This property was perfect if you have multiple pets and need a fenced in yard. They loved hanging out in the enclosed porch- wish we could have enjoyed a sunset while we were there but the Nor-easter coming through had other plans.

So clean! This place had the prettiest views of anywhere we have ever stayed! And having the dog area fenced in is so ideal- it was freezing when we were there but I know we would have loved it in the summer! I highly recommend this spot- the owners were so communicative and this place is just perfect!

One of the very best Vbro places to stay. Bantry Baydream is equipped with all amenities needed, making our stay a delight. The sunset photos that others have posted don't do justice to the view. The pod of 10 or 12 dolphins that swam by were icing on the cake. FIVE STARS!!

The home was clean and comfortable. Communication with the hosts was excellent and thorough. There was a fenced yard for the pets. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly. The view of the bay was a favorite aspect of our visit, and we spent hours each day enjoying the dock, especially for sunsets. We definitely hope to visit again.
Beautiful sunsets
