My husband and I stayed five nights in Dalkey and had a wonderful experience. The villa was not too far of a walk from Dalkey village and we tried most all the fabulous restaurants there that didn’t require reservations. Jaipur and Benito’s were favorites, as well as The Grapevine. One of our favorite memories is going to the King’s Inn pub one night to have some Guinness and hear local musicians play traditional Irish music in a jam session. We also enjoyed the convenience of the DART train to go into Dublin and to see all the little towns along the coastal route. Spent time exploring Dun Laorghie and Greystones, which has the amazing Happy Pear (if you like plant-based, organic meals). We also spent one morning in Killiney Hill Park with great overlooks of the sea. Ronan and Edel were fabulous hosts and made sure we knew the best places to visit and explore. Having a washer and dryer in the villa was a great amenity! We were off to Northern Ireland the next week and it was wonderful to do some laundry for the next leg. The only thing to be aware of is that the bed is a little on the cozy side, if your traveling partner is a bigger guy/gal. But my husband had no complaints about it. Ha ha! I’m just used to our king-sized bed. But overall, everything was wonderful.
