Beachfront vacation rentals in Achill Island

Dave's cottage was cozy and very peaceful, with a wonderful view of the sea and a nicely isolated setting. We enjoyed the fireplace every night. Dave provided clear instructions to access the cottage and was very helpful throughout our stay. We also appreciated the sheep grazing around the cottage. We definitely recommend this place!

Absolutely stunning location!!!!! We spent an entire morning climbing on the peninsula, looking in the tide pools, watching the otters play, and seabirds fly. The sheep near by could be seen and heard and I couldn't imagine a more beautiful spot. It was a short drive to Kylemore Abbey and the national park. The shear sense of serenity and freshness was invigorating. The beds were comfortable and the living room was well stocked with reading material for a peaceful evening. My group has already discussed coming back for a longer stay just to enjoy the coastline more.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage very comfortable, clean, warm and well presented and communication was excellent.

Following a stunning week’s weather to top It all, this lovely home was a treat, spotless and well equipped, comfortable and spacious. Great location, perfect for families to enjoy with beautiful local beach nearby. Local shop/ pub within walking distance with others in nearby Gweesalia or Bellmullet. Golfing, fishing, boat trips in the locality, easy reach to Ballina. Great communication from the owners, easy check in, we would definitely return on another occasion.

If you want a place out of the way but with access to everything with ease, this is the place to visit. Barbara is the best host you could wish for.

Charming cozy cottage in a beautiful location. Very welcoming and comfortable and Lucia was very helpful

An idyllic camping spot - nice hiking and swimming in this area - located beside a lovely pub with great hospitality - overall a lovely experience

Such an amazing location and a beautiful, cosy, pristine and comfortable house with stunning views. We (3 adults and 1 dog) Really enjoyed our refreshing walks on the beach with memorable sunrise & sunset views followed by cosy nights in by the roaring fires! Mary was great to deal with and super friendly. House had everything you could need and more. Cannot wait to return!

Margaret’s place was lovely, very private we did drive 20 to 30 minutes for dinner but the drive is beautiful and worth it. We did get some groceries to have lunch at the cottage and had intention-for breakfast at the cottage as well but most sights we wanted to see were at least an hour or 2 aways, we tried several local cafes and they did not disappoint. Highly recommend the Greenfort cottage.

We had such a lovely stay at Mary’s home. It’s right in the middle of town so you were never more than a 5 min walk to anything you needed. It was a comfortable space, with enough beds for all our needs and a cozy living room for us to hang out. Would absolutely come back.

The place was absolutely beautiful, although it is a shared property, it felt extremely private and we never even ran into the other residents. Elaine/Kenneth are extremely thoughtful; they had the house so clean and tidy and even put a Happy Birthday cake in the fridge for us before our arrival as we had specified it was a Birthday trip away. Achill is an absolutely beautiful place and is only 15 minutes away from the property by car (the furthest part of the island being approx. 50 minutes away). Thank you so much for our stay and the many memories from such a beautiful place in the world. We hope to be back in coming years.

5 stars does not do this accomodation or our hostess Maria justice. Spotlessly clean, amazing comfort and facilities, wonderful hostess, fab location. I cannot say enough positives about this gem on beautiful Achill. Highly recommended and I will be back. Well done Maria

3rd year in a row we've stayed. It really is an unbeatable place with great views, so close to the beach and everything is in walking distance. If you do want to adventure then there are many attractions within 50km. The house is immaculate with amazing carpets to walk on that makes it so cosy to stay in.

Lovely hosts and a real feeling of getting away from it all. Loved the fire too.

Fabulous location right beside the sea. Lovely relaxed house, has everything a family needs. Will be going back again.

Lovely apartment, great host, excellent location. Everything was perfect.

House is beautiful and very comfortable! All the amenities we need and super clean. The view and surrounding scenery are amazing. We walked 3 1/2 miles to town on Sky road each morning and saw donkeys, Connemara ponies, jack rabbits and pheasants. Wonderful restaurants in town. Great hike up Diamond Hill in nearby National Park and swam in ocean at beautiful Dog’s beach. Amazing place for a relaxing and fun vacation!

Cosy paradise with breathtaking views I could write an essay on how much I loved my stay here. While the house is absolutely stunning, beautifully decorated and really spacious, the star of the show is the view - WOW. Sitting on the big comfy chair with a good book and a glass of Prosecco is what dreams are made of. So breathtaking. The house is directly across the road from the beautiful 5km beach and a few mins walk from kids activities and shops and restaurants. The bedroom on the top floor is likely the one you will all be fighting for. En-suite, stunning view and even has its own little dressing room. I couldn’t recommend this place more. We loved it so much we extended our trip by 2 nights. As lovely as the pictures are - they absolutely do not capture how fabulous this house is and how spectacular the views are.

Collanmore Island Lodge is unreal, couldn't recommend it more! We had the best stag weekend ever here and Ciaran is a absolute gent. Getting to the island is easy and exciting, beds are comfy and facilities are top notch. Ideal for big family gatherings or any type of West of Ireland getaway. I will be back again for sure, thank you Ciaran and your great team.

Great location, warm house with loads of space. playroom was ideal for toddlers

Roisin's B&B is spotless, cosy and Roisin and her husband are perfect hosts. Breakfast was wonderful and they offered to listen out for the children if we wanted to take ourselves off to the pub. They have a beautiful, friendly dog called Cindy - she was not allowed into the guest bedrooms, sitting room, or breakfast room but my kids couldn't get enough of her. Thoroughly recommended.

We loved this house, a superb family destination, our 4 kids loved the up stairs play area. The down stairs was wonderfully set up for family meal times. The location is excellent, the kids got a few days of surf school and we saw a good bit of Sligo and got some great tips on what to do from the hosts.

What a fantastic spot. We were 4 golfers and we each had a lovely bedroom with comfortable beds. We could see the golf course from the apartment. All Pubs and restaurants could be waked to and the beach was across the road. Fantastic place and we will be back.
