The Waterfront Rest B&B is a beach-front property located on the peaceful Wild Atlantic Way in the heart of Connemara. Rooms overlook the beautiful water and free WiFi is available in public areas. The property is recommended by Le Guide du Routard. The views were stunning and the host was delightful. Can't comment on breakfast as we left too early. The room was so pretty as were the shared spaces. So much attention to detail. Excellent stay.
