Guests say
Island SeaView Villa is highly praised for its spaciousness, entertainment options, and stunning views. Guests consistently enjoy the games room, swimming pool, and sauna, making it ideal for large groups and family gatherings. The local area is appreciated for its beauty and friendly community.
Guests are generally satisfied with the cleanliness, particularly noting the pristine beds and availability of towels and robes. However, one mention of the kitchen not being clean upon arrival slightly lowers the score.
There is not enough information to accurately score the location as reviews do not provide specific details about the property's surroundings or accessibility.
The comfort of the villa is frequently highlighted, with guests finding the beds clean and comfortable, and the house spacious enough for large groups to enjoy their stay.
The villa's facilities are a standout feature, with a well-equipped games room, large hot tub, and sauna. The maintenance response to a plumbing issue was prompt and efficient, indicating good upkeep.
While guests express gratitude for the amenities provided, there is no mention of gifts, and therefore it cannot be determined if thoughtfulness in the form of gifts is a consistent practice.

We had a fantastic stay at Sea View Villa. The house is a great size (there was 11 of us) plenty of fun socialising in all the areas. The Games/leisure room was great hit with kids and the adults, swimming, sauna, playing pool and table tennis! The cleanliness was rated a bit lower as the kitchen was not clean for our arrival, although it was very well equipped. The beds were all very clean comfortable and plenty of fluffy blankets to snuggle up for movie night. We all had access to clean robes, slippers and there was plenty of towels for everyone. We would definitely return for another stay. Thank you!

We had a fantastic break with our extended family at this beautiful house. It is so well equipped and offers something for everyone from table tennis and the large hot tub to board games and pool! We were a group of 9 adults and I baby and we had lots of space to enjoy our break. The owner Carol was so accommodating. The island of Bute is beautiful with lovely eateries and the local people are so friendly and welcoming. We will be back!
