Rental unit in Sutton
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 95 reviewsSeafront Apartment in Sutton
A wonderful place to stay, good connections to the airport and Dublin City. The flat is well equiped, we stayed 1 week and didn’t miss a thing. Francis provided many amenities such as coffee, tea, butter, milk and more. Check in and out was easy, all together a place I would highly recommend.
Rental unit in Dublin 2
4.75 out of 5 average rating, 218 reviewsSpacious apartment overlooking a fantastic park.
Stayed in Dublin for a rugby game and came across Frieda’s property. We could not have found a better location in Dublin. Very easy to park our car at the property and walk around Dublin. The accommodation was spacious, comfortable and pristine. From day one of booking this property Frieda could not have made things any easier, from meeting us at check in to recommending restaurants and shops. Thank you so much Frieda, we will hopefully stay again sometime in the future

Cozy apartment in a good location. The kitchen invites you to cook, but could use a little more amenities. Paul was always super spontaneous and helpful.

We had an amazing time at Kevin’s place. The house was exactly as described, clean, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect—close to everything, yet in a quiet neighborhood, which made it a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bed was super comfortable. Kevin was a wonderful host, very responsive and accommodating, making the check-in process seamless. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay!

Rental unit in Blackrock
5 out of 5 average rating, 34 reviewsApartment on Dublin Bay 2 Double bedrooms en suite
James was friendly, probably the most friendliest Airbnb host I have ever encountered, he couldn’t do enough for us. His recommendations were excellent and he was so kind and accommodating. Extremely welcoming, he met us at the door and was so considerate about us having a baby with us. The place , for us, was a great place to visit Dublin but be able to relax away from the busy city. Great for morning walks and runs, quiet and comfortable. The local restaurants were excellent. I even swam in the sea! Thank you James !

Rental unit in Dublin
5 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviewsModern Central Riverfront Apartment
This is by far one of the best Airbnb's I've ever stayed at: exceptionally clean, nicely renovated, beds & linens were so comfortable and cozy, location was perfect (walkable to lots of public transit options + several convenience stores, a pharmacy, and pubs of course). The views were amazing too, and the apartment had everything we need for our long-weekend stay! And it was very quiet at night. Check-in was super easy, hosts were wonderful & responsive. Honestly, can't recommend this place enough!

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 29 reviewsSuperb 4 bed in prime location!
We loved everything about staying at Janet’s place. I would have given more stars if I could. It was absolutely perfect. Janet was helpful and very responsive. The house is more beautiful than the pictures. And I couldn’t believe how close the house was to the town and the train. One day, we went into Dublin, which was very easy on the train. The other days we walked into town and enjoyed the restaurants there, particularly the Grapevine and Benito’s. Of course, you can’t miss Finnegan’s. We also took some great walks - Killiney Hill Park and Sorrento Park. We didn’t take the plunge but considered it. Can’t wait for an opportunity to go back!
Home in Greystones
5 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviewsMarina View
John’s house is a great place for a family holiday. Really well equipped, homely, and in a great location, with off- street parking and a sun-trap back garden (paved). John is very pleasant and helpful. Greystones is a lovely seaside town, with many restaurants and cafes and beaches in charming coves - all in easy walking distance from John’s delightful marina-located house.

Just back from a really lovely stay at Paul and Gina's house in Booterstown. The house is beautifully presented with lots of attention to detail. It is very well equipped and all soft furnishings are of a high standard. Paul and Gina are excellent hosts who responded to our emails promptly. They were helpful and attentive throughout the whole process. We loved the house and the location and had a fantastic stay there. We'd very happily return to this house. Thank you Paul and Gina.

Aine was a superb host offering outstanding flexibility when our flight home was cancelled. The home and garden are amazing! Area was quiet yet very convenient. Grocery and restaurants in walking distance. A tram station was a few minutes walk. We definitely will stay here on any future trips to Dublin. Wish we had stayed longer as Ireland has so much to offer a visitor

Home in Blessington
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 119 reviewsLake Side House
Cara place was the most beautiful place I have ever stayed! The view when the gate opened was unbelievable. It was spotless when arriving. The 4 bedrooms and 3 baths were all very large and sleek. After traveling throughout Ireland, the house on the lake was the perfect t place to return to each night for clam and peaceful nights. There were 8 of us in the house, and all of us can’t stop talking about the views and tranquility. If I ever return to Ireland, I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else! Cara was always so responsive to any questions and kept in touch with check in-check out details.

Oh, I loved this house. Such a perfect, peaceful location. I already miss walking the cliff road to get coffee each morning. And sitting by the upstairs windows, gazing out at the ocean and the walkers. The rooms were beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The shower was strong and hot. Caroline was great with communications and in fact, left the best ---most useful (eggs/milk/butter)---welcome basket I've ever received at a vacation house rental.

Clo has a lovely place a bit north the city center with everything that you need. It is a cozy apartment and we enjoyed our stay a lot.

Condo in Rathmines
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 86 reviewsa unique property in Portobello
Excellent one bed apartment in a great neighbourhood. Ideally located a minutes walk to buses that will bring you into the centre of the city, just 10-15 minutes away. You can even get a bus straight to the airport, running every 10 minutes. Really great location and the apartment is spot on as well. Very well appointed, with fully equipped kitchen, smart TV in the sitting area and even a private outdoor space. David's place has all you need for a thoroughly enjoyable break, very well appointed, clean and tidy. David is a charming and considerate host, with excellent communication skills. I will definitely return myself and would not hesitate to recommend David's flat.

Condo in Dublin 3
4.9 out of 5 average rating, 31 reviewsPrivate stunning 1 bed apartment with sea views.
Great location for walking the sea front, onto Clontarf village for restaurants and on the bus route for going in town. Well stocked with all the supplies we needed but it was very warm and sheets vs duvet would have been a welcome addition. We were just lucky with a warm spell.
