We booked our wedding back in January 2021. There was only one hotel we wanted and that was the Kenmare Bay Hotel. They did not disappoint! We can't thank Alan enough and all the staff at the hotel for everything they did for us. They made our day so special. The build-up was very calm and …

enjoyable. All our guests are still complimenting the food. Alan did a fantastic job as MC on the day and could easily pass as a comedian. We would highly recommend the Kenmare Bay Hotel to any newly engaged couples who are looking for a hotel that goes above and beyond.

Where do we start... The Kenmare Bay Hotel was everything and more we could have asked for on our special Day. From the moment we viewed it back in February 2023, we knew it would be a good one. Alan and his team made the build-up to our Wedding so easy, nothing too big or too small was an issue. …

Alan was continually in touch with us over the past year or so and guided us every step of the way. The day of the wedding itself- it ran so smoothly and when we arrived at the hotel reception we were greeted by Alan and Sile and a glass of bubbles.

From there on everything was such a pleasure. All of our family and friends have complimented the hotel from its customer service, and décor to the amazing meal that we received from the chefs in the kitchen. Everything was top-class. Alan is such a professional at what he does and is a great man for a laugh and a bit of craic along the way. We enjoyed our time with him.

The kids club service that was an option in the hotel was also excellent, both our children and our nephews enjoyed two hours of kids' entertainment, while parents got to enjoy their meals. Knowing that they were being cared for, as well as entertained was very reassuring for us. Everything from start to finish during the weekend of our wedding was very special to us. It was an amazing weekend, and we have to credit the Kenmare Hotel for being a very special part of this weekend. We will for sure be back at the hotel and hope to spend many more weekends there in the future.

Thanks again to Alan, Sheila, and all of the team at the KBH.

What can I say from the moment we met Alan & the staff everything just fell into place.
Nothing was a problem and they were on hand to help us organise and plan our very special day.
From the chauffeur picking me up and transporting me to the church and then as newlyweds to the Venue it was top …

class. The staff were second to none and did everything for us. The food was outstanding everyone enjoyed it and even to date are still talking about it.
Alan & his team at Kenmare Bay are outstanding and deserve all the recognition for a smashing venue.
I look forward to returning every year to celebrate our anniversary.
Thank you from Mr& Mrs Walsh

Our wedding day was everything we had hoped for and 100 times more. We had a difficult year with illness earlier on and, during that time, we didn’t even know if we could go ahead with the wedding due to treatment dates, etc. However, after contacting Alan at the Kenmare Bay Hotel, he did …

everything possible to ensure that if the wedding went ahead, it would be everything we wanted. Not only did it turn out to be exactly that, but it also exceeded our expectations and became one of those perfect days.

Alan and his team are the best in the business. The attention to detail for the ceremony, the room setup for the reception, the food on the day, the excellent coordination between Alan and our other suppliers—the photographer, our cake maker, etc.—and the absolute professionalism and warmth displayed by the entire team were second to none. We cannot recommend the Kenmare Bay Hotel highly enough and would give it five stars.

So, if you are planning a wedding, give Alan at the Kenmare Bay Hotel a call, and you can be assured that your wedding will be in the safest of hands. We cannot wait to go back and visit the hotel next year for our first anniversary.

We had the joy of celebrating our wedding at the beautiful Kenmare Bay Hotel.
From the very first meeting with Alan, he made us feel so relaxed. Alan and his team are professional and honestly couldn’t do enough. We had a civil ceremony, and the way everything was arranged by the staff was simply …

beautiful. The food is delicious, with a great selection to suit everyone. The rooms are cosy and exceptionally clean. My two kids love the Bay Hotel and always ask to go back (which we’ve done a few times since!).

The staff are truly outstanding and very friendly—nothing is too much trouble. This hotel is a must for anyone planning their wedding; you will not be disappointed.
