01 · In a sentence

Parknasilla Resort & Spa in V93 EK71, open MaySeptember.

Parknasilla Resort & Spa stands apart with its 500-acre private estate on the Ring of Kerry, offering guests an all-inclusive resort experience rather than a standalone venue rental.

The property combines on-site accommodations, championship golf, and a full spa within one waterfront location, eliminating the need for guests to coordinate separate hotels.

This integration allows wedding parties to extend celebrations across multiple days while maintaining full control over their venue and guest experience.

Superb stay here for a couple of nights in October. The grounds are very nice and the location is close to Sneem which Is ok to venture in to check out in an evening for a dinner/drink. The best Negronis I’ve ever tasted in the bar in the hotel but A bit short staffed at times. The room was very comfortable. If I had one complaint it would be the breakfast was average and needs improving to match the rest of the stay.
