The Montenotte Hotel launches the Coastal Escape Package, a luxury adventure with Ocean Escapes
The Montenotte Hotel, one of Ireland’s leading hotels, has partnered with Cork-based water tour-operator Ocean Escapes to treat guests to a thrilling new adventure experience this summer. Guests of The Montenotte will be able to pair a two-night stay with an excursion upon the high-seas on one of Ocean Escape’s state-of-the-art RIBS along the picturesque Irish coastline from Cork Harbour, stopping off at a number of idyllic seaside towns and indulging in a delicious picnic, curated by Executive Chef, Rudi Liebenberg.
This new package, available to book from the May 10th 2023, invites guests to enjoy a new way of exploring Cork, and the nearby coastline. During the day, guests will step aboard a Private RIB Charter from the historic town of Cobh, famously known as the last stop for the RMS Titanic. From there, guests will speed off for a ninety-minute escapade around the picturesque harbour, and out to sea to witness the awe-inspiring views of the Irish coastline and spot the native wildlife – including seals, dolphins, gannets and basking sharks. Along the way, Ocean Escapes will stop to allow guests to explore the charming Irish seaside town of Crosshaven, along with a view of the legendary Spike Island – famous for once being a monastic settlement and formed in a unique star-shape – where guests can experience the luxury of a prime vantage point from their immaculate Private Charter.
Based in Cork, Ocean Escapes are the market-leading experts in Private Charter trips around the most scenic locations in Ireland and specialising in providing once-in-a-lifetime experiences where couples, groups of friends and families can experience Cork like never before. The Montenotte’s Coastal Escape package is ideal for a truly memorable urban escape or a special occasion – where celebrations or extravagant engagement proposals can be done in style with this unique sea adventure. To add to the VIP experience, the two-night package includes a carefully curated picnic hamper, including a bottle of Laurent-Perrier Champagne. After the expedition, guests can indulge in a delicious three-course meal at the hotel’s award-winning Panorama Restaurant, helmed by Executive Chef Rudi Liebenberg. Guests can then choose to unwind with a movie at the hotel’s in-house private Cameo Cinema, make use of The Motion Health Club’s facilities and the award-winning Bellevue Spa – which has recently partnered with renowned Australian skincare brand Grown Alchemist – or simply relax with a cocktail at The Montenotte’s vibrant rooftop bar, The Glasshouse.
Andrew O Riordan, Owner of Ocean Escapes, says: “We are incredibly excited to partner with The Montenotte Hotel, and bring their guests a thrilling way of experiencing Cork and its surrounding coastline. We feel this is the perfect opportunity to bring a splash of adventure to the luxury hotel experience here in Cork and very much look forward to welcoming guests soon.”

This is truly a unique and memorable partnership that is perfect for the summer season – we have no doubt that our guests will enjoy it.”
