friendly cat and dogs but got to pat and hold baby lamb. We had a great time here

We had excellent communication from Marie. We were greeted on arrival and provided with bread, eggs and milk for our stay. The location was super, a short walk to Portmagee and we were given a voucher to the local cliffs! Lovely apartment and the donkeys on site were great!! I would highly recommend for a trip to Portmagee!

The room was very large, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent and dinner at the restaurant was very good. The location is right at the marina where we were taking a boat tour in the morning.

Great, clean stay, perfect location to see the Kerry Cliffs and explore the Rong of Kerry / Skellig Ring. We booked a Skellig Michael landing tour, and this place was very close to the pier. Unfortunately, due to a huge sea swell, our tour was canceled. However, we were able to south Kerry due to the ideal location.

    The main village is centred around the church and Tigh Rosie’s where the atmosphere is lovely to enjoy a drink, as well as a traditional music session on Tuesday nights. Down near the bay and beach are great facilities for families with toilets, cafe Cois trà (just remember it’s closed Monday/Tuesday) and don’t forget to call in on Sunday for the craft fair. Cable O’Learys is a lovely bar that also serves food with amazing views of the bay and brilliant for families with teenager’s with snooker tables , dart boards.

    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

    Stayed in early May. Plenty of space for a big family or group of friends traveling together (multiple bathrooms appreciated), while still having a warm and cozy ambiance. Good kitchen and dining area to be able to enjoy meals at home. Quiet but practical location for exploring Skellig ring and the ring of Kerry.

    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.
