Our stay at Island View House was absolutely lovely. The location was fantastic, offering beautiful views of the bay and Bere Island. Denis, the host, was very gracious and always available to help whenever needed. The breakfast every morning was delicious and sumptuous, featuring a variety of options such as cold cuts, fruit salad, freshly baked bread, and even eggs and sausage on weekends. I also appreciated the small library of books about the West Cork region available for guests to peruse. The room itself was clean and comfortable, providing everything we needed for a pleasant stay. I highly recommend Island View House for a wonderful experience in Castletownbere.

The breakfast was very good and had many options to choose from. the location was convenient and within walking distance to several restaurants and pubs. the room was clean and had plenty of space for our belongings.

It was challenging to find the hotel at night. There was a lack of signage on the main street, which made it difficult to find.
