Wedding Testimonials

We held our wedding reception in The Broadhaven Bay Hotel and we cannot speak highly enough of the venue and the staff. From the moment we arrived to enquire about our wedding, right up to our wedding day, we never experienced anything but first class service from this hotel. A sincere thank you to David and Josephine who assisted us through the planning stages of our wedding and for their help on the day itself. They could not have done more to assist us or make our day more perfect. Everything about the service on the day was of the highest standard and was complimented upon by many of our guests. The food was amazing. No request was too much trouble. The meal was wonderful, well served, piping hot and plentiful!

The grounds of the hotel are spectacular with gorgeous gardens and amazing views, which lent themselves perfectly to our wedding photographs and video.

The attention to detail throughout the hotel on our wedding day was outstanding and the reception room looked magical with beautiful flowers, centrepieces, chair covers, table runners and lit up backdrop behind the top table. Also, the spacious foyer area allowed for us to have a cupcake and sweet stand for our guests throughout the day. We would most definitely recommend the Broadhaven Bay for holding the reception for your big day. It will be difficult to beat it for value, hospitality, quality of service and peace of mind before and on your big day.

Our wedding experience at the Broadhaven Bay Hotel was a phenomenal one. Most of all it is a special place with the most welcoming, kind, honest and hardworking team of people at its core. We could not rate this venue highly enough. The management, staff, food, services were all of the highest standards and quality. From the moment we had settled on this venue David, Josephine and all of the staff could not have been more hands on and cooperative. They exceeded all of our expectations ten fold in terms of their attention to detail, going the extra mile and just general professionalism which I don't think I have ever witnessed before or will again. 

They are the hardest working team of people and totally committed to ensuring that your day is not only the most special of your lives but is a special day for all of your guests too which was evident by the response from ALL of our 350 guests as they truly had a magnificent experience and were so impressed with the homely atmosphere and how well they were treated by staff. I have yet to attend a wedding or experience the quality of service we received at any other hotel - other venues just pale in comparison for me personally. Any requests I had for David & Josephine (there were plenty!) they obliged me on every one of them and then some!

On the day of wedding I was overwhelmed with how beautiful the hotel looked and all the extra touches they laid as a surprise! Wow! The drinks reception was laid out so elegantly and all the unusual appetizers we had asked for were there in abundance, tasted delicious and served so beautifully. The reception area was like stepping into another world , it was amazing! They added on so many extra touches we could not take it all in at once, they surpassed all of our expectations. 

This hotel is one of the top wedding venues in the country and is fast becoming THE place to hold your big day for all of the reasons stated above but also because it is so reasonable and the standard of service you receive truly does not reflect the cost. I would urge anyone getting married to seriously consider this venue as you will not be disappointed. They sincerely made our day a magical one and we will never forget them for it.

James and I had our wedding reception in the Broadhaven Bay Hotel and I cant express how happy we were with service and the venue. Our wedding was in December and there was heavy snowfall and roads and they were almost impassable. Thanks to David (manager) he didn't let the weather hinder our big day. Everything was beautiful - from greeting us, to the meal which was excellent and service top class.

I would like to thank all the staff for such an amazing day. I had lots of guests from England and they had never seen service and hospitality like in Broadhaven. Thankfully all our guests got to hotel safely as the snow was a concern. Management made sure that people who hadn't planned to stay the night got a room due to weather. They organiesd everything to such fine detail I had no organising to do at all - all we had to do was show up! They also took care of our wedding transport for us . Thanks David once again for getting us there safely as it was artic conditions.

All I say to anyone who is considering getting married Broadhaven Bay - this is the place, you will not find better. If I were to rate this place, five stars would not be enough.

We had our Wedding reception at the Broadhaven Bay Hotel and we couldn't have been happier with our choice of venue. From the moment we went to the hotel to enquire about the venue, through until the big day itself, we were overwhelmed at how personal, helpful and naturally confident everyone at the hotel was. Josephine, Dean and David could not have been more helpful and relaxed. We live in London and so we were not able to make many trips to the hotel in preparation, but this was not a problem because we had so much confidence in the hotel. They took the stress out of the preparation completely.

Our guests were equally impressed with the hotel throughout their stay. The warmth of all of the staff, the fantastic quality of food (including breakfast, bar and restaurant), the facilities (including pool and beauty/hair salon) and the location in general. The food at our wedding was exceptionally good and this was commented on by many of our guests. The preparation of the reception room was unbelievable, in our video you can see our guests saying how lovely, beautiful and "wow" the room looked as they walked in. There was no stone unturned and nothing that was too much to ask of the staff, including the owners who played a part in our wedding, which only reflects again the personal touch that the Broadhaven Bay offers. Even after our wedding day, the staff were really helpful and friendly, always around and ensuring that we and our guests were looked after and that everything was ok. When our guests were leaving I found myself walking them to the door because I felt so at home at the hotel!

If you are considering the Broadhaven Bay as a potential venue for your wedding, then look no further because this hotel will not dissappoint you. We are going back to Belmullet in January and I'm really looking forward to going to the Broadhaven Bay and to say hello to everyone that helped to make our amazing day so amazing!

We had our wedding reception at the Broadhaven in July. Coming from Westport, we had a variety of local hotels to choose from but we decided to take a gamble and make the trip to Belmullet. And we are so delighted that we did!

David and Josephine went above and beyond the call of duty to make our day smooth and stress free. Nothing was too much trouble- highlights included a champagne picnic at the beach, a birthday cake for my cousin's son on the next morning and breakfast for family members who had brought their camper van, free of charge!! At our after party the following night, the stories of the fantastic service received by the guests kept on coming- everyone was so amazed at their experience at the hotel.

The Broadhaven Bay represents terrific value for money in these difficult times, but it offers so much more than that- it offers genuine hospitality and staff that give an awful lot of themselves to make a wedding day truly extraordinary. Thanks again to all the staff and management for an outstanding day,
