About Parknasilla Resort & Spa
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.
