La vue - la proximité de Sandy Cove hike

L’accueil froid et le manque de flexibilité (impossible de déposer les bagages 2h avant l’heure d’arrivée officielle) - la serrure de la master bedroom qui ne marchait pas.

The view was wonderful, and there was plenty of space for our party of 6.

All the comforts of home!

It would have been nice to have access to the WiFi password. Also, the hall bathroom shower was very confusing.

The view was amazing! We loved the house, it was very cozy and cute with nice bathrooms and beds. A little bit of a trek with a car to get up to the house but it was great.

The TV did not work and could not work the heat or it was not turning on in the main living area.

La casa è stupenda, la posizione è semplicemente da sogno

Non c’era nessuna dotazione in bagno, giusto del sapone liquido accanto al lavello ma niente Shampoo, docciaschiuma o altro. Pure in cucina nessuna dotazione: non c’era nemmeno un gran granello di zucchero né è un granello di sale, nemmeno tovaglioli di carta. Internet prende molto male e non c’erano indicazioni sul Wi-Fi. Credo che per il prezzo pagato avrebbero potuto accoglierci meglio.

Views and location of the property are fantastic. What a beautful part of the world. We had an excellent stay, Thank you

Loved the location Space is large and has good quality beds, living room is spacing and we loved the outdoor area

Bathrooms and kitchen utensils are outdated and need replacing

Essentials lacking for the price Soap, tea,coffee, wifi,usable cookware

Vue magnifique, belle petite maison

Manquerait juste des choses qui ne coute pas cher tellles que le sel, poivre… Dosettes pour machine a cafe charbon de bois et bois pour le barbecue

The beautiful location, it was so peaceful.

Really, really lovely place, clean, comfortable and an amazing location, the views were gorgeous 😍

Check out times are a little early but other than that nothing.

Awesome house that provided everything we needed. The garden is fantastic and everything is clean and very well furnished.

The yard was amazing with good views. Couches in the living room were very comfortable and it had a very homey feel, which was nice in the middle of our vacation of staying in hotels.

Easy to find, spacious clean house that has everything

The location was very nice. The key collection was easy, and there was plenty of space for the taxi to drop us off. The road up to the house can be a bit tight (to get to the stunning views!) and the local taxi drivers are pros at getting up to the house. We enjoyed sitting around the living room and having family time. The beds were comfortable and the house felt clean. We had adults in two of the rooms and three kids in the bunk room which worked great. We brought our own laundry detergent and did a load of wash. There is no clothes dryer so we used the outside drying rack. We were lucky to have a sunny day for the clothes. We had to contact Ryan a few times and he was responsive each time.

We contacted Ryan a few times with issues and each time he did respond quickly. However, those issues were not fixed, and did affect our stay so we wanted to share them. It sounds like Ryan was not made aware of some the issues and he was surprised too. He told us the cleaners never notified him. As much as we loved the views, we gave a lower rating for comfort and facilities. What we needed most was a place to have dinner and a nice shower since we spent the day out of the house. For the shower, the shower head in the ensuite master was very much broken. It looked like whomever broke it placed the head back on the holder to make it look like it was in tact. When we turned on the shower, the head came off and sprayed us because it was broken. So we just had 1 shower to shower for all 7 of us when we expected two. We have elderly parents and instead of the walk-in private shower, they had to use our shower. For dinner, there were two matters that damped our stay. The living room back-door was broken so we couldn't get easy access to the backyard to bring food or to enjoy the outdoor weather. We had no issues opening the backdoor in the bedroom, so we knew this other one was broken. Ryan said it had worked for the cleaners. I've included a photo showing the broken handle. The other issue was all the scratched up, non-stick pots. We had already picked up groceries on the way to the house so we had to use the pots to not waste our groceries. Otherwise, if we had seen the pots, we would have ordered out. We've attached a photo to help you make that decision yourself. And finally, when we got home after a long day, the fire alarms in the whole house started screeching - no fires or smoke. This caused a problem, like scaring kids in the bathroom. We called Ryan and he told us to take out the batteries. He did offer to come back to help with the alarm - luckily a few of us are able bodied to climb on a chair to get it.

Beautiful location, lovely views. The outside terrace as lovely and we got to use the bbq. Comfortable beds and warm showers

The TV remote was a bit temperamental so a bit hit and miss trying to get to the channel we wanted to watch

The property is in a beautiful location with amazing views and is close to town. My children enjoyed playing on the swing set.

The owner was not friendly and rude to deal with. The check in instructions were not made available on the app and when I sent a friendly message to request I was asked if I had downloaded the app “per the instructions.” The coffee maker did not have the necessary parts to function and I was told to check the cabinets. I had already done this. No follow up from him and instead we wasted money on the pods and still had to go back out to the grocery. The owner was extremely rude through his texts and made our stay uncomfortable. The property could use a deep clean and the furnishings are very worn and require replacement. Even the pillows were flat and worn which is gross. It’s such a shame because the location and views from this property are beautiful but the interior and owner communication lacking.

Beautiful view over the bay. Great garden for the kids to play in.

The place was clean, had beautiful views and comfortable fit my family. Location was also great being outside the hustle and bustle yet close enough to get there with a short drive. Neighborhood was quiet and safe.

I didn't realize that WiFi wasn't available and my cell coverage only worked certain times so if I needed to work while on holiday I'd think twice before staying here. There was also no shampoo, conditioner or body wash available. Finally, there was a substantial cleaning fee included yet the hosts asks you to clean before you leave.

Could not use the Fireplace.

Comfort View

Lack of response from owner. Cooking utenstil limited.

Great location with beautiful views. Lovely big garden and great space inside for a large group.

Asked beforehand what pods the coffee machine took and was told Tassimo. Bought these pods specifically for the trip and they didn't fit! Should have a few left out for guests. A bit mean. Place has great potential but the interior is a bit tired looking, needs a revamp.

The location was private yet not too far from town, great views and enjoyable for a nice walk along the coast

The house and yard were comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The view from the backyard was breathtaking and the small community was quiet and peaceful. The location was perfect: just a short trip to Cork and an even shorter one to Kinsale, where we had multiple outings.

The views - oh my gosh! I didn't book it for these, we were going to nearby attractions (Charles Fort, Ross Castle, Muckross Abbey). But Sandy Cove is an utter miracle in the morning... we did have amazing weather. But what a spot! Great house, very comfy, great deck, great fridge and oven and stove.

Light switches hard to navigate and we lost power overnight for some reason and needed to find the powerboard - thankfully the hosts got back to us quickly.

As swimmers great location to Sandycove Island , 7 Adults , Lounge area and kitchen nice and big also patio area will book again

the outside space and location were great, near to Kinsale without being in the busy center. Walkable to the coast, though it was a big hill

No breakfast provided. I didn't meet the hosts. but through booking.com, the instructions where to find the key was cleared. Loved the house with fabulous viewing (fortunately beautiful weather).

Nothing. Only very little - there were no toilet rolls available as I am sure it was slightly overlooked. it is no major issue.
