Top Clifton 1st Beach Hotel Reviews

Peninsula All-Suite Hotel by Dream Resorts

10/10 Excellent

"The view of the ocean was great the staff very helpful and friendly. Awesome breakfast with eggs made fresh."

Kayleeway Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"This place was amazing, great location, walkable to just about anywhere, check in and check out was super easy and convenient. The staff and host were extremely helpful and had great communication. The apartment itself was very clean and well maintained. Will definitely stay here again"

President Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had an amazing stay, perfect for families. Breakfast 5 stars!"

The Bantry Bay Aparthotel by Totalstay

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second stay at Bantry Aparthotel. It was actually an extension to my first booking which I did as a separate booking which I was pleased to see did not cause any problems and I was able to retain my same room. All the staff there were helpful and friendly. My room was one of the Penthouse suites so I have a nice little kitchen and a big full size bathroom. There are views with balcony from both the living room and the bedroom and there is a nice roof patio area to the rear. Ocean views are magnificent. The suite was quiet, comfortable, well equipped. Some areas show a little age / wear but nothing I'd find an issue. Its a good, solid, honest aparthotel in a fantastic location. Parking is fine for smaller cars but may be rather tight if you turn up in a Range Rover or something. You can safely walk around the area - the beach, local shops, bars, restaurants and other amenities are all near. Ideal stay to explore the area from."

Compass House Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for part of our Honeymoon and the hotel was amazing, from the room to the breakfast and all the staff went above and beyond!
