Each day present a wealth of wonder and enjoyment which perfected our visit. The setting, staff, rooms and Shona excellent cooking almost persuaded us to spend our holiday at the hotel. Hot cup of tea and wickedly delicious chocolate cake ended a memorable walk across the beach to the cairns on the bay. Rivals many of Australia beautiful beachs, waking... More

My wife and I celebrated our ruby wedding anniversary at the Isle of Barra Beach Hotel - a return trip as we had stayed there on the occasion of our silver wedding fifteen years previously. It could not have been a better choice - we enjoyed the first occasion immensly but the hotel had improved since our last stay, and... More

Location, location, location!!! What a beautiful situation for a hotel, and the lounge and dining room take full advantage of the magnificent view. The beach theme in the decor is fun and appropriate while the lounge, with an abundant supply of comfy and stylish seating plus free internet access, has a happy and wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. We were lucky with... More

The hotel and the views were fantastic. The hotel was very clean and tidy and all of the staff apart from one member were very helpful and friendly. There was a waiter that ruined our stay he was rude unhelpful and seemed to hang around when he was not wanted just for his tip. Would recommend to all if he... More

Could do with a suspended Swedish fireplace as a centrepiece. but there is a Blofeld white leather... More

I note in some reviews comments on the brick interior of the building....... This is a seventies build and at that time state of the art! The present... More

Stayed here early May for two nights as part of our 2 week holiday in the islands. Things got off to a bit of a bad start when on arrival we expressed our wish to eat a bar meal that night rather than a restaurant one - this was purely because we had spent the past few evenings in a... More

Our trip to the Western Isles finally materialised. first stop Barra. The Barra Beach Hotel was all and more than we had hoped for. The four generations af the family who run the hotel have managed to combine a very personal welcome with a beautiful, modern, well maintained, first class standard hotel. The setting is unparalleled. To sit in the... More

We stayed here for two nights. The hotel is slightly quirky the walls are painted breeze block but the rooms are very comfortable and warm. We ate in the restaurant on the first night, the food was very good, can thoroughly recommend the scallops, and the views were wonderful. The restaurant is not cheap and we were a little surprised...
