Centrally located to town, actually in town, and the staff was just terrific. Nice stop at halfway point on the Ring of Kerry. Central store right at the back of the hotel and ice cream shop also. Breakfast was by order, limited but not a buffet. There is a grass courtyard outside with tables and chairs where you can order food and drinks just about all day long, the view is of the ocean and just stunning. The place gets hopping on the weekends so go early if you want outside table. The food is exceptional and plentiful. Calamari is just right. The staff works hard all day long with the tables inside and out, making sure everyone is getting what they want. Kudos to the Staff. Hit the Fishermans Bar for a nightcap, staff friendly and great fun.

Beautiful location practically on the beach. Amazing views. Rooms Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Wonderful food but most of all the exceptional staff I couldn't praise them enough so kind and helpful. Lovely Lovely people. Great barman, pulls great pints up for the craic and a bit of banter. Absolutely love this place and I will continue to return here as I have been doing for yrs. You really won't be disappointed ❤ Thanks to everyone at the Smugglers Inn.

    We had a very comfortable stay in the Smugglers Inn. The hotel's breakfasts were delicious and the staff were very pleasant. We attended 10am Sunday Mass nearby in a beautiful Church. We drove along the N70 to Kenmare and the scenery was spectacular.

    Waterville is a quiet coastal town with good beachfront walks, nice restaurants and spectacular views. We ate in the Butlers arms hotel pub and had deliciously cooked fish and chips. Took a lovely seafront walk and stopped for a drink in the popular Lobster bar and restaurant where the food looked and smelled delicious, noted for next time. Waterville was ideal for a one night stay to get away from it all or as a quiet stop when touring the ring of Kerry.

    Great property , very peaceful and remote , short drive to shops/beach /river . All facilities are provided , very comfortable. Only real gripe would be lack of choice /channels on TV , could do with having Netflix or something ( especially if you have children to keep entertained!! 😜) over all , very happy with the property and would happily stay there again .

    Waterville is a pretty little village in kerry dark sky reserve and close to kerry cliffs. Friendly people but not a lot to do. Excellent guinness beef stew at Dooley's. Would not recommend Darc apartments. - 3rd bedroom was like a closet and very uncomfortable cot to sleep on. 2 bathrooms- one toilet was out of order and no water pressure in either shower. Could have been cleaner - used bars of soap in bathrooms..Tv not hooked up and other than helping us find the unit , which was poorly marked- owner of unit did not respond to inquiries from us regarding plumbing, tv etc. Location was convenient

    It was beautiful!!! Great location and service and food! Lovely clean room & new en suite. Room has ocean front view and you can fall asleep looking at the stars! There is also a lounge to watch the sunset! You really need a car for Waterville to get to Smuggler’s Inn.

    We enjoyed being close to Waterville village to make it easy to get back from dinner, lovely new bathrooms and all the amenities you could wish for in the rooms themselves, including fresh water and milk! Breakfast was really yum too. Thanks to the very friendly hosts for a great stay!
