The app is very easy use and costs are all up front and transparent.
I did forget to use my €100 credit when booking recently. However, this was remedied by the team (although I was in a chat queue for 2.5 hours)

Don't like they have to check if available after you pay for your holiday. Booking process is good. Price was good.

Please add a live seat-selection feature during the holiday booking process, similar to Loveholidays. As disabled travelers, we require extra legroom seats. Currently, we must open a dummy booking, check the airline's site for seat availability, return to your site to book the holiday, and then log into the airline to buy the seats. This multi-step process is a major accessibility barrier. Booking flights and seats together would fix this pain point.

Our first and last stop(Onthebeach.ie) whenever we think of our holiday. Good deals always 🤝🙂

HI have subsequently found out I have paid approximately 1000 euro more for my holiday with no transfers or hold luggage included so I will be shopping around in future.

Flights,hotel bookings all went well.Price very reasonable. Have booked prior holidays with you and will continue to book future holidays.

Reply from On the Beach
The process of booking was well done and the choice of hotels was good. Te hotel eas good except for the first night when they put us in a tiny room with a very large concrete pillar in the room, bedside the bed. They changed the room the next day when we complained. The food was good. The staff were very nice and professional. We would use OTB Again.

I see there is a 100euro to book with you for the first time, and I did not get that when I booked ref MYB15178422B

Holiday was fine.
Its your company that needs improving.
On site holiday rep maybe? How about a telephone for customers to call. Do you think a 4 hour wait for your online chat is acceptable. How about returning holiday deposits to peoples accounts when they cancel holidays. I had to give a bad review just for my refund to be sent back.

I have booked with onthebeach.ie previously. The booking process is straightforward and everything seems positive. Until! I received an email from Ryan Air advising my return flight in November has been brought forward by 2 days. I contacted OTB on 2nd May via live chat which isn't actually live but a BOT. I received no response until 1st June from a no reply email address, with a subject line "Urgent" advising me to review the email received from the airline and let OTB know immediately via the OTB Portal so that they can update the accommodation reservation. The only option to let them know is via Live Chat which you keep going around in circles. When I advised "Sunny" the BOT that I wished to make a complaint I was then advised Live chat was closed even though this was before 18:30 as indicated on the website. I tried again this morning and the wait time was 1-3 hours to speak to a person. I have just tried again now and the wait time is 3-5 Hours. It is appalling for any Company to think that any Customer seeking assistance should have to sit in a chat queue for 3-5 Hours, there is no excuse for this, none whatsoever. My previous chat timed out in any case. So here is my booking Reference:MYB14930813B and I trust that somebody at some point will contact me to confirm that you have updated my accommodation to reflect the new flight schedule and any difference in monies for two nights accommodation will be reflected. I should not have to resort to leaving a negative review to gain assistance, however after a month waiting for a response, to then be left with no realistic support from OTB via the website other than to sit in a chat queue for up to 5 hours. I wait in hope for some meaningful contact.

How easy it was 2 filter the holiday you wanted and how easy it was to book.

I booked a holiday through on the beach for our silver wedding anniversary. Ryanair changed the flights, I found new ones and wanted to transfer the details. On the beach has no customer service at all only "Sunny" the chat bot who does not work. You just go round in circles. I will not book a holiday through this company again. It's a shame because I have used them many times in the past but this experience has been appalling and we haven't even finished paying!

Great holiday in Aria Claros Beach Resort Hotel in Izmir, Turkey. Aqua park was amazing for kids with allot of slides and right beside kids club and main aqua park. Beach is right beside pools so easy to go back and forth between all. We'll worth staying here and extra thanks to animation team, September & Jasmin, whom were great

Terrible experience which is causing me so much stress!
I understand your online chat only however you cannot speak to a human, you just go round in circles with a bot! My flights been changed, airport has been changed and times have been changed, I need my transfers airport parking airport lounge all changing to suit, I contacted a month ago with multiple attempts to contact again, I travel next week and have no heard anything! I have never used you before as used the bigger company’s before and now know why! Never been so stressed going on holiday!!
I see you reply to certain people mainly good reviews but can someone contact me please 07565757660

I found booking my usual October school break holiday extremely easy and I received an email instructing me to go to the Ryanair air website and a second email confirming my reservation. It was also a really competitive price👏.

We had our family holiday to Turkey booked since January, we were due to fly out in under two weeks on the 13th of June. They informed us a little while back that the flights from Cork City had been pulled so we were being flown from Dublin airport instead. We contacted the chat team last week as our return home flight still hadn't changed and we were assured not to worry that our outbound flight and hotel are still booked. We got an email today to say the whole holiday was cancelled and we'll have to wait 7 days for a refund. This gives us under a week to try and book another family holiday as we're tied to those dates. With such a short space of time to rebook all holiday prices have increased. We could of easily booked our own flights home as they were and are still available. I checked on the beach website earlier and they are selling our exact same holiday from Dublin for €1300 extra after they telling us they couldn't organise alternative flights home for us. Someone is lying. Months of planning down the drain and possibility of not finding a suitable holiday due to the refund situation, time restraints and poor planning by on the beach. Totally unacceptable in this day in age when the exact same holiday is on the site for sale. Zero Stars!!!!!!

Impossible to speak to a human after our inbound flight was cancelled by the airline (not onthebeach’s fault) 6 days before outbound flight. No idea what next steps are
