We really enjoyed our stay at Maya’s apartment! We honestly didn’t know too much about this part of town (Monkstown), but it is charming! Very nice shops and stores, groceries, etc. Purty Kitchen next door was the best food we had our entire trip. And the unit is a few mins walk from two little town centers (one to the East and one to the west, 5 mins walk or less each.) and only about 5 mins from Dart train to get into Dublin in about 30 mins for about 2.50 euro. Also nearby is 703 Bus AirCoach to and from the airport (check schedule and pre-purchase tickets).
The unit itself was very convenient, especially with 2 bathrooms to go with the 2 rooms. It’s own backyard/garden area, and very clean. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in this quiet seaside area, or just looking to stay a little outside the gritty bustle of Dublin city.
Bonus points for walking outside to the jetty and watching the sunset each evening.
