Facing the Atlantic Ocean, it features many sandy beaches, rocky inlets and stunning peninsulas. Town: Situated between the towns of Waterville and Kenmare, the village of Sneem is on the route of the Kerry Way. It has a variety of shops, pubs and tea-rooms, and its brightly coloured houses add to the vibrant atmosphere making it a popular spot. It is widely believed that it is not possible to complete a circuit of the Ring of Kerry without passing through this lovely village. Waterville and Kenmare both make for an excellent day out and are close by, as is the beautiful Killarney National Park with its stunning scenery, a must for keen walkers. Macgillicuddy's Reeks, the highest mountain range in Ireland, offers challenging terrain for the more experienced walker. This wonderful area has a lot to offer as a holiday destination. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Internet access ### Food and drink - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher ### Bedrooms - 6 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Shower ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,884 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/22000000/21970000/21966000/21965924/8efffe79.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Alaind Lodges Castlecove - Parking included - Free WiFi - Housekeeping 9.8 Exceptional 46 reviews $117 nightly $133 total Mar 30 - Mar 31 Total with taxes and fees [](https://www.expedia.com/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=21965924&PinnedHotelID=21965924&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103780000/103778500/103778460/27bdfe14.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Skating Rock Milleens - Kitchen - Washer - Parking included - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.com/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-10&endDate=2026-04-11&selected=103778460&PinnedHotelID=103778460&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33590000/33586200/33586111/1792b357.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bedrock Cottage - 2 Bedroom cottage with Sea Views just 10 minutes from Kenmare Kenmare - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.8 Exceptional 70 reviews [](https://www.expedia.com/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-10&endDate=2026-04-11&selected=33586111&PinnedHotelID=33586111&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/60000000/59860000/59859600/59859522/20d6fd4f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bedroom house on a farm , situated on the Beara Way walking trail.
