The property is beautiful and the staff are very kind. Had great recommendations from the bartender (Carson?) and really enjoyed the sauna and a walk to the beach.
the property did welcome pets however the room we were given was below standard ,the window leaked badly from the storm Amy and the noise coming from it was horrendous. thankfully reception managed to put us in a suitable room, the staff on reception were excellent .the golf course was excellent but very disappointed that there was no drying room after a severe soaking from the inclement weather i would have thought that such a prestigious course as the Machrie would have suitable drying facilities the meals were excellent.
Such a beautiful hotel and staff were always approachable and pleasant. Hotel very clean and tidy.
Loved the board with all the activities and information about the island at reception, great idea.
I found the restaurant very expensive, also we were unable to get 2 different cocktails of the menu during the 3 days we were there, because they had no pineapple juice and also no rosé wine which was disappointing.
Absolutely gorgeous spot to stay and felt so private. The food was top notch as was the staff. And the balcony of the restaurant was perfect to watch the sunset over the bay each night. Im not a golfer but the beautiful course makes me want to learn to play.
Thanks,
Shane Hoskins
This was not an inexpensive stay for us, but we certainly got what we paid for. The food and facilities were first rate and though we're not golfers we enjoyed walking along the course and out along the shore
Amazing site and devoted, ultra courteous and welcoming personnel. Great stay and restaurant ambiance, service and food offer was excellent.
View is just amazing.
Did nit have the occasion to play golf.
Stay was Wonderfull. Getting to the facility and into town is a challenge as taxi’s are inconsistent.
The Golf is wonderful, golf staff could have been more helpful as we nearly ran out of golf balls (wish they had encouraged us to purchase extra as we were renting) the course is very challenging and absolutely breathtaking with beauty. I would absolutely return for another trip.
