It was an easy process and a beautiful home.

This is a beautiful house that easily accommodated our group of 7. Spectacular views of the Atlantic, Galway Bay and Doolin below. A couple of concerns. The manager was not very communicative and slow to respond to questions. They could use more written instructions to help take the guess work out of operating the household equipment, recycling and garbage processes etc. For example, there were no extra garage bags and when I e-mailed the manager to ask about, she didn’t respond for several hours. So I went to the local store and purchased a roll; while I was at the store she dropped off a roll. Questions were usually addressed but with a slow response time ( several hours). I also sent a message to her when. We were leaving, to thank her for the stay and pointed out some concerns about some unsafe furniture in the living room. No response, which was a little disappointing, as I was just trying to be helpful.

Property is as described and worked well for our family group of 10. Beautiful views and close to Doolin.

Our stay at the Cliffhouse was simply Heavenly! We stayed on our first trip abroad with our family (my wife and I and 7 kids). The Cliffhouse was amazing - fabulous house and the views are as advertised. This was a perfect base for exploring the Cliffs of Moher and taking in Doolin (we are huge Irish music fans and we were NOT disappointed). I highly recommend this beautiful home to anyone, especially large families. The kids had a fabulous time. Hosts were awesome and responsive, although we have no issues.
Thanks for an unforgettable time!

Your just a couple mins from the town Doolin, the ferry to Aran Islands, Doolin Cave, the cliffs of Mohr, and Gus O'Conners. This place was massive and the beds were very comfortable. There were 3 living room areas. Extremely large kitchen to cook a large family meal if you want. Gas station right at the bottom of the hill. You cannot hear or "sea" the neighbors. The sunset is fantastic from thus overlooking the ocean. You are probably 6 mins from downtown Doolin. Plenty of parking and a ramp into the house. Take the ferry roundtrip to Inis Mor, come back on the 415 boat and then hit the 5pm doolin ferry cliff cruise. Would definetly stay here again.
Cons:
The internet wifi did not work while we were there, but we were only there between dinner and breakfast daily as we were out exploring out exploring.
The washer and dryer seemed to be undersized for compared to the American versions so you will do way more loads so plan your time accordingly. These are pretty close to the same sizes we have encountered in other properties in Europe.
Needs a sign at the end of the driveway with the house name.
We had a plumbing issue upon arrival but we had to immediately leave for dinner anyway and when we returned they had resolved it, it must have been a super easy fix .

WONDERFUL location, space and communication

We would give this property a 9.75 out of 10.0. The home is beautiful and very well constructed. The beds and linens were very comfortable. The property manager was helpful as well. The only critique is minor: we would have like to have known in advance that there would be no coffee filters or paper towels. The WiFi is rather spotty, but we didn't need the internet to enjoy our stay. We look forward to a future visit to this property and highly recommend it to any traveler to Doolin!

Would rent again in future.

Cliffhouse is in an ideal location however, this property was sadly in need of maintenance, upkeep, and a deep cleaning, especially the windows so you could enjoy the beautiful view. Three of the showers either leaked or did not drain properly.
There were no written or verbal instructions on how things worked.

The house is great. It is so beautiful and spacious! We had 9 family members and there was plenty of places in the house to have quiet time. Plenty of room outside for children to run around. The beds were very comfortable. Kitchen is well equipped.
One suggestion is that there be a few more towels. There was only 1 bath towel per person and only 5 hand towels to share. Not enough for a week’s stat. Except for the master bedroom, most of the towels were thin. More and better towels would require less washing of towels and save on electricity.
The location was perfect. It as easy ride to town and many attractions.

The property was spectacular for our family, which ranged in age from 2 to 62. Very large house for the area and large, comfortable rooms with plenty of space to spread out.

We absolutely loved our stay at Cliffhouse from 5/11-5/14. We were celebrating my dad’s 80th birthday with 3 generations! The owner, Anthony, communicated clearly leading up to our stay. His property manager, Deidre, answered all our questions when in town. It was so easy to text with her. The house is comfortable, terrific mattresses and beautiful views of Doolin’s hillside. We hope to visit again

This property was amazing and the views outstanding. We were a family of 11, ages ranging from grandparents, grown children and 5 grandchldren aged 4-11. We all had plenty of space, the children enjoyed being outside. We came for a family wedding, we could not have had a better experience

Fantastic house with plenty of space for a group. Well furnished and clean bedrooms and bathrooms. 4 rooms have en suites which was brilliant to have some privacy while staying with a group. Would highly recommend.
4.8
The size and space of this property shocked us. There are 5 huge bedrooms, 4 en-suite, 3 Sitting rooms, and a fantastic kitchen diner. The power showers are powerful and the cleanliness superb with enough pots and pans to cook for an army.
Great property, fabulous views on a clear day and warm and cosy on a bad one.
The beds are extremely comfortable and overall no complaints, We will be back as it is less 2 hours from home.

Amazing house with amazing views. We were so sorry to leave & we’ll definitely be returning.

This is a beautiful and spacious place with wonderful views. You don’t see any other houses nearby and it is not too far (3-4 km) from town. Great for a large family. Could use a little maintenance on fridge (ice maker). No personal contact from property manager - only texts but that was fine. We would definitely stay here again - it is a beautiful area.
