My boyfriend and I were driving from Cork to Killarny when I started browsing AirBnB to see what options were available. We really lucked out coming across Maggie's place. Throughout the entire drive, Maggie stayed in touch with me and made sure all my questions were answered. She even assured that the place is ready for me and to arrive and check in before the normal check in time. My boyfriend and I arrived around noon in Killarny. With limited time in the area, Maggie quickly welcomed us and made sure we had all the information we needed so we can best utilize the time we had there. Loved how mindful she was of our time.
Maggie's place is so cute. There's this elegant chic touch to her place, yet very warm and inviting. When I first stepped into her place, it smelled lovely inside. The room that my boyfriend and I stayed in was located upstairs. It's spacious and clean. The purple and white decor throughout the room was really nice. Note: There's no AC but leaving the windows open will bring in cool air.
The location was excellent! From Maggie's place, we walked around the back of the house, descended downhill via some steps, and voila, we are on Muckross Road. On this road, going left leads to the National Park and going right leads to Town Center. With only half the day there, my boyfriend and I were able to bike around the National Park, visited all the main attractions in the park, and walk around the Town Center. We were a bit ambitious but it all worked out because Maggie's location was really excellent. Snacks helped too. The bike place was located on Muckross Road and super close. (Fyi, the bike place closes at 6PM) If you're still not convinced on location, look up Dromhall Hotel. Maggie's place is right up the hill from there. There's free parking at Maggie's too.
Lastly, Maggie didn't have to do this but knowing that we were going to leave super early the next day to do the Ring of Kerry (Great starting point for that too!), she packed scones for us to bring on the trip. The scones were delicious!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I totally would. Love Maggie and her place!
