It’s in a wonderful location, the views are stunning. The room was very nicely appointed and it was the most comfortable bed I have slept in here in Ireland. Most of the staff was so gracious, and Brid at the front desk went above and beyond.

Providing a garden, Seagull Cottage B&B offers accommodations in Portmagee.

Nice location and great facilities. The room had everything we could need. We had a wonderful stay.

Overlooking Portmagee’s busy harbor, The Moorings Guest house is just a 30-second walk from the pier, offering elegant rooms with marble bathrooms.

We arrived a bit after checkout time (about 30 minutes to an hour). We had notified ahead of time, and they said that it would be fine. What we found when we arrived is that both reception and the person in charge of the kitchen were waiting for us past hours. Reception checked us in, while being super kind and understanding. We had arrived about 2 minutes after the kitchen was closed, but the person in charge of the kitchen allowed us to settle in a minute, and ushered us to the restaurant area and made sure we could still get food. Super kind and understanding from the people who are handling the day to day, and after a difficult drive, super appreciated.

The room was exactly as described. Big and comfy beds. Clean and large bathroom, a very tasty breakfast, and easy to find. We were welcomed upon arrival and enjoyed our stay.

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.

It was an amazing location on the Slea Head drive near beehuts. Feeding the lambs was great, seeing the tails twirl! Wonderful!
