Clontarf Seaview Residence
We had a great time at Denise‘s lovely flat which is situated in a really nice neighbourhood (Clontarf).

The Cottage
As we were visiting family in Kilcock this was the perfect location. Small but perfectly formed and has everything you need. Kevin provides very clear instructions and it’s very easy to check in. Will visit again.

Large Bright Apartment by Dun Laoghaire Harbour
Great location and beautiful apartment right by the Dart, stayed for 2 weeks. Could’ve stayed longer. Had an issue with WiFi initially but the host was very responsive and even provided a signal booster. Highly recommend and would stay again

Everything at your doorstep!
Absolutely amazing apartment in a great location. Check in was super easy and Kristofor was more than happy for us to have an earlier check in time than Stated due to our early flight time.

Waterfront Interior Designed Luxurious Apartment
We loved our stay here in Dublin. The location overlooking the water is absolutely beautiful. We felt that we could get to where we wanted to go on foot or with the train, DART, bus and Uber/taxi. Bernard was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. There is a restaurant and bar below the apartment(good food!)and can be loud if you are going to bed earlier but did not keep us awake. There are also multiple coffee shops, restaurants and a grocery store in the immediate vicinity. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Apartment on Dublin Bay 2 Double bedrooms en suite
A rare 5+ star experience. An absolutely lovely and well-appointed flat, and an attentive yet non intrusive host. We frequently travel to Dublin to visit family and look for accommodations in the Seapoint/ Monkstown area for accessibility to family members on foot or by Dart. The flat is also an easy walk to shopping and restaurants in Monkstown (our favourite) as well as Dún Laoghaire and Black Rock. The flat is as portrayed in the images, the bed and linens were excellent quality and the bathrooms and cooking facilities more than met expectations. Our experience with the flat and with James would have been a 5 star experience, even without the thoughtful extra touches like freshly baked soda bread, home-made jam, and (coincidentally) our favourite kind of white wine. Thank you James for your hospitality and for being such a thoughtful and gracious host.

Cozy Central 2 Bedroom apartment with Balcony
Perfect!

Modern Central Riverfront Apartment
Everyone deserves to treat themselves on occasion, so if you find yourself in Dublin and wanting to indulge yourself you could not do better than renting this apartment. Not only is it very beautiful and modern, but every convenience is provided for. The hosts are extremely friendly and provided some excellent suggestions on a number of topics. The nearby neighborhood has most of what you might need and you can even reach the city within a 30 minute walk. The apartment is so modern that part of the adventure is figuring out how to utilize all the bells & whistles.....though even that is well documented. We could not have enjoyed our stay more and this apartment was one of the highlights of our vacation in Dublin.

The Mews. •3 Bedrooms •Entire House
Beautiful surroundings! Aisling was a wonderful host, on our last day we got to have some cuddles with the alpacas🦙 We really enjoyed ourselves! Had a gorgeous time, having been to mondello park and then to Avondale treetop walk which did not disappoint. It’s lovely with the Christmas lights. This is a lovely peaceful place to stay and if we are back that direction again, we would most definitely be back!☺️

Modern Family Home with Spectacular Beach Views
Loved staying in Monique’s home. It was beautiful, clean and so close to the beach. It was a family friendly home suitable for teenagers and toddlers. Monique communicated with me throughout our stay and had a hand list of restaurants and places to visit. She lent us dry robes for sea swims and family games for game nights. I would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful detached 4 bed home. Ranelagh, Dublin 6
Great location and home for a family or larger group. Nice neighborhood that is very walkable to restaurants, LUAS, and busses. Hosts were very accommodating and responsive when we had questions. Unlocking and locking the door was a little challenging - perhaps more detail up front would be helpful. The home itself was a spacious ground floor with dining room, living room, and lovely outdoor terrace with koi pond. Lots of toys available for toddlers which was helpful. Bedrooms are nicely appointed and on the smaller side.

Too The Shore Greystones
Beautiful, spacious house right on the seafront with fantastic views. The house exceeded all expectations, and was within easy walking distance from all of the amenities of Greystones. Cannot recommend staying here enough!!

GREYSTONES BESIDE the SEA.
Oh, I loved this house. Such a perfect, peaceful location. I already miss walking the cliff road to get coffee each morning. And sitting by the upstairs windows, gazing out at the ocean and the walkers. The rooms were beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The shower was strong and hot. Caroline was great with communications and in fact, left the best ---most useful (eggs/milk/butter)---welcome basket I've ever received at a vacation house rental.

River Lodge
We were very lucky to spend a week away in Amaya's charming River Lodge located just outside the town of Kilbride and close to the beautiful Wicklow Mountains National Park. The cottage itself is well equipped, stylishly furnished and includes an incredibly comfortable bathroom. The cottage also provides access to a lovely garden and a small river providing you with everything you need to enjoy a lovely stay. Amaya is a very kind host, providing personal recommendations and always being available in case of any needs. We highly recommend this accomodation to anyone looking for comfort and tranquility while exploring the beautiful surroundings of the Wicklow Mountains.

Beach House, Skerries
A great apartment in a fabulous location right on the beach with great view of skerries harbour. Ideal for walking into the town of skerries. Would highly recommend this cosy apartment. Rory was very welcoming and helpful.

Georgian home, seaside location
This is a lovely, spacious period house with lots of character in a great location. Nice place to stay for a family gathering with helpful hosts. This is a residential home so felt very much like borrowing someones house rather than an impersonal holiday rental. There is lots to do nearby with stylish eateries and drinkeries. 5 minutes from the sea with all year round swimming available for the hardy. There are a couple of saunas near the sea if you want to warm up too. We popped over to the James Joyce museum in a nearby tower and took the Dart into central Dublin- all very easy. Hosts were very helpful and responsive, providing plenty of support and information before check in and during stay as required. There is on site parking but the access is tricky for some cars due to angles,slopes etc (not uncommon in Dublin I understand). there is also plenty of free parking round the corner 5 minutes away. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to others.

wonderful spacious 105m2,.apt, with river views
Excellent location, spacious apartment and great view over the river. Even though in the heart of temple bar wasn’t too noisy

Unique apartment | Temple Bar | On The River
We’ve previously stayed in some lovely hotels in Dublin but this experience was far better. Views over the river Liffey, kitchen facilities, balcony etc. Exactly as described and right in the centre (but quiet), perfect!

Period home with outstanding beach views
We had a wonderful stay - the house was perfect with the most amazing views. Nuala was very helpful, friendly and very quick to respond to any queries. Top marks all round from us.

Dublin City Center Apartment
The location is fantastic, the apartment is right along the river with lovely views. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and welcoming. Filipe was an excellent host—communicative and accommodating for check-in and check-out. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Dublin!

Top Floor Apartment w/ Sea Views
This was one of our favorite places to stay. The apartment was perfect with absolutely everything you could want. The sea view was magical and all sorts of restaurants were nearby. We were able to walk to the train for Dublin and even took the bus one day. An absolute 10!

Private stunning 1 bed apartment with sea views.
Great location for walking the sea front, onto Clontarf village for restaurants and on the bus route for going in town. Well stocked with all the supplies we needed but it was very warm and sheets vs duvet would have been a welcome addition. We were just lucky with a warm spell.

Lovely Two Bedroom Apartment on The Riverfront
Pat was responsive and very accommodating. I can’t imagine a more convenient location in Dublin if you’re wanting access to the city center.

Large Stylish, Bright & Luxurious 2 Bed Apartment
I really like Daniel’s place! Lovely spacious apartment (we were 3). Place was nice and clean. No hassle getting in. A walk into the city and so close to where I was working
