Logistics
Planning your stay
Airports
We recommend flying into:
Kerry Airport - 1hr 20 mins to Sneem
Cork Airport - 1hr 50 mins to Sneem
Shannon Airport - 3hrs to Sneem
Car Rentals
Whatever deal you can find at the airports! Make sure you take care on those Kerry roads!
If you're flying into Kerry - make sure you drive via Killarney - so you don't go over the crazy / potentially closed roads.
Taxi's
You will need to pre-book but there are options for taxi's from the airport. Worth researching but we've found an option here.
Day Two
For our English Geezers and Gazelles - Irish weddings also have a day two. This will take place in the village of Sneem, a 10 minute walk from Sneem Hotel.

What to do
In the ring of kerry
- Waterville
- Ballinskelligs
Home of the O'Sheas
Waterville is the only beachfront village of the lovely ring of Kerry. This is also home to the O'Sheas. We recommend heading to the beach front and pulling the Chaplin pose with the statue. The Butler's Arms for a pint (try to spot Eavan's Grandad in the photos with Charlie Chaplin). The Lobster for food and live music... the Villa, if you drink too much and need more music.
Fancy a dip?
The west coastline of Ireland is very well-known for its wild Atlantic waves and is a favourite for watersport enthusiasts. Aside from the stunning Ballinskelligs Beach, perhaps the area’s crowning attraction is the truly spectacular Ballinskelligs Castle.
