We stayed in Marilou's for one night prior to a trip to the Skelligs. The apartment is self contained and comfortably accomodated our four adult guests (would work perfectly also for a family of 4/5 - two bedrooms - one with a double;one with a double and single - both ensuite). I hadn't realised in advance that the apartment has a comfortably sized kitchen and sitting room. We didnt use them much as ours was a flying visit but they would be very useful for a longer stay. The host left milk, cereal and eggs for us which was a really nice touch. All in all we really enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend. Perfect base for a family who want to take a few days exploring the west of Kerry or any group of friends visiting Skellig.
