Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Valentia Island

Absolute recommendation! A little paradise in an impressive beautiful area of Ireland. Idyllic, animals right at the doorstep (dog, cats, ponies, donkeys), a very hospitable hostess and a super-equipped modern cottage! Ideal for exploring the area around the Ring of Kerry. We were thrilled and would recommend it to everyone! It should only be considered that the cottage is a little off the beaten path from the nearest village of Sneem (about 10 minutes' drive). For this, you have absolute peace and a stunning view of a beautiful landscape. It was hard for us to leave.

Beautiful town and lovely stay on the Ring of Kerry! The house was even nicer in person and Majella was so quick to let us in and gave us a helpful overview of the space when we arrived. She also even left us some snacks on the table! Super walkable to the little downtown area with restaurants and gorgeous sea views, plus the inn next door was a great spot for drinks. Everything was very clean and comfortable, wish we could have stayed longer!

Loved this location and this house! Lots of room! Comfy beds. Wish we could have stayed longer. Can't beat the view!!!

It is hard to describe the joy, beauty and warmth of the experience we had at Gretta's beautiful home. The location was beyond our wildest dreams, right under beautiful green hills of sheep and a short walk from an absolutely stunning beach. The home itself was incredibly thoughtfully laid out, decorated, and stocked with everything four travelers needed. However, the best part of our stay was Gretta herself! Her genuine and authentic hospitality, perfect local recommendations, and delicious homemade bread made our stay so special. Gretta and William were an absolute delight and we were all sad to wave goodbye. We will be back!

This was our first time to Ireland, and so glad we chose the Dingle Peninsula. This listing is exactly as shown on AirBnB, but in reality is more beautiful. It is very spacious, with a lovely great room (kitchen/dining) where we spent a lot of our time, but the side living room made a great jigsaw puzzle room. The laundry was also spacious, and once we Americans figured out all the electronics of the kitchen and laundry we were quite satisfied. We three couples each had a highly satisfactory bedroom and bath. The walk from the house to the "Star Wars Beach" gave us a chance to get to know many lambs and their mommies (it was lambing season), along with great exercise. The fresh air was so therapeutic. While it was a long trip to get out there from Dublin, it was well worth it. The 30 minute drive to Dingle was only a challenge because we had a van, and had to get used to its size on narrow roads. And Dingle itself is delightful. HIGHLY recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Andrea and John's townhouse in Dingle. It's beautifully and comfortably furnished. It has everything you need and is just a few minutes' walk from the hustle and bustle of Dingle town. John's parents live right across the street and are very welcoming and helpful. When we return to Dingle, we'll definitely stay there again.

We loved our stay. The view from upstairs was simply stunning and a wonderful place to sit and watch the Atlantic coast and big changing sky. Truely beautiful. The house is well appointed for self catering and the beach down the road a treat. We could easily have stayed for weeks.

Our second time as one week just isn't enough. Such a comfortable house and fabulous hosts. It's even better than the photos. Can recommend in a heartbeat.

For adventurous travelers looking for an experience rather than merely a place to stay, this place and location has a lot to offer. After staying at chalets and places convenient for one night stops, it was fun to drive through Glengariff Nature Preserve through the winding roads up into the hilltop location surrounded by woods with openings looking out over the beautiful hilly terrain. Chopping wood to heat the small apartment heightened the feeling of living as one of the locals for a while. We appreciated Gesine’s helpful notes to get there and enjoyed chatting with her about life in this peaceful place. While day trips taking the ferry to Garnish Island or driving over Caha Pass to Killarney National Park were nice, we are glad we took advantage of the location and spent time away from tourist-filled areas to enjoy quiet, peaceful hikes along the nearby Riverwalk and through some of Pooleen Woods. This was a great addition to our first-time travel experience in Ireland!

The property is close enough to enjoy everything Dingle has to offer but in a very peaceful location. The beds were so very comfortable and we were easily able to self cater. We loved seeing the chickens roaming around and thank you for the eggs Maunza!

Great Airbnb! Spacious, comfortable, and well stocked. I recommend this for future guests!

Everything was fine, we really liked it.

Mary was a true delight and the space was ideal for travellers. All the comforts of home and extremely comfortable. Highly recommend!

Check in was easy with clear instructions. Apartment has a dedicated elevator to open in the apartment. Great views , kitchen had adequate utensils for cooking. Bedroom was hugh with king size comfortable bed. The only downside was the water pressure in the shower. Walkable to all of Dingle restaurants and shopping.Two very nice grocery stores a 5 minute walk. A 5 star stay!

Top notch stay! Simon’s place is beautiful, clean, and spacious! The location is perfect -extremely walkable, but not noisy, etc! 5 minute walk to the bus stop. Excellent communication. Highly recommend this stay!

Clean, cute, and cozy! This was an ideal spot for a great starting point into the Ring of Kerry. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

We really enjoyed our stay. William was very response, helpful and friendly. The space was perfectly clean, comfortable, quiet and climate controlled! Thank you!

A “must” to stay at! Julie was the ultimate host! Any request was not an issue for her. The place was spotlessly clean, with easy to use amenities. It looked lovely and it felt lovely! We did not want for anything! It was an easy 30 minute stroll to the town centre too. Highly recommended!

Very cute, comfy place to stay! It's close enough to Dingle that it takes little time to get in town, but far enough to enjoy the peace of the countryside. Helen was very friendly and courteous, going so far as to take care of our drying laundry when it started to rain and we were away. Would definitely stay here again!

Can’t say enough great things about this place! Perfect location over The Fish Box, which we ate at both nights we were in town because it was that good. Easy walk to all the pubs & the water. He met us right as we got into town, was very welcoming, and had lots of recommendations for our stay. Highly recommend to anyone staying in Dingle!

Had a fantastic time using the space to explore Dingle for a couple of days. Just like its description the apartment was well appointed, cozy and close to everything. A lovely warm welcome along with some local history & recommendations for things to do. Wi definitely be back!

We loved our stay in this spacious and comfortable apartment right in the heart of Castlegregory. We appreciated the many practical touches, such as the well-thought-out kitchen, two couches, access to washer and dryer, front entrance with easy access to Tailor’s Row and back entrance with private parking. We liked Maura’s design aesthetics a lot (the clock, the electric kettle, the cool bedroom shades, etc). It was wonderfully and unexpectedly quiet after dark—no sounds at all from cars, planes, dogs, street conversations. We have no complaints at all!

It was simple to get to the airbnb. We had no problems at all during our stay. Everything was in perfect conditions and we were grateful to have so many appliances. Thank you! Great location, 15 min drive from Dingle.

Excellent location, beautiful apartment and fantastic host! Definitely the place to stay if you are going to Dingle!
