Tip from Content Creator

Next to Edinburgh, Skye was my favorite part of my two weeks in Scotland. It was so wild, rugged, and absolutely gorgeous. If you’re planning a trip here, I would highly recommend staying at least three days. And before you book an Airbnb on this beautiful island, check out the 14 things to do here for an unforgettable experience:

- Swim in the Fairy Pools

- Hike The Old Man of Storr

- Stop for lunch in Portree

- See Neist Point Lighthouse

- Explore Dunvegan Castle & Gardens

- Spot fairies at The Fairy Glen

- Enjoy the quiet of Uig

- Take a ferry to the Outer Hebrides

- Hike the Quiraing

- Plan a day trip to Eilean Donan Castle

- Visit Kilt Rock and Mealtfalls

- Have a drink at Talisker Distillery

- Simply go for a scenic drive

- Find dinosaur footprints near Staffin

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 07, 2024.

21. Spacious double room with own access and bathroom (from USD 53)

Some vacation rentals are best suited for one or two people who only need a certain amount of space and a quiet area to stay in.

Tea and coffee are available in the house so that you can start the day with the energy needed for a fun time, and visitors will have their own entrance at the back of the property. Portree Village is only a 10-minute walk away, which lets you get a little exercise before you enjoy the best that the town’s restaurants and bars have to offer.

37. A gorgeous two story house

A little bit on the pricey side, this Airbnb vacation rental is an old looking two-story stone house near the beach and features one of the best sunset views on the isle. Though the house has an old-world charm on the outside, you’ll find its inside, full of modern appliances and contemporary Scottish furnishing. It has four bedrooms that can accommodate up to eight guests, perfect for a large group, looking for some quiet time with nature. It is also complete with a functional kitchen, where you can cook anything you want, a dining set-up, a cozy sitting area with an indoor fireplace, and a private bathroom with bathtub.
