Pros:

Dermot the host was fantastic. Location was good just a short walk to the town and beautiful views from the property.
Beds were comfy and good sized rooms.

Cons:

It was a noisy property and we could hear the guests above us walking around and running the shower. It disturbed our sleep. If staying there ask for a room on the first floor.

Pros:

Accomodation was lovely, host was very friendly. Room was spacious and bed were comfy! Location was great, 10 minute walk into the town

Cons:

I did think the room only option was strange, it was €189 per night which was pricey enough for a B&B especially given the 2nd B was not included! Asking guests to pay an additional €15 for a continental breakfast (no cooked on offer) seems beyond the scope of a B&B in Ireland. I can't comment on the quality as we opted to go to town and paid similar price in a cafe for beautiful cooked food and coffee.

Clean, Comfortable and good location.
Pros:

Great Breakfast, Great Towels, Owner was friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Very little sound proofing between rooms. You could hear people talking or the toilet flushing. So if you have a neighbor thas is up late or early that can be an issue. But this is typical of Bed and Breakfast accommodations.

A perfect location for a holiday stay.
Pros:

The location is perfect for getting to town easily and the view is amazing! Our room was on the bottom floor and was easy to get in and out of. Parking was plentiful and easy to manage. The continental breakfast was delicious and a nice variety. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed talking with Jack.

Cons:

I liked everything. Wish I could have stayed longer!

Nice property, friendly host!
Pros:

Very friendly host, nice rooms. Unfortunately, we had to leave too early for breakfast, so I can't evaluate that. A short walk from downtown.

The Lighthouse ist ein rundum tolles Erlebnis.
Pros:

Der persönliche und herzliche Kontakt , mit allen guten Tips für die Umgebung. Das Frühstück ist insgesamt ein Erlebnis. Der Frühstücksraum, mit dem kontinentalen Frühstück, mit frischem Obst, Brot, Joghurt und nicht zu vergessen das tolle Porridge. Es bleiben keine Wünsche offen.

Absolutely Recommend!
Pros:

Everything was great, including the location, breakfast, and the staff. It is a short walk into town, and we were given great recommendations for dinner, drinks, and music. In the morning, Dermot made the BEST breakfast porridge! After breakfast, we took a tour with Dermot around the peninsula. We learned so much more than we could have on our own, and he navigated the roads like a pro. He has a great personality and was really fun to get to know. Our stay at the Lighthouse in Dingle was one of the highlights of our trip.

Cons:

There were no negatives related to the Lighthouse. I only wish we had been able to spend more than 1 night there, but our plans did not allow for it.

Love the Lighthouse
Pros:

We arrived a few minutes before midnight because we were involved in an automobile accident when leaving Belfast.Since we lost an entire day of vacation Dermot was kind enough to "find" an extra night for us so we could make up lost time in Dingle.
I highly recommend the lighthouse...beautiful location, excellent service and flexibility with breakfast times and personal recommendations for local activities. THANK YOU DERMOT!!

Cons:

Liked everything!!

Wonderful stay and amazing hosts!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at The Lighthouse. We were greeted by Jack. He was incredibly friendly and hospitable. He even moved us to a room on the bottom floor. The room was very clean and cozy with a super comfortable bed. I loved that we could do laundry. The B&B is about a 10 min walk into town.
Highly recommend!

Cons:

My only complaint is that we had no hot water one morning for some reason.

Would stay again if we ever find ourselves in Dingle.
Pros:

The host was incredibly friendly, the location was phenomenal, and the room was clean and well sized for our group.

Cons:

The toilet in our room was giving us some issues flushing, apart from that it was perfect.
