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.

This gorgeously furnished, delightful B&B will embrace you like a warm hug. Nestled in the spectacular Ring of Kerry in the seaside town of Waterville (charming and idyllic in its own right), our beautiful room overlooking the ocean was exceptionally comfortable, clean, cosy and thoughtfully equipped. Thank you to our lovely, hospitable hosts for making our stay such a highlight; we didn't want to leave.

If I could give this location an 11/10, I would. Ann and her son were SO accommodating and just absolutely lovely people. Communication was outstanding and, when we arrived, she had a fantastic room waiting for us. The location is magical - quiet, serene, and everything you expect an Irish countryside to deliver. While we didn't have the time to stay for brekkie, I can only anticipate it was nothing short of fantastic. Would DEFINITELY book in again.

Great location at the end of the peninsula. Close to sights on the Kerry coast and Valencia island. Hosts were amazing. Very welcoming and helped us understand local sites and what to see. Made our group of 9 feel like family. Eating at OhMaryLoo is a MUST. Incredible food.

The place is wonderful. It's in the middle of a stunningly beautiful garden. Michael lives nearby but it feels private. I didn't see him after I checked in. Not a lot of windows inside but it gets some light in the morning anyway since it's on top of an exposed hill. There are outside sitting terraces all around, including a secluded one in the back. Views are amazing. Everything was very thoughtfully prepared, including cut flowers from the garden. Highly recommend.

    Waterville is a quiet coastal town with good beachfront walks, nice restaurants and spectacular views. We ate in the Butlers arms hotel pub and had deliciously cooked fish and chips. Took a lovely seafront walk and stopped for a drink in the popular Lobster bar and restaurant where the food looked and smelled delicious, noted for next time. Waterville was ideal for a one night stay to get away from it all or as a quiet stop when touring the ring of Kerry.

    Great property , very peaceful and remote , short drive to shops/beach /river . All facilities are provided , very comfortable. Only real gripe would be lack of choice /channels on TV , could do with having Netflix or something ( especially if you have children to keep entertained!! 😜) over all , very happy with the property and would happily stay there again .

    Waterville is a pretty little village in kerry dark sky reserve and close to kerry cliffs. Friendly people but not a lot to do. Excellent guinness beef stew at Dooley's. Would not recommend Darc apartments. - 3rd bedroom was like a closet and very uncomfortable cot to sleep on. 2 bathrooms- one toilet was out of order and no water pressure in either shower. Could have been cleaner - used bars of soap in bathrooms..Tv not hooked up and other than helping us find the unit , which was poorly marked- owner of unit did not respond to inquiries from us regarding plumbing, tv etc. Location was convenient

    It was beautiful!!! Great location and service and food! Lovely clean room & new en suite. Room has ocean front view and you can fall asleep looking at the stars! There is also a lounge to watch the sunset! You really need a car for Waterville to get to Smuggler’s Inn.
