We stayed at the Dolphin Beach House for 2 nights and would encourage anyone who is going to Clifden to stay there. If beauty, great service and genuinely great energy is important to you, this is the place! more

Dolphin Beach House was located on the most scenic property, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and beautiful green pastures. We strolled along the grassy cliffs watching the sea birds and splashing waves and returned to an Irish breakfast of fresh baked scones to accompany the best homecooked, custom made breakfast of your choice. Dinners were also home cooked and equally superb,... more

Dolphin Beach House is basically paradise in Ireland. The house is extraordinary beautiful, and I was lucky to be given a choice between two rooms, both of which were gorgeous. My room was enormous, interestingly designed, and opened up onto its own little garden patio. The rest of the property also made for a lovely walk to see the lily... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dolphin Beach House - what a fabulous place. We arrived at 23.30 on Friday night due to work commitments and they were very accommodating of this. We woke to an amazing morning - sun splitting the stones, breathtaking views and an exquisite breakfast. The hosts, Clodagh and Darragh, are so welcoming and provide fantastic... more

My husband and I stayed for three nights and loved it. The house is beautiful, the rooms are lovely and more than ample space. The location is amazing, taking walks on the hillside cliffs with the sheep grazing a few feet away was so fun. Belle the dog was an added bonus and she took me down to the beach... more

Dolphin Beach is no ordinary place. The welcome from Clodagh and the gorgeous rooms are to die for. We truly did not want to leave. We stayed in Bay View with a fantastic sleigh bed and view of the ocean. The room was spotless and quiet. The food was lovely and the lounge area complete with Belle the dog felt... more

This is a wonderful place to unwind and relax which was exactly what I was looking for when I stayed in early April. Enhanced by the lovely weather, the peace and tranquility of this hidden gem made this the most memorable time. Tastefully decorated with a lovely comfortable bed, the Peacock Bedroom on the ground floor was just delightful. The... more

this guesthouse in Connemara is one of the best places we've ever stayed and we've been to many of the finest hotels in Europe. The setting is gorgeous, the service is perfect, the food is delicious. You can tell by looking at the website that the rooms are lovely and it is spotlessly cleaned. I am not overstating this! We... more
