Nothing wrong with the cottage we had, but e.g. the shower drain did not work properly. The breakfast was good, but more attention to tidiness while more people use it, is appreciated.

It was one of our favorites, we stayed in the cottages and they were like you were in the frozen disney movie, it was a dream. On the cottage also has a little stove, refrigerator and a little sink, so if you need to cook something that would be perfect. The receptionist was very helpful, thanks to him we were able to see the little PUFFINS that are 1 hour away. Beautiful and romantic cottage. 🇵🇷

Absolutely amazing. There are three areas to stay. Cabins, long single story building with private little outlooks/access to woods, and a hotel type. We stayed in the one level building and it was incredible. So quiet and clean. Large rooms. Perfect views for the lights right out your room. Staff was SO nice. Fav hotel in Iceland.
