Very nice location. But they are some problems. About safety Unsecured gate at the beach side. Other than that very apartment. Has to be more clean. But we are happy. We had a great time

There are no security issues at our premises. We live in a quiet and safe rural area. We are very lucky to be allowed direct access to the beach from our gardens and there are steps and a gate on to the beach. We do have a gate and a code into our car park and property and this is simply here to stop the public from using our car park to go to the beach not for any other reason. Thankfully we get excellent genuine reviews for our lovely clean apartments on not just this platform but across many. We don't offer incentives for reviews but unfortunately some guests expect it.

Upon approaching the apartment after our 3 hour drive journey we were nicely greeted by the owner Jason as Mary was not able to welcome due to other activities. Jason was very nice, helpful and told us all the information regarding the apartment. Apartment itself was kept clean and had all the amenities needed. Location was also very nice, peaceful and quiet with a close proximity to the beach. However, with all of these positives our experience was ruined with bad customer service by Mary our host. As we were only staying 1 night we were clearly told by Jason the night before that check-out time did not have to be 11am incase we wanted to stroll by the beach. As we strolled by the beach early the next day, we came back to the apartment to gather our stuff and planned to leave just before 1pm, I had never been spoken to in such a rude manner and felt like I was spoken to like a child. Mary was very mad as we had not been out by the check-out time by 11am even though we were told by Jason not to worry about check-out time. This was because the cleaners of the apartment had been knocking on our apartment but we were away to the beach on our walk which Mary was very upset about. I felt this was unfair as a visitor staying with my partner as communication on both sides was not clear! Although it was a beautiful location and apartment I would not stay again as I don’t feel appreciated being spoken down like a child as a guest visiting Dublin for the first time.

Response from Mary & Jason on 10 Feb,2020
Jason at no point told you that you could stay later. Check out is very clear that it is 11am & he told you this. We had guests arriving for that apartment and it needed to be cleaned and prepared for their arrival. You could have packed your belongs into the car & left the key for the cleaner who arrived at 11 & who could not access the apartment. I tried calling your contact number and could not get hold of you. In the end the cleaner had to leave & returned after I called her to say you were gone On top of this you reversed your car into another guests van & were not going to stop accept that he seen you & went after you. This guest was very unhappy with the way you behaved at 10pm at night and my husband had to go resolve this problem. So overall we wouldn't want you to be a return guest as your behaviour was rude and inconsiderate.

We arrived at night and it looked a bit leary as we could not find anyone for check in. Turns out our host was just out for a bit and returned our call immediately with information on how to get in. The apartment was spotless and exactly the size we needed. Our host did stop by later in the evening to introduce herself and let us know she is available for fontact 24/7. The apartment had amazing views, super close to downtown and quiet snd comfortable. The licsls in town were so pleasant as well. A nice quiet, rekaxing stay!!! Thank you again for one amazing stay!!!

Thank you for your lovely review. We do request all guests to contact us prior to arrival to let us know their time arrival so that we can be available to check them in or to let them know our self check in procedure (we have key box) if we are not available. We don't have a reception desk as it is just myself & my husband who work at our business.

The property is literally steps from the ocean.This was the last 2 nights of a 24 day driving trip throughout Ireland and Northern Ireland. Having travelled through out Europe, Latin America and South America, this is the only place where they supply face cloths which are normal in the USA. The apartment and kitchen had all of the amenities that we wanted. Great quiet location to decompress. Owners are very friendly. Easy location to the Dublin airport (30 min.).

We have a quiet little apartment just feet away from the ocean. There was a feeling of tranquility, as we took some more walks on the beach, listen to the waves at night. It was also about a 10 minute stroll on the beach to our favorite pub, “the Harbour Bar”. We would return to this location in a heartbeat.

Lovely Apartment beside the Irish Sea
We had an amazing three night stay at these Irish Seaside Holiday apartments. Mary is a perfect property manager, nothing was too much trouble for her. She helped us out with a travel situation that was tricky for us, and even loaned us the use of her personal phone to try to sort the problem. The apartments are in an ideal setting on the Irish Sea beach side. Beach access right from the property. The apartment was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Very functional for our needs. Wish we could have stayed longer and hopefully we will be back!

A great reason to rush to ‘Rush’
A great alternative for couples like us who regularly stay in hotels for business. Directions from the host upon booking were easy to follow. The apartment we stayed in was the purple studio and still larger than an average Dublin hotel room. Picturesque location set right on the beach with ample parking. The apartment was finished to a high standard, modern with a cosy feel. Studio contained a king sized bed, en-suite shower room, sofa, two seater table and chairs, kitchenette including Nespresso machine. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Das Appartment liegt etwas außerhalb von Rush und ist schwer zu finden. Ein Navigationssystem oder die Hinweise der Eigentümerin Mary sind daher sehr hilfreich. Das Gebäude macht von außen eher einen schäbigen Eindruck. Umso erfreuter waren wir, als wir das Appartment betraten. Renoviert, sauber und gut ausgestattet, war es für unseren Dublinbesuch eine gute Wahl. In 10 Minuten erreicht man mit dem Auto, ggf. auch mit einem Bus, den Bahnhof Rush-Lusk. Von dort verkehren regelmäßig Züge zum Connolly Bahnhof im Zentrum (30 Minuten Fahrzeit). Rush selbst ist nicht spektakulär, aber das Appartment liegt direkt an einem schönen Strand, der zu Spaziergängen einlädt. Minus: kostenloses Internet (w-lan) ist verfügbar, aber sehr langsam. Plus: die Kommunikation mit Mary war hervorragend. Gerne wieder!
