Roundstone
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (5 reviews)
"Of the six places we stayed during a three-week visit to Ireland, this was easily the favorite. Clean, spacious, well maintained, and with extras like a large shower and an actual king-size bed that make "luxury" a perfectly appropriate word to describe it. Noise from upstairs was infrequent during the day and absent at night. The host was available in case of issues, but we didn't have any."

Abbeyglen Castle Hotel

Abbeyglen Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Clifden, Abbeyglen castle and this part of the west coast of Ireland are absolutely stunning. Don’t miss the Prosecco Welcome and the hotel owners talk on the history of the local area and Abbeyglen Castle itself. It was absolutely fascinating, occasionally humorous and brought everything to life. The owner remembered our names from the moment we were introduced. Very rare! I’ve travelled globally for business 2 out of 4 weeks for the past 15 years. I’ve stayed in some fantastic hotels around the world. Our stay at Abbeyglen castle was the most personal and best customer experience I’ve had anywhere."

Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Roundstone cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Roundstone vary, but you can find a great deal from £75 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Roundstone is best to stay in for beaches?
The best area to stay in Roundstone for beaches is along the coast just outside the village centre.

This area offers direct access to some of the Connemara region's most beautiful sandy stretches. You'll find accommodations located amongst the dunes and overlooking the Atlantic, often within a short walk of the shore. The coastal road itself provides stunning vistas and connects you easily to various beaches.

Families often find this area ideal due to the proximity to the sea. Children can enjoy building sandcastles, paddling in the shallow waters, and exploring rock pools right on their doorstep. Many properties in this area have gardens, offering extra space for children to play.

Couples looking for a peaceful escape will also appreciate the coastal locations. Imagine waking up to the sound of waves and enjoying long walks on the beach at sunset.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Roundstone?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Roundstone is during July and August. These summer months offer the warmest weather, with average temperatures ranging from 15°C to 19°C, which is ideal for enjoying the stunning Connemara coastline and its beautiful beaches.

During this period, the days are long, allowing ample time for coastal walks, swimming, or exploring the village's vibrant craft shops. You'll find a lively option, particularly around the harbour, with many local events and traditional music sessions taking place. Families often find these months superb for a beach holiday, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities and making the most of the seaside setting.

For those seeking a slightly different experience, June is an excellent alternative. The weather is still pleasantly mild, typically between 14°C and 17°C, offering comfortable conditions for exploring the area without the peak-season crowds. While still a popular time, you may find better value on hotel stays and it can be easier to secure reservations at the highly sought-after local restaurants.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Roundstone with Expedia?
One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Roundstone beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. But, if you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.



*Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
What beach activities should we do in Roundstone?
The best beach activities to do in Roundstone revolve around enjoying the pristine waters and sandy shores of Gurteen Beach and Dog's Bay.

Gurteen Beach is a very popular spot, known for its fine white sand and clear, shallow water, which makes it ideal for swimming and paddling. The beach is sheltered by a headland, so the water tends to be a bit warmer than other areas, making it comfortable for a dip even on cooler days. You'll find plenty of space here for sunbathing or simply relaxing with a book. It's also a great place for families, as the gentle slope of the seabed means children can play in the water safely.

Dog's Bay, just a short walk from Gurteen, offers a different experience with its unique shell-based sand, composed entirely of crushed seashells. This gives the sand a distinctive texture and a brilliant white appearance. The bay is shaped like a horseshoe, providing very calm and sheltered waters, great for kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding. You can often rent equipment nearby, or if you bring your own, it's an excellent location to launch from.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Roundstone as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Roundstone for you.
