We had a really nice stay. Breakfasts and dinners were great. We loved walking on the beach and the beautiful views from our room and the restaurant. Our room was very clean and quiet and parking was easy, what more could we ask for?
The view from our room was absolutely beautiful looking straight onto the beech. Enjoyed relaxing on the sun veranda on the second floor.
Meals were first class and staff were so friendly.
Really enjoyed our few days there.
Unbelievable views of the Atlantic Ocean and convenient access to the beach from this hotel and the restaurant was delicious. I can’t recommend it highly enough!
I booked a double room and for some reason was booked as a single traveller
Hotel didn’t change our room and bed was quite small and not the most comfortable
After a bit of debate with hotel reception we were not charged any extra but were disappointed with uncomfortable bed
Had to show proof of purchase of what I had actually paid for room and was slightly embarrassed
We love rossnowlagh and have stayed in this hotel on quite a few occasions .food and overall trip was enjoyable but booking experience leaves a lot to be desired
Spacious room with great view old style elegance if a bit dated. Seating area wonderful

We stayed in the Sandhouse many years ago and throughly enjoyed our stay in a luxury 4 star experience. This time it was as if the place had stayed still in time in every sense it is tired it is grubby and has lost its panache. On a positive the breakfast was first class and all the staff were lovely. So whilst I would not say it was a disaster the 4 star pricing was not reflective of the hotel standard.
This is a BEAUTIFUL older property in a spectacular location! The room was beautiful, filled with antique furniture and a canopy bed! The staff were all friendly and warm, like they've known you forever. We will definitely be back....HIGHLY RECOMMEND
