Relaxing Oasis

Our trip to the Grotto Spa was a highlight of our stay! After indulging in relaxing treatments, we enjoyed the soothing atmosphere and luxurious amenities like the mineral pools. It was the perfect way to unwind and rejuvenate after our wedding festivities.

We had an amazing dining experience at Cedars restaurant. The atmosphere was great, and the food was absolutely delicious, especially the tapasin served during our stay. I can't stop thinking about the flavors and quality!

Stunning Oceanview Suite

Staying in an oceanfront suite was amazing! The spacious room featured a fantastic view of the beach, a cozy fireplace, and ample amenities. Every morning started perfectly with coffee on the deck, overlooking the beautiful scenery.

Luxurious Bathroom

The bathroom in our room was simply luxurious! With spa amenities and heated floors, it was my little retreat each morning. It truly added to our overall experience at the resort.

Tigh-Na-Mara Resort is a lovely place for relaxation, featuring a beautiful spa and cozy cottages that evoke a rustic charm. The Sunday brunch buffet is a highlight, especially with its emphasis on local seafood. However, I had a frustrating experience with the wedding coordination, which left much to be desired, affecting the overall enjoyment of my stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this resort, with a cozy and clean spa bungalow that made my experience truly relaxing. The staff, especially Meaghan and Giuliana, were exceptional and added a personal touch to our visit. However, my overall experience was slightly marred by a lack of value for money as some of the amenities came with extra fees.

I had an unforgettable experience celebrating my mother's 92nd birthday at this beautiful resort. The cabins were tranquil and perfect for our group, while the condos offered breathtaking views, albeit with more noise. The service was absolutely superior, especially with the thoughtful golf cart rides for my mother. However, one guest did mention a disappointing experience due to the overall condition of the woodland cabins, which could certainly benefit from some upgrades.

The resort offers a fabulous spa experience and stunning views, making it enjoyable for relaxation. However, the overall resort is somewhat dated and could use significant updates. While the service at the spa is top-notch, it seems to fall short in other areas, especially during check-in. We found some dining choices to be unexpectedly pricey, which made us question the overall value for money.

Tigh-Na-Mara offers a rustic and pet-friendly experience that I found enjoyable, especially with the close proximity to the beach and numerous walking trails. The amenities like the pool, gym, and hot tub served us well, and the on-site restaurant delivered a good dining experience. However, I felt the overall spa facilities and some rooms needed an update to match the expectations of a luxury retreat.
