Waterfront holiday rentals in County Dublin

We had a fantastic stay at Max’s place! Max is a great guy - super welcoming, friendly, and always helpful whenever we had questions or needed tips. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The apartment itself was clean, cozy, and perfectly located to explore Dublin. It’s also a great base for day trips to the beautiful surrounding areas, like the stunning cliffs of Howth. We’d definitely come back and can highly recommend staying here!

John’s apartment was perfect for our three adults. We loved the location - great food and coffee and pubs within quick walking distance. The view of the water and the promenade for walking and biking is just great and you can even swim across the street, if cold water is your thing. Highly recommended.

We had the absolute pleasure of staying at this stunning accommodation. The place was beautiful, big, and clean. The host was incredible; super friendly, responsive and lovely. Eavan really made us feel welcome which made our stay easy and enjoyable.

Absolutely amazing apartment in a great location. Check in was super easy and Kristofor was more than happy for us to have an earlier check in time than Stated due to our early flight time.

We loved our stay here in Dublin. The location overlooking the water is absolutely beautiful. We felt that we could get to where we wanted to go on foot or with the train, DART, bus and Uber/taxi. Bernard was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. There is a restaurant and bar below the apartment(good food!)and can be loud if you are going to bed earlier but did not keep us awake. There are also multiple coffee shops, restaurants and a grocery store in the immediate vicinity. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

I stayed at James’ place with a few friends in May and we all loved it. The location in Blackrock is perfect: it’s calm, fairly quiet, right by the sea and not far from the city centre by public transport. The apartment is gorgeously decorated and very spacious, with a lovely living room and a brilliant kitchen for cooking! The bedrooms are also both en-suites, which is very convenient if you’re a group of 4 (effectively halving the shower time!). James was thoughtful and attentive as a host. He sent me clear instructions on how to access the property, recommended a series of restaurants, pubs etc, and regularly communicated with me after I arrived at the property to check if we needed anything! He also kindly left us a delicious loaf of soda bread, some Irish butter and jam, not to mention a bottle of wine! Last but not least, the apartment is well-equipped (as advertised), with everything you could possibly need, including great cooking equipment!

Ci siamo trovati benissimo, l'appartamento è in una zona centrale, ma comunque molto tranquilla. Vicino c'è la fermata della Dart e per arrivare in centro basta fare una passeggiata lungo fiume. Per quanto riguarda l'appartamento non c'è niente da dire, è perfetto! Ogni stanza è dotata di una stufa al muro e i letti sono comodissimi!

Everyone deserves to treat themselves on occasion, so if you find yourself in Dublin and wanting to indulge yourself you could not do better than renting this apartment. Not only is it very beautiful and modern, but every convenience is provided for. The hosts are extremely friendly and provided some excellent suggestions on a number of topics. The nearby neighborhood has most of what you might need and you can even reach the city within a 30 minute walk. The apartment is so modern that part of the adventure is figuring out how to utilize all the bells & whistles.....though even that is well documented. We could not have enjoyed our stay more and this apartment was one of the highlights of our vacation in Dublin.

Andrew’s place is amazing. Drinking coffee looking out at that view is what dreams are made of. Myself, my husband, and our three boys stayed there. There was plenty of room for all of us and lots of toys for the boys! My older two especially loved the bunk bed! The location is amazing as well. It’s a 10 minute walk (faster if you’re not walking with toddlers) to Howth Harbor. It’s also a nice walk away from Claremont beach! We loved every minute here and were sad to leave.

Great location and home for a family or larger group. Nice neighborhood that is very walkable to restaurants, LUAS, and busses. Hosts were very accommodating and responsive when we had questions. Unlocking and locking the door was a little challenging - perhaps more detail up front would be helpful. The home itself was a spacious ground floor with dining room, living room, and lovely outdoor terrace with koi pond. Lots of toys available for toddlers which was helpful. Bedrooms are nicely appointed and on the smaller side.

We were very lucky to spend a week away in Amaya's charming River Lodge located just outside the town of Kilbride and close to the beautiful Wicklow Mountains National Park. The cottage itself is well equipped, stylishly furnished and includes an incredibly comfortable bathroom. The cottage also provides access to a lovely garden and a small river providing you with everything you need to enjoy a lovely stay. Amaya is a very kind host, providing personal recommendations and always being available in case of any needs. We highly recommend this accomodation to anyone looking for comfort and tranquility while exploring the beautiful surroundings of the Wicklow Mountains.

A great apartment in a fabulous location right on the beach with great view of skerries harbour. Ideal for walking into the town of skerries. Would highly recommend this cosy apartment. Rory was very welcoming and helpful.

This is a lovely, spacious period house with lots of character in a great location. Nice place to stay for a family gathering with helpful hosts. This is a residential home so felt very much like borrowing someones house rather than an impersonal holiday rental. There is lots to do nearby with stylish eateries and drinkeries. 5 minutes from the sea with all year round swimming available for the hardy. There are a couple of saunas near the sea if you want to warm up too. We popped over to the James Joyce museum in a nearby tower and took the Dart into central Dublin- all very easy. Hosts were very helpful and responsive, providing plenty of support and information before check in and during stay as required. There is on site parking but the access is tricky for some cars due to angles,slopes etc (not uncommon in Dublin I understand). there is also plenty of free parking round the corner 5 minutes away. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to others.

This was probably one of the nicest places I’ve stayed in Ireland (we visit a lot). Absolutely stunning renovation. The view was amazing and James was a great host. Overall, I highly recommend staying here, but there’s a couple of things I found odd (considering the size of the house). For example, there’s no washer/dryer, ice maker/ice tray, microwave or kettle. These things would have made a world of difference.

We had a fantastic stay at Nuala and Adrien’s place! Their home was welcoming, warm, comfortable, and had everything we needed—including cozy beds for a great night’s sleep. The location was perfect, just a short distance from the city center (10-15 minutes max), with beautiful water views that made it even more special. The walking path along the water is wonderful for an early morning or later evening stroll to see the tide roll in and out. Malahide and Howth are just a short taxi or bus ride away! Again, just an overall great location. Nuala and Adrien were incredibly welcoming hosts, going above and beyond by providing Leap bus passes for our use and leaving snacks along with recommendations for all the best local spots to visit. Their hospitality made our trip even more enjoyable. If you’re visiting the area, this is an absolute must-stay! Highly recommend. Thank you again to our wonderful hosts!

The house is really nice and everything is according to the pictures. The tram station The Point is 10-15 minutes foot walk away, so you can leave your car in the street where you can park it for free. If someone sleeps downstairs a pump is really loud when water/the toilet is used.

Excellent location, spacious apartment and great view over the river. Even though in the heart of temple bar wasn’t too noisy

This was a great place to stay- a bit off the beaten track of the city Centre but very walkable (20 mins) to the tourist areas or an inexpensive cab ride. Great restaurants right across the street..local pubs or finer dining available, and a convenient store as well. The suite was exactly as described by David. He was quite helpful by sending detailed instructions on how to get into the apartment. And checked in to be sure we made it. The place felt very safe and was full of kitchen necessities such as butter, cream, spices, coffee, etc. Although the bathroom was small, it was all that was needed and included blow dryer,shampoo, conditioner, body wash. Overall the place is typical of a European flat… small but quite cute & functional! The only negative was that the couch/sofa was uncomfortable… but we spent minimal time on it, as we were out taking in the sites of the area. Would definitely recommend this as it was a nice place to call “home” at the end of a busy day. Thanks D & E

We’ve previously stayed in some lovely hotels in Dublin but this experience was far better. Views over the river Liffey, kitchen facilities, balcony etc. Exactly as described and right in the centre (but quiet), perfect!

We had a wonderful stay - the house was perfect with the most amazing views. Nuala was very helpful, friendly and very quick to respond to any queries. Top marks all round from us.

This AirBnB superceded my expectations it really is a little piece of Irish heaven. SO idyllic, waking up in a beautifully decorated and fully equipped apartment to sit and have a coffee on the patio with guinea fowl, peacocks and cats walking around whilst hearing the donkeys in the background, taking a walk around the well thought out grounds with all amenities available, to sit by the river before visiting the variety of animals really was the best getaway and escape from reality. Sean and Brian have done an absolutely excellent job at building the perfect place and your only regret in booking here will be that you didn't book long enough!! We had an amazing stay and Brian so kindly provided me with some peacock feathers that I had requested and we really couldn't be thankful enough. We love it here and this will always be our go to place whenever we come back to Ireland. Thank you guys so much and we can't wait to come back!

The location is fantastic, the apartment is right along the river with lovely views. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and welcoming. Filipe was an excellent host—communicative and accommodating for check-in and check-out. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Dublin!

I enjoyed every moment of our stay. This maisonette is a lovely and very nicely decorated home with all modern amenities. I also appreciated the generous supply of toiletries and towels. The view from the top floor is fabulous. The place is easily accessible by car, and probably by bus as well (I researched bus services from/to Dublin Airport but did not use them). Beautiful area with an amazing beach area for walks or taking a plunge into the Irish Sea (I left that to the well trained locals!). Nice restaurants at Skerries Harbour. Gerry's Fresh Foods is a great grocery store just around the corner, with "Café Jacques" on the first floor. All in all, a perfect spot for people who prefer a holiday off the beaten track.

Great location for walking the sea front, onto Clontarf village for restaurants and on the bus route for going in town. Well stocked with all the supplies we needed but it was very warm and sheets vs duvet would have been a welcome addition. We were just lucky with a warm spell.
