Fantastic stay
We had an amazing stay again at Fota Island Resort. The staff from check in to check out were excellent as always. Our gorgeous room was ready when we arrived at the hotel. A special thank you to all the staff who made our stay perfect again 😀

We had a lovely stay in Fota, the staff were amazing and the food was amazing. The hotel itself is nice hotel but the spa is a bit underwhelming. My wife had a treatment and rated the treatment as excellent so that part is impressive it the spa facility itself that needs some work.

One night stay as a family
One night stay, would have loved a longer visit. Every single member of staff that we met was professional, obliging and genuinely pleasant and in good form. That tells a lot about a hotel. We plan to return again.

Aaron, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

The stay was very standard —kids are not allowed into the pool after 5 and the hot tub was freezing cold - there was very little here to make us come back.
