Beachfront vacation rentals in Bantry Bay

Gabriel's place is fantastic. I'm sure alot of hard work went into getting it to such a lovely standard. We were honored to stay there and would recommend to anyone. Thanks Gabriel. Steve & Joanna

Absolutely wonderful place with a beautiful garden. It is right on the shoreline and I loved grabbing the chance to pop in for a swim whenever I felt like it. Stephanie was really friendly and helpful. It is a great base for exploring the area and we loved coming back in the evenings to a little oasis of peace.

Great spacious house with everything you might need and beautiful views . Nice cliff walk to Warren beach . Excellent recommendation for restaurant from Paul .

Anne & Gerry's place is an absolute gem. Relax in the garden, while watching the ebb & flow of the tidal estuary. Enjoy the antics of the Egrets, Heron, and Hooded Crow who are in splendid abundance. Curl up in front of the fire with a good book and a glass of the good stuff. Pop into Skibbereen or Clonakilty if you want to stretch your legs. Or just enjoy the afternoon sun with a pint at Nolan's (ask Dennis about his on-going "battle" with the local Rooks and Jackdaws). Anne & Gerry's is a wonderful place to slow things down, and focus on Nature and simplicity. You will sleep beautiful sleeps at Lazy Acre, and awake to days of delicious indolence.

Great place to visit has it all

Beautiful house in a stunning location right beside the pier on Sherkin Island. Excellent facilities in the house and really comfortable.

What a lovely serene place located on the shores of the peninsula with beautiful scenery, the perfect place for exploring the Beara peninsula. Thank you Rose for your warm welcome and hospitality!

I had an amazing week here. The location is perfect -it's a beautiful wild part of Kerry with stunning scenery and lots of beaches. Michelle's place is located right on the beach in Ballinskelligs - you just walk across the garden and down some steps. There's a café about 10 minutes walk along the beach where I got my coffee every morning. Reenroe beach nearby is also beautiful for a longer walk. The house itself is so lovely, it's clean and comfortable with lots of beach themed decor. The kitchen is well equipped and the living area has comfy sofas and a big TV. The bed I slept in was like a big soft hug and I fell asleep to the sound of the waves every night. Definitely a holiday to remember! Thanks Michelle.

We loved our stay here, it was perfect for the kiddo's - they were so entertained by the playroom, sheep and sandpit. It was clean, spacious and had everything we needed from a stair gate to cot and highchair. our only note is that you will probably rely on your car at this location as it is a long way for little kids to walk to the beach / for local food. This was not an issue for us however but may be for someone else.

Perfect accommodation in the perfect place - just wish I could give more than 5 stars!!! Stunning place to stay, stunning location, stunning area - we are already planning our return visit for next year. Every room is perfect and comfortable, superbly stacked kitchen and an amazing garden - the seals popped up to say hello ever morning!!! Genuinely brilliant, wouldn't hesitate to recommend and like I said, we will be back next year!!!

What makes Donal and Jessica's place so special is it's beautiful at the beginning of the spectacular Slea Head Drive and the view from its picture windows. It is well proportioned and appointed. It suits a family or group of friends travelling together. The eat-in kitchen is fabulous. As the weather was changeable the house's heating operated automatically in the evenings which was a kind touch, as was the provision of sanitary products in the bathroom. The bedrooms were generous and comfortable.

After a very long drive, we were happy to find that Ann had fresh food, cheese and wine ready for us. A warm welcome indeed. Questions were almost immediatly answered. A warm recommendation!

Kells Bay is small and beautiful and the view from Agnes's house was stunning. It's a roomy house and had everything we needed. Agnes ws available whenever we needed to chat and she checked in on us too. Fanradtic spot. Loved it. The local area is great too. A great base for seeing Kerry.

Went for the weekend to climb carrauntoohil the house was a half hour drive from the start of it . Views were amazing . House was spotless clean , beds were comfy and perfectly clean nothing was out of place couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay for the weekend . Only a few mins drive from the local town with plenty in it for food and drink . Would definitely stay again

Our stay at 'Turk Head', was more than we could have hoped for. The location of the property is perfect, if you are looking for a peaceful stay, with incredible wildlife and sea views on the door step. We cooked in the flat for 6 nights and didnt feel short on anything. In fact, Angie included lots of little extras, which didnt go un-noticed. The bed is super comfy and we slept perfectly. After busy days out exploring, then a pint on the way back at the local 'Minihans Pub', arriving home to that peaceful view, is something else. Angie was really friendly and made some great recommendations, we will definitely be back! Thankyou!

Geraldine and Inch View were exactly as advertised and exactly what we needed for our family trip in Ireland. The warm and friendly house was a perfect base for us from which to visit Ring of Kerry, Gap of Dunloe, and Dingle Peninsula/ Slea Head Drive. Killorglin (about 10 minutes away) had all the supplies we needed and the house's large family-style kitchen became the center of our evenings for dinners and games. The house reminds you of your parents' (maybe grandparents'?) home and hugs you right away. Comfortable beds, lots of towels, staples provided, laundry (wow!) and a cute pub/ restaurant about 3 min. away. Oh! And yummy welcome to Inch View baked goods too! We had bad weather so couldn't take advantage, but had it been nice, we would have spent hours on the beautiful beach just across the road. Lovely place. Hope to visit again and I hope it will be soon.

Beautiful part of the country, stunning location, amazing house. All you could ask for.

We loved ever second of our stay here. Perfect for a big family/group holiday.. the house was spotless, spacious and the kitchen was equipped with everything you could possibly need. There was a gorgeous welcome basket waiting for us with bubbly, cheeses, chocolate, coffee, etc. - a very nice touch that was much appreciated! Beautiful outdoor area with brand new bbq and seats, over looking amazing views of the sea. Sitting room was very cosy with stove which was used most nights! All bedrooms were very comfortable and showers were 10/10. There was very much a luxurious feel to the place with a lot of attention to detail - like great quality towels and linen, diffusers, etc.! Location wise , 5-10 mins from ballydehob- ideal for coffees in the AM, and 10 mins from Schull with nice lunch spots and pub! We can’t wait to come back! Exceeded our expectations! Thank you Gillian!

We had two families (9 people) staying for a special occasion. Ages from 12 to 90. The ground floor bedroom with balcony is stunning in the evening. There is so much outdoor space, the kids loved the little football pitch. The location was great, walking distance to the town, the beach and pitch & putt. We had a few queries coming up to the stay and during and all were responded to. We were very lucky to have stayed here.

The photos do not do this place justice. It’s an extraordinary setting. Incredibly peaceful and stunning scenery all around. Our party had three kids under 9 and seven adults ranging from 39-83 and we all got exactly what we wanted from the stay. The kids had the beach and rocks to explore for fish and crabs, the parents had the views and peace and quiet to unwind. If you’re looking for somewhere to unwind then look no further.

We stayed in Dave’s home for 3 nights but wanted to stay forever. The home is well equipped, cosy, cool artwork and loads of records to listen to. The mature garden is stunning to relax in and look over the ocean. Down the end of the garden is steps to the beach where we spent the whole weekend swimming and kayaking - absolute heaven! We brought a kayak but there was even one for us to use at the house! It’s literally beside a lovely little pub and a few minutes walk from a restaurant (the mussels are so fresh and tasty!). We enjoyed every minute and Dave was a fantastic host. Thanks! Robin & Danny

An elegant house in a truly beautiful location. Our whole family (toddlers to grandparents) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lough Hyne. Tim, the property manager, could not have been more helpful and responsive to any requests. Missing it already and definitely would stay there again another year!

Alan and Elaine are unbelievable hosts. Trust me you get way more than what you pay for in this place. Words can’t express how awesome and majestic the view is of Lough Guitane. Two families (4 adults and 7 kids ages 5-14) stayed six nights and saw a lot of the area thanks to Alan and his awesome recommendations. Five large bedrooms give us plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of very nice and well kept washrooms, a wonderfully large kitchen and sitting areas facing the lake with gigantic floor to ceiling windows give you a great view of the lake. The kids appreciated the gaming systems in the “second” sitting room. There were plenty of toys outside to play with. The kids spent a lot of time on these outdoor toys (racing trikes and mini tractors etc). If you’re into animals, you’re in for a treat as the sheep, cows, ducks and hens were all visiting in their neighbouring pasture regularly. The kids loved checking on them and even gave them names. The water is a very short walk down to the beach (perhaps 100m) on the same property. From there you can canoe or kayak (provided by the hosts) or even swim, which we all did with regularity. I strongly recommend hiking mangerton mountain, which is a five min drive away. Laundry room, kitchen supplies, freezer, spices, there was everything we needed. What a wonderful place to stay! Highly recommend.

My family loved being here for Christmas. It is one of the most beautiful settings we’ve ever seen and so incredibly peaceful. We cooked every day and found the kitchen very well appointed for our family of five.
