Chloe and the Shearwater Team, Noel and I just want to thank you for everything you have done for us on the lead up to our wedding day and on the day itself.

decor, the welcome from Chloe and all the staff, the service, and the sheer class were exactly what we were looking for on our wedding day.

Chloe was super efficient and organized in the planning of all aspects of the wedding. Offering advice and helping us out when needed, we appreciated that. Thanks to all the staff throughout the process of planning our wedding right up until the day of our wedding. Every time we visited the Shearwater from the moment we booked our wedding date, we were treated like royalty by Chloe and all the staff.

The day of the wedding ran so smoothly, greeted by Chloe and a colleague at the front door, and right throughout the day, constant checks from Chloe and the team to see if was everything okay. Our guests raved about how amazing the service was and how delicious the food was. They are still talking about that 10 weeks later.

We cannot thank Chloe enough and all the team at the Shearwater for the best day of our lives. We look forward to many visits to The Shearwater as a married couple and as a family. Thanks again Sharon and Noel x

When I arrived at the hotel I was greeted by Ruth on the day and she made us feel that everything was under control. Exactly what you need for those wedding day nerves.

Our guests are still talking about how good the food was. Our menu went down a treat and this is due to high quality and effort

put into the courses. It was so nice to sit at the top table and watch everyone enjoying themselves so much.

We would especially like to thank Estella who was always at the end of an email or telephone call. Estella made us feel at ease in the lead up to our wedding day. Also we have to mention Chloe who kindly looked after us on the day. She so carefully ensured we were ok throughout the day by checking in regularly and made sure everything ran smoothly. Even before she finished on the night, Chloe came to me to ask if there was anything further we needed before she left.

We would highly recommend the Shearwater Hotel & Spa for your big day if you are thinking about it. We would struggle to find fault, I just wish the day didn’t go by so fast.

Best wishes, Cliona & Stephen

Chloe's attention to detail and creative suggestions enabled us to have a perfect wedding day.

On the day of our wedding everything flowed so smoothly under Chloe's direction and efficiency and she had ensuredthe ceremony and function rooms were beautifully presented and decorated.

Chloe and her team were constantly checking that everything was alright for us throughout the day and night and any requests that we did have were met with enthusiastic offers of help. The hotel, the staff, the service, the food were all amazing and Chloe went above and beyond her role to ensure we had a fantastic day.

Thank you so very much.

To all the staff at The Shearwater Hotel,

We wanted to write a few words to thank The Shearwater Hotel and it's amazing staff for our wedding day and our day two.
We had the most incredible experience having our wedding reception and our day two at The Shearwater. From the first day of planning

to the weekend of our wedding, Estella and Chloe were not only so kind but also brilliant at their job. My husband and I live in Australia and there was never a time we felt we could not pick up the phone to call the wedding coordinators or send an email to the hotel staff. All the staff of The Shearwater went above and beyond to make our day and our day two unforgettable, providing invaluable guidance and support throughout the planning process and service through ever moment of our wedding weekend.
The hotel itself had a relaxed and beautiful ambiance, with beautiful Christmas decorations which set the perfect backdrop for our special day. The food was exceptional, and the service provided was excellent.
We couldn't have asked for a better venue, and I would recommend having your wedding at The Shearwater to anyone.
Thank you to all the staff and The Shearwater for creating lasting memories and making our wedding reception and day two truly exceptional.

Chloe had everything organised. We are two weeks married today and people are still talking about the venue and the food. The rump steak beef in particular. A lovely relaxed environment enjoyed by everyone. We highly recommend the Shearwater.

As many couples had to postpone our wedding due to Covid, the Shearwater was so accommodating in rescheduling our date. They kept the terms of our original contract which was much appreciated due to the current economic circumstances. Estella, Chloe and Averil kept us in the loop as to what needed

to be done and a timeline of jobs to be completed to ensure the preparation went as smoothly as possible. All of our ideas were taken on board and nothing was disregarded or too much to ask. We found the hotel to be extremely child friendly. As we had two young daughters, they ensured we had a big enough bedroom, cots, kids’ clubs and reminded us about the swimming pool. The night before the wedding we had a beautiful meal with our families, a lot more people showed up than we had originally planned. John Harvey, the bar staff and the restaurant staff assured us that there would be no problem. The Shearwater wedding team set up our memorial table, wedding favours and our kids’ area without any hesitation. The wedding day went extremely smoothly, Chloe and her team ensured the meal went as planned. (Even though we had to be rang to remind us to come back from the photos in Shannon bridge). The food was outstanding and everyone at the wedding really enjoyed it. The staff were professional, friendly and we really appreciated how flexible they were to us and our wedding party. Overall, the three nights we spent in the Shearwater Hotel was really enjoyable. From the greetings at reception, to the efficient bar service, the wedding coordination team and the restaurant staff we found everyone to be so friendly and flexible. We would have no reservations in recommending the Shearwater Hotel to friends and family for any event. A huge thank you again to all the Shearwater staff for making our day so special. We look forward to visiting the hotel soon.

Many of them had never been to the Shearwater Hotel & Spa before and they were just blown away! My Husband's Family and friends from Mayo have booked other dates with the Hotel.

The food was just sensational, couldn’t fault a single thing. Our guests and ourselves were just so impressed by the high-quality meal we received and Kevin’s neighbours and friends are still raving about the beef!

wedding as possible during this pandemic. Winston, myself and our guests had such an amazing day and was everything we had hoped for.

From the first time we viewed the venue we knew it was where we wanted to have our wedding. The staff were always so friendly and helpful with everything. The food was out of this world. Our guests are continually telling us how amazing the food and service was. The staff went out if their way to make us feel so important and make the day flow continuously.

The Wedding suite is just unbelievable such an amazing experience. We would happily move into the suite if we could! Our ballroom was private which was amazing. We had all our own facilities in the one area. The patio area is a lovely big area where we spent most of our day and evening as it was such a lovely day for our wedding.

We are so delighted we decided to go with the Shearwater Hotel and Spa as it is just such a beautiful venue with such professional, hard working, welcoming, and committed staff. We couldn't ask for more and we cannot wait to spend our Anniversary and many more occasions in the hotel. Everything was amazing and we cannot thank Estella and all the staff enough for making our wedding day so special and out of this world.

Marina bar was beautifully laid out for our guests and the walk down to the ballroom was just so beautifully decorated all along the way, as for the ballroom it was just absolutely stunning, no corners cut it looked amazing.

I don't know what I can say to do the staff justice! They were just absolutely amazing on the day and lead up to the day, there were a lot of complications and uncertainty due to Covid and changing restrictions but Estella could not have done enough to accommodate us no matter what hurdle was thrown at us, she was always on the end of an email or the phone whenever needed to reassure us and guide us through things.

The reception staff were so helpful with any queries we had in relation to rooms and bookings and were just so nice in general. Ruth looked after us on the night and ensured everything ran smoothly with service, the serving staff were so nice and the meal was served seamlessly, guests even commented to us they couldn't believe the service, there was no skimping on staff for the night, no one wanted for anything. John who looked after things in the bar was just brilliant, himself and the rest of the staff looked after us and our guests so well.

The food was just out of this world, people were talking about it for days, it was absolutely delicious and that is an understatement, the beef was a MASSIVE talking point.

We genuinely cannot thank Estella and all the staff of the Shearwater Hotel & Spa enough, each and everyone we came into contact with were so helpful, friendly & accommodating. They made the build up to the day so easy and they made the day itself run seamlessly from start to finish. We are genuinely delighted.

professionalism of the staff. It was really nice to arrive at the Hotel and instantly feel like everything was under control, even when things were so up in the air with the restrictions in place.

Estella and all the team especially made me feel at ease, answered all calls, even reminding me of the small details that I had forgotten, last minute changes and requests were dealt with without hesitation, everything was no trouble and handled in a professional manner. People have also been saying how good all the food was – which it was! So many people have said it has either been the best wedding they have ever been to or that the food has been the best they’ve ever had at a wedding. It was so nice to stand back for a moment in the evening and see everyone enjoying themselves so much. We would have no hesitations in recommending the Shearwater Hotel & Spa for anyone who is looking for a wedding Venue in the future, I just wish the day didn’t go as fast.

The hotel itself is the ideal wedding venue. The ballroom area is self-contained and private with its own bathrooms, a gorgeous outdoor Patio area which allowed guests to relax stay together throughout the evening.

We cannot thank Estella and the staff team enough for making the day so special especially with all the restrictions they had to work with ! They made the day feel like our day instead of a Covid wedding xx

The day went without a bump thanks to them all. Our guests were all taken back by the beauty of the hotel, rooms, staff, drinks and amazing food! I was trying to have a slightly "unusual", "untraditional" wedding and I feared it would be difficult but definitely was not. The Shearwater is my favourite hotel and we will continue to use the pool, bar, restaurant and B&B because of how amazing it all was and our children love it too!!

The Shearwater Hotel in Ballinasloe is a fantastic location for any wedding. The staff are amazing and went above and beyond our expectations of our wedding day, particularly the wedding co-ordinators (first Noel and then Aisling) and hotel management (Des, Liam and Colin). They offered us an all

inclusive package which is great value for money and led us directly to suppliers, making our planning less stressful. We had several meetings and made us very relaxed in the run up to the big day. The display on the day was fabulous. It was everything we could have hoped for. The service was fantastic. The dinner is still being talked about. The food is just fantastic, everyone loved it. And if anyone has an allergy, they make sure they offer them something equally as fantastic. From the drinks reception to last call in the bar (and everything in between), the staff looked after our every need. Aisling and Des were always nearby in case we needed anything. Everything ran smoothly and effortlessly, it felt as if all we had to do was be present. So much work goes on behind the scenes and this staff is extremely dedicated to their brides and grooms. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They made our wedding day to be much more than we ever thought it could be. Thank you!

till the big day, the staff couldn't do more for us. We felt so special throughout, not just another couple. We felt that the staff recognized the importance of our big just as much as we did. There are so many staff we would need to thank, too many to mention however we appreciated every single person that works in the hotel. The feedback we got from our guests, amazing food (along with excellent portions), comfortable, clean and well designed rooms and just a general lovely atmosphere around the hotel.

I cant recommend the hotel enough to future brides and grooms, it was simply amazing and we would do it all over again because of the support and service we got from the shearwater hotel.

We got married in the shearwater hotel on the 25th Aug 2017 and I must say the day was absolutely perfect!

This hotel is fabulous from start to finish. Its such a big hotel with a beautiful lobby where we had our drinks reception. The decoration of the lobby, hallway leading to the function room

and function room itself was gorgeus with lanterns, roseball centre pieces etc.

The wedding packages are so reasonable and include variety to accommodate all styles of wedding.
The staff were amazing and so helpful, anything we asked was never an issue.
We can't thank Noel Fahy, the wedding coordinator, enough for everything he did. You made the planning so easy on the run up to the wedding and I had no stress or issues leading up to the big day. All the staff and managers are so professional and so friendly and made the whole weekend so stressfree and enjoyable for us.
I can't say anything about the food only it was gorgeous, so hot, delicious and so much of it. The menu tasting was a lovely evening too where we got to enjoy a number of options so we could pick the best. Our guests were all very impressed which it was you want on your day. The function room is fab also and for our day we had the white draping all around the room which made it even more luxurious and magical. The dancefloor is also huge for everyone to dance the night away.

I would definitely recommend the shearwater to any couples planning your big day. We had the best day of our lives and that was all down to this hotel and the staff. We would love to do it all over again and have no regrets about our hotel choice. We really can't thank you all enough for everything.

Thanks again,

He made the whole planning process so much easier - Thanks Noel :).....

Also a big thank you to Susanne and Des and all their staff on the day, you guys where so friendly and professional and helped the day go perfectly (extra thank you to Susanne for sneaking us out for a breather after the meal ;) ) The food was absolutely amazing and every single guest raved about it, so hats off to the chef.

The bridal suite was stunning and hugh (the champagne breakfast was greatly appreciated also) our guests also commented on how nice the rooms where and took full advantage of the leisure area :)

This is a fantastic hotel with fantastic staff and atmosphere and you will not be disappointed if you book your wedding.

We would like to thank Noel and Karyn for all their help throughout the planning of our wedding, everytime we met we always left with smiles and no worries that our wedding day would be exactly how we wanted and it was.
Thanks to Sue and Des and their professional staff that made our day run so smoothly. Our family and friends praised the hotel very highly from the fantastic food, friendly staff and reasonable room rates which was very important to us and our guests as more then half of our guests travelled from Monghan and afar.

As the Bride and Groom on the day of our wedding, we were treated as royalty, all the staff went over and beyond for us. We would highly recommend the Shearwater Hotel to any newly engaged couple as they played a huge part in making our day one we will never forget. Xox

1) The team - Absolutely fantastic team at the hotel who's passion shows.They

made our day and guests still can't stop speaking about the warmth, flexibility, and how personable the team where. We wanted for nothing and there was no stress as they were 3 steps ahead of our needs at all times. The local knowledge helped us immensely.
2) The package - Amazing value for money, and so much choice to cater for all needs. The room, food, and service was exquisite. A wedding of this caliber would of cost at least 3 times more in UK.
3) Extras- A children's club was set up at no extra cost whilst we ate our meal. Children loved it and it allowed parents to relax.
4) Bbq next day The team arranged a Bbq for 50 people the next day. Great chance to speak with the guest next day.
5) Rooms - Not only is the hotel beautiful, but a major advantage was the fantastic family rooms, reasonable costs of room and breakfast, and the discount given to a percentage of rooms for wedding. Parents get to stay for free night of wedding.
The hotel and team exceeded not only our expectations but also our wedding guests who came from all over the world. I can't reiterate how important the hotel team are in making your wedding day special. In the shearwater you have found the perfect wedding. Each month they have a wedding fair which is worth viewing.

On the 29th of Oct 2016 myself and my husband held our wedding reception in the Shearwater hotel, and we cannot thank Karyn, Des, Liam and Sue and all the other staff enough for everything that they did for us on our special day. From the moment we visited the Shearwater we knew that this was the

venue for us. We loved the spacious reception area with plenty of room for guests, the bars location just off this area was ideally located. The function room itself and very spacious with it own toilets and smoking area that ensured that all guests were kept together. The space just outside the function room was idea for taking pictures and for setting up our photo booth. The food on the day was amazing,there was great variety with the reception food, I'm still hearing people complement how good the beef was!! everything that we had ask Karen for in advance arrived to our guests. In particular the chip shop style evening food was something most people had never seen before but boy did it go down a treat. Our wedding co-ordinator Karyn was end the end of the phone or the numerous emails that I sent...... without fail she always replied and no job or task was too big or too small for her to fulfil for us. She was amazing. The staff were polite and friendly and helps out our guests during their stay there and the spacious car park with free parking is an added bonus. It is an amazing venue for a wedding and I'd highly recommend this hotel to anyone. They won't be disappointed.

In February 2016 we decided to get married. We were looking for a venue that could offer us a weekend event all under the one roof, Civil Ceremony, Wedding Reception and day after celebrations. The moment we entered the Shearwater Hotel in Balinasloe, we knew this was our dream venue. It offered

Read More

us everything we were looking for and more which no other venue that we had visited could compare with.
We wanted our wedding to be personal, meaningful and a day that would create lasting memories that would be cherished for not only us but our guests too. The Shearwater did not disappoint, two months later, our guests are still complimenting on the wonderful day that they had and on the good service and hospitality that they received from all staff at the hotel.
We met Karyn Berrigan, our wedding co-ordinator, who offered us a wonderful wedding package for the entire week end. She provided us with a recommended wedding contacts list which we used and could not fault their services on the day. Karyn was amazing; a lifesaver considering our wedding date was September 17th. She was dedicated and went above and beyond her duties to ensure every detail was taken care of and making it stress free for us.
Our Wedding Weekend arrived; everything was excellent from start to finish. The hotel provided a complimentary suite with interconnecting room for the bridal party the night before the Big Day. Our wedding guests that stayed at the hotel were full of praise with the rooms they were provided and the standard of service they received. The Wedding Day itself was magical and relaxed. The food was delicious, quick and beautifully presented thanks to Des and his team. Our specially selected Scotch Broth went down a treat with all our guests thanks to the chef who spent the entire week testing recipes.
The dedication and hospitality of all the hotel staff was unsurpassed and we were totally satisfied that the Hotel lived up to our expectations.

I highly recommend everyone to have their wedding celebrations in the Shearwater Hotel.
We were originally supposed to have our wedding and reception in a different venue however 8 weeks before our wedding there was a fire which completely destroyed the original venue.

By chance we found Karyn

Read More

and the Shearwater Hotel. We explained what had happened and asked if the Shearwater was able to accommodate us, thankfully she told us that it would be no problem to have our wedding with Shearwater. We believe now that it was a blessing in disguise.

As you can imagine with only 8 weeks to the big day, everyone was under a huge amount of pressure, but where I saw the biggest difference and I can categorically say that working with Karan and the Shearwater team was like a breath of fresh air compared to dealing with the previous venue.

From Day one of planning with Karyn, no request was “too much” everything we wanted was “No problem” and to our surprise and delight Karyn took responsibility for anything she could do herself.

The term “You are only as good as the people behind you” come to mind. If there was one thing that our guest said to us after the wedding was how courteous, friendly and helpful the staff were for the entire weekend. It is such a relief knowing that our guest received the same high level of care and attention that we received ourselves.
The day went unbelievably smoothly, I believe it stands as great testament to the wealth of experience that Karyn, Dez (Assistant Manager) and the hotel staff have with running weddings. Which took the stress and pressure away from myself and my wife, it allowed us to sit back and enjoy our day with our family and friends.

If you are looking for a stress free wedding, with friendly, highly experienced staff, in a beautiful modern Hotel where the staff actually works with you and helps you as much as they can. Then I would highly recommend The Shearwater Hotel. I can guarantee you will not regret your choice.

The food was amazing, 5 star in my opinion, the hotel a wonderful venue such a big hotel in a small town, lots of parking and a massive reception area. I would reccomended this hotel to absolutely everybody everything was just absolutely perfect we didn't have to worry about a thing.

We were living out of the country in the build up to the big day but Karyn ensured we had nothing to worry about as she was easily contactable and able to answer any questions we had. The function room looked beautiful. The food was great - tasty and plenty of it. One thing that stood out on the day was the excellent service as the team of staff served dinner in a very organised and efficient way. The majority of our guests stayed for the weekend and they really enjoyed their stay in lovely rooms with good breakfasts. We would highly recommend the Shearwater hotel to anyone looking for a wedding venue as the experienced staff, good food and beautiful venue are of a very high standard.

We lost count of the amount of guests who commented on Karyn and Des' presence through out the day. The meal was also amazing and lived up to our expectations. We also availed of the dessert buffet which was a fantastic success. We loved the fact that it was different and so well organised.
Thank you all so much again, we look forward to visiting you soon to thank you in person,

11 out of 10, outstanding, surpassed anything we could have wished for, the day was perfect, people told us it was the best wedding they had been to. Des, who looked after us on the day was in a league of his own, a legend in his own right, thank ye all so much.

Can not speak highly enough about the Carlton shearwater Ballinasloe; we had a fabulous wedding day from start to finish.
From the moment we booked our wedding we found the staff so helpful and so accessible. The hotel is lovely; ours was a Halloween wedding & the decorations were just beautiful,

really tasteful. The food & drinks on arrival were lovely & plentiful (we were told , we didn't see it ourselves). The function room looked truly magical & the dinner was amazing, the afters food was also gorgeous. We had so little organising to do as the staff had everything taken care of, the whole day ran so smoothly.
The staff really do a wonderful job to ensure the bridal party can just sit back & enjoy it all.
I only wish I could do it all again!

Their experience with handling weddings was invaluable ensuring we hadn't overlooked anything. In short, we couldn't recommend them highly enough. If you have your reception at the Carlton Shearwater Hotel you are guaranteed a delicious meal, enjoyable, professional and stress-free day, This is exactly what you need on your special day. Thanks Again A&G xx

before we even booked them! In the run up to the wedding they were always available to give us any advice we needed and no stone was left unturned in preparation for the big day. On the day itself they treated us like royalty and the service provided on the day was unbelievable. The dining room was beautifully prepared and the food was outstanding. Several of our guests commented to us afterwards that they had never seen better service and never eaten better than they did that night. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience in the Carlton Shearwater and it made our perfect day even more special. All the staff in the hotel deserve the credit for this and they deserve every success in the future. Thanks a billion to all in the Carlton Shearwater, Ballinasloe.

they will do anything to please the bride, groom and their families, as we have a son we had the kiddies club for him and other children attending the wedding , you wouldn't have taught there was a child in the hotel at all, they were well entertained in the club. Also after attending several weddings there I could not fault the hotel or staff in any way only thank them for all their hard work on our wedding day , and making it extra special. The food is fantastic, as always, bridal suite and guest rooms spotless clean and beautiful. If u book ur wedding here , no doubt you will have a very memorable day :)

booked it on the spot..so we headed back to new york with our deposit paid and did not have to visit the hotel again till one week before the wedding,the event managers sinead and annette organized all for me it was like having a personal wedding organizer for the day,as we were away we could not be around for some of the decison making so it was left in their capable hands and im glad it was.the day of the wedding went off like a dream,jakub the manager was fantastic he greeted us at the door with champagne and we were treated like royalty after that,a few guests who had replied to say they could not make the meal turned up and jakub just fitted them in without anyone noticing,the meal was top class, piping hot and plenty of staff on hand..overall i would highly reccomend visiting the shearwater hotel to have your dream day in...thanks again for the brilliant memories pat and marie april 2012 x
