Harbour View B&B

Kenmare

Wonderful base to explore the Beara, Kenmare, and the Ring of Kerry.  We stayed in this elegant accommodation 6 nights.  Beautiful views.  Elegant home. Maureen does a great job making you comfortable, and is a great source for eating in Kenmare.

Worth a look!

Ideal place to do the exploring of the peninsula’s. 
Specially the passes over the mountains are a must. 
Not only the rings og beara and kerry……………………
Maureen is a perfect landlord as well……..
Kenmare is a beautiful town at 10 minutes drive.
Restaurants and bars nearby.

Beautiful place…

We stayed for 3 nights at the Harbour View whilst travelling around South West Ireland. Maureen is the most fantastic host and her B&B is located right on the Sea front. Our room was spotless and very comfortable and had stunning views over the the bay. We would highly recommend the Harbour View if you like somewhere quiet and beautiful and within a mile from a very good pub/restaurant, The Sailors Bar, who looked after us so well. Thank you to Maureen for such a wonderful time.

Wonderful!

My wife and I had a two night stopover while touring this part of Ireland. Maureen is a lovely host, a very helpful and friendly lady, the house and rooms were all Very clean and tidy, and the continental breakfast was nice and light.
There is also  excellent food just down the road at the Sailors Bar (see separate review). 
It is a really amazing view to wake up to, and only a few minutes drive into Kenmare which is a lovely little town. 

Maureen is the type of lady who would bend over backwards in the very unlikely event you did have an issue, you would just need to ask. We will definitely go out of our way to use this b&b, guesthouse again when we return to this spectacular part of Ireland.

I would also suggest to contact Maureen direct if possible, instead of using mainstream booking sites as they don't offer the same personal touch. 

An Emerald Gem

Touring southern Ireland staying at local bed and breakfast establishments. Harbour View, Kenmore did not disappoint. Our room had an amazing view over the water. Very clean, lots of hot water and fab continental breakfast.  Thank you Maureen, we really enjoyed our stay with you. Highly recommend, check out their direct website and book direct to avoid high booking charges.

Holiday in Ireland

Included as our overnight stop while touring the Ring of Kerry the Harbour View was located just a few miles out from the centre of Kenmare itself.  The premises are a modern property that has undergone refurbishment and was very well presented from the outside and exceptionally bright and clean inside. 
Through no fault of the proprietor, who had allocated two downstairs rooms for our stay, we opted for two rooms upstairs where un fortunately the rather steeply pitched roof profiles presented as a little bit of a challenge for anyone near to or above 6' in height.
That said, it is impossible to fault the rooms in any way.  Everything from multiple plug sockets to tea and coffee facilities, from hair drier to quality carpets, from excellent TV service to shower facilities, from effective shower facilities (albeit rather small) to a perfect nights sleep on a quality mattress.  Everything one could require had been thought of and provided for.
A full range of breakfast juice and cereal plus an excellent full Irish breakfast with as much bread and toast as one wanted ensured we were given a perfect start to day two of our tour. 
The view of Kenmare Bay from our rooms is exactly as portrayed on Trip Advisor.
I would definitely recommend this location and contacting them direct.

Ideal Location

A very pleasing B&B experience. Very high standard accommodation. Exceptionally clean everywhere. A wonderful selection of breakfast items, especially the tasty variety of cooked breakfasts. Would highly recommend this B&B. Unlikely you will find anything that will disappoint.

Touring County Cork/County Kerry 

Enjoyed my stay here. It is a lovely bed and breakfast, very clean and food was good. Fabulous view but it's that bit pricey for being so far out of town. Nothing extra about it for the price. Think back rooms should be a bit cheaper than the front ones with the viiew. I would stay again but not at present prices.

Good bed and breakfast but too pricey for what you get.

We have been several times in this area and this is the second time we stayed in Kenmare. The B&B is definitely nice and the host is a lovely person who helps you out and does not mind spending some time with you speaking about anything you wish. We have followed her advice and went to have dinner to the place close by (please follow her advice!).
We had 2 bedrooms ensuite at the ground floor. You get everything you need, probably I would have expected something more for a B&B of their level (no much soap and shampoo for shower plus pressure was weak). Do not get me wrong, all good, just something was missing for getting the maximum rate.
Also, make sure you get everything sorted at the check-in as there is nobody in the night if you need. Not that you will need anything, but it is better to know in advance.
Would I come back here? Yes, I will. Just, I would love price to be cheaper than booking.com when booking direct.

Last minute stay

Lovely quiet and peaceful place! Owners very helpful! Great place to rest. Rooms clean and very well equipped. Close to the charming town and the marina. This is perfect place to mountain walks with spectacular views. Best wishes :*
