Beautiful beach ideal for walking
Very limited in amenities, you have to eat in the hotel as there are no restaurants in Portmarnock and the nearest are in Malahide or Howth.
Staff should be more helpful and considerate to residents
Its a wonderful place with one of the best beaches just outside the hotel.
Malahide is gorgeous
The beach at Portmarnock was so beautiful. If we had good weather in this country you wouldn't want to go anywhere else!
