From

The location was super albeit up a very narrow, bendy lane. It's in the countryside, yet only about a ten minute walk to Spiddal and less to the beach. Ideal location for exploring West Galway. The kitchen was very well equipped and the bed was very comfortable. There were plenty of towels and hot water available. Our dog was made very welcome, too.🥰

From

A massive apartment in a really excellent location. Outside of the hustle and bustle of the main Salthill Prom, but within a 5 minute walk to make it easily accessible. Perfect for families with children. The water is right on the doorstep and lots of coffee shops and convenience stores within a few minutes - everything you could need! Another bonus is the walk into Galway only takes about 15 minutes. The property owners went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable which was hugely appreciated from a family like ours with two babies and lots of requests! We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking for accommodation in Galway/Salthill.
