I have a long association with the hotel since before our wedding reception there over fifty years ago. We were both born in East Cork and Garryvoe was a frequent haunt. It is always good to revisit and revive the memories of "Happy Days".
IrelandGreat hotel for a family stay. Staff so friendly and welcoming. Pool is a hidden gem
IrelandThe staff at this hotel are so professional and considerate . Especially the front of house staff on the day of my check in and the breakfast staff.
BelgiumGorgeous property with marvelous views. Very luxurious room. Bistro was good. Great off season rate through Booking!
United States of AmericaThis is a true 4 star hotel, also known for its wedding venue and top-notch restaurant. The location across from the Garryvoe beach offers a peaceful and relaxing setting with superb views. Additionally, there is an excellent fitness center on site, with a lovely pool and well-equipped gym. We opted for the sea view room – well worth the extra. The décor is quite nice (although a little too modern) and there was plenty of room, a large bathroom and plenty of other nice amenities. Pro’s • Great waterfront location • Excellent facilities – especially the fitness center • Very nice rooms and amenities • Highly rated restaurant
United States of Americadidn't have breakfast, Location excellent......
IrelandA hidden gem, gorgeous lounge area for residents. We got a superior room with a sea view. It was gorgeous and the sea view was stunning. The Bistro has the nicest shrimp I have ever tasted!!!
IrelandStaff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Haven't experienced anything like it. Few managers going around bossing and stressing but staff were brill.
IrelandGarryvoe is a lovely hotel, I loved the location by the beach. The rooms are large and comfortable, you can completely open the windows which was great in the heatwave, fans were available to cool down also. The staff were friendly and helpful. It is one of the nicest hotel pools I’ve seen with a long pool for lengths and the majority of the pool a good depth for kids, an outdoor hot tub and a little aqua jog pool. I lovely the decor and choice of books in the bar, it was a very relaxing and comfortable space. Parking was plentiful.
IrelandLovely by the sea, big rooms, gorgeous decor, nice food
