Only issue was only one shower in a house which accomodates 10.We could work around that but would imagine issues with ten adults.

House was lovely.Right in the middle of The Strand.Perfect for Restaraunts and Cafes.Amazing views out of the living room and bedroom windows at front of house.Instant hot water and well equipped kitchen for all our needs for six adults and four children.

Rear entrance is not the best, but nothing much really can be done given the location of the property.

Views are amazing, location is great. Lots of bedrooms, comfy beds, great place to stay

It’s ideal, can’t fault it at all.

The perfect location with the most spectacular views!!

The apartment had been cleaned to a reasonable standard and given pets were allowed we did not expect perfection but a used cotton bud in one of the master bedroom bedside drawers and a random pair of earrings on the lounge window sill didn't represent the attention to detail we'd perhaps expect for a £2k+ a week rental. But we would return 👍

The location is superb and really what you pay for. I spent every evening sat gazing at the sea which at full tide can be quite dramatic. The big windows afford a view from pretty much one end of the promenade to the other. We enjoyed fantastic communications from the owners who very generously allowed us in early which was much appreciated after a long overnight ferry crossing and drive. Setting us an account up on Disney+ was a very nice, personal touch.

Fab house for a large family, very clean and comfortable and in a great location. This wasn't our first time staying and won't be the last. We left something behind in the property and the hosts very kindly posted it to us.

Fantastic location. We had a fantastic weekend family break away. There were 9 adults and 3 children and lots of room for us all.

We had thought that the living are may be too small for the 7 of us but it was fine. The kitchen area is small but well equipped. We did not sit at the table as it only seated four but had enough room to cook and prepare meals.

Wonderful location and ample space in the bedrooms for our family. The views out across the water to the Donegal headlands was fantastic. The property was warm and comfortable. There was some high winds when we were there and so a bit of wind noise which was to be expected but good solid windows that shut out the weather noise.

Finding the parking space was difficult due to unfamiliarity of area/small roads. (Maybe more specific instructions?) Also, unfortunately, due to the holiday timing, there were other cars blocking the entrance to the specified parking area so we were unable to utilise the space. (It would have given us some peace of mind knowing our cars were in an allotted spot) It would have been helpful to have a body soap/shampoo available considering other self-catering accommodations usually supplied a minimal amount. (I was tickled to see some dog kibble in a can but we remembered ours) I’m pretty sure there usually would have been tea bags available since there was loads of sugar, but found none. (Minor inconvenience but we left the box we purchased for future guests) :) Perhaps a map of areas that are walking distance from property where dog owners can “relieve” their dogs would be useful in future. This was a wonderful location, my family and out of town guests had a comfortable stay.

The property location is amazing, right in the middle of the main road(promenade) where the view is amazing and ALL cafes, shops are at your doorstep. The rooms were clean and spacious, a welcome booklet informed us how heating worked and what we needed to do upon checkout. The water pressure was lovely and there were no issues with heating. All guests had a bed/room to themselves which worked out perfectly for us. Cooking utensils were adequate and there were more than enough mugs, glasses, plates, cutlery as well. It is so helpful that an accommodation that could house our party of 7 was also dog friendly (Golden Retriever). The little garden space in back was convenient to be able to let the dog get some fresh air too.

The back entrance is very steep and a little bit tricky to find your way. If the kitchen and bathroom were updated it would make The Porthole even more special to stay in.

Beautiful views and a very comfortable property for a weekend stay with our family in Portstewart. Emma was very helpful and replied quickly to my queries.

It's location was fantastic although car parking was an issue as others had parked in the designated porthole area. Great size just kitchen wasn't as clean as I would have expected.

A group of us stayed here for our friends wedding and we had a wonderful time. The property is set right on the beachfront which meant we had AMAZING sunset views. It was clean, spacious and had everything that we needed. The property manager Emma was very helpful and got back to us quickly whenever we had any questions. Great value for money, would definitely stay here again!

Only one shower between eight was poor. Insufficient seating in the lounge for eight. Difficulty opening some windows.

Location and view were excellent. Parking was acceptable when arriving back late in the afternoon but very busy during the day with day trippers.

accessibility from car park to the property wasn’t great . there was a walk across the back of other properties to a series of steps which were quite steep and slippy particularly in wet weather the. property could have been cleaner. we moved the sofa so that we could enjoy the view and there were crisp crumbs behind it. some of the drawers were not clean and the fridge had not been cleaned fully . congealed milk at back of fridge under drawer . insufficient cooking utensils in kitchen and only4 seats at table

the location was fantastic the views were absolutely beautiful it was great to have free parking also

The roof sounding like it was about to fly off in top bedrooms! Host was contacted and did send out a guy to try and fix it. But this didn't help. Think it really needs looking at as this was end of June. Would not want to be staying over winter.
