With a 7 yr old boy and a 10 yr old boy. Swimming pool was warm and fun. Went to to sports hall for football and badminton. Next day went cycling. We had a little dog with us and it was no problem. All of Aviemore is dog friendly. Lovely time.

Apartment allocated on arrival in disrepair. Trying to get this sorted out was extremely stressful and we spent 2 hrs trying talking to both MacDonald Resort staff and Hotels.com neither were taking ownership of sorting it out. Hotels.com solution was refund ! So we had travelled to Aviemore what did the expect us to do next !! Resort staff wanted us offered the only one apartment they said available if a lower standard than booked. There answer was to contact the third oarty we booked through - not very helpful ! Also advised on arrival that leisure facilities at site were closed.

Another good stay at this resort, this time in a one bedroom Alvie unit. Everything great apart from the bed being double not king. Enjoyed the golf on the doorstep but didn’t use many other facilities this visit.

Excellent resort to stay with kids and dog. The accommodation is a great size, beds are comfy and the resort is clean. The resort itself is dated but the location and the size of the apartments make it worrhwhile. Kids loved the badminton and tennis. Pool is great for kids too We will definitely be back again

This centre had everything we needed. Our unit was spacious and cosy. We were so grateful to be able to check-in very early because of the storm. Our granddaughters had great fun in the pool which was very child friendly with lots of inflatable toys for them. It’s a great location to explore Aviemore and the Cairngorms.
