Atlantic Sunset, hotel in Valentia Island

Set in Portmagee and only 2.2 km from Skellig Experience Centre, Atlantic Sunset offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking.

No breakfast (as advertised) but the tea/coffee/cereal/milk and yoghurt provided was more than sufficient to start the day, toaster, kettle and cleanliness was greatly appreciated, highly recommended Even though we reached only after 7:45pm and left by 9:30 am, it was a stay that we enjoyed

The Moorings Hotel & Seafood Restaurant, hotel in Valentia Island

Overlooking Portmagee’s busy harbour, The Moorings Guesthouse is just a 30-second walk from the pier, offering elegant rooms with marble bathrooms.

Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, right on the harbour, we got a parking spot right outside. The food was wonderful, plenty of choice and the next morning the Irish breakfast was so tasty. Our room was really comfortable, the shower was hot.

The Smugglers Inn, hotel in Valentia Island

The Smugglers Inn overlooks the sandy beach at Ballinskelligs Bay. Most rooms have sea or mountain views and the hotel has a bar, a gourmet restaurant, free WiFi in all areas and free parking.

Simply superb. Beautifully decorated room with sea view (we were upgraded), very comfortable and good facilities. Breakfast was excellent with a wide range of choices. We had dinner in the restaurant and this was top quality with varied seafood options and a high class wine list. Service was very efficient and quick - perhaps a touch too brisk at dinner. Overall, however, hard to beat.

    The location is superb, close to Portmagee for Skellibg trips and the local restaurants. It is beautifully quiet and self contained(no adjoining rooms so no other guests) and on a clear night you can see the stars. Safe and secure with plenty of parking. Both the room and bathroom are newly decorated so everything is very fresh, having a fridge is a nice touch. Declan the host was super helpful and his food recommendations were spot on. Looking forward to going back.

    What an absolute gem of a place!! Marie and her family were so lovely, and nothing was too much trouble. Their home is warm and inviting, our bedroom and bathroom were spotless and very comfortable. There was a fantastic selection for breakfast; I highly recommend the pancakes with fresh fruit!!! Marie and her mum are absolutely charming and so full of positive energy, we were sorry to leave, and can’t wait to return again some day.

    The location is magical! You can walk to St. Brenden's Well. The hostess is delightful, and made a delicious breakfast! We had one of the best dinners we have ever had at The Moorings Guesthouse & Seafood Restaurant @ The Bridge Bar in Portmagee . . . just a short drive from the B&B, and recommended by your hostess.
