The owners were lovely and so was the cooked breakfast, but I'm afraid that's where the compliments begin and end. The room looks like it was last decorated in about 1970 and the shower just dribbled - no hope of doing any kind of showering!! The bed was sheets and blanket rather than duvet (admittedly this is a personal thing)... More

My room had a sea view which was wonderful (see photo), and I didn't even have to pay extra for it! The beds were decent with clean bedding and very good pillows (I hate cheap pillows!) The room was well stocked, with drinks making facilities, plenty of storage, a TV, en suite with towels provided, all clean and all in... More

Stayed at St eia fir 3 nights in aug, room quite small, but clean and comfortable and view was fab. Arrived early and room was ready, and breakfast was really good, and again the view at breakfast is amazing. Enjoyed the short walk down to the beach. Great location. Would stay there again. More

Stayed here with some trepidation having read some of the bad reviews, but have to say we had a good time. Ok, it is a bit dated but the water was hot, we had tea making facilities, a fine breakfast, somewhere to park the car and a five minute walk to the beach. I think we do expect so much... More

I stayed at St Eia for 3 days in august 2010. I cannot believe what is being written about this place!! Everything was spot on from the moment I arrived! The hotel is full of character and its atmosphere is warm and invitng, unlike the modern clinical hotels of today, run by staff who quite frankly dont care whether you... More

I have to disagree with the preceeding negative reviews, I think the sea views and cosy rooms make up for the slight tiredness of the decor and all in all we had a great time staying at the St Eia. I think part of the problem is that the owners do most of the work and the male half of... More

My partner and I spent 3 uncomfortable nights at this `Hotel’. We were greeted at reception by a not so friendly lady who just about managed a smile as we walked away. Décor is dated but gave the place character. One of our main problems was the smell, as we reached the landing on which our room was on it... More

really is an a tired old sticky carpet type of place I would guess normally block booked for workmen certainly does not cut the mustard as somewhere you would want a holiday or a weekend away More

Tired and not very clean and this at the start of the season, this B&B pretending it's an hotel and charging five star hotel prices really is a throwback to the bad old days of english B&B's. I can not think of one good point about the place,the deluded owners need to come to Ireland and see the standards that... More
