Bayview, Quay Street, Portree

Bayview is an absolutely delightful property here on the Quayside in Portree.
Designed with comfort in mind.
A high end, 2 bedroom property recently refurbished to a high standard.
1X Superking bed and 1 x Kingsize bed. Both ensuite.
Views to die for. In the heart of Portree. A fully functioning kitchen and room to relax in the middle of the Isle Of Skye's Capital.
Look no further. Honestly I am stuck for words. See for yourself.

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.

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!!

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 place great location
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!

Great location and property as advertised
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.

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!

Portree Visit from the States
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.

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.

Beautiful location and property...but significant issues
This apartment is stunning and so smartly fitted, but we specifically booked a property with two ensuite bathrooms and one of them was non-functioning for the duration of our stay. A plumber appeared to have come, but the issue was not resolved and in fact, the bathroom was left in a worse state than when we arrived. We received no communication, or response to messages. This was such a disappointment because the location on the iconic pier and easy, walkable access to Portree's shops and restaurants was ideal. I expect this was a exception to an otherwise ideal holiday let for visitors, but sadly, our experience was not what it could or should have been.

Trip to Skye
Comfortable accommodations close to everything but expected more for the price. Dishwasher had "out of order" signed taped to it. Had issues with showers in both bathrooms. Smaller bath shower drain was clogged, water overflowed onto floor. When toilet was flushed, water would gush up from shower drain. Larger bath shower spray would drench surrounding floor & walls. Neither shower layout was practical. No towel warmer in larger bathroom. Power was off in portions of the unit the morning of check out. Some lights & switches wouldn't work.

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
