We got married in the Dingle Skellig this past April and we couldn't recommend it enough. Gavin was our wedding coordinator and he went above and beyond from start to finish, nothing was too big of an ask. He was so friendly and professional throughout, and took every bit of stress out of the equation- he was an absolute superstar! All hotel staff were brilliant and helped us all to feel at home. We were inundated with comments from guests as to how amazing the food and service was on the day. We were a bit unlucky weather wise with a wind warning on the day, but the hotel adapted the ceremony and drinks reception without hesitation and the day could not have gone better! Even in the midst of a storm, the views are nothing short of spectacular. We are so happy we chose the Skellig as our wedding venue, we enjoyed every second of our weekend and felt so relaxed thanks to their care and attention. It will always have a special place in our hearts and we can't wait to visit again soon.

From the first time we walked in the door , till the wedding day and after , the service was fantastic , such friendly warm and professional staff , that helped us endlessly. From the smallest of question to giving advice for the day itself they were always there.

The food was 5 star and everyone couldn't believe the quality as well as quantity , they made a massive impression to people who had never been before .

We had our wedding in the Dingle Skellig Hotel on Friday September 30th 2016 and every facet of the experience was fantastic!
From start to finish, the care and attention to detail for the day itself and the ease at which they handled our guest reservations was seamless.
I must make a particular mention to Rosarii Galvin the wedding co-ordinator at the Skellig, she was fantastic and was a massive help to myself and my wife in preparing for the day and obviously on the day itself. She handled all of our requests with ease and I must say made us feel at ease on the day as you could sense she was extremely well prepared for any eventuality that could potentially arise!

Got married in the Dingle Peninsula in August 2016, and my husband and I held our wedding reception at the Dingle Skellig Hotel. We were delighted with how the day went. The Skellig is a well-oiled machine when it comes to weddings and you are in good hands! Really noted the friendly and professional staff and the relaxing atmosphere at the hotel. Found the wedding co-ordinating team to be very accommodating throughout the wedding planning. And on the big day itself, the service and food were faultless.

I was initially concerned about having my wedding abroad but after meeting the team at the skellig I was relaxed straight away. The team were so friendly and professional no question was too big or too small. The day went perfectly everyone commented on the beautiful setting. Everything was so organised. The food was delicious, you would never know it was cooked for so many. All in all it was the perfect day!

I fell in love with the Dingle Skellig the minute I saw it and everything after that was perfect.

They looked after us and our family and friends so well.

They were on hand midweek and weekends to assist with queries leading up to the wedding - which was doubly tricky for us as we live in London.

Can honestly say I wouldn't want to do it over again because it was so perfect and those memories will last a lifetime thanks to the team.

The team are as equally professional as they are helpful and fun

I have to give five stars across he board for the skellig hotel. We had a fantastic day for our wedding. As the weather was so good the hotel organised to have the music outside it was fantastic beautiful views, champagne, food just a complete dream. The hotel staff could not do enough for us, we stayed the night before the wedding so they started our day off with breakfast and as we were getting ready just one phone call and we had whatever we wanted. I had two small children and they gave them gifts that then played with all day. It was like a staff member magically took a trip to smyths. Our day was just like a dream all thanks to the skellig a magical place with fantastic staff to treat you like royalty from start to finish.

My wife and I were elated with the success of our wedding, which went over and above our expectations. The staff made sure everything was to our satisfaction. They were flexible with a day-of decision to change rooms and also accommodated an outdoor ceremony on the lawn - what a stunning location. Food and service were impeccable - our dear family and friends who traveled with us from Canada for the wedding had such a fabulous time, with many lasting memories. We would do it all over again!

Having worked as a wedding coordinator in a 5 star hotel I had huge expectations and standards that I wanted met, all I can say is wow!!

I dealt with Aisling Flahive, she was amazing! From the moment we met for our first enquiry I found her an absolute pleasure to deal with! She was so professional, so determined and so helpful. I could not have asked for better, her attention to detail was amazing and each time I visited the hotel in the lead up to our wedding she made me feel right at home!

Although Aisling was not there the day of my wedding I knew I was in safe hands. I knew that she made sure that everything would be perfect. We dealt with rosari in the days leading to our wedding, again I can't say enough about her. The moment we arrived to the hotel we were made feel so welcome and at home!

Sheila and Breda helped us with the room reservations, again they were so responsive to my million emails!

All the staff in the hotel and management were amazing. They know weddings!! They do them well!! I wish I could do it all over again. We had an amazing weekend.
All our friends and family could say enough about the food, the service and atmosphere in the hotel.

From the bottom of our hearts thank you to all the staff and special thanks to Aisling! We look forward to making many more memories in Dingle. This hotel holds a special place in our hearts! Thank you!

Vincent and I married in beautiful Dingle on July 3rd 2015. Vincent is a Dingle man and I'm from Kerry's arch rival county of Cork!! Being a Cork woman people might have thought we would marry Leeside however there was never any doubt it would be anywhere but Dingle. It was a magnificent backdrop for our special day.

Once getting engaged there wasn't any question really where we would have the reception. It had to be the Dingle Skellig Hotel. Anyone that we know that married here had nothing but praise for the Hotel itself and even more so the staff. It's situated on Dingle bay with breath taking views. We liaised with Sheila O' Connor and I have to say from our very first meeting, Sheila was so friendly,helpful and accommodating, an absolute pleasure to deal with. Any questions we had (and there was many!!!)Sheila always got back to us straight away and there was never any problem. The entire staff are so professional and so pleasant. Even though they have hosted so many wedding receptions previous to ours we really felt we were the only ones to ever marry there. We were made feel that special. The day before our wedding we brought all our bits and pieces and explained where we wanted them put and they were exactly laid out as we imagined. You can rest assured everything is done to the highest standard.The Dingle Skellig Hotel are perfectionists at what they do, absolutely brilliant.
The morning of our wedding I got ready in the stunning honeymoon suite with my bridesmaids and Mom and that was one of my favourite parts of the day ( apart from marrying the love of my life of course!!). Anything we needed or wanted wasn't a problem.The Champagne reception was gorgeous. We had the weather on our side so our guests could sit outside and enjoy the spectacular views.The meal was absolutely delicious and so many guests commented on this part of the day.

Overall I couldn't recommend the Dingle Skellig Hotel high enough for a wedding. The entire staff are absolutely outstanding at what they do and more importantly are kind and friendly which in my book says an awful lot about what kind of a hotel it is. I want to thank Sheila and every staff member there for making our wedding day so very special.

Jean and Vincent,

Some words I would use to describe our wedding at the Dingle Skellig Hotel would be flawless and magical. It was truly an epic day, despite all the curve balls that were thrown at them, including the added difficulty of planning a wedding with a bride and her mother with lofty ideas who live on another continent!
The Skellig was the most reliable, steady, and dependable piece of the entire puzzle. They and their staff just made things happen- and you made it look so easy! From the guest accommodations to the welcome boxes their team helped construct and deliver, to the manicurist who was in my room the day-of painting nails (per my last-minute request), to the wedding day groomsmen lunch and early check-in, to the last minute shuttle their staff arranged for me to deliver boxes (with Elaine)... my time at the Skellig just didn't feel like real life. It was TOO good. Not to mention- one of my bridesmaids accidentally left her Jimmy Choo designer shoes that she wore on her wedding day, and you shipped them back to the states!! She received them within DAYS of her inquiry. The Skellig is a well-oiled machine and it was an honor for me to be able to share it with our family and friends. The mantra since our wedding has been that it was an experience of a lifetime... and I know this was largely due to their efforts and the Dingle Skellig Hotel. Thank you so much!!

My husband and I decided on the Skellig hotel as our wedding venue for a number of reasons. Obviously, the hotel's location is absolutely beautiful, blessed as it is with panoramic views of Dingle Bay and the surrounding hills.
The staff and management were not only very friendly and engaging, but also thoroughly professional in every way, with all of our many questions and requests for our big day being dealt with swiftly and meticulously. All of our concerns were assuaged and the staff were full of recommendations and local contact details for musicians, florists, hairdressers etc. The function room itself was not only beautiful, but excellent in practical terms too, with both a fully-stocked and a sizeable dance floor.
The Skellig's performance on the day of our wedding could not be improved upon ? I was slightly sceptical that they would be able to reproduce the quality of the food that we were given at our menu tasting, but not only were they able to do so, they were able to do it for over 90 people. The feedback we received from our guests in this regard was unanimous too. There were a small number of issues during the course of the day (these were not the hotel's fault) that were resolved by the staff quickly and without fuss. We were put in the absolutely incredible presidential suite for the night and our only regret was that we didn't have more time there as it really was something special.

The overall price was incredible value given the level of service provided and the facilities available ? from the Spa to the child-minding options, it was all exemplary. I can't recommend the Skellig as both a wedding venue and a hotel highly enough ? you will be in excellent hands with Graham, Sheila, Rosarii, Aisling and all the team looking after you.
