Hyped up hotel but not worth what we paid.

The staff was very friendly to my family and check in was fast. We did not get an over view of the property, only that there are children times to pool amd here is your key. I would have like to know restaurant times for breakfast and happy hour and amenities of the property. I had to call down for wifi access, but the receptionist was very nice. I also did not expect the room only parital made up (2 or 3 bed) and no refreashment of coffee or water. Maybe this was the eco-friendly side? Upon check in, we noticed a shower issue and it was fixed the next day. Thanks but maklde for a noisy night. I would probally not stay here again based on the price I paid.

The property was in a perfect place on the beach, quiet and luxurious on the inside. The pool and jaccuzi were a nice addition, both very warm. Great for a family as we had two kids and they had thier own bed. We had a king size. Best sleep in a hotel. Had a nespresso machine for coffee in the room, which is a nice touch. Beautiful walks on the beach in the evenings after a busy day in the city of Cork. About 40 min drive to the airport on a main highway most of the way, 30 from Cork, 20 from Midleton and about 25 to Cobh. Breakfast and dinner was amazing although I would reccomend eating around the other small towns for experience purposes.
Only thing that might be missing is a small convenience store (about 15 min drive)or gift shop and a fridge. I still would reccomend this over hotels in Cork, Cobh and Fota Island.

Lovely stay

We had our daughters christening here and we absolutely enjoyed our stay. Tara from reception was so kind and friendly, my 3 year old loved her, she kept wanting to back to the reception.

The rooms were clean and spacious, there was an issue with the shower—it wasn’t providing hot water at the time of the stay. However, this problem was outweighed by our positive experience with the staff, who were so kind and welcoming. Overall experience was good because of the staff's friendliness

Great stay, apart from the girl at the pool

We all really enjoyed our stay at the Garryvoe hotel. The rooms were great and the service in the restaurant was fabulous. The only negative for us was the young girl in the pool reception (with the red curly hair) She was extremely rude and spoke to us in a very condescending and agressive manner, on more than one occasion. She should not be dealing with the public with an attitude like that to be honest. Thank you

Garryvoe is a super Hotel set in the middle of nowhere but that doesn't matter because the hotel has all you need.
The service is excellent and food topnotch, our only crib was that we had to call reception every time we wanted the heat on, and it didn't always seem to work! A small matter but important at the same time if it were winter when we were there. A lovely base to work from and lots in the area to see, beautiful walks, beaches, and Ballycotton is lovely.

The service was very bad especially at breakfast. The staff were clearly new and didn’t have a system to follow. Food was fine and the room was nice and spacious. We enjoyed the beach but wouldn’t return based on the service unfortunately.

A large but creatively and tastefully extended family hotel set in a beautiful location. Exciting interior decor. The only irritating thing was trying to connect to connect to the WiFi.

Fantastic stay

Lovely hotel. Perfect for a few days away with a family.directly across is a beach and a playground. Only 5 minutes drive to castlemartyr and 20 minutes into Cork city. All the staff were helpful and polite from the moment we checked in. The pool area is really nice and they have a water exercise pool which is a nice touch. The hotel bar is modern and clean. Great stay.

Good enough quality for price

Very nice hotel. Clean and comfortable. Restaurant and bars well decorated. Only issues were noise level coming from adjoining rooms, and bathtub clearly had been left there from before the revamp- something out of a 1* BnB.

It was just a stopover for one night. Wish we could have stayed longer. This is a beautiful hotel in a great location. The staff were very helpful, friendly and informative. Really enjoyed our stay & we'll be back at another time.

Anniversary trip

There is so much to enjoy about this hotel and location, but unfortunately the lack of heating was a huge issue for us. We ordered room service for our first night, the service was excellent and the food tasty and satisfying. However,there is no joy in sitting in a lovely, spacious bedroom if you must wear a jacket and scarf to remain warm. We were given a small plug-in radiator on our first night. The heating system was working on our last night - such a difference.

We loved everything about this hotel. It was very family orientated. The arts and crafts for the kids every night was a welcome addition. It's proximity to the beach was brilliant. There were fairy doors on every corridor which both my daughter and son loved.

Lovely big bright room, very clean. Pool lovely changing facilities very good. Location across from the sea is beautiful, great for walks.
With the exception of the lady on breakfasts on our second morning and one gentleman working in the bistro the remainder of the staff could have been a little friendlier. Food in the bistro very pricey and not great selection would have expected better.

I loved looking out at the water and a sheep farm. Every employee was nice and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms were spacious and clean. Bed was pretty comfy. The WiFi was a little wonky. They could maybe use a booster or two for guests on upper floors. The pool was gorgeous. The fairy doors scattered around were cute. I would stay here again. Two small cons are the limited pool hours for children and the breakfast starts a little late for me. I’m used to a 6 am or 7 am start.

Pros and cons but overall happy

So I have mixed emotions about this hotel. The staff was wonderful. The breakfast was great. The room was very large and comfortable. It’s nice being right by the beach. On the other hand the area is very secluded with one shop next to the hotel and much of anything else a 5 minute minimum drive away. They do have a bar and restaurant but it wasn’t great for our kids who were tired nd could have used a quicker and more kid friendly food option. This just takes planning and knowing to eat or grab food while out. If you don’t have kids the hotel bar/restaurant would probably suit of a little pricey (not extravagantly pricey though). My primary complaint was having a room right above the health club. We could hear the music from their classes. And being on the far end of the hotel WiFi was spotty at best. Next time I’d request a room away from the health center.
