Carolyn and John were fantastic hosts, and both the rooms and the breakfast were fantastic. They were both incredibly helpful in pointing out good spots to visit, and they were very kind to give us tips on good restaurants and walking areas.

Caroline and John were amazing hosts! They were really warm and went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. They also offered great advise on what tours I could take. The tours departed nearby in the city centre which was easy to get to and the city itself is just so lovely. Importantly, I felt comfortable and safe as a solo female traveller and walking into the city centre was just ~20mins pleasant walk away. Lastly, breakfast every morning was fresh and tasty. The Wave is a great place to stay!

Nothing! A perfect stay

Such a lovely couple, a prime example of hospitality, and from the moment we arrived at the door, we immediately felt welcome. It was clean and comfortable, a true home from home. The lovely environment created a warm atmosphere in which to meet all the other guests. Close to both the city and the sea, the perfect location for a quiet stay.

Caroline and John were wonderful. It was a great starting point for our trip and so far the best breakfast in Ireland! Caroline serves the best brown bread!

The owners were so kind and had many recommendations for restaurants and activities. The room was very clean and breakfast was amazing. I could tell the owners really cared about making our stay a great experience and I loved how “personal” this B&B is compared to a hotel. Location is great, right by a beach and a short walk into the city.

We had a wonderful time staying at Carol and John's house. They were incredibly friendly and helpful, providing us with excellent advice for our day trips to the Moher Cliffs, Aran Islands, and Connemara. The room was exceptionally clean, and the breakfast was delicious. We highly recommend the Wave.

We rarely say this, but we liked it the way it was.

The Wave is run with heart and soul, which makes it really special. We had a wonderful time and can only higly recommend it. We appreciate the Irish hospitality very much. Caroline and John are doing an amazing job to make your stay memorable. There are superb places to eat out nearby. We loved the location too.

Breakfast - great choices. Perfect location - close to Salthill with shops and restaurants and a short walk to Galway City centre. Also an hour to the north there is Connemara National park and an hour to the south there are the cliffs of Moher. The owners were friendly and welcoming, giving good tour advice with tips and recommendations.

So many lovely touches, Caroline was absolutely amazing, provided us with tea and biscuits when we arrived, made a delicious breakfast and gave us some brilliant suggestions where to visit during our stay. The room was immaculate with a super comfy bed, and the property was close to both Salthill and West end areas of the city. We're desperate to book our stay for next year already!

Caroline and John both are extremely friendly and helpful hosts! Great breakfast; though only the smallest room was available for us to book, we spent some wonderful days at The Wave in Galway.

Caroline and John are very warm and welcoming hosts. We felt very comfortable with them right away. They took wonderful care of us and provided us with lots of advice about Galway. The room was wonderful. The breakfast was exceptional and they also catered to personal requests. The location near the coast is also great to explore Galway. This is the best B&B we have stayed in so far! @Caroline and John: Thank you very much!

Our stay was beyond our expectations. Caroline greeted us with scones and tea, showed us our beautiful room, and gave us some great suggestions about where to go and where to eat( the restaurant we actually went to was a real geam). She and her husband prepared an excellent and lovely Irish breakfast, with eggs, smoked salmon, bread with butter and jam and scones. On our last morning we were leaving really early, but Caroline still cooked us some amazing pancakes. Caroline's house is really beautiful and our room was as well. It was really clean and quiet. Caroline really took care of us and made us feel at home. I strongly recommend It!

Excellent homely B&B a short stroll from Salthill and an easy 15-minute walk into town – Galway’s “Westend” just before the bridge, and the Spanish gate on the other side. Our room was spotless, spacious, and the large bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and very good quality. The hosts are just what you would love to find in this kind of accommodation – a big thumbs up.

Everything. Cozy, spotless, feels-like-home B&B. Delicious breakfast with options. Awesome hosts. And a cat 😍
