Portmarnock Resort & Jameson Golf Links has announced the launch of "Meet by the coast," a new set of customizable corporate event packages designed for groups seeking flexible gathering options, coastal activities, and meeting venues. The offering arrives as the property, recognized as Dublin's only coastal resort, marks its 30th anniversary in 2026.

The packages operate via a customizable "pick and mix" menu format, giving corporate clients the ability to tailor itineraries around team-building, meetings, dining, golf, and regional excursions.

Property Heritage and On-Site Amenities

While celebrating 30 years as a resort, the property’s historical roots date back to the 1850s, when it served as the home of the Jameson whiskey family. The family built the original residence alongside an adjacent golf course. Contemporary elements at the property continue to highlight this background, including the Jameson Bar.

The modern grounds border Velvet Strand beach. On-site facilities feature the Jameson Golf Links—built on the same site as the original 19th-century Jameson course—as well as recently renovated meeting spaces fitted with new audiovisual equipment.

The resort accommodates events for up to 300 delegates, offers 134 guest rooms, and includes parking space for cars and coaches. It is located 15 minutes from Dublin International Airport, which services 190 international destinations.

On-Site and Regional Activity Menu

Clients choosing the "Meet by the coast" menu can select from on-site options or off-site local activities:

• Resort-Based Offerings: Golf clinics or "beat the pro" sessions with Brendan Walton, seaweed baths and coastal spa treatments, beach activities, sea swims, and external team-building programs.
• On-Site Dining: Group dining across various spaces, including outdoor barbecues in the Secret Garden and private hire of Síbín, a traditional Irish pub where guests can pour their own pints.
• Excursions: Visits to Lambay Island—the largest privately owned island in North-West Europe, inhabited by seals, birds, fallow deer, and a wild population of over 100 wallabies.Additional outings include trips to Malahide Castle, New Grange, the Wicklow Mountains, boat trips, and Dublin excursions to Trinity College, Temple Bar, and the Jameson distillery.

Day delegate options are also available for short meetings, with optional coastal sea swims included.

Executive Statements

William Kirby, General Manager at Portmarnock Resort & Jameson Golf Links, addressed the strategic purpose behind the package launch:

"With the resort’s spectacular setting and extensive grounds, we offer something many other providers can’t. Whether businesses are focused on high-impact meetings, leadership retreats, conferences, team-building or incentive programmes, what could be better than to ‘Meet by the coast’? With our unique amenities and the potential combination of activities available, from secret garden barbecues to wallaby watching, our aim is to create events which people never forget."
