Top Big Sand Beach Hotel Reviews
Wow sea-view! walks, cliffs, wildlife - spacious contemporary home
10/10 Excellent
"What an absolutely wonderful stay! Everything was perfect from start to finish. The home was beautiful, clean, comfortable and situated in the most gorgeous location. It was such a peaceful and lovely place to come back to after spending our days exploring the magic of the Isle of Skye. Louisa and Chris were fantastic hosts with clear, friendly, and quick communication throughout our stay. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and feel so lucky to have spent part of our Scotland adventure here. We would absolutely stay again and cannot recommend this beautiful place enough! Thank you Louisa and Chris for such a memorable stay!"
Solas Alainn Chalet - a detached house that sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom
10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful one week stay at Solas Alainn! The chalet is more spacious in person than the photos depict, but is ideal for 2 people. It was bright, clean, and fully equipped with everything we needed, including a washer/dryer. The kitchen had plenty of storage for food and the full stove was great for cooking. Every single window has the most incredible views. Storm Beolo rolled in during our stay which was quite the experience! Mark and Charlyn were excellent and attentive hosts, going above and beyond. The location of the chalet is perfect for seeing many of the popular sights without feeling like you’re in a touristy area. The Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock, An Corran, and Quiraing are all less than 15 minute drive (and a short walk to the beach). Portree is a little under 30 minutes drive. There are two little stores and the Hungry Gull within walking distance as well. It was about a 45 minute drive to Uig (go to lunch at the Stein Inn!) and 1:15 to west coast villages. Every drive is through beautiful scenery, so you hardly feel the time pass. Don’t hesitate to book this special place, you will not be disappointed."
Gairloch Hotel
8/10 Good
"Plus: Arrivée très bien, réceptionniste polie et courtois. Chambre très propre et confortable. Salle a manger personnel très serviable et attentionné. Moins: repas très moyen. Départ: En sortant de l’ascenseur lors de mon départ, je croise la réceptionniste (blonde) qui venait de laisser la réception a quelques mètres de la. Elle ne me dit pas bonjour..rien. Nous étions les deux seuls dans le lobby!!! Normalement, elle aurait du retourner au comptoir pour me recevoir et prendre mes clés et me facturer mon repas de la veille.(Hébergement déjà payé sur Expedia). Et me demander si j’avais passé un bon séjour. Mais non, elle me dévisage et poursuit son chemin sans m’adresser la parole. J’ai donc laissé mes clés sur le comptoir, ai attendu 3 minutes et j’ai quitté. Dans le même après-midi, je reçois un courriel très bête me disant, « you left this morning without paying »!!! Ce a quoi j’ai rapidement corrigé les faits en disant que l’a réceptionniste m’a croisé et ne m’a pas adressé la parole, et bêtement poursuivis son chemin vers je ne sais où. Que j’avais attendu mais qu’après 3 minutes, j’avais laissé mes clés et quitté car ferry a attraper. Pour me faire répondre qu’elle « était probablement occupé avec un autre client ». Alors je crois que vous comprenez bien que le client dans cet hôtel, n’est pas traité comme il se doit. Dommage car la propreté et la chambre était très bien. Pour cette raison, je ne recommande pas cet hôtel."
