Emily, Ava and Amy were wonderful. Their smiles and cheerfulness brightened our stay. We dined in the restaurant for both breakfast and dinner each day. The food and service were amazing! We were a bit confused when arriving about where to check in and went to the bar. The nice gentleman in the bar helped us find our way. Staying here was a wonderful experience and a lovely part of our vacation. We hope to stay there again.
Amazing property and the view is breath taking! We had a family suite and it was cozy large and clean! Right on the water in a small bay! You could not ask for anything better!
We absolutely loved staying at Eilean Iarmain. The property is gorgeous with truly the most beautiful views. It is peaceful and away from distractions, one can just come and stay here without going anywhere else and still feel the beauty of the Isle of Skye. The area has wonderful restaurants but our favorite meals were here so I would suggest just having your dinners here after a long day of driving about the Isle. There is the coziest of pubs here with the same great food and drinks- it's very popular so get there earlier than later. the boutiques next door were also beautiful and we bought some beautiful Scottish coat and scarfs here. We had a family suite ( upstairs and down) and the views from every window was gorgeous! last ut not least, the service was so wonderful, everyone we met was so nice. I dream about this place and hope to return some day.
I am so glad we found this place. It was exactly as portrayed: an historic (and idiosyncratic) small inn/hotel; not fancy, very straightforward; on the water in a wonderful location; a great kitchen punching way above its weight. But the best part was its staff. Warm, genuine. I felt cared about by every staff member I interacted with. Kudos.
Beautiful secluded property with a fantastic view! We loved our stay here. Staff was always pleasant and helpful. Would definitely return!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We arrived very late - our room types were standard double, but we clearly had the ones no one else wanted. I will preface that the location was amazing, the staff great with their communication and the beds comfortable. But it was old, the carpet was dirty and the bathroom was tiny. It was not worth the money for a room of the standard we given. The breakfast was ok, the bacon burned and the coffee machine wasn’t on, I was told they couldn’t flick the switch and turn it on. If it wasn’t over $300 a night - then this would be something to overlook. But at over $300, they need to step it up a little.
