Luxurious Penthouse Apartment with panoramic sea views - in the village

This is an exclusive self-catering luxurious property situated in the middle of Roundstone village. If you require a different sea view every time you look out your window, this is the apartment for you.

The Ard View apartment has plenty of free parking outside the door and there is free WIFI available. It has oil fired central heating, a beautiful hand-crafted kitchen, all modern appliances, a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer and a large flat screen television.

The bedroom which possesses a very comfortable queen sized bed has the very best quality linen. This luxurious apartment boasts its very own Jacuzzi bath; the perfect place to relax after the numerous beach and hill walks which surround the beautiful village of Roundstone. Indeed, the world famous Dogs Bay and Gurteen beaches are less than 2 km from the village - both beaches boast miles of golden sand, crystal clean waters and are a swimmer's delight.

Situated a few metres from Roundstone House Hotel (Vaughan's) and O'Dowd's Seafood Bar and Restaurant, this apartment couldn't be more centrally located.

What better way to finish off your evening than taking your glass of wine onto the balcony and watching the boats return to the harbour with their catch of the day. Pure heaven!

(During High Season, rentals are from Saturday to Saturday).

Staying at the Ard View Apartment in Roundstone is a one-of-a-kind experience in a beautiful seaside Irish village. The reviews say it all: this is a beautifully furnished, modern and clean apartment, just as pictured, with stunning views out over the bay that in person are even more impressive. Very thoughtfully stocked with a welcome package of coffee, tea, sugar, paper products, and other necessities, including very nice bath products. Excellent restaurants and convenient food shops right in the village, a block from the front door. Vaughan's was a standout, we went twice and were blown away both times. The Shamrock Pub is a terrific local spot for a beer and a quick meal. Ann and her daughters, who run the very popular Bogbean Cafe downstairs, could not be more welcoming or helpful. In the best possible sense, you feel like part of the family. Ann even drove all the way to meet us at Lough Inagh with our cell phone after we had checked out, just so we wouldn't miss our boat trip on the Killary Fjiord! That was one of the nicest things ever done by a landlady! Thank you Ann! The Ard View is a perfect base from which to explore Connemara, or just relax and soak in the views. Thank you Anne for a wonderful vacation.

What a magical space, as soon as we entered the property all the stress and worries just dissapeared, the views are jaw dropping . A lovely space to just sit at one of the many windows or outside balcony with a nice glass of wine or cup of tea and just relax and watch the world go by. The village of roundstone is so charming with friendly locals and choices of places to eat and drink on your doorstep. A very special place indeed. We were very lucky and enjoyed a good spell of weather and the icing on the cake was a magical show of nothern lights, and no better place to watch the show was from the balcony.

We had a fantastic time at this apartment. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home by Ann and her daughter Orla. The description does not do justice to the apartment or the views from it. Recommending a stay here is a simple task. You won't regret it

Super stay….and what views!!!!
Everything about our stay in Roundstone was great. We loved the apartment and the ever changing views depending on what the weather was doing!! Having the Bogbean Café downstairs was an added bonus for a coffee and croissant for breakfast. Thanks Orla.

Beautiful location and surroundings
The apartment was very well presented and comfortable. Felt very spacious for the two of us. Ann was very helpful regarding our late arrival and quick to respond during the week We had fantastic weather and the scenery is beyond beautiful. Moonrise at Gurteen Bay will not be forgotten soon. During our stay (Aug 22) there were some ongoing building works next to the apartment. This was sometimes a bit intrusive but the noisy bursts didn’t last long and were bearable. If you are out for the day you won’t notice anyway! A minor point regarding the amenities was that the jacuzzi/bath spa was instead of a shower not an ‘extra’ (my misreading of the description). It takes a long time to fill so most mornings we resorted to a quick, if somewhat awkward, wash with the shower attachment which was fine!

A spacious and modern finish appartment with excellent picturesque rooftop views.
We had a good stay with weather mostly kind to us, although mists can close in and views diminish. Didn't find the setees comfortable so not so relaxing as it could have been and I didn't get on very well where there was restricted height. Otherwise the appartment was very good, being light, spacious, lovely views, very central position, good reserved off-road parking near entrance. Help from Orla with luggage was very welcome, but shame the lift is out of action. The Shamrock, next door proved to be a blessing of our stay in Roundstone,, excellent for food, music, friendly service and they always looked after us. Roundstone is stunning and in a beautiful position. Excellent for drives, walks and must be also for cycling too, as we saw so many enjoying it.

We loved our stay.
We were really happy with our stay at this penthouse apartment right in the heart of Roundstone village. From the moment of our arrival when we me Orla, our Host, we felt totally at ease and at home. The apartment is as outlined in the VRBO site. The views are breathtaking. Before arriving, questions such as where to store bikes safely and parking for our car we’re immediately addressed. We spent 7 days here and used it as a base for day trips and bike rides all over Connemara. We cannot wait to return again to this apartment and location. It was so comfortable, attractively laid out and a pleasure to hang out in on the one rainy day! Thank you Orla and Ann for your hospitality, Mary & Austin .
