Lovely Quiet Galway Getaway
The apartment is absolutely lovely - quite a nice view of Galway Bay. We appreciated the relative peacefulness of the neighborhood. We could easily walk to Galway City Centre and the Latin Quarter, but then get away from bustle. There are some lovely pubs, coffee shops, and take-aways nearby to enjoy and a walk along the Prom is a delight. The unit was spotless, we certainly appreciated the secure off-street parking, and are looking forward to another stay in the future.

Sean is very friendly and welcoming! The place is a bit dated, but that’s part of the charm! The view of the bay from the balcony is beautiful and relaxing and the convenient location to many good restaurants and coffee shops made it a perfect place for us to stay!

Very nice unit in quiet area
This unit was in a quiet location yet within walking distance to restaurants and a short walk to the city center. Sean personally met with us at check-in, explained the unit amenities and even suggested a great place for dinner nearby! Parking on-site was a bonus. Would definitely recommend this place!!

Location/view was the only good thing!
This is a weird vacation rental! This apartment (#4) has exterior grade self closing doors separating bedrooms and within the hall that slam if you don’t have the wooden wedge in. Very dated interior, light bulbs burnt out and bedside table lamps that can’t be plugged in. Very sparse kitchen, no laundry detergent (some lame excuse that someone was allergic to the detergent they use to provide) and pans that should have been replaced ages ago. Beds were uncomfortable and not enough pillows. This is also the first vacation rental that I couldn’t communicate with the owner via WhatsApp or just be provided with lockbox/key information. The view/location is the only thing going for this place!

Amazing views of Gratton Beach and across Galway Bay
Our week in this 4th floor apartment wasn't the best for weather but my goodness when the sun shines, the view is fabulous. And when the wind lets up (and with a fresh coffee in your hand), sitting out on the balcony is a joy! We loved the location too. Just a 5 minute walk to Salthill with all it has to offer but far enough away to not be disturbed by the hustle and bustle. A 15 minute walk in the other direction (25 minutes if you take the more scenic route alongside the causeway) takes you to the heart of Galway. We've much more we want to see of Ireland but I'm sure at some point we'll come back to Galway and when we do, I hope we'll be able to stay here again.

Wonderful beach home!
First off the owner was very easy to contact and things went exactly as he had informed us. Home was very clean, well stocked and easy walking distance to all that Galway has to offer. The view is spectacular! I dropped an earring down the drain and the owner kindly coordinated a plumber for me to fish it out! Lovely vacation spot!

Great apartment in a stunning location
The apartment couldn't be in a better position - looking out to sea and overlooking the promenade. The balcony is a perfect place to watch the world go by and only a few minutes' walk to beaches, bars and restaurants and 15-20 minute walk into Galway City Centre. Galway is a marvellous vibrant city and the surrounding countryside is stunning. Sean and his family were so friendly and helpful and the weather was incredible!

Super apartment and location
Very nice and spacious apartment, with great views out onto Galway bay. Well located for trips into city (15 minute walk) or west into Connemara. Good local shops, particularly Mortons or Galway (2 minutes away) which sells all sorts of delicious foody treats, fresh bread etc. Parking in lock up garage on ground floor was very useful. Owner Sean and son Cathill were very friendly and helpful.

The apartment had a terrific view of the bay and was in a very convenient location. Downtown Galway was an easy 30 - minute walk away and the local Salthill neighborhood had plenty of stores and restaurants. Sean met us and showed us around the apartment and also told us where the grocery stores were. Very helpful.

Couldn't have ask for a better place to stay. Beautiful views and all the amenities we could want. So happy to have picked this place for our trip to Galway to celebrate our Dad's 90th birthday at the place he was born. Sean and his son were amazing and also helped find another place for my Dad to stay for a few days after my brother and I left this beautiful place. Hope to be back again some day.

Beautiful viw
This place has a beautiful view of the bay. It is within walking distance of Salthill shops and restaurants and Galway shops and restaurants. We stayed here 6 years ago and liked it so much, we came back with friends. However we were disappointed that the place was not as clean as the last time we were here. We also had some towels that had an oder, a broken chair, and dirty dishes. We did have an issue with one of the toilets that was resolved quickly.
