Lovely stay in County Cork!

We had a lovely time in Passage West. It was a great spot from which to catch some of the beautiful areas in County Cork. We hit the Cork town center, Cobh, and Kinsale. María and Jim were gracious and helpful hosts, and the apartment had everything we could need. Many thanks from NC!

Excellent apartment/location and hosts

This is an excellent apartment within close proximity to Cork, Cobh, and Kinsale. We were in town visiting our son who is studying abroad at University College Cork. Maria and Jim are excellent hosts. Upon arriving they met us at the apartment and welcomed us and showed us around the property. The apartment was very clean, quiet, and had everything we needed for our stay. It was a very comfortable apartment and we instantly felt at home. Check out process was equally easy. Thank you so much for your hospitality! Would definitely choose to stay here again! Jason/Cathy and family

We had a lovely 2 nights here with kind and responsive hosts who walked us through everything when we arrived. It’s a very car-centric location, but that is ok as we had our own car to explore the area. Overall we enjoyed our stay here!

Fantastic!

The property was perfect for us, as a large family we often struggle to find suitable accommodation but this felt really spacious. Maria, the host, was exceptional in offering advice and help beforehand, and when we arrived we couldn’t believe that there was tea, coffee, milk, bread, butter, marmalade, cereal and juice all provided for breakfast. The apartment was very clean, lovely and modern and very well thought out - lots of thoughtful touches like toiletries, extra bedding, extension leads, everything we needed was there. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this accommodation, our only regret is we couldn’t stay longer! Thank you!

Home away from home!

Maria and Jim are excellent hosts! We stayed at the apartment for a little over a week. The penthouse apartment is quite large, very clean and has everything that you need. It's located in an area above Passage West (country feel), yet centrally located near shops, the airport and most attractions in Cork. We received 5-star treatment from Maria and Jim who even picked us up at the airport after our flight arrived very late and all rental car companies were closed! We highly recommend staying at their apartment!

Wonderful Experience

From the very beginning of booking the penthouse, Maria was an absolute pleasure to deal with. When we arrived at the penthouse she met us with her husband and gave us a complete walk through of everything. She also made several recommendations of places to visit while we were in the area. The penthouse itself was fantastic, it had everything we needed and were looking for. The location and amenities were perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Cork, Cobh and the surrounding area.

Great place not too far from Cork city center

My partner and I stayed here for 4 days and three nights with our 2 teenage children. Each teen had their own space, there was a lovely living area to gather, and we were able to make nice dinners in the kitchen with provided pots and pans. To simplify, we bought spice mixes at the English Market. We used this lovely accommodation as a home base and drove around to nearish-by sites. We would highly recommend this place and we loved the owners - they were beyond kind and helpful.

This property was beautiful and in a great location to visit Downtown Cork, Kinsale, Cobh as well as many other sites and attractions. The hosts we SO amazing and it was truly a pleasure to meet them when we arrived and were shown the apartment and how things worked inside.

Clean With Nice Views

The property is excellent, lots of space, beautiful view, clean with everything you need for a stay. The property owners meet us at the car ferry so we could follow them to the condo. This was due to bad address listing on Verbo, but the owners were wonderful and we had a great time. The only slight downside to this property is nothing was really walking distance, but not a real issue as there was plenty to do within a short drive. Would stay at this property again!

Deluxe days in Passage West Cork

Very comfy lodging for us two couples, each having our space and area to get together. Great hosts met us to show us the ropes and ins-and-outs of the place which was very nice, pretty modern. Great shower in the master en suite. Lots of add-ons like Nespresso pods, teas, and other treats helped to make for an enjoyable stay. We did have occasion to request a small thing from our hosts and they exceeded our expectations with their prompt response.
