Accommodation
Reflecting the warmth and hospitality of the Hotel and town of Castleisland, each guestroom at the River Island overlooks the bustling main street or surrounding area. Food & Drink
While respecting old values of courtesy and discretion, we also pride ourselves on our friendly, relaxed approach. Here we mix fine food, superb wines and friendly professional service for a traditional, yet refreshingly modern eating experience for you to enjoy. Entertainment
Like all Kerry towns, entertainment is very much to the forefront in Castlelsland. The town comes to life during the traditional Padraig O Keeffe festival. Traditional musicians come from all over to honour the local fiddle player each October. Location
Castleisland is situated in the Valley of the River Maine and only 5 miles from Kerry Airport.

Kerry is full of incredible places to discover, and the Kerry Cliffs are certainly one of them.

Located near Portmagee on the southwest coast of Kerry, the cliffs rise high above the Atlantic, with sweeping views across the coastline and out towards the Skellig Islands.

A little further afield from Castleisland, but well worth adding to your list when exploring Kerry.
