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

Alex, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.

Yvonne, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved the villa, 3 negatives, the villa could do with some vacuuming, dog hair everywhere, there’s not enough cooking pot and pans( a small frying pan and small pot) and check in at 5pm(too late!).

Short break at MacDonald Spey Valley resort

A very comfortable and enjoyable stay. The apartment was excellent, clean, spacious and lovely surrounding views.

10/10 Excellent

We were so impressed with the quality of the accommodations and how friendly and helpful the staff was. Our chalet was spacious and beautiful, and impeccably clean - I absolutely recommend!
Karen, 2-night trip

2 night stay

Stayed in the 3 bedroom apartment, no 14 for 2 nights with family. Supplied with everything you need for washing dishes. Pool was good, you dont have to reserve a time and they supplied towels. Would stay there again
JULIE, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

It was a great experience. Thoroughly enjoyable. Location, facilities, proximity to Aviemore town centre. Chalet is a bit tired looking internally. It was clean but someone needs to look up and remove cobwebs and dust on light fittings etc. Kitchen really well stocked.
3-night trip

8/10 Good

Tired and tatty, but nothing bad

A poor start when they failed to answer any of my emails, but my call was answered. The lodges, especially on the outside, were tired and a bit tatty, but everything was clean and functional. Beds were good and pillows were great. Very well equipped for self-catering and everything we needed for a family of four. The only irritation was that they allow pets and there was evidence of animal hair on decorative bed throws and cusions, but not enough to bother us. Parking was right beside lodge and it was a short walk of 200 - 300 metres to the clubhouse pool. The 'resort' was quiet and always felt safe. A good location for visiting Landmark and other attractions in Avimore. The additional space and extra bedroom meant we were very much more comfrtable than staying in a hotel. There are sever shops and food outles a short walk away, however, the other bars and restaurants are a 25-30 minute walk or 5 minute drive. We'd definitely stay again.
Ken, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Had a great stay with my family in one of the cabins. A nice location just a short walk from the main area of Aviemore and a variety of good trails for walking/cycling/running. The cabin had all the facilities I needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

10/10 Excellent

Everything great. Beautiful location. Nature in the doorstep - like deer walking past as you’re eating your Cheerios. Map location from Expedia are a bit off.

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights with our 3 children (4 and 7 years and 1 baby 6 months). We rented a small cottage The cleanliness could be better, but is okay
