Waterfront apartment rentals

Spacious apartment overlooking a fantastic park.
We were visiting for the Rugby and as such this location was perfect. 10 to 15 minutes walk from both Dublin city centre and the Aviva Stadium. From the outset Frieda the host was really helpful and friendly, offering lots of advice and proactively checking everything was OK. The square where the apartment is located is very pleasant and we felt very safe. All in all given the location and the fact that a major sporting event was taking place the value for money was very good.

New! Stunning City Apt - Walk Everywhere !
I can absolutely recommend this air BNB for anyone staying in Dublin. The apartment was clean and tidy. The neighbourhood is safe and the city centre is only a 20 minute public transport ride away. There is a good Pub directly below the apartment building but it’s still quiet in the evening.

Riverside Duplex, Walk to Temple Bar & Guinness's
It's a slightly old yet beautiful duplex apartment, perfect for four people. Apartment overlooks the River Liffey and has a small balcony, just the right spot to enjoy a coffee outdoors. A small kitchen is equipped with all essentials neatly arranged. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a common bathroom, with plenty of towels, pillows, and quilts for comfort. While the apartment sits along the banks of the River Liffey, it's about a kilometer from the city center, making nighttime walks feel a bit isolated. It is conveniently close to the Guinness Storehouse. One challenge I faced was accessing the apartment complex without a local mobile number, as I was traveling from another country with only a data package. If you're carrying large or heavy luggage, be aware that there is no elevator to the third floor. Overall, I highly recommend this apartment for families or small groups traveling light and looking for a comfortable stay in Dublin. James is a great host and always reachable.

Secluded and spacious apartment
Right near the Guinness storehouse and situated by the river. Easy 5 min walk to Smithfield area and Jameson Distillary. Clean apartment with everything we needed. Great, friendly hosts.

Superb Bellevue 1-bedroom apartment
Had an amazing stay in this apartment! It was immaculately clean and very modern! Andrius was very welcoming at check in and very helpful, taking some time to show me each room and how to use facilities like the heating system etc. Would highly recommend!

Seaside Retreat
We had a fantastic stay at Max’s place! Max is a great guy - super welcoming, friendly, and always helpful whenever we had questions or needed tips. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The apartment itself was clean, cozy, and perfectly located to explore Dublin. It’s also a great base for day trips to the beautiful surrounding areas, like the stunning cliffs of Howth. We’d definitely come back and can highly recommend staying here!

Seafront apartment, Clontarf, Dublin 3
John’s apartment was perfect for our three adults. We loved the location - great food and coffee and pubs within quick walking distance. The view of the water and the promenade for walking and biking is just great and you can even swim across the street, if cold water is your thing. Highly recommended.

VICTORIAN HOUSE-Seafront-LARGE Double Room
Daire was such a friendly and responsive host. I appreciated how flexible he was with my check-in time and all helpful instructions / local recommendations. I loved my sunlit bedroom overlooking the promenade. The room was clean, spacious and graciously equipped with hotel amenities (chocolates ;), coffee, slippers, towels, kettle, etc).

Beautiful detached 4 bed home. Ranelagh, Dublin 6
Áine and Joe were wonderful hosts. They made our family vacation extra special with thoughtful extras. Their home was beautiful and in a great location and within walking distance of restaurants, coffee shops, and transportation. We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience and would highly recommend to others.

Double room very spacious private shower wi-fi.
I can’t say enough about Margaret and our stay! We felt right at home. Margaret offered to let us check in early to accommodate our arrival time. She was so friendly, gave us recommendations and made us beautiful breakfast each morning. If we come back to Dublin this is our first choice of where to stay!

Tranquil Retreat in Historic Chapelizod
Cozy place by the river, the view is amazing, the house is clean and nice. Colm is very supportive and friendly

Sea view & beach nearby, 5km to Dublin city centre
We had a fantastic stay at Nuala and Adrien’s place! Their home was welcoming, warm, comfortable, and had everything we needed—including cozy beds for a great night’s sleep. The location was perfect, just a short distance from the city center (10-15 minutes max), with beautiful water views that made it even more special. The walking path along the water is wonderful for an early morning or later evening stroll to see the tide roll in and out. Malahide and Howth are just a short taxi or bus ride away! Again, just an overall great location. Nuala and Adrien were incredibly welcoming hosts, going above and beyond by providing Leap bus passes for our use and leaving snacks along with recommendations for all the best local spots to visit. Their hospitality made our trip even more enjoyable. If you’re visiting the area, this is an absolute must-stay! Highly recommend. Thank you again to our wonderful hosts!

Country Cottage in the city
The house is really nice and everything is according to the pictures. The tram station The Point is 10-15 minutes foot walk away, so you can leave your car in the street where you can park it for free. If someone sleeps downstairs a pump is really loud when water/the toilet is used.

Double Room Booterstown
I had a great stay here. Location and price were perfect for what I needed it for and Daniel was a friendly host. All good, would recommend.

Beautiful Townhouse in Dublin 4
Sharon's home is the perfect place to stay when you visit Dublin. It is walking distance to a lot of things: 5 minutes from great restaurants, stores, and buses, 10 minutes from the DART, and 15 minutes from the city center. There was no basic food like oil, salt, pepper, etc, when we arrived, but Tesco is around the corner. So convenient! The house is large with a huge main bedroom, and main bedroom, and a large second bedroom. The 3rd bedroom is much smaller but fits a rolling bed. The bathroom is gorgeous and the dining room so charming! You will have a lot of space to relax in the living room and enjoy the fireplace. Each room is beautifully decorated and you feel at home. We had a small issue when we arrived, but Sharon and her assistant were very responsive and friendly. Everything was fixed very fast. We loved the house and had a wonderful stay and will certainly come back. We highly recommend her place!

Modern Apartment + River Views
This was a great place to stay- a bit off the beaten track of the city Centre but very walkable (20 mins) to the tourist areas or an inexpensive cab ride. Great restaurants right across the street..local pubs or finer dining available, and a convenient store as well. The suite was exactly as described by David. He was quite helpful by sending detailed instructions on how to get into the apartment. And checked in to be sure we made it. The place felt very safe and was full of kitchen necessities such as butter, cream, spices, coffee, etc. Although the bathroom was small, it was all that was needed and included blow dryer,shampoo, conditioner, body wash. Overall the place is typical of a European flat… small but quite cute & functional! The only negative was that the couch/sofa was uncomfortable… but we spent minimal time on it, as we were out taking in the sites of the area. Would definitely recommend this as it was a nice place to call “home” at the end of a busy day. Thanks D & E

2 Bed, Stylish City Apartment, in D1 Dublin
Place was clean and quiet- even with construction outside we didn’t have any noise issues. Easy access to the bus and grocery and drug stores. Clo met us at the apartment which is a first for our Airbnb experiences. She was extremely responsive and helpful. Let us into the apartment early so we didn’t have to haul around our luggage which was awesome.

Unique apartment | Temple Bar | On The River
We’ve previously stayed in some lovely hotels in Dublin but this experience was far better. Views over the river Liffey, kitchen facilities, balcony etc. Exactly as described and right in the centre (but quiet), perfect!

Private stunning 1 bed apartment with sea views.
Great location for walking the sea front, onto Clontarf village for restaurants and on the bus route for going in town. Well stocked with all the supplies we needed but it was very warm and sheets vs duvet would have been a welcome addition. We were just lucky with a warm spell.

Lovely Two Bedroom Apartment on The Riverfront
This flat is comfortable and a great location on the waterfront. The noise from the street can definitely be a bit loud. Flat was clean and well appointed.

Lovely Dublin Apartment convenient location
I can’t say enough about how lovely our stay was in this flat. My husband is from Dublin so we visit frequently. We have stayed in many flats around the city and this was by far our most favorite ever! We stayed for 9 days and we felt right at home instantly. It had everything we needed and then some. Markets, restaurants, transport and even late night eats are just outside the complex. Considering the location was so walkable to so many things it was EXTREMELY quiet. We felt super safe and slept like babies! We enjoyed sitting on the patio unwinding from long days out on the town. Dana was always super responsive and kind leading up to and during our stay. We loved all the closet space to unpack and settle in. The bathroom is new and was so lovely. We used the kitchen a wee as well and found it had everything we needed! We will definitely check to see if her flat is available next time we are in Dublin.

Fantastic stay and very friendly owners. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Dublin!
