I recently had the pleasure of staying at this amazing hotel, and let me tell you, it was an absolute 5-star experience! 🌟 The location was perfect, offering stunning views of Galway Bay and the local pier. The room itself was simply breathtaking, finished to an incredibly high standard. I loved the attention to detail, especially the beautiful Voya products in the bathroom. It even had a smart TV in the room, which was a great bonus. Shauna at the front desk was an absolute delight, making us feel incredibly welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast was a true highlight, with the most amazing pancakes you can imagine, all enjoyed with a view of the bay. The menu was well-priced and offered a great variety of options. The hotel had such a tranquil and relaxing atmosphere, making it the perfect place to unwind. Plus, they had parking available, and even electric chargers, which was super convenient. The flexible check-in process was a nice touch as well. I highly recommend this place, and I can say with certainty that I will be returning in the future. It's an absolute gem! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The host was welcoming, and the room was cosy and quiet. Less than 10 minutes drive from Ailwee cave and 35 minutes from the Cliffs.
We had 2 rooms, both had bathrooms and everything was nice and clean.

Very little choice of places to eat or have a coffee. Tea rooms not open at 11am on Thursday as suggested. Had a fab dinner at Monks and on a return visit next morning at 1130am had great tea n scones in front of blazing stove. Superb.

The hosts were very friendly right from greeting us upon arrival and giving us tips to serving us breakfast before we left. The full Irish breakfast was very good. We had dinner before arriving in Ballyvaughan, and only stayed for one night. We had a car, so it was easy for us to drive into the town centre from there. We would stay there again. We were given tips of sites to see when we left, and one we were glad not to miss was the Poulnabrone Portal tomb.

We only were able to stay one night. It was a great launch pad for visiting the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher. The people were friendly, the food was great and the pub was fun with local, live music!
We recommend it!

The Clare Way is a nice way for walkers.
The Clare Way is a nice way for walkers. There are at least two good places to eat out.
Some side roads are in a poor state of repair. Clare County Council need to fill the pot holes and try and keep the roads in decent repair. This includes some access routes to this property.

A beautiful traditional Irish village with all you need for a comfortable varied stay in Ireland. Situated between the stunning Burren and the cliffs off the Atlantic Ocean, and nestled on the south side of Galway Bay, Ballyvaughan is ideally located. There are a lot of places to visit in the area. You can swim in the bay or on the nearby Bishop's Quarter beach. In Summer or Winter there are lovely places to visit and in Ballyvaughan alone, the fabulous Monk's seafood restaurant is a great spot with super friendly staff, a warm welcome and really fabulous food. I cannot wait to go back to Ballyvaughan!

there was a Match-making Festival happening in September in nearby villages of west of ireland, named biggest party for singles in the world. this was the best accommodation in terms of crowd-avoidance and distance from local attractions. we could have stayed little longer...
Very friendly reception. The landlady is cordial and willing to provide information. The rooms were spacious, clean and in a quiet location on the Cliffs of Moher.
The house is almost in the center of the village. Sea, restaurants and harbor are within very short walking distance. A grocery store for shopping is only 50 meters away.
Breakfast was extensive and very good.
We would try again to book this accommodation on a renewed trip to this place.
We loved this B&B. we felt welcomed like we were family. my kids said it felt like leaving their granny’s house as we departed. It was clean, comfy, and safe, with a lovely breakfast that was my kids’ favorite since we left the US 2 months ago to travel Europe, Africa and Asia. we felt spoiled. <3 overall a great experience. we would definitely stay here again and plan to next trip to Ireland. :)
I would definitely recommend this B&B. Room was twice the size of the more expensive hotels we stayed in. Very comfortable with sofa, coffee table and chairs, overlooking fields with view to the hills. Comfortable lounge and breakfast room with view. Excellent breakfast. Good value and a pleasure to be in. Far better than the 4 more expensive B&Bs we stayed in.
This place is a gem. Karen was so friendly and helpful in every way. Our room was spacious, spotless, and the bed was quite comfortable. The "Irish breakfast" was the best we had throughout our visit to Ireland. Our stay at the Creggs helped make Ballyvaughan the highlight of our holiday. We recommend this place highly and hope to return.
Location is perfect to explore all of County Clare
A number of shops, bars and restaurants close by
Private safe car parking
A wonderful welcome - very friendly and accommodating hosts
Fantastic advice on things to do in the local area
The perfect breakfast - have as much or as little as you want, but i guarantee you will be satisfied
Excellent breakfast. Lovely clean room. Very nice & friendly owner. The room was as good as a hotel's and better than most. Nice and quiet with no noisy revellers shouting at 3am like I've often experienced in the best of hotels. Very close to the town so very handy to get to Ballyvaughan town centre. Would highly recommend.
Just wonderful in every way... The location, room, breakfast, lounge areas, Maria and Wolfgang. Kids adored hanging out by the fire and collecting spring water to drink. Very close to aillwee caves, easy drive to wild Atlantic way, Cliffs of Moher, Doolin, chocolate factory. Would highly recommend.
Hosts were very welcoming. Beautifully clean, appointed self catering Studio with fresh supplies of bread,milk, tea, coffee and cake. Perfect location for visiting Aillwee Caves and a good stop along The Wild Atlantic Way.
Lovely rural setting with a short drive to local town.
Pauline and Gerry welcomed us as old friends in their home, the hospitality was really beyond expectations. The house was super clean and I think I have never tried such good breakfasts. If you want to taste west Ireland staying in a super lovely place, this is the choice
The location was terrific- walking distance to a couple of restaurants in the village, plus close to the bus stop if you are not driving. Breakfast was lovely with French press coffee, delicious cheeses and pastries, plus choice of eggs and bacon or an Irish breakfast.
Perfect location for all the attractions in the Burren and less than a minutes walk to Ballyvaughan where there are lots of good restaurants and bars. Awesome host, we are happy to highly recommend it and would happily visit again.
I loved EVERYTHING about this place and hope we make it back to Ireland for we will definitely try to stay here again. The aesthetics and attention to detail were beautiful. We also loved the view and location.
Had a lovely stay, the hotel was top notch and I really enjoyed myself. However my stay was marred by developing a very bad back, so hotel staff helped me contact my insurance company.
The hotel is charming and Maria and Walter were very hospitable and welcoming.All of the detail that went into every room and the candle on the table at breakkfast.
Located in the center of Ballyvaughan. Breakfast was excellent with a choice of different dishes and a buffet. The Hotel also has a bar serving bar food.
