Fourth time staying here. Always a good stay. Clean and well-appointed suites with a nice ocean view. Kitchen is sufficiently setup/stocked if you want to cook your own meals. Lots to do on the grounds (good facilities) and a short walk to the beach. Beach is really lovely. Really nice gift shop on site too.

I had such a relaxing stay at Tigh-Na-Mara! I was impressed that despite the size of the property, it remained incredibly quiet and peaceful throughout my visit. The scenery is absolutely stunning—being right there on the ocean is a total highlight. The Grotto Spa was an experience unlike any other; I’m already planning my next trip back just for that.
