Guest Reviews

• Joelle (10/5): - Great stay and friendly Irish welcome! Would recommend
• Razmik (6/5): - Great staff. Good breakfast. Great location and view. Everything was great EXCEPT the bed, the mattress, the pillows and the duvet. We struggled to sleep. Also, there were people talking just outside our window until 3:30 in the morning. Too many bars nearby.
• Diana (8/5): - Great location for exploring the Dingle peninsula. Hotel is a bit old and could use some updates, but it was clean and had a friendly staff so it served our purpose of having a comfortable place to stay where we could walk to restaurants and shops and drive the scenic drive around the peninsula.
• Michael (10/5): - Staff was very friendly and breakfast was excellent.
• James (10/5): - The Waterfront is cute and conveniently located along the waterfront. Friendly staff with great recommendations nearby. Definitely try and visit Foxy John’s, Kennedy’s, or Dick Mack’s for a pint. And definitely drive the Slea Head loop.
• Ralynn (10/5): - It was a beautiful view, nice rooms & close to everything
• Wendol (10/5): Very nice little room - This location was great. We were across the street from the waterfront. The room was kind of small, but it had everything we needed and was in excellent condition.
• Tammy Ann (10/5): - Can’t say enough good about this gem of a hotel. Room super comfortable, location is minutes from everything by foot. Angela was so sweet and made the yummiest breakfast. Would for sure recommend to anyone.
• Sayaka (10/5): - I loved the complimentary Irish breakfast in the morning—they offered both a traditional and a vegan option. I’m not vegan, but I really enjoyed the vegan Irish breakfast as well. The Irish oatmeal with Bailey’s was such a delightful touch! I would highly recommend this B&B to anyone visiting Dingle.
• Ericka (10/5): - The Waterfront was a lovely place to stay, as it's location was very convenient to many places we wanted to see. The view from the room was lovely, as it looked out onto the water. I
• Olivia (10/5): - Anne was amazing. Very informative, made our stay feel welcome, and even offered to wash our swim stuff after a beach day. 10/10, would stay again
• Kallie (10/5): - Great stay and super helpful. Just wish the beds were a little bigger
• Janice (8/5): - Loved the location of this B & B. It was a fun choice. I would give it an 8 out of 10.
• Leanna (10/5): - This was a great location for visiting Dingle. The room is small but we weren't there much. The staff was GREAT! Helpful and nice.
• corinne (6/5): - The property overall was fine But DO NOT book the budget room we couldnt even fit 1 suitcase in there and the shower was in a cupboard as was the toilet Very Unsatisfactory
• Rachael (8/5): - The breakfast was good and the location was perfect!
• Jeff (10/5): - Our host? Anne , was wonderful. Fresh made quick breads and scones in the morning. Help with recommendations in town. Little extras like helping us prepare a picnic lunch was very much appreciated.
• stephen (8/5): - small, quiet, great view of the water
• Jeffrey (6/5): - This hotel is in a great location right on the harbor. The woman who met us and served breakfast to us was AWESOME. Had a lovely conversation with her at breakfast. And breakfast was great. That said, these positives could not over come the EXTREMELY TINY room we had. Our room had no view of the harbor, we could barely open the bathroom door because it hit the bed. Airplane bathrooms are bigger, and the shower was shoehorned into a closet. The staircase was so narrow it was difficult dragging out bags up the stairs. Ugghhh
• Margot (10/5): - This waterfront property was perfect for our stay! We went to restaurants nearby. I was able to run the waterfront area in the morning.
• Jeremy (8/5): - They tried hard and for the area did well.
• Terry (10/5): Waterfront good - Found this place on Hotel.com. Met all of my needs for a 3 night 2 day exploration of the Dingle Pennisula. Support it staff central location
• Diana (6/5): - Great Location
• Todd (6/5): Tiny - Room was very, very small. Not possible to lay a standard carry on size suitcase on the floor and still be able to walk around bed. Toilet and shower were in tiny separate closets. No hot water in shower one morning.
• Robin (10/5): Wonderful hostess and location! - We had a fabulous 2 night stay in Doolin
• Amelia (10/5): - Lovely, small hotel right on the marina in the very nice town of Dingle. No lift, so getting the suitcases up the very small staircase was a challenge, but not a big problem. Very nice staff person at check in. Street parking.
• Laura (10/5): - View was great. Room was nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, in one of our rooms the toilet required flushing at least 5 times per flush to empty the bowl for the entire time we were there (2 nights).
• Terrence (10/5): - We had such a lovely time in Dingle! Our stay at the Waterfront was perfect. Ann, our front desk contact there, was just great to us, and so helpful on places to go! I truly hope to return to Dingle and to the Waterfront again, Thank you so much!
• Andrew (6/5): - The property was pretty and very and close to all the restaurants and pubs. The room we had was VERY small. That was the only downsize to our stay,

• Nicholas (8/5): - Room was smaller than expected but it was a well taken care of bnb

• Thomas (10/5): - Excellent property and very friendly! I left my jacket there and they mailed it to our next hotel!! Talk about service. Can’t wait to go back to Dingle!
• Mary (10/5): - This is an older facility - the room is small, but clean. The staff is wonderful. Parking was free on the street. Our room faced the harbor - beautiful - even with lousy weather. Not much open at night due to poor weather. We managed to fine a good pub. Breakfast was wonderful!
• Margaret (10/5): - Service and location were excellent!
• Wojtek (6/5): - Little dated, bed was comfortable, thin walls, you can hear everything.
• Jane (10/5): - Very comfortable and clean. Great location.
• Trudy (6/5): - This property is clean and the staff very nice and helpful. Our room was small and somewhat noisy. It is an older building so walls are thin and we could hear the people in the next room talking. There is Parking available on the street in front of the building and it is free however there is not always a space available. There is a parking lot across the street that is free from 5pm to 9am. Outside those hours you have to pay to park.
• Emily (10/5): Waterfront Views - Such a great location, especially with a waterfront view room! It was nice to have a little more space in the room after several locations with tighter quarters.
• Jennifer (10/5): - The town of Dingle is just amazing and this hotel is so amazingly positioned. It is a cute little bed and breakfast type vibe. Walking distance to everything you might want. The lady at the front is so incredibly helpful. Would 1000% come back
• James Aaron (8/5): - Older house. You could clearly hear people in their own rooms whether they were talking or coughing.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location with easy parking nearby and fantastic views. Friendly staff. Only issue was comfort of bed...sagging in middle and coils felt through mattress.
• Richard (8/5): - Nice and roomy. Close to everything. Nice harbor view.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Not what we expected.
• Robert (10/5): - Charming very tidy, well maintained hotel nestled in the middle of choice restaurant, artisans and other quality vendors. Features a beautiful view of Dingle Harbour. Attentive, friendly staff. I would return for another stay here easily. Fantastic & friendly seafood only restaurant, Out Of The Blue, only a short walk from the front door.
• Sally (10/5): - Very nice rooms and view. The girls at front desk were very kind and helpful.
• Teresa (10/5): Ireland Road Trip - Location was perfect, hotel was very clean, the room was charming, the view amazing. Great town and loved that it was walkable. Chloe who checked us in was wonderful. I definitely recommend this hotel.
• Cornelia (10/5): - Fast check in by friendly staff. Lovely seaview from clean and comfortable room.
• Wendy (10/5): - Tory did a fantastic job at getting us checked in early so we could go on a fishing trip. Check in and out was easy. Coffee was good. Room was lovely.
• Randy & Jo (10/5): - Location was ideal. We loved the waterfront location, restaurants and pubs all close by, town too. Room is small but clean and comfy, with a nice view of marina and waterfront. Highly recommend!
• Janan (10/5): - What a perfect location with a beautiful view of the harbor. The staff provided great guidance on restaurants and things to do
• Annette (10/5): - Loved our room with views of the harbor. Was able to park right in front. Staff was wonderful. Wish we could have stayed longer!
• Chris (10/5): - This was a super cute little hotel by the water. Spacious! Comfy bed. Nice shower. We had a garden view room. Anne at the front desk was LOVELY! So sweet and great recommendations! Everything is walkable!
• Deborah (8/5): - Wonderful stay at the Waterfront, Annie our hostess was kind enough to anticipate our arrival and block of street parking directly in front of the B & B for us. She also gave us a recommendation for dinner that evening that was affordable (The Fish Box) and good. Would recommend.
• Christie (10/5): - The room is small but as long as you are ok with that, the sea view was beautiful and it was walkable to shopping, restaurants, and the Dingle Sea safari. Staff was very friendly and breakfast was delicious.
• Andrew (10/5): - Very nice rooms in a great location.
• Trevor (10/5): Road trip Dingle - Small hotel, very clean, great location and view of the marina very friendly staff, Great value for money & great breakfast
• Alexandria (10/5): - Loved this place and Dingle overall!

• Mark (10/5): - Quiet comfortable and good kind service. Thoroughly recommended.
• Bryan (8/5): - Great place, wonderful inn keeper. Very quiet.
• Cheryl (10/5): - Ann went above an beyond to help us. Gave us things to do, excellent directions, very helpful. The location was perfect.
• Robert (8/5): Room with a view. - Room was clean and met basic needs. A little on the small size but adequate. Room had a nice view of the waterfront and the staff were friendly.
• mary (10/5): - What a wonderful time I had at The Waterfront when I stayed on the Dingle peninsula! Everyone that worked there was very gracious, kind, and most helpful. The room was a delight, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend any traveler booking accommodations with this wonderful and charming guest house. I look forward to returning next year.
• Andrew (10/5): - Excellent location within easy walking distance of town, welcoming host who shared very helpful recommendations for sights and meals, perfect spot from which to explore Dingle peninsula.
• Rhenee (10/5): - On the main road, may not be the best option for a light sleeper.
• Doug (6/5): - The property needs to better represent this is a B&B. I do not recall seeing anywhere in the listing that it was not an Inn. Stairs were steep & narrow, walls are thin and there are signs stating to be respectful to your neighbors and keep any noise to a minimum. Breakfast needs to be scheduled with the host and is prepared by the host (B&B style). That being said, they were very courteous and attentive. Bed was very hard window to room is directly above the sidewalk of the main street through town so we heard people and cars much of the stay…
• NICOLE (10/5): - Very friendly welcome, and easy to access Dingle.
• Matt (6/5): - Hotel was potentially lovely, but I'd picked the only open room (a small double) and it was very very small - we put luggage into the shower due to the lack of room. That was totally my fault. We'd pre-arranged for an early checkin - but staff was not present at the site until normal checkin. Staff also wasn't present on site for morning breakfast until a bit over an hour late. The TV in our room sporadically lost signal, as did the WIFI. I tried using Expedia to message the property about these problems, but they eventually stopped responding (they manage multiple properties and it was a busy weekend in Dingle). On the brighter side, breakfast was very good. The location was terrific. Staff was pleasant enough and certainly worked hard.
• Antonia (6/5): - Very tiny room.
• Barbara (10/5): - Ok
• Joanna (10/5): - Anne had thought of EVERYTHING before we even realized we would need it. The room was comfortable, clean and spacious. The breakfast was amazing and the entire experience was full of little “extras” that made the trip especially enjoyable.
• Erin (8/5): - The location is fantastic. Check-in was easy and fast. Ann was great at getting us settled, dining recommendations and sorting our breakfast.
• Lea (8/5): Upgrade the size - Tiny…I couldn’t leave my suitcase in the room. Get a larger room or ask how many people can actually fit. The service was amazing…just couldn’t move at all in the room
• Krysta (10/5): - Ciara was so welcoming and the place was just perfect in every way!
• anne (10/5): Family party - Wonderful really comfy spotless clean cosy and staff were amazing would go back in an heartbeat
• Robert (10/5): Sunny Dingle - very close to downtown Dingle. Easy to find and has a great view of the harbor. Parking is the only challenge, however, the hotel blocked a spot for us in front of the hotel - nice touch. Sunny and bright location, would stay again.
• Tara (8/5): - Quaint and quiet.
• Johanna (8/5): - Great location across the road from the water
• Benjamin (8/5): - To start, the hostess was wonderful, kind, and helpful. Still, I'm pretty sure we did not get the room I booked, a double deluxe water view. The picture showed a room with a double window overlooking the harbor. Our room had a single window and was the smallest hotel room I've ever seen, much less stayed in (room 5, 3rd floor). I was able to look into room 1 as it was open for cleaning. It was still small but larger with a larger bed and the double window from the listing I booked. The property is very well-maintained, but if I return to Dingle, I will make sure not to encourage this level of claustrophobia.
• Anne (10/5): We had a nice stay - A lovely spot. Wonderful hospitality! Nice breakfast and tea!
• Jonathan (10/5): Loved our stay - The Waterfront B&B was the perfect base camp for trekking out and exploring the Dingle peninsula. The staff was incredibly charming and were ready to field any request. The full Irish breakfast was especially delicious, and the room itself was cozy, comfortable, and quiet. Plus it's a short walk to everything Dingle has to offer. Will definitely set up camp here again for a longer stay next time.
• Lizzie (6/5): - The staff at The Waterfront was extremely friendly and gave us a free breakfast. However, our room was small enough for us to reach across the entire room.
• Isabella (2/5): - Terrible commujication
• Shannon (8/5): - The staff is so kind and responsive. The location is great and in walking distance to shops and restaurants.
• William (10/5): - Very nice base for family event. Lovely hosts
• Alicia (10/5): Watch the sunrise on Dingle Harbor! 🌅 - We had a lovely stay at the Waterfront! You can not do better on location - the building is right across from the Dingle Harbor and we got to watch a beautiful sunrise over the harbor! The room was very clean and a bit small, but perfect for a couple! The hosts were also very communicative and went out of their way to make sure that our after hours check-in went smoothly. We overall really enjoyed our stay at the Waterfront and would stay again in a heartbeat!
• Stacy (10/5): Lovely place!! - We loved staying at the waterfront in dingle! Dingle was the highlight of our trip, we were there during the off season and I’m happy we went then so we could experience the quaintness of the city without all the people. The whole experience from check in to check out was great! Really good made to order breakfast! Thank you for making our stay in Dingle great!
• Noelle (10/5): Perfect waterfront stay! - Clean, comfortable, and friendly! The perfect stay. I wish we had had another day there!
• Joanne (4/5): - This is the smallest room I’ve ever stayed in. Two people couldn’t stand in it. One had to sit on the bed. There were three closet doors. One has the world’s tiniest commode and basin. The next is a closet but not large enough to put more than one suitcase and the third is the shower! Not for more than one person! Budget room, my ass. Two flights up.
• Viet (10/5): - Beautiful little town, with a very sweet landlords at the front, everything is within a walkable distance, and the property was very nice and clean.
• Laura (10/5): Don’t skip this site!! - Great stay- lovely host. Everyone was very kind, and gave great recommendations. Would 100% recommend this site. I would also recommend going with the larger/ocean view room- it’s worth it!
• Denis (8/5): Enjoyable stay - Very convenient with a restaurant and bar downstairs.
• Sara (10/5): - Walking distance to many pubs and shops. Gorgeous waterfront views. Incredibly friendly staff
• Deirdre (10/5): - Fantastic warm cosy room. Shower spotlessly clean, wonderful welcome from Ann. The Kerry people know how to do an Irish welcome. Real people!!! Will definitely book again.
• Cameron (10/5): - Had a great stay here! The breakfast was delicious, and the room was small but comfortable
• Pat (8/5): - Had a great stay. Small rooms, but we knew that going in. Staff great, clean and right on the water.
• Deborah (10/5): - Anne, greeted us and was so nice from the onset. The parking lot was across the street and €1\hr or free on the street parking if you can get one. The harbor is right across the street, too. Dingle was a surprise. It is a quaint little village with unique shops. I recommend a stop here even if you don’t spend the night. Because of an injury we got 1 day behind on our schedule. Anne helped us re-route ourselves. Our economy room had everything we needed- ensuite bathroom and kettle with tea and coffee. Mattress was comfortable, too. Very clean. Highly recommend the Waterfront.
