Guest Reviews
- Franca S. (10/5): Mooiste uitzicht ooit - Het mooiste uitzicht dat ik ooit vanaf bed heb gehad. Geweldig mooi appartement, lekker ontbijt in de koelkast en fantastische gastvrouw. Alles was schoner dan schoon. --
- Alan (10/5): This was a great location for exploring all of Valentia Island and the Skellig coast. - Great location with wonderful views across the water to Portmagee and of the pasture land adjacent to the cottage. Our room and bathroom were stylishly decorated, with a table and two chairs to enjoy the view, and lovely drapes to draw over the huge picture windows at night. We were charmed by first hearing, then spotting, “Harry” the Ring-necked Pheasant, and were entertained by the hares, cows and calf that grazed outside the window.
The room also had a mini fridge, which our hostess kindly stocked with a delightful assortment of items for breakfast, including yogurt, fruit, water (thank you!), milk, bread for toast, and cereal. The fridge also had a little freezer compartment for our keep-cold bricks for our lunch cooler. There was also a Smeg toaster and kettle, and a coffee maker for delicious cups of Nespresso coffee pods. We really wish the bath had a standing shower, which is much easier to use, instead of a tub with a wand. That's just a personal preference.
- Benjamin (10/5): Absolutely perfect place to enjoy the Skellig Ring. -
- paula (10/5): I would stay again in a heartbeat! - I loved every moment. I love the beautiful spot, the lovely hostess Monica. I loved my gorgeous cosy room. I loved my views. I loved being so close to nature. I loved the old world feeling of the area and ventia island and Portmagee. I loved the crazy weather. I loved visiting Skellig michale and seeing the Gannet colony. Thank you so very much! I was sad to leave! Everything was amazing! I was not there to pick holes in anything and I was appreciative of everything. I was on a mission and my mission was accomplished. To visit this little spot of heaven!

- Jessalyn (10/5): Beautiful spacious place near Kerry Cliffs and Skellig Michael Tours! - Absolutely beautiful place to stay on Valentia island! Portmagee was just a short distance away, so access to the Kerry cliffs and Skellig Michael tours would be so easy! Monica was an excellent host and made sure we had everything we could need for a very comfortable stay!
- Andrea (10/5): The perfect home away from home. I can’t wait to visit again. - Monica has created the perfect oasis! Modern luxurious feel, very comfortable beds, lovely kitchen facilities so we could have breakfast before heading out for the day. Quiet. Beautiful views of the bay, Skelligs, sunsets. And Monica was the most friendly host! I will definitely be back! n/a
- Theresa (10/5): Monica was a wonderful host and we enjoyed our stay! Highly recommend! - Beautiful view, clean and comfortable.

- Sharon (10/5): Outstanding accommodation in a beautiful location! - Fabulous stay and our number one best accommodation option in a 3 week trip. Monica is wonderful and the place is impeccable, gorgeous view and location and very comfortable. It’s beautifully presented and we wish we could have stayed longer. This little island is very special, peaceful and so very beautiful. Leaving was hard and should have booked two days.
- Marcel (10/5): - What a great accommodation. We're blessed with great weather that gave us amazing views through the big window. Monica was a great host and helped us a lot. Snacks, coffee, cereals and fruits were provided . The accommodation has everything you need and is close to picturesque landscapes . We would love to come back in summer to see some puffins. We highly recommend this place
- Nick (10/5): The best view in 5 🌟 luxury! Thank you Monica 🙏🏻 - This has to be up there with the best B&B or guest houses you will be lucky enough to stay in!
The view is to die for & Monica is the perfect host. Monica gives you the warmest of welcomes & great information on the local area. The food & treats left for breakfast were an added bonus & such a lovely touch.
We will definitely stay again if visiting the area. Only having the one night and morning waking up to that view !

- Patricia (10/5): Lovely stay - The room had beautiful windows overlooking the water. The room was light filled when the curtains were open and pleasantly dark for sleep. Very clean, spacious and comfortable. Nothing.
- Rebecca (10/5): - Amazing location with incredible views.
- Kevin (10/5): -
- Warren (10/5): Highly recommended - Monica was very welcoming and friendly.. It was modern decor, amazing and comfortable bed, fantastic views, nice and warm, everything was new and kept well and spotlessly clean. A nice few surprises in the fridge! There was nothing we wanted for.. Just liked a personalised hotel! Nothing
- Merijn (9/5): Mooi, cpomfortabel verblijf op een schitterende plek langs de Skellig Ring - De gastvrouw was uitermate vriendelijk en heeft ons uitstekend geholpen met tips over de omgeving. Ze zorgde zelfs voor ontbijt terwijl daar helemaal niets over was vermeld.
- Joseph (10/5): Wonderful stay with a kind and thoughtful host - It’s a beautiful place to stay and enjoy the amazing area of Valentia Island and explore South Kerry. Monica is a very kind and responsive host who made us feel so welcome. Everything was excellent.
- Rob (10/5): Room with a view - Location with views over Portmagee is fantastc. Location is also central for activities/sightseeing on Valentia Island and Ring of Kerry. Monica is a wonderful host.
- Paula (10/5): A lovely stay in a lovely place - Our stay at watermark was wonderful. We enjoyed the spectacular views from the floor to ceiling windows. Our hostess was extremely accommodating with a delightful personality. Her knowledge of the area gave us additional places to see and they did not disappoint. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Nothing

Lots of parking and the room was so lovely, cosy, clean and just a really nice atmosphere with stunning views.

- Aoife (10/5): Fabulous views, huge bed, excellent stay - Gorgeous views, huge room, plentiful tea and milk and snacks, friendly host, fab bath. Very close to Portmagee and all the sights of Valentia Island. No complaints! Only thing I was missing was a good sized mug for tea :)
- Ryan (10/5): -
- Victoria (10/5): Amazing find, cosy luxury - Fabulous cosy room with views across to portmagee, hostess was really welcoming and lots of little extra that made it the best place we have stayed on our trip. Couldn't recommend more.
- Anne (10/5): Wonderful stay with a beautiful host who knows her local area and was happy to share info. - The property was amazing. Especially the host, Monica. She did everything possible to accommodate us with regards to the weather.
The room was very comfortable with an amazing view and even had a few items for breakfast, in the fridge, even though breakfast was not included in the rate.
Monica was also extremely helpful as I left a jacket behind. Could ask for nothing more. My only comment was that the shower was in the bath. It was really just a bath with a hand held hose. It could be an issue for anyone who may find stepping into a deep bath an issue. Just a heads up.
- Nico (10/5): Tolle Unterkunft - Eine tolle Unterkunft, die liebevoll und geschmackvoll eingerichtet ist!! Die Gastgeberin Monica hat uns herzlich begrüßt und uns für den nächsten Morgen auch ein süßes Frühstück mit Toast, Butter, Marmelade, frischer Milch, Joghurt und Obst sowie Kaffee und Tee bereit gestellt, was ja gar nicht inkludiert war... 😀 Für uns prima, da wir nicht noch einkaufen mussten, da wir nur für eine Nacht gebucht hatten ( leider!!)... Der direkte Panoramablick auf Portmagee und die Kerry Cliffs waren super!! Die Badewanne hat uns nicht gestört, wie in den Rezensionen zuvor erwähnt, da wir am Abend ausgiebig gebadet haben, was nach dem windigen Wetter gut getan hat. Alles Geschmackssache 😉 Nichts!
- Kirsten (10/5): -
- Belak Peter (10/5): - Nagyon kedvesen bekeszitéssel vartak, hangulatos makulatlan szoba.
- Priscille (10/5): - Magnifique chambre toute neuve avec une vue superbe. Tout est prévu dans la chambre pour le petit déjeuner. Bel emplacement en face de Portmagee sur la belle Valentia island. On peut difficilement faire mieux! Rien
- Kathleen and Denis (10/5): - We had a lovely two night stay. Our hostess Monica was welcoming and very helpful. The room.was beautiful with spectacular views and great attention to detail.

- John (10/5): -
- Luc (9/5): -
- Kevin (10/5): - Perfect blend of elegance and comfort. With stunning views, refined interiors, and exceptional service, it’s the ideal choice for a luxurious stay.”
- Barbara (10/5): Incredible place. Book just for the view but the whole thing is incredible - What can I say. The view. The location. The host. Everything was amazing. The small touches of lollies, fudge and chocolate won me over. You literally look out over to skellig Michael. We parked our car and walked over the bridge to Portmagee. Monica was fantastic and lovely.
Breakfast is set up in the room and even though we had incredible windows with the best views we still felt very private. Absolutely nothing. Regret we couldn’t stay longer.
- sheehan (10/5): - Perfect location, clean & welcoming. Monica was a lovely host. Beautiful views.

- Tara (10/5): Very enjoyable stay at Gabriel house guesthouse! - Charming & accomodating Hostess (Monica), absolutely top quality accomodation.
Slept like a log in very comfortable bed, gorgeous outlook over Portmagee. Excellent food referral. Nothing, but will be even more fabulous when landscaping done… and maybe some signage!
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Moskalenko (8/5): Very good -
- Roman (10/5): Stunning views, the room was to the highest standards, Monica was a perfect host. Can't recommend enough! -
- Hutchins (10/5): Wonderful place, book it if you can! - Loved the place the hosts and the location. So grateful for the snacks in the room as we arrived late Wish there was a window with screen that we could open to enjoy the fresh Irish air.

The treats and snacks that were left in our room were also delicious and very thoughtful. We had a wonderful time here. N/A
- Jan (10/5): Perfect! - Brand new accommodation on Valentia Island.
We were greeted warmly by our lovely host who was definitely there for us, but not intrusive. She showed us around our room for the night...so well designed with panoramic windows on 3 sides. So clean, with quality furnishings & decor. A really comfortable bed & every possible room addition made our stay perfect.
The bathroom had a stand-alone bath & was large & clean.
Although breakfast was not included, there was a fridge containing an abundance of breakfast goodies, as well as a coffee machine. There were also snacks, sweets, fruit etc.
Our host gave us helpful advice on where to eat in Portmagee in the evening.
Altogether a perfect stay - we'd have loved to have stayed longer. The only issue was the fact that it was very hot in the room, & the only window that could be opened was in the bathroom. We mentioned this to our delightful host who explained that planning refused to allow windows that could be opened due to winter weather conditions on the island which could possibly take out any window with an opening - fair enough! Maybe a fan could help a little.
- Neil (10/5): Fantastic stay for a trip out to Skellig Michael! - Room is Gorgeous - Monica is super nice- Really appreciated the breakfast fixings she left in the room. Location was very close to Portmagee Boat Marina. Nothing - perfect stay
- Eleonora (10/5): Exceptional -
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful accommodation, the host provided everything we needed. Wish we could have stayed longer.
- Katarina (10/5): Exceptional - incredible views, the apartment felt indeed luxurious and the host was just suberp
- Sven (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (9/5): Superb - Location is perfect if you intend going to skellig Michael, unfortunately the weather was not kind for us. Lot's to do locally though.
- Santina (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and tidy, very friendly owners, brand new, quiet Toilet seat had a crack and should be changed
- Evelyn (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tamara (10/5): Skellig Michael trip - Monica was a wonderful host, very welcoming. Our room was lovely with a beautiful view of the Harbor in Portmagee. We had a trip to Skellig Michael booked and were able to walk down in the morning for our trip. We would absolutely recommend staying with Monica!
- Hall (10/5): A very comfortable stay in the perfect location - Location, cleanliness and additional breakfast items provided FOC. Monica was the perfect host. Nothing!
- Tony (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful modern facilities, super clean and Monica was very welcoming. Easy walk over the bridge to town for dinner. Nice surprise of extra treats!
- Michele (10/5): Such an amazing stay! We miss it already. One of the highlights of our 3 weeks in Ireland. - The view!!! The facility is amazing and allows you to fully take it in with enormous picture windows. Monica does a great job with perfect snacks, enough for your own breakfast in a mini fridge. She was so helpful to us as we didn’t have a car, and she arranged for us to get to some further flung places. She took good care of us! Great communication as well. We really loved everything.
- Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
- Stephanie (8/5): Pretty view - check which bathroom - Incredible views, nice large king bed, and good breakfast options. The room was spacious and had large beautiful windows that look out onto the fields and water. It was very clean and comfortable. Great halfway pit stop for the night on the Ring of Kerry if you want to take your time. In the listing, there is a photo of a shower. It turns out there are 2 different spaces in the home, and in the one we had there was a stand alone tub with spray hose, not a shower. This could be an issue for people with mobility issues or if you specifically wanted a shower. We made it work, though.
- Sharon (10/5): Exceptional - Exceptional service, booked room only, but lovely treats and breakfast provided. Beautiful views, which the rain couldn't destroy, cosy and warm looking out. That i had to leave
- Lana (9/5): Superb -
- Sven (10/5): Exceptional -
- Will (9/5): Fabulous place close to nearby sites made even better by host Monica. - The on-site host Monica was so warm and helpful and the comfortable space was large and cool with giant windows looking out at nice views. The location was really good (we had a car): right across the bridge from Portmagee (Kerry Cliffs a MUST! I liked it way better than OVER-touristed Cliffs of Moher) and other sites on Valentia: Bray Tower. Minor: We never could figure out how to turn off the bathroom mirror/light over the sink and it was too late to contact Monica. Also, for stand up shower lovers, there's only a bath with a sit-in-tub hand-held shower attachment.
- Yelizaveta (10/5): Cozy place with fantastic views - Amazing location, very nice views, you basically have your own entrance and your own little yard with rabbits. Inside you’re welcomed with coffee machine, snacks and sandwiches. Tub in the bath was absolutely fantastic!
- Robert (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kathie (10/5): I was completely satisfied with my stay and am only sorry to think that I may never have the opportunity to return. - I loved the location, the view (both front and back), the decor, the value and the amenities. The hosts were friendly and helpful. The room was tastefully decorated and had so many nice touches. It was comfortable and luxurious. It was a bit difficult to find.
- Louise (10/5): Exceptional - Gorgeous brand new property. The view was sensational. Felt very private despite being on the ground floor. Host was amazing.
- Darren (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mandy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Janet (8/5): Quick overnight stay in a beautiful location lovely place with the extra touches. - Lovely set up with a great view and very comfortable. Only a bathtub with hand held shower.
- Doherty (8/5): Very good -
- Sue (9/5): Superb -
- Craig (9/5): Gigantic picture windows overlooking bay. - New, immaculately clean, great view, quiet, luxurious bed. No Air conditioning

- Eileen (10/5): One of the hidden gems of Kerry. - Monica was a great host and very welcoming.Views were spectacular of the surrounding countryside. Location within a short distance to the town of Portmagee.The accommodation was bright,fresh and spotless .
- Anna (10/5): Modern, clean, and very welcoming! - It was a great spot, very peaceful! The host was extremely kind and accommodating. Only feedback would be that there was only a bath, with a handheld shower with no screen.
- Elena (10/5): Super host - The room was spacious and modern, with a great view on Portmagee and the everything was spotless. The bed is a super king size and very comfortable, we had a great sleep. Monica is a great host and arranged us a nice breakfast for the next morning. Strongly suggested! Nothing, everything was perfect
- Steve (9/5): Superb -
- Minahil (10/5): A lovely stay! - The host was lovely and the facilities were excellent! The sound insulation isn’t perfect so you may hear your neighbors but it’s a minor thing
- Emma (10/5): A true gem of Valentia Island - Everything! Monica was wonderful, warm and welcoming.
Beautiful property. Lovely decor, bright and immaculate.
Provided bread, fruit, yoghurt, milk, water etc which was brilliant.
Location was great.
It was truly an amazing stay and we were sad to leave.
Thank you Monica! The room was a little warm.
But that’s more personal preference.
