Can’t say enough nice things about the apartment and the owners. Convenient to everything we wanted to see and getting around choices are abundant. There is a car hire service close by (our choice) but there is also local bus service as well as a taxi service that has tours. Plus Citibus has a stop there. As far as the owners, we lost our keys and after a quick call and a few pints at a local pub, they met us with a new key.That is first class. We couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else

Wow! Located right on the peer overlooking the bay in Portree. This VRBO property is top notch. It was easy to access, directions all provided via email ahead of time. We had a LOVELY stay. Highly recommend. I’d definitely stay at one of these properties again in Scotland. We had luxury and absolutely the best views.

Wish we could have staid longer! Couldn't have chosen a nicer place to stay while we were there. I missed the email with check in details, but was easily able to get in touch with someone on the phone and get access right away. We were also given an extra hour to check out without any hassle. I hope this space is available on my next visit. Rebooking will be a no brainer!

Lovely updated apartment in a prine location for exploring Portree. Don’t be concerned about parking. We never had an issue and the property does has an alternate arrangement with a local church if you cannot find street parking. The takeaway Fish & Chips place down the street was the best we had in Scotland. Amazing chips!!

This is the perfect place to stay in Portree. The place is clean, modern, and spacious and it looks out over the harbor for a fantastic view. We always found a spot on the street to park but the church parking lot is very close if necessary. Really, the place is perfect. We loved every minute of our stay.

Wonderful stay in Portree
Our family had a wonderful stay in this Portree home in June. Location was fantastic and we were able to find parking even though it is a busy area. The weather was unseasonably warm and the management team was kind enough to provide fans on request. Thank you for your hospitality!

Beautiful property
This flat on the harbor of Portree is as beautiful as it appears in the pictures. Spotlessly clean and perfectly appointed. We did have some issues though in communicating with the management team first before checkin getting our final payment confirmed and later with no television. We were there 4 days when it was raining all the time and not having tv in the evenings was a real minus. Also the problems a previous review had sited on the second bathroom may not have been resolved. My daughter had a terrible time trying to use the shower which consistently flooded the entire floor. Parking was fortunately never an issue in the rain as we were always able to find a spot open out front.

Lovely place
This place is a beautiful spot smack in the middle of a very busy little town. Perfect for two adult couples. We were lucky and found parking on the busy pier each day. We were surprised by how busy, crowded and touristy Portree is (September) Between the cars, tours buses, cruise ships and foot traffic, we were a little overwhelmed yet I will say the apartment was a quiet oasis. Every single restaurant was full our first night, with lines out the door. We got smart and made dinner reservations for future nights. There are nearby grocery stores and the kitchen is great and nicely equipped if you prefer to cook in. Of note: one of the bathroom showers has only two walls, we couldn't figure out how to keep the water from flooding the floor a bit. Luckily, there was a combo washer/dryer unit in the apartment and we could dry the towels we used to sop up the water.

Loved the location. Spacious unit with modern feel to it. Parking can be tough, but we were able to find parking each day on the dock and didn't need the church parking. We were there in August and the area was very busy.

Really nice apartment. Well appointed and in the middle of town. Parking options at local church was brilliant as the quay side was a busy place. Hardest part was getting meals — staffing issues make it tough for restaurants. Reservations were for hotel guests only or a couple of weeks in advance. Kitchen was well equipped and take-away fish and chips right up the road.

We were so happy with our stay here. It was very clean, comfortable beds and great location. So easy for check in and check out which is always wonderful. Had a washer and dryer combo and we’re glad to be able to do a load of laundry. Would recommend to anyone staying in Portree. Also Sea Breezes is a fantastic restaurant to doors down, which is an added plus!

Headline Spacious apartment in perfect location with lovely proprietors, but serious issues with heat and hot water caused illness Review content While it was a bit challenging to find this apartment, we were pleased when we finally were able to get it. Cat was very helpful at virtually guiding us to the right door and lockbox. However, we entered into a beautiful apartment at night with no heat and it was about 32 degrees Fahrenheit and raining outside. Cat was sweet and came right over to help us, but unfortunately she didn’t know how to turn it on and we ended up having to sleep the night in the freezing cold. Cat did bring space heaters for us which helped, but my daughter got sick with a cough and cold due to the severe cold temperatures. Someone came the next day and fixed the heat, but that morning, the hot water wasn’t working anywhere in the house. We had to leave without showers (and my daughter feeling ill) and someone came during the day and fixed the hot water. When we arrived back home that afternoon, sweet Cat had left us a sorry note and some gifts to express her remorse for the situation. While we think the world of cat and the quick response to our issues, for the price we were paying, the home should have been heated before we arrived and the proprietor/helper should be more knowledgeable about the property. We are grateful for the kindness, but my daughter is very sick now and we spent an evening freezing and a morning without hot water which is really un

Great, Luxurious Flat At The Harbor
My family really liked the luxurious feel of this flat right on the harbor. Parking was a little bit of a challenge, but the flat itself was marvelous and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was great, and it was a short walk to a grocery, several restaurants, and shopping. Highly recommend this flat if you are staying in Portree!

The apartment is well-equipped and nicely furnished, and the location is very good. The check-in process was clearly detailed, and Ben replied quickly to the one question we had. The parking arrangement with the church is nice, as the pier can get crowded. It’s just a short walk to the apartment.

My only complaint is the master bedroom shower, while beautiful, get water all over the floor, no matter how careful one is. There are many instruction books for the appliances, but I didn’t see one for the washer/dryer. We would stay here agai in a heartbeat.

Beautiful Place on the Water
I cannot say enough about this place. It is beautifully put together inside with amazing views out every window. Every place in town is walkable, with some restaurants on the same block. Parking is a little awkward, but not difficult. Space on the pier was hard to find (we had to stop outside and unload bags at first), but it is easy to find a spot within a block of the harbour or plenty of space at the arranged car park (make sure you grab the parking pass from inside first). It was perfect for our family of 4 and we plan to come back again.
