We enjoyed our stay so much. The hosts were so accommodating, the breakfast were great and the views "WOW" fantastic. The room was good size and the beds comfy. This is a little out of the way, but well worth it. More

Stayed one night on honeymoon in September but would have loved to spend longer here. Location was amazing - literally across the road from the beach and we could hear and see the waves from our room. Somewhat remote so would need a car to get there but plenty of parking. Breakfast was hearty and Bridie was a lovely host... More

If you look for a quiet B&B, in a great position and with an outstanding view, just over the beach of St Finan's Bay, convenient to visit Valentia Island and the ring of Kerry...well, Beach Cove is exactly what you need. We had a very large room with sea view, all was so clean and perfect. Breakfast is lovely, with... More

My husband and I spent 2 weeks in Ireland, staying at about 8 different places (yes, we were crazy), most of which were B&Bs. This was definitely our favorite. The drive there was nothing short of spectacular. We didn't have a problem finding it because, as other reviewers mentioned, there is a CHOCOLATE FACTORY less than a mile from it.... More

The Beach Cove B&B is located outside of Portmagee, on a lovely cove with a view of Skellig Michael. Our room was lovely, breakfast was varied, made to order and served in a bright sunroom. Bridie O'Connor is an excellent hostess, helpful and friendly. More

A very nice house, and we were given a whole suite, that is a bedroom, a separate large bathroom and a spare room! The bedroom had a large, modern bed with very comfortable mattress and a view of the beach. The bathroom was tidy and the shower had great water pressure. Breakfast was excellent with a few different options and... More

What a view from this cosy b&b close to the beach on St. Finan's Bay and overlooking the mistic Skellig Michael in the distance! We could even hear the sound of waves breaking on the shore while relaxing in our comfortable room... The location is absolutely fantastic,along the scenic Skellig ring, away from the busy circuit of the Ring of... More

Thanks so much to our hosts for their vision in building and maintaining Beach Cove B&B for all of us to enjoy. We stayed here two night to go the Michael Skellig Island where there is awesome birding, Gannets (migratory) and Storm Petrels, etc. When you climb the stairway to heaven at Michael Skellig, the early Christianity monk's simple stone...

We stayed there for 2 night and had booked the cottage which the travel books advertise as having a kitchen and being ideal for families. When we arrived Bridie told us she had a cancellation and she had moved us into the house. We told her we wanted to stay in the cottage and she told us people were staying... More

This place place bouts the best view in the county and it was a very nice view. You park at the B&B, then walk a ways, passing a hay field to the cliff for the breath taking view. My only complain, it is a little expensive and over priced but worth it. We did meet a couple who stopped to... More
