Holiday Resorts in Ireland

Dream Ireland Holiday Homes has a wonderful stock of Holiday Resorts throughout Ireland. With onsite facilities including hotel, spa, bars, restaurants, leisure centres, playgrounds, tennis courts and golf courses, a Dream Ireland Holiday Resort is the perfect holiday destination.

What will the sleeping arrangements be?

Dream Ireland offer a variety of accommodation types and in many of our Resorts have a choice of accommodation types to choose from, from large 8 bedroom units at the Abbey Court Hotel to our luxury 2 bedroom lodges at Castlemartyr Resort.

What kind of facilities will I expect to find in our self-catering holiday homes?

It may be stating the obvious, but self-catering holiday homes with hotel facilities onsite are ideally suited to families travelling with young children. The extra space is a major plus, but so is a fully fitted kitchen (where you can whip up inexpensive meals or your kid’s favourite snacks, warm up bottles, and store all the essentials need when travelling with babies and toddlers such as breast milk or formula).

And of course, once the kids are gone to bed it’s nice to have another room where the adults in the party can hang out without disturbing the younger members of the family. A separate living room serves as the perfect place to sit and relax with a glass of wine and a movie. The addition of a nice garden or green area where the entire family can sit out of an evening is a major plus!

If you never gave your laundry a second thought on your holidays before, my guess is, you do now! Travelling with children and babies you would need another holiday after catching up on the laundry once you return home.

All our family friendly Dream Ireland cottages are fully equipped with washing machines and in most cases dryers also, meaning you can bang a load of washing in at the end of a fun-filled but messy day, alleviating the gigantic chore of catching up with the laundry once you get back home. 

And not forgetting Dream Ireland Holiday Homes also provide all your bed linen and towels for use in the holiday home, making your packing a little lighter! You will need to bring bed linen however for the baby crib or cot.

Although a self-catering cottage offers the freedom and independence of home, if you don’t fancy cooking big meals every night, our restaurants at Dream Ireland’s family friendly Resorts offer very good kids menus and convenient family-dining hours.

Is there a pool?

Many of Dream Ireland’s Holiday Resorts offer full leisure centre facilities including pool, gym and in many cases a separate kiddies pool.

Is there a Kids’ Club?

Kids’ Clubs can be handy for kids who want to interact with other children and make new friends. Dream Ireland are delighted to offer seasonal kids clubs in many of our family friendly Holiday Resorts throughout Ireland.

Is WIFI available?

We all know how important WIFI is, be it for work or leisure. Many of Dream Ireland’s Holiday Resorts offer wifi in the hotel and/or in our self-catering accommodation.

What kind of facilities can you expect to find at your Dream Ireland Holiday Resort?

Is there entertainment at night?

Many of our Dream Ireland Holiday Homes offer evening entertainment with some also offering an evening kids program or supervised play so the kids can play safely while the adults have a glass of wine.

Deciding what you are looking for in a Resort.

Where you might previously have looked for something described as “young and lively” you are now more likely to seek out “family friendly” locations with mentions of onsite playgrounds, kids club and babysitting facilities. Fortunately, you won’t have to look very far as Dream Ireland Holiday Homes offer more family-friendly Holiday Resorts with child-friendly amenities than ever before.

Self-catering Resorts in Ireland with hotel facilities are becoming the most popular choice of holiday for families holidaying in Ireland with young children as many of our self-catering cottages offer pool, kids club, babysitters and free WIFI (please view our website or enquire with a Dream Ireland Representative for more details).
