Guest Reviews
- Colin (9/5): -
- SaraP79 (9/5): Nice cosy place to stay - -Clean has everything you neex
-Location is great
-Comfortable and easy to find
-Parking area
- Guest (9/5): We had a lovely time and would not hesitate to stay there again. - Carlo was very responsive and a pleasure to meet. Water pressure in the shower was lacking, but that's seems fairly common in the UK.
- Guest (8/5): Very available and accomodating host the sofa wasn't.a big issue. - Breakfast from local bakery even for the dog!! Because it's a dog friendly flat I understand that it probably gets a lot of wear and tear, however perhaps the sofa could do with being replaced or recovered, just a bit tired.
- Lynda (8/5): Another great stay at Varis apartments - Spacious and well equipped apartment
Specific parking spot Nothing
- Bärbel (6/5): - Wir sind nicht anspruchsvoll, von daher für uns absolut okay. Schön geräumig, tolle Lage. Leider bisschen in die Jahre gekommen. Sofa schon arg durchgesessen. Ein größerer Spiegel im Bad oder auf dem Flur wäre schön.
- Denis (8/5): We have been visiting Forres for many years - it is a lovely area. - Location was great. It was very quiet and Carlo was easy to contact quickly.
- Jekaterina (7/5): - Es un piso muy amplio y tiene parking. Buena ubicación. Le falta mantenimiento. El sistema de pago es en persona y hay que quedar con el propietario para hacer el pago.
- John (10/5): -
- christine (10/5): Stayed for Highland Games. So much to see in the area. - Location well equipped flat Well equipped
- Jane (10/5): A very relaxing stay. - Excellent location in the centre of the town. The property has a fully equipped kitchen so you can cook and didn’t have to spend so much money on eating out/takeaways. Cosy comfy sofa!
- John (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kevin (8/5): Recommended. - Location close to all local amenities and shops.
Facilities excellent for a standard short town stay.
- Sheila (7/5): Large bright apartment but...... - Lovely bright apartment with plenty of space The apartment is a little bit tired and would benefit from a general freshen up. We were charged extra due to us having a dog but found the sofa was full of dust so probably hadn't been cleaned in a while. Our dog also retrieved an old pet toy from under the bed which was a bit disconcerting. It may be that this apartment is kept for pet owners but to be charged extra and then to feel as if the apartment has not been cleaned to a reasonable standard is disappointing
- Jim (10/5): Excellent stay in Forres - The apartment was ideal for us. It is right in the town centre, just a short distance back from the street, but it was nice and quiet so we had a nice peaceful stay. Supermarket, chip shop, Indian restaurant and community cafe are just a couple of minutes walk.
The apartment was well equipped and clean with everything you could need. Plenty of parking room in designated private area. I could have done with instructions for the oven, as o managed to burn the bread but that's probably just me :)
- Carol (8/5): Ideal location for touring the area. The property had everything we needed. - Ideal location as base for touring the area. Parking close by, as were shops. Property had everything we needed for our short stay and was comfortable, clean and well maintained.
- Glenda (9/5): Excellent location with free parking. Clean & comfortable with clear communication. - Excellent location to local amenities, clean & comfortable facilities
- Peter (8/5): Excellent location, good communication with owner, comfortable and secure - Fantastic location. Very comfortable Couches were a bit tired

- Roland (10/5): Exceptional - Everything Nothing
- Maureen (8/5): Very good -
- Doreen (8/5): Very good - Great location. It was spacious & comfortable. We were met by property owner Carlo he was very friendly & helpful Nothing
- Jane (10/5): A cosy, spacious apartment, home from home. - The property was clean, well kept and spacious. It was cosy when we stepped inside and everything we needed was present. Nothing
- Joshua (10/5): Short stay in fotres - Really well priced, clean place
- Carey (10/5): - Very well appointed and spacious apartment with everything we needed for cooking and catching up on some washing. Property manager was informative and helpful loved our stay here!
- Miranda (6/5): - Het was een mooi ruim appartement, alleen alles erin was niet altijd in super staat. Alles werkt, maar daarmee is het wel wat gezegd;) de douche is vooral krap en onhandig. Pannen en keukengerei zijn ook niet in goede staat en ook niet alles is aanwezig.
- Carole (7/5): Good - Great Location and everything you could need in the apartment.
- Genesis (10/5): - It was an amazing stay
- David A (10/5): - Overall just a great place to stay. We will be back next year.
- Kimberly Elaine (6/5): - The apartment was very clean. The kitchen was set up well with coffee maker, toaster, microwave, dishes, stove, oven, fridge, clothes washer, etc. There are two TVs, one in the living room and one in the bedroom. Just fyi, there is no dishwasher. There is also no a/c in the apartment and it gets very warm. I bought a couple fans and was comfortable but it is May and not overly hot like summer may be. The area around the apartment was very nice and the park was lovely. A nice beach is a short drive (approx. 4 miles) away. There are several restaurants. We ate at nearly all of them and never had a bad meal. My ONLY complaint is in regard to the bed and the sofa. The bed is hard and uncomfortable. The sofa seems to be broken down, probably from people sleeping on it rather than the bed. I slept on the sofa but did not sleep well as it was uncomfortable, but still more comfortable than the bed. I would have given this place a higher rating if not for the bed and sofa. A restful sleep is very important to me.
- Julie (9/5): Superb -
- Keith (9/5): A great place to stay when visiting - Location.
Size- good space Shower- water pressure was low
- Eloise (10/5): Great apartment, would stay again. - Really clean and good value for money. The TV in the bedroom was a bonus. A first aid kit would be useful. Also no bin bags for the kitchen bin.
- Emma (10/5): Very homely - It was very warm and comfortable and right in the centre of town where I needed to be. Great to have flexible arrival & checkout I liked it all . Maybe one thing was it could have been a thicker duvet or a blanket available, that’s all .
- Diane (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. Could not fault the location, the apartment, the facilities or the host. Everything was fabulous. I travelled alone to visit my son how lives in Forres. It was a great location and was easy walking distance to all amenities. The location was lovely and peaceful. I will definitely be back whenever I come to visit again and will be recommending the apartments and Carlo to family and friends wishing to visit,.
- Sandra (3/5): Poor - We were given a different and smaller apartment than the one we booked.
- Richard (9/5): Great short stay. Just what I was looking for! - Convenience and location, and cleanliness. I was impressed. Good comms in advance of stay too. Nothing not to like. If any minor updates could be made, maybe a more comfortable mattress and possibly updated smoother locks on outer door. Only minor suggestions and would definitely stay again if in area.
- Barry (9/5): Great location and facilities, very responsive host. -
- Ceri (8/5): Fantastic, comfortable and convient! - The location was ideal for what we needed, close to a local wedding venue, and a great location to go explore, the beaches nearby were amazing. The flat was comfortable and Carlos was great at communicating before the stay. It was a little cold, the weather turned the night we arrived and it was a little chilly, and it could maybe do with a bit of modernising but was overall a lovely place to stay!
- Peter (8/5): Stayed 3 times, we will be back. - Shower head was broken, could not lock in to place
- Kevin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Angela (10/5): Exceptional - Location was spot on, yards from where i needed to be early in the morning. Facilities were excellent, and very spacious apartment. All was good
- Elaine (8/5): Very good -
- Robert (8/5): Very good -
- Jo (10/5): It was a delight to stay here, and it would be my first lodging choice if I return to Forres. - Lovely lodging! Great location in downtown Forres, tucked back in an alley a bit off the street, where it was quiet and private.
The apartment was very clean and well-lit, was fully and tastefully furnished, including a large kitchen area with all the appliances and cookware/utensils to make meals if one desired. Windows were plentiful and easy to open.
Local bus stops within a very short easy-walking distance.
"No contact" entry instructions were thorough and simple to follow. Payment was made over the phone.
All in all, it surpassed my expectations!

- Jill (10/5): clean and comfortable apartment in the town - spacious comfortable and clean. great loc nothing
- Penny (8/5): Very good -
- Nicola (10/5): Exceptional - Location brilliant for us. Very cosy and will be back again
- Richard (8/5): Very good -
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jillian (10/5): Exceptional - Exceptional 1 bed property in the centre of Forres. The apartment was equipped to a high standard and was extremely comfortable and homely. I enjoyed my stay at 3 Varis Apartments very much. I was visiting for a friend's wedding and felt Forres was just slightly too far as I had to rely on taxis which ended up being quite expensive. My own fault entirely. If only the apartment had been in Findhorn 😊👍
- Sophie (9/5): Superb -
- Peter (9/5): Superb - comfortable, clean and good facilities, easy access to town lack of parking immediately adjacent to property
- Michaela (10/5): Excellent base for a short break - We were pleasantly surprised at how well equip and spacious this accommodation was, amazing value for the money, first class throughout and very clean x Staff we met were very friendly x we chose it because we could bring the dog and we would use the accommodation in future.
Very firm bed, low sofas and the floor in our apartment squeaked if you wanted to be picky. we were out most of the time so didn’t really bother us.
Parking was off street about 50 metres away
- Corey (10/5): Above and beyond - For me and my Frenchie this was a very comfortable stay. I was a nightmare guest in that I locked myself out while walking the dog late Sunday evening. Although I had Marco’s number on my work phone I only had my personal phone in hand with 8% battery. Fortunately it was still light being summer. I phone Hotels.com to request help and they called back quite quickly to give me Carlo’s number and say he would be about ten minutes. Not only did he graciously let me in he also checked how I was enjoying the apartment and was very interested in my helping me have a positive experience. Then upon departure I forgot my electric toothbrush. I texted Marco once back home and he quickly confirmed it had been found and he would get it to a friend of mine in the area. Marco really went above and beyond and asked for nothing from me to compensate him. I will definitely stay here again if returning to Forres. BTW it’s a very beautiful area with a great mix of nature and amenities.
- James (8/5): - apartment was lovely, small issues, would have prefered bath sheet towels as opposed to bath towels. The shower was hot but not very strong. The bed was a pretty uncomfortable. . As i say these are small issues .would have no hesitation in staying again
- Verified traveler (10/5): Home from home - The owner was very friendly and informative and i liked the fact he greeted us when we arrived. The apartment was sufficient for what we needed.
- Michael (8/5): - Area was amazing, apartment was overall good. Only issue was the bed.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 附近有餐廳 可能較有吵雜音
城市接近海邊,海鳥的叫聲可能有點吵 尤其是一大早的時候
