Nice stay
Really nice view, beautiful location, excellent owner, excellent breakfast, very small room, tight bathroom, very clean. We needed a downstairs room and I think the upstairs rooms were bigger. We can't do stairs.

Wir wurden von superfreundlichen Gastgebern empfangen, hatten ein tolles Frühstück und ein großes, sauberes Zimmer. Das Haus selbst würde aber sicherlich eine Renovierung gut vertragen. Insgesamt hat es uns aber gut gefallen.
Great friendly owners with a breakfast that will fill you up for the rest of the day. Room was clean and tidy. Located about 5 miles from Clifden in a quiet, rural location with views that will take your breath away.
Worst experience in my life.We arrived there from Kildare town with my family and my sister's family (3 hour and a half)
We booked with hotels.com When we arrived there the host said she doesn't work with hotels.com and my room was confirmed but how she said my booking was through Expedia but I never booked with Expedia I booked with Hotels.com
But the worst part was that my sister's room was cancelled and she said hotels.com cancelled it for no reason but my sister didn't get any cancellation emails from them and hotels.com kept asking through email how was her check-in How did they cancelled her room then? We showed her hotels.com email and she said she doesn't know anything because she doesn't work with hotel.com She didn't care that we were with our little kids and they were exhausted because of long distance and my daughter started crying She said because my room was confirmed I can stay but not my sister's family But we planned to spend our holiday together and I refused+she said she that her property is adults only How is that possible because my booking was 2 adults 1 Child We struggled to find smthg and we were forced to go back in Galway which is 1.5 hour distance from there I was so angry because we couldn't find anything at that time
My holiday was cancelled because of this property and I never come back there Very disappointed😡
The host and hostess were very welcoming and accommodating. The location was stunning and peaceful and can be enjoyed from a sunroom available to the guests. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding with many choices and prepared individually. We totally enjoyed our time at Ocean Villa.
This Villa is adorable. The breakfast was very good and the owners are so welcoming! The roads in the area can be a little challenging to navigate but well worth the risks. The town nearby offers great dining options. We have already recommended it as a spot to stay for the in-laws during their trip next year.
A really enjoying stay. We spent 1 night during a road trip in Connemara. Ocean Villa is at 4 km of Clifden and it is great because far from tourists aeras.
The view on the sea is great.
A very nice stay.
Great welcome and super breakfast. 10 mins drive the quick way around the Sky Loop, but go the other way for an amazing view from the viewpoint. We hit a couple of days of Mediterranean-like temperatures, which added to the stay.
It didn’t work out quite as expected as our late in the day booking had not been received by the property owners . Unfortunately they weren’t able to accommodate us in a twin room as they had none available although it was advertised on this site.

The ocean villa was spectacular with the views and the service provided. Th couple here are so willing to make sure your stay is warm and enjoyable
It was uncertainty finding the premises as Google Map leads you to the narrowest lane possible. At times we really thought we were driving into no-man's-land! The hotel has a nice, homey atmosphere and a pretty lawn facing the bay. The owner-couple was gracious and friendly and breakfast was good. Beware: they only take cash in Euros.

Don't make the same mistake we did! Even though this place takes bookings through this website over December, they are actually closed! We had to find somewhere else after arriving and discovering this :(
