Lusty Beg Island

Really enjoyed our trip to Lusty Beg, hopefully go back again soon

We had a room which was comfortable and well furnished but too warm with no way of controlling the room temperature. The bathroom wasn’t that clean and one of the teacups had the previous guest’s dirty spoon and some tea in it. However, none of the others in our party had anything but good things to say about the hotel so this was definitely a one off! The cooked breakfast was one of the nicest I’ve eaten and the setting is beautiful.

Fabulous island views

Beautiful location, stunning surroundings, rooms are very basic for the price (no fridge in room which is needed especially as there are no shops on the island so bringing your own water/drinks/snacks are a must) we were expecting a bit more luxury having paid so much for our room, pool was fine however no jacuzzi/hottub, just a sauna, bar was good craic and breakfast was luvly with plenty of options (again no water for drinking only juice) the 4 of us did have a great time all in all.

Had booked this trip for myself, my son, my friend and her son. The boys are teenagers and on the spectrum and had been here before but the place has gone drastically downhill and the boys whose only holiday it was were gutted. The chalet smelt of damp and the beds were unclean and had bugs in them. The pool was ok but dirty as well as changing rooms. The wifi didn't work at all throughout our whole stay and the boys had brought an xbox etc so it was no use. Then when we tried to do other activities the games room was falling apart with no usable equipment paddles broken in half etc and pool table didnt take our money and the tennis court only allowed 2 people at a time and charged me £10 deposit for 2 rackets. The kids had nothing to do after walking round island. My package included breakfast but on arrival was told it didn't until I showed my email then the older lady receptionist said 'ok well if it says so'. However this info was not passed on and in the morning the breakfast staff queried when I was paying for breakfast. We were charged twice for other peoples dinner bills when paying our own and had to point it out to staff who didnt bring our change when they finally corrected the bill. The archery and speedboat activities are far too overpriced, very short and shared with a big group which we werent made aware of my son never took part in after paying due to the insensitive nature of the facilitator. On the last night the carbonara gave me food poisoning. Devastated

Fantastic location and views. Can understand why it is so popular for weddings. Service provided by friendly staff was great. Main hotel bar and dining areas are comfortable, relaxed, and homely. The dining menu covered quite a few bases. The dishes we chose were very tasty. Wouldn't be as formal a dining environment as some other hotels in the Enniskillen area but it was grand nonetheless. We were placed in an upstairs room in one of the houses in the resort. Nice big room with two double beds and a reasonably sized bathroom. Beds were comfy. Room was reasonably clean. Window areas could be a little cleaner. We had a couple of spiders in the room, perhaps not surprising given the rustic settings and nature of the accommodation (is separate houses rather than a modern hotel block). Would have given 4 out of 5 overall but for the lack of sleep we had on our first and ultimately only night at the hotel. One or more of the downstairs rooms in our house and/or neighbouring houses had a number of your men who had been guests at the wedding that day. They made quite a bit of noise throughout the night which kept us a d other guests awake.

Rooms are well finished but well used. Rooms are located in detached houses, each with four rooms. These are Hostel grade. The other guests were all on stag or hen weekends, most had brought large quantities of alcohol with them. Food was awful. Our waitress finally admitted that the only chef on was a trainee and couldn't cope.

Fantastic stay. Brief overnight trip. Left the world on the other side of the ferry.

Excellent resort, friendly staff. Pricing reasonable.
