"Cannot say enough good things about the Armada House! One of the most memorable, lovely hotels we've ever stayed at. The staff was so kind and the hotel was decorated so beautifully including the rooms. Such incredible views and lots of areas to walk to enjoy the nature views. We pre-booked taxis to Doolin for a ferry to the Aran Islands and to the Cliffs of Moher during our stay. Would absolutely love to return!"

"Cool spot"

"Very quaint well maintained Hotel."

"Review for Cashen Course House – September 2025 We had a lovely stay at Cashen Course House in Ballybunion. The location is perfect — quiet but still close to the town and golf course. The room was spotless, and everything was well maintained, which made for a really comfortable stay. Having on-site parking was a big plus, especially after driving around the countryside. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, which added a personal touch to the experience. I’d definitely recommend this B&B to anyone visiting the area. Would happily stay again!"

"Clean room. Safe parking."

"This place was such an amazing surprise! We booked this last minute and not on our planned travel path. We absolutely loved everything about our stay. The staff was fabulous and helpful. The food was delicious, we loved both meals. The facilities with the pool and spa sealed the deal! We love this place and will be back with friends! "

"Doolin Inn was an exceptional place to stay. Beautiful location, lovely and friendly people, great music at local pub. Great food there too. "
