The eco resort drew us to an overnight stay in Goleen, and it didn't disappoint. We regret not leaving more time to explore the whole compound of the resort, which itself is a grand combination of so many things, including all those different sorts of gardens, plants, rocks, animals, sea views and even a wee pier. The cabin is very lovely and well designed despite its limited size. Listening to Enya inside while hearing the sea breeze through the bog and grass was some experience. The guide Matt was also very nice and explained to us everything clearly enough, including what was going on in town. Unfortunately jet lag put us into an earlier rest.

Some of the details of the room were a bit tricky, such as the entrance doormat that would actually block the toilet door. We also met some people in the morning at a garage thing (not sure if they were staff members) who didn't look too bothered while I was looking for eye contact.

Nice chalet in a quiet, unspoilt location. Chalet had everything needed provided and was very clean. Mattresses were really comfortable and it was great to be able to park beside the chalet. Owner was very nice and responsive with our issues. Close to Goleen and nice base for exploring the area.

The driveway up to the chalet's was very narrow and very stony- so we had to drive slowly to protect our tyres! The chalet itself was compact and had very little storage space to put anything away in both the main area and the bathroom. It was also very cramped when the pull down bed was down for 3 of us. It would have been ideal for 2 people. The ladder up to the loft bed you had to be very careful climbing up and down and there was very little room in the loft (we knew this would be the case before check-in). The hot tub and sauna were not provided by the property free of charge (as was implied on the booking.com website) but you had to book slot via their website and pay €20pp for 45mins. It would have been nice to have known this in advance. Unfortunately there was an issue with the water for us. The day after our arrival the water was initially cold and then not working at all. The owner was very responsive and had an engineer come out that day and fix it but at that point we had set out for the day without showers- so not ideal. The shower was very good the next day when it worked. I also thought it was expensive for what it was at over €200 per night.

Amazing location. Very nice staff. Lovely cabin.

Location

Disappointed with no access to WiFi. Totally understand the concept of the accommodation but I do think WiFi could be available.
