Seems like a good idea, trying to be a destination hotel resort but doesn’t quite have the quality to do it right. I think bc there are plenty of options in the area and they only put limited funds into being resort-like. Food in restaurants pretty good Wine tasting was nice if amateur. Beach is great. Breakfast is amazing. Just a bit too far to walk to downtown Galway. No AC but was comfortable anyway.

Nice location - that’s it. The breakfast was absolutely terrible. The server was mixing utensils so absolutely nothing was vegetarian. So gross. Also they clear your plates before you finish but won’t bring you a glass of water. Very odd setup and quite expensive at $280/night.
