Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    The Aqua dome is a wonderful place to visit with the family. They have so much to offer for both young and old. The pool is amazing and the kids really enjoyed the slide and the waves pool. After the pool we had a really enjoyable game of pitch and putt. Its great value for money. Staff are friendly and helpful. There is ample parking which is a major bonus. I would highly recommend this for a family fun day out.

    Beautiful beach, very clean and nice and spacious. Took our dogs for a nice long walk, understandable how it’s a blue flag beach! Grabbed a tasty coffee after! Would recommend to reconnect with nature and natural beauty

    Our group of forty seniors were given a special tour of the facility and with a presentation of it's history and goals. Following this were treated to a demonstration of various Irish tap dancing styles that Irish immigrants had taken and adapted in their travels to various parts of the globe by three principal and very talented dancers. A unique, entertaining and educational experience presented by dedicated people committed to preserving Irish Folk Heritage.

    Fantastic well laid out museum, even had a little booklet for the kids to find things and tick off as they went around.
    Lots of dioramas and information on Irelands past and the walk through of medieval Tralee at the end is very cool.

    We arrived at the windmill to a very happy face, full of chat but apologised that their tour guide had called in sick so offered us a reduction on entry, which was a nice touch. I have to say they didn't need a tour guide the man front of house was a star very informative and made it all sound amazing. Made us feel at ease immediately, whatever he is being paid it needs to be doubled didn't catch his name but I k ow he is from West Cork. Then after the windmill which was fab we met the man in the red jacket in the model train room. Wow just wow his passion for trains was unreal and made the whole experience a good one. Will definitely recommend this as a place to stop and afterwards have a coffee and cake in the tearooms next door.

    I always try to call in to St John's every time I am in Tralee, it is such a beautiful place and always so serene and calm.
    Yesterdays visit was my first in about 16 months but the place has lost none of its charm and grandeur.
    I love the stone walks and the beautiful cross beams in the roof. The stained glass is captivating too. I'm not sure what word to use about it, not cosy I suppose or even homely, but welcoming.

    We spent a very enjoyable couple of hours in this museum. They currently have an excellent and very informative display on Roger Casement and the museum provides a fantastic tour through all major events in Ireland’s history. There’s a great interactive aspect to it for the kids, they were provided with an activity book to complete while going through the museum and they get to play as an archaeologist complete with hard hat and high vis vest. My 2 daughters loved the Rose of Tralee dresses and picked out their favourites. The staff were very friendly and approachable. The museum is located just across from the playground as an added incentive.

    We drove along the causeway and looked out at the small but perfectly formed lighthouse. The location is beautiful and dramatic as the weather was not best and you could see the clouds rolling in from the Atlantic.

    Potential visitors, please note that there is no access to the interior of the tower, and due to ongoing renovation work it is also not possible to get right up next to the base of the tower - there is a wall a few feet away from it. You can, however, visit the ruins of a medieval church and graveyard adjacent to it. There are no opening times - the church and graveyard are accessible at all times.

    My boyfriend booked us a weekend getaway to Ballyseedy Castle as a surprise while we were on Holiday in Ireland. We had so much fun exploring the castle and surrounding woods.
