We made reservations 3 months in advance at the Ocean Crest. After driving 6.5 hours on curvy roads from Dingle, we were tired and ready to finally relax. When we arrived late in the afternoon we were told by the manager that they had overbooked and they didnt have a room for us! Thats it...your out of luck. Seriously....Who does... More

Excellent. Not a bad walk to the city center. Maybe 10 minutes. Lovely scenery, and the ocean is right out the window. Plus the food is great. More
