Entspannte Tage in Muckross Park
Pros:

Die sehr schön zugeschnittene Wohnung. Auf besonderen Wunsch erhielten wir eine Erdgeschosswohnung mit kleiner Terrasse und großen Fenstern. Das war prima. Die Küche war mit allem eingerichtet, was man zur Selbstversorgung braucht. Die Herdplatten hatten eine nicht gleich verständliche Grafik an der Wand, aber schließlich hab ich’s verstanden und konnte kleine Speisen zubereiten.
Wir sind von Muckross Park aus im Uhrzeigersinn den Ring of Kerry gefahren.
War toll. !!
The Reserve at Muckross Park können wir sehr empfehlen!

Cons:

Nichts

Delightful stay in the midst of nature
Pros:

The staff was extremely attentive and helpful.
Location across from Killarney National Park was ideal.

Cons:

Everything was perfect!
A small convenience store for small items for the Muckross Reserve apartments would be helpful for those without a car

super stay. We had dinner twice and lunch once in Colgans / other bar and they were excellent
Pros:

ground floor was a bonus with a little garden and all the lovely sunshine. The property was well stocked and stayed cool even with the very warm weather (don't often have the opportunity to say that in Ireland!)

Cons:

We had to request late check-out and spa times 4 times and still wasn't confirmed

Paradise found
Pros:

Early mornings walks in the beautiful national park across the street. A cappuccino in the gorgeous hotel. The fish and chips with live music and a glass of redbreast while listening to live music in the evening. The apartments are very generous and nice. We will definitely be back.

Cons:

The mattress was a bit hard for me. The shower water pressure is not very strong.
