Just wish we knew how to use the heaters and showers better. Both were freezing at this time of year and host had phone issues and never responded. Cutest home and little town. Made it easy to get to Galway without staying in the busy city. Also nice drive to Cliffs of Moher. Walked to the local castle. Locals were very friendly. Was a bit hard getting out in the mornings as schools are very near and busy. ##### Michelle M.

Tucked into side street in the beautiful village of Kinvara, Artists Cove offers comfortable and cozy accommodations in a great location. You’re literally steps away from shopping, great food and local colour. Bernie was on hand to check us in and offer advice and details and we even had the chance to meet Tony as well. The beds are comfortable, the WiFi and TV work well and there was always plenty of hot water for showers and laundry. A splendid time was indeed had by all. Highly recommend! ##### Bob N.

The location was wonderful and very convenient. The apartment layout was unusual, but offered us everything the 4 of us needed. The showers were warm and easy to use. The upstairs would be difficult access for those with a walking disability. It worked for us. Bernie was wonderful. She gave us a guided tour of the apartment and information about sites & restaurants around the area. We would stay here again! Thank you. ##### Vicki B.

The kitchen was quirky with 2 locations, dishes, dishwasher and sink in one area, the cooking and fridge in another. The fridge was small but we only needed it for breakfast supplies, beer and leftovers from dinner. It was actually quite functional. The little courtyard in the back was peaceful after a day of site seeing. Super walkable to every thing in town. Tony was very responsive during the reservation, checking in and checking out. I highly recommend. ##### Phyllis M.

We stayed at Tony's home in Kinvara for a few days on our first trip to Ireland. It was perfect! The photos didn't do it justice. From the moment we arrived we felt right at home. The home is spotless and cozy. It is located within walking to everything, the bus, grocery, restaurants and pubs! Bernie and her husband made our stay seamless, they answered any and all questions we had. We were so grateful that we were able to store our luggage at arrival before check in, since we had a long travel day and we were a bit earlier than we planned. I would 100% recommend staying at Tony's , we can't wait to stay here again! Thank you, we had a wonderful time! ##### tinalouise d.

As others have said layout is a bit weird because of additions, but it works. Location is very handy. Place was well stocked with necessities. It’s right on the street so you’ll hear traffic noise and kids going to and coming from school. But it adds to the character of the home. My only complaint is the WiFi is so slow that it’s nearly unusable. ##### James Walter M.

We really enjoyed our stay in this home. The village of Kinvara is picturesque and perfectly situated between Galway and the Cliffs of Moher to allow you to visit both. Beds were comfy and the home was well appointed. We really enjoyed our stay! ##### Joshua B.

The back patio area was perfect for an afternoon beer or ice cream for the kids. ##### Robin W.

Kinvara itself is a lovely, little bay town, and a nice base for us to daytrip to Galway and the Aran Islands. The property is in a very walkable area -- pub, coffee shops, restaurants, grocery stores, playgrounds, a pier, and even a CASTLE are all from 15seconds to 10mins walk. Fabulous. The locals in Kinvara were all very friendly and we enjoyed chatting with them. Being so close to the pub, I was worried it would be hard to sleep, but the whole town shuts down at a reasonable hour and we had no issue with noise. The inside of the property did resemble the pictures however it felt cluttered and disjointed. On the other hand, the pink bedroom was really very pretty, and it was great that unit had enough beds and bedrooms for the kids in our family. Washer and dryer worked properly and we always had hot water. My one recommendation is blackout curtains in the upper bedrooms. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brenda 3 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Such a charming home right in the heart of Kinvara within easy walking distance of pubs, restaurants and the grocery. Beautifully appointed with lovely houseplants and comfortable furniture. Once I figured out how to text the caretaker from my American phone she was very responsive and kind. A gorgeous little spot. ##### Brenda Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Oranmore Lodge Hotel, Conference and Leisure Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oranmore-Hotels-Oranmore-Lodge-Hotel.h1041847.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Liffey Valley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Liffey-Valley.h1166873.Hotel-Information) > > [The Johnstown Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enfield-Hotels-The-Johnstown-Estate.h906965.Hotel-Information) > > [Portmarnock Resort & Jameson Golf Links](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Portmarnock-Resort-Jameson-Golf-Links.h445188.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel, Oranmore Galway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oranmore-Hotels-Maldron-Hotel.h200714.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel & Leisure Club Sligo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sligo-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Leisure-Club-Sligo.h1194108.Hotel-Information) > > [Hillgrove Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monaghan-Hotels-Hillgrove-Hotel.h521923.Hotel-Information) > > [Clifden Station House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clifden-Hotels-Clifden-Station-House.h473064.Hotel-Information) > > [Ross Lake House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oughterard-Hotels-Ross-Lake-House-Hotel.h115373.Hotel-Information) > > [Allingham Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bundoran-Hotels-Allingham-Arms-Hotel.h37893738.Hotel-Information) > > [The Central Hotel Donegal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Donegal-Hotels-The-Central-Hotel-Donegal.h15716211.Hotel-Information) > > [Kee's Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stranorlar-Hotels-Kees-Hotel-Wellness-Centre.h4902351.Hotel-Information) > > [Killashee Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naas-Hotels-Killashee-Hotel.h908930.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Northern Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bundoran-Hotels-Great-Northern-Hotel.h1788827.Hotel-Information) > > [Arnolds Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunfanaghy-Hotels-Arnolds-Hotel.h527334.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Letterkenny](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Letterkenny-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h972005.Hotel-Information) > > [CABU By The Lakes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cavan-Hotels-CABU-By-The-Lakes.h48850549.Hotel-Information) > > [WHITES OF WEXFORD](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wexford-Hotels-Clayton-Whites-Hotel.h1639727.Hotel-Information) > > [The Abbey Hotel Donegal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Donegal-Hotels-The-Abbey-Hotel-Donegal.h1884.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloomfield House Hotel, Leisure Club & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mullingar-Hotels-Bloomfield-House-Hotel.h1057525.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Errigal Hotel Conference & Leisure Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Letterkenny-Hotels-Mount-Errigal-Hotel-Conference-Leisure-Centre.h1561953.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Silver Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cork-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Silver-Springs.h522758.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Dublin-Airport.h2226273.Hotel-Information) > > [Farnham Estate Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cavan-Hotels-Farnham-Estate-Spa-Golf-Resort.h1499097.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel Dublin Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Maldron-Hotel-Dublin-Airport.h1331635.Hotel-Information) > > [Redcastle Hotel, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moville-Hotels-Redcastle-Hotel.h1538640.Hotel-Information) > > [Powerscourt Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enniskerry-Hotels-Powerscourt-Hotel.h1680006.Hotel-Information) > > [Slieve Russell Hotel Golf & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ardue-Hotels-Slieve-Russell-Hotel-Golf-Country-Club.h4952282.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Dublin Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h77932.Hotel-Information) > > [Shearwater Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballinasloe-Hotels-Shearwater-Hotel-Spa.h1717688.Hotel-Information)
