Apartment rentals with beach access

Oceanfront Oasis . Free Parking
This is a modern apartment in a secure building, right on the seafront at Salthill. Nearby free public car park, so we left our car for the duration and either walked to the West End (30 mins) for entertainment, or took the 401 bus (15 mins). Lots of local eating, drinking and music venues. Lifeguard station at the beach, but we eschewed swimming this particular weekend. Very comfortable bed, sunspot with chairs on an enormous balcony, allowing privacy. Would highly recommend.

Westend Apartment, Galway City
Perfect place to stay in Galway for our family. Great location and all the amenities we needed.

The Westend Hideaway #2 - Sleeps 4
Thank you for making your place available to us. We were comfortable, enjoyed our stay and would recommend the home to anyone staying in Derry.

Lovely sea side apartment in Louisburgh
Un logement simple et authentique, bien placé et dans un site remarquable près d’un lac et de la mer. Un accueil de qualité par une hôte sympa et très amicale. Un accueil avec des œufs et un cake maison. Très chouette !

The Rest @ Sea
Great location. Walking distance to cafes and restaurants. Quiet considering it is densely residential. Off street parking. Spacious accommodation.

Sea View Apartment
Lovely little place, super cozy and had all the kitchen items needed to cook a stay in meal. Loved the close by beach, spent a good majority of our time down there. Máirín and Paddy were very friendly and welcoming hosts. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!

Loch an Dilliúr Apartment
We spent 2 nights in Loch an Dilliúr guesthouse, a 5/10 minute walk from Carraroe Village, Co. Galway. The accommodation was excellent. A very spacious, spotless 2 bedroomed apartment, kitchen/dining room, etc. The hosts were lovely, very friendly and helpful. Would return again, highly recommended. Ar fheabhas ar fad!

Burrenwest selfcatering apartment
War echt total gemütlich in der netten Wohnung. Zu Fuß ans Meer um Watvögel zu beobachten und danach ein Eis im Eiscafé direkt neben der Wohnung. Sehr schön. Dazu die herrliche Stille. Weil der Burren so viel bietet und die eindrucksvollen Cliffs of Moher so nahe sind, überlegen wir auf jeden Fall wieder zu kommen. Uns hat es super gefallen.
House rentals with beach access

Luxury house with panoramic views in Connemara
Das Haus von Mark besticht durch seine einmalige Lage auf einer schmalen Zunge einer Halbinsel, weshalb es zu beiden Seiten nur wenige hundert Meter zu Fuss zu zwei Meerbuchten ist (eine davon mit einem "Privat-Strand/Wiese", welche direkt über einen eigenen Weg vom Gelände aus zu erreichen ist). Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und sehr geräumig. Durch die einmalige Lage hat man aus mehreren Zimmern direkten Meerblick (auf die ruhigen Austernbuchten) und auch aus den restlichen Zimmern meist einen Blick in die freie Natur (inkl. der nächtlichen Blicke in einen wundervollen Sternenhimmel) Alle Zimmer sind hell und gemütlich und die Ausstattung von Küche/Wirtschaftsraum und Bad sind sehr gut, lediglich das Warmwassersystem der unteren Räume ist etwas umständlich (mit Heizung kombiniert) was aber bei insgesamt 3 Bädern/Duschen kein Problem darstellt. Wir (inkl. Hund) hatten 8 wundervolle Tage und Nächte an einem sensationellen Ort und würden jederzeit wieder kommen!

Newly refurbished 4 bedroom house. Prime location.
A clean and well presented house. We self catered everything we needed was there. Ideally located away from the bustle of the city but close enough to access. 20 mins walk to city centre. 5 min drive to Lidl. Gillian was very helpful and prompt with responses couldn’t have asked for more. Ideal for our party of four would certainly stay again.

Bog Road Cottage, Connemara for two
Our stay at the Bog Road Cottage was wonderful. The location was ideal for us as it was outside the nearby towns so was quiet and sat on a great, walkable road that ran through a beautiful area, but it was close enough to easily drive into Clifden or one of the nearby beach towns. The cottage itself was quaint and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed, some nice treats to welcome us on the first day, and nice seating inside and out for some slow mornings and evenings. Sophia was really welcoming and very helpful in providing insights and info on good things to do in the area, and great with communication. We very much enjoyed our stay here.

Derrypark Cottage
Ein grosses Dankeschön an Piero für den Support.

Tom Jacks, coastal views and beach walks Connemara
Tom Jacks is in a stunning, peaceful, location with beautiful coastal views. We even spotted Dolphins, whilst eating breakfast outside! The decking area is spacious and comfortable outdoor furniture is provided,along with a BBQ. Inside, the house is very clean and quite spacious, with a log burner for cosy evenings. (Plenty of logs provided) The house is well situated for drives to the local beaches and surrounding area. Letterfrack has a good supermarket. We wouldn’t hesitate in returning in the future.

Stunning Cottage on the Waters Edge
Had a fantastic stay here. The cottage and the area were absolutely lovely and J was so helpful when we’re checking in- he recommended some wonderful hikes and places to eat!

Dolphin Beach Lodge
We have stayed at many places in Ireland over last few years but Dolphin Beach Lodge has become our favourite place so far. The house is beautiful and so clean with everything you might need for your stay or more. The location is brilliant with breathtaking views and its own private beach. We got very lucky with the weather and even spotted a couple of very playful dolphins on our last morning here. Clodagh is one of the best hosts we have stayed with who even allowed us to check in early and check out late to make the most of the weather. We have already started to plan our next stay.

Spiddal, near Galway. On the Wild Atlantic Way.
We greatly enjoyed our stay here. It felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, yet surrounded by so many great places and things to do. The house was cozy and very unique. Sheila and Redmond are fantastic hosts. They cared very much about us having a great experience and provided support and a wealth of knowledge on the area. This was the perfect place to call home for our few days in County Galway. We hope we can make it back one day!!

Quay-side luxury sea-view apartment, Kinvara
Lovely place a few minutes walk to a handful of great pubs and restaurants. Apartment was clean and well stocked with extra towels, etc. Great communication from Fiona prior to our stay which included lots of useful suggestions on things to do and places to see in the area.

Urban retreat close to all Galway has to offer
Great spot for me and my family to visit Galway. Quiet area with a great cafe just around the corner. Max was incredibly friendly and the book of suggestions and brochures was a nice touch. He even set up a high chair for our little one and offered a baby cot (we had one already with us). Thanks Max!

Ocean Breeze Lodge Apartment (Brand New)
Spotless beautiful home was perfect for my family of 4. Allen brought fresh scones that were absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend to other families.

Griffins Tiernee
D’fhan mé féin, mo chol ceathrar agus a bheirt mhac óg i dteach Gail agus Antoine i nGarmna, i gceartlár na n-oileán i gConamara. Bhí fáilte chroíúil romhainn ón gcéad lá, ní hamháin ó Gail agus Antoine ach óna gcomharsana freisin. Bhí an teach an-ghlan, compordach agus feistithe go hálainn. Bhí na seomraí codlata ar chaighdeán ard agus bhí an áit an-áisiúil don iascach, ár gcúis le teacht. Bhí Antoine thar a bheith flaithiúil lena chuid ama agus comhairle. Thaitin an bord púil go mór linn tráthnóna. Bhí an t-atmaisféar suaimhneach agus fáiltiúil i gcónaí. Molaim go hard d’aon duine ar mhaith leis eispéireas fíor-Ghaelach i gConamara álainn. Beidh muid ar ais gan dabht!

Kathleen's Cosy apartment with car parking.
Nice homely accommodation in a quiet part of town. Good communication.

Galway Wild Atlantic Way Holiday Apartment
We can’t say enough about how wonderful our stay was! Mairead was warm and welcoming and her place was perfectly cozy and fully equipped. We were able to walk to a local pub, a grocery store to cook, and the beach ( about 10-15 minutes). We also conveniently were able to take a bus to nearby Galway and Au Spiddal, a cute little craft town. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get away to the countryside with easy access to city life!

Atlantic Retreat Luxury Apartment 2 - Burren views
We really enjoyed our stay at this Airbnb. The location was beautiful, it was incredibly spacious! It was spotlessly clean and the host was very helpful, and really took time to think of all the little details to make the stay comfortable. I would just say to be aware that others are renting the main house below you. You have your own door to lock so it’s not uncomfortable, but you do enter the same front door as them. And if you want to use the laundry you need to walk around back and enter the house from the back ; so it is possible that the other family is outside or can see you from the dining area. It didn’t bother us , but the other family staying there wasn’t aware we would be there, so just thought it worth mentioning. But we loved the stay!

Superb Apartment beside the sea
Marie was a wonderful host. She communicated ahead of time to ensure we had all the details needed for our trip. She was very kind and has a beautiful home right near the water. We wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you Marie for an excellent stay. If you are considering a place near Galway this is a perfect place to stay. The short walk in to the city is beautiful along the water and located in a quiet, peaceful place to rest.
