Wonderful Stay
Beautiful accommodation in this wonderful town. The apartment is immaculately presented. Perfect for our needs, we either used it as a place to chill or for launching our jaunts to The Burren or Galway. Very private, yet in the heart of the village. Hosts were very friendly and straight forward. We can't recommend Kinvara Suites highly enough. Thank you for making our wonderful holiday so pleasant.

Beautiful rental to enjoy kinvara and great base for Galway and the burren
Stayed for 3 nights in the middle of a busy trip and it was a lovely spot to slow down. Beautiful space and walking distance to multiple great pubs, restaurants, and coffee shops. Good home base for day trips to the Aran islands, Galway, and the Burren. Easy check in and out process. Would absolutely stay again.
