Smuggler’s Inn in

Attended the sauna area on the weekend of February 3rd 2025, we were greeted by the really friendly owner who allowed us to access the area ahead of our appointment time, it was fantastic, lovely changing and relaxing area with such great views, the hot tub, sauna and ice bath were all included in the cost which was really reasonable. Really enjoyed our time here.

Lovely views beside the beach plenty of parking.

We visited during the low season, so the restaurant and reception were closed, which was clearly communicated before booking. The room was fantastic, and Gillian and Henry stayed in touch throughout, providing all the information we needed. The location is incredible—right in front of the beach. The hotel has an excellent structure, with spacious rooms and great amenities. We had a wonderful experience and look forward to returning in the summer to fully enjoy everything this place has to offer.

Food was good but quite expensive. Attentive service. Nice sea view

My husband and I have just had the most exquisite dinner at this stunning restaurant. The dining experience coupled with the position of the restaurant was quite magical. The food was wonderfully fresh, appetising and beautifully presented. Henry Hunt is an incredibly talented chef. We stayed the night and were also treated to a breakfast to remember. Thank you to everyone at The Smugglers who made our stay one to remember. Goodies, you must try this restaurant. We will be back. Massive thank you from both of us. What a find.

Could not fault this gem, staff are amazing, Gillian and Charlie, thank you. The food was brilliant and the views are to die for. Until next time.

Overnighted in Waterville and had the Smugglers Inn recommended by locals. This was a great recommendation as the room was top class, shower was wonderful and kippers for breakfast was a real treat. Staff were welcoming and so helpful. Gillian is a wonderful hostess , the Smugglers is such a lovely place that I’ll be back again asap.
