Waterville is a pretty little village in kerry dark sky...
Waterville is a pretty little village in kerry dark sky reserve and close to kerry cliffs. Friendly people but not a lot to do. Excellent guinness beef stew at Dooley's. Would not recommend Darc apartments. - 3rd bedroom was like a closet and very uncomfortable cot to sleep on. 2 bathrooms- one toilet was out of order and no water pressure in either shower. Could have been cleaner - used bars of soap in bathrooms..Tv not hooked up and other than helping us find the unit , which was poorly marked- owner of unit did not respond to inquiries from us regarding plumbing, tv etc. Location was convenientAAnonymous - 10Scored 10

It was beautiful!!! Great location and service and food! Lovely clean room & new en suite. Room has ocean front view and you can fall asleep looking at the stars! There is also a lounge to watch the sunset! You really need a car for Waterville to get to Smuggler’s Inn.AAnonymous - 10Scored 10

I thought people in Waterville very friendly and helpful.
I thought people in Waterville very friendly and helpful. The promenade is a lovely opportunity for a walk along the sea! Interesting to read about Mick O'Dwyer and Charley Chaplin linked to this small seaside town! The scenery around Waterville is spectacular.

More lively than we thought it would be in the dead of winter. It's a nice clean, well-kept town in an outstanding location by the sea. The mountains are right beside you. Plenty of places to explore.PaulUnited States of America

- From $218.05 per night8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 293 reviewsThe restaurant at the hotel is very good. It boasts expansive windows with a water view. There is a large living room area with open fireplace. Another fireplace blazes at the reception area plus a third in the handsome bar. Our room had a comfortable bed as well as plenty of space and a good view. Parking is just behind the hotel and is free. A tip about the area-make sure you do the Skellig Ring Drive and get out for the walk to the view. It is the best part of the Ring.
charlesUnited States of America - 8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 111 reviewsThe room was perfect, immaculate and comfortable. Beautiful view of the lake. The hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating. Location is great, Waterville has plenty of nice bars and restaurants, and it's a short drive south to beautiful Caherdaniel/Derrynane beach or North to Valentia Island/ Skellig ring/ Cahershiveen or Kells. Great value for money. Fishing is good on the lake. Even with little experience on a hot day, I caught a fish within 20 minutes of casting.
Darragh GilliganIreland - From $202.09 per night9.2Scored 9.2WonderfulRated wonderful· 378 reviewsWe stayed here so that we'd be close to the departure point for our trip to Skellig Michael out of Portmagee, and it turned out to be a very convenient location with great views. The room was clean and well-appointed, and a good size for three people. Being able to book a room with three beds was excellent. Everyone we interacted with from the hotel was friendly and accommodating.
JesseUnited States of America - 9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 19 reviewsFabulous experience in an idyllic setting. Incredibly beautiful views, especially if you like sheep and the world of fiber. The house was immaculate, comfortable and charming. Our host's parents gave us a phenomenal tour of their sheep farm. Our 3 hours with Timothy and Kitty was one of the most heartwarming times we had in Ireland. I'd return to Hidden Hills in a heartbeat.

Would highly recommend this b&b. Good location within easy walking distance into waterville. Room clean and cozy, huge bathroom, quiet area, fab food compliments to the chef. Restored our faith in b&b as you didn't feel like you were visiting an elderly aunts house!NicholaIreland
