The Waterfront Rest B&B is a beach-front property located on the peaceful Wild Atlantic Way in the heart of Connemara. Rooms overlook the beautiful water and free WiFi is available in public areas. The property is recommended by Le Guide du Routard. The views were stunning and the host was delightful. Can't comment on breakfast as we left too early.

Connemara Sands Hotel & Spa 4 stars

The rooms have tea/coffee making facilities. Featuring a shower, private bathroom also comes with a bath or shower and a hairdryer. Extras include a sofa, a desk and a safety deposit box. The family suite was perfect with its terrace and picturesque views, not to mention direct access to the tennis court. It had a nespresso machine (capsules), tea-making facilities and a large bottle of water in the fridge daily. It also had a large smart TV with Netflix, YouTube, etc. Great wifi connection. The Staff were very welcoming, smiling, helpful and discreet. Breakfast was one of the best we've ever had! Top marks for the food and its beautiful presentation in general! Excellent location; 10 mins from Cliften and close to Roundstone, Kylemore Abbey, the 12 Bens/Pins, Inisbofin and Omey islands and several beautiful beaches such as Mannin Bay Blueway Beach, Gurteen Beach and Dog's Bay (Roundstone). The hotel beach is breath-taking - we spent our mornings there looking for all kinds of shells, crabs, jellyfish, etc. We all loved it! We used the Spa and the Sauna which was overlooking the beach/sea. It's a perfect hotel for a family, romantic getaway or for a break away from the stress of life. You are bathed in peace, quiet, nature and tranquillity!
