Fodor's Review:

Meet the locals and enjoy spacious accommodation at this new (2007) waterfront hotel and apartment complex. Goldens Cove is a rocky, sheltered spot, with views of distant mountains. The large stone portico on the long, curving three-story building leads to an airy lobby, decorated with original Irish art and cushy sofas. Beyond is a huge double-height bar and separate restaurant, both with large verandas overlooking the sea. Facilities are shared by guests in the 25 self-catering apartments in the adjacent, "twin" building. It's worth paying a small premium for a sea-facing room with balcony to enjoy the setting sun. All rooms are decorated in tones of beige, brightened by touches of red, with light-wood furniture and black leather armchairs. Pros: large, modern rooms; friendly service. Cons: some new development detracts from the views; large bar and restaurant can be a bit eerie when not busy.
