Top Hotels with Gyms in Islay

The village of Port Charlotte is far from the relatively bustling Bowmore, thereby making it a hotel destination for an ideal boutique experience. The proprietor Isabelle has a knack for the personalized experience, so your time in the hotel feels like a homecoming. The kitchen is fabulous, much better than perhaps necessary, and the atmosphere around the deep whisky bar is worth spending a few drams a night around. I couldn’t have hoped for a finer Islay lodging.

The hotel is just across from the airport. I like how the owner and his wife make the room especially cozy, and the breakfast fruit is plentiful to surprise. Just order dinner in advance, otherwise there is nothing to eat. Anyway, you want to rent a car to live in this city. It takes half an hour to drive wherever you go. It is quiet and clean if you are on vacation.
