Testimonials
Mary, Mequon, Wisconsin"Everything was delightful. Lots of space, luxurious linens and towels, well decorated. Impeccable. Our favorite stay in Ireland."
Margo"We loved staying at the White Room Kenmare. The apartment was very comfortable, tastefully decorated, with easy access and parking. Definitely a 5 star, self-contained apartment right in the heart of Kenmare. We can highly recommend the beautiful apartment."
Dan"We stayed in Kenmare at Shubbery Mews apt 1 for 3 nights in October. Our stay was flawless, a comfortable and wonderfully appointed apartment in the middle of Kenmare, within walking distance of great restaurants, pubs, and shops. Beautiful drive to Killarney National Park, Beara Peninsula, and a short drive to Dingle.
The White Room team was friendly and available. We will absolutely be back, it was our favorite stay in Ireland. Truly a home away from home!"

Top Things to Do in Kerry
The Ring of Kerry is a legendary scenic route filled with mountain views, golden beaches, historic sites, and postcard-perfect villages like Sneem and Waterville.
The Ring of Beara is a hidden gem—less travelled but equally breathtaking. This quieter loop winds through rugged coastline and wild mountain passes, offering a more peaceful and untouched experience. Be sure to drive the spectacular Healy Pass for panoramic views.
Take a boat from Glengarriff to Garnish Island, an enchanting haven of exotic plants, Italian-style gardens, and even resident seals basking on the rocks.
Visit the Kerry Cliffs near Portmagee for towering views over the Atlantic and the distant Skellig Islands. It's a dramatic and less crowded alternative to the Cliffs of Moher.
Killarney National Park is Ireland’s oldest and one of its most beautiful. Explore its serene lakes, ancient woodlands, and historic gems like Muckross House and Ross Castle.
Just outside Killarney, Torc Waterfall offers a short and rewarding woodland walk to a 20-metre cascade—particularly impressive after rain.
For a real sense of wild Kerry, walk or cycle through the Gap of Dunloe, a dramatic glacial valley nestled between towering peaks. Or enjoy it the traditional way, by pony and trap.
