This caravan is one of the best location parks I have stayed in. Direct access to the beach it was fantastic, Keel beach is a 3km beach and wonderful for kids. The caravan park itself was fine with electric and easy access to water. The shower blocks were not so nice - perfectly functional but I would not say they... More

I stayed here for a weekend with a group of friends some of whom had babies and children. The campsite location is good - most of the good reviews here seem to be reviews of Achill itself rather than the campsite! The place is overpriced for what you get, e.g. charging extra per person rather than just charging for a... More

Just recently returned from a scout camping trip. Fantastic location, very spacious. Facilities were excellent for our needs - showers, laundry, camping facilities and a rec hall. James the site manager was very friendly and treated us very well. The location is very central for surf and bike hire. lovely coffee shops, especially Blackfields (try the apple sponge cakes). the... More

Our first night on Achill was unfortunately spent at this asylum for the terminally bored and pathologically delinquent...but enough about the staff for now. Having seen the general filth of the facilities upon our arrival, we should have left at that point but it was late and we decided to pitch and strike camp early in the morning. It was... More

We stayed here for 5 nights with the children. Yes, the beachside location and views of the minauns are fab -- but the campsite itself is of a low standard. Lots of beer bottle caps and cigarette butts on the ground, dirty toilets and showers, and staff too young, casual and inexperienced . We love achill, so this is such... More

Friendly welcome by staff. Fabulous location and services. Need a few more toilets and showers, could be a little better. Stunning views right beside the beach. We could HIGHLY recommend eating in the chalet in keel (it doesn't appear on tripadvisor), some of the best seafood we'v ever had.

Went to Achill with a group of friends last summer and spent 4 days in the Keel Sandybanks Camp and Caravan site. It was fantastic! The beach is glorious, the view is fantastic and the local pub is the best place to have a few too many. The people who look after the camp site are really friendly and always... More

Keel is stunning, the site really is right beside the beach. The beach is one of 5 blue flag beaches on Achill, not bad for a wee island. The site is quite expensive, very busy and the toilets could do with more regular cleaning. The wait for the showers was very, very long. Apart from these niggles, the position of... More

We camped for 3 nights in Sandybanks, Keel, Achill and are only sorry we didn't stay longer - we were literally only yards from the beach & the truly magnificent views of the Minaun cliffs & the sound of the waves rolling in at night will stay long in the memory. The campsite itself is quite exposed, it took a... More
