Must-Stay Hotel in Ireland

Parknasilla Resort & Spa If you're visiting Southern Ireland, I highly recommend this hotel! Every time we go, we make sure to stay for at least two nights. Most guests here are repeat visitors—we even met a grandfather who’s been coming for over 20 years! The rooms themselves aren’t ultra-luxurious, but they’re clean and cozy. What really makes this hotel special is its vibes—the facilities and atmosphere make it the perfect place to unwind, escape the chaos of daily life, and just enjoy time with yourself or loved ones. Here are some highlights I loved: 🧖🏻‍♀️ Complete Spa – This spa is perfect. Though not huge or overly fancy, it offers three types of saunas: herbal steam, salt steam, and dry herbal sauna. After the sessions, you can relax on heated stone loungers before heading to the heated infinity pool overlooking the sea. 🥘 Incredible Food! – Southern Ireland’s cuisine blew me away. Most places focus on local, seasonal ingredients, ensuring freshness. Irish beef, lamb, and dairy are famous for a reason—don’t miss the rib-eye steak (medium rare) at dinner, served with peppercorn sauce and mashed potatoes… yummmm. 🎾🏌️‍♀️ Activities – The hotel has its own 18-hole golf course (challenging, with ocean views!) and two outdoor hard-court tennis courts (free to use). Golf costs around €40 per person (seasonal pricing), or you can play 9 holes for €20. 🚣🏻⛰️ Scenic Hiking – Located on a peninsula, the hotel offers plenty of easy hiking trails, perfect for a leisurely walk in nature. 🐶 Pet-Friendly! – They even have dog kennels, so families with pets can vacation worry-free! #HealingVibes #WeekendGetaway
