We are going on our 4th trip (yes Michele you are right it has grown on us) bringing our 26 old daughter and 31 year old son for the first time and looking for 2 nights in Galway. Stayed at Cashelmara and it was fine. Any other recomendations?
I stayed at Seabreeze last time and it was wonderful. It is in Salthill near Cashelmara. Marless House is an old favorite and a little closer in to Galway City.
Not sure if you're looking for a self-catering, but we are staying at Swallow Loft, just a bit outside of Galway this summer. I'll let you know how it goes, but it looks wonderful. www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p497959
Marless House is our go to place when staying in Salthill, it's a nice walk into Galway City along the promenade. Last year, during the heat wave, Mary set up a fan in our room.
