“Great location to visit waterfalls & sites in south Iceland”
Convenient location to waterfalls, Vik, Reynisfjara beach & other sites along the south coast. Bed was comfortable with nice breakfast included in your room rate. Dinner was excellent, highly recommend eating there every night you stay. Bar served good drinks. Sauna was lovely with a calming view. Horses right outside. A short walk to a black beach area all to yourself. We enjoyed our stay.

“A magical experience”
Everything about our stay was wonderful: the location, the staff, the onsite restaurant and bar was everything we expected and more. The sauna was a highlight and the short walk to a deserted black sand beach was amazing. They also offer a northern lights wake up service. Wonderful and would definitely stay again.

“Recommend! :)”
It was 3 of us on the trip and the beds were made for 2 people only, the staff was really helpful and they quickly offered us a different room. The receptionist was really nice, they offered a wake up call for aurora, unfortunately there was not any during our stay. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. We appreciate the free parking. 20 minutes walk is a private black sand beach which was really nice during the sunrise. The breakfast was tasty.
