This remote property is perfect for those looking to get off the beaten path. It is in a very quiet, beautiful cove overlooking the ocean. While we were there, we were lucky to meet the hosts and even see seals. We highly recommend. The only thing I would caution is to bring your own snacks if you stay on Sunday as the grocery store is closed.

A magical place, we would have loved to stay longer. Very clean, comfortable and perfectly equipped accommodation in the most beautiful place we have come across in Iceland. Also all people from the local community have been very kind and friendly to us. Hope to come back, sooner or later

Unfortunatly we didn't get to stay at this wonderfull place due to car trouble. We had to cancel our stay there and reroute. We thank the owners for understanding and will definitly come back to there in the futur. For future travelers, the road leading to this idealic place is under revision due to the winter damages.. Make sure to have a spare tyre in the car and not just the repairkit!! Hire the right car for off road driving, which it is out there.

Excellent place to stay in Westfjords with simply stunning landscape and vistas. It is very cold up there but the room was lovely and warm. Communal kitchen was very well equipped. Lovely room with table and chairs outside on the deck with view of the pebbly beach. Top place to stay but be mindful there is a long and very bumpy dirt road to acess and location is remote. ( Road best suited to a 4WD , not a little city car) Loved this place!

Bel hébergement dans un lieu magnifique. Les montagnes environnantes et la baie sont magnifiques, plusieurs sentiers de marche à proximité ainsi qu'une source thermale incroyable. Je recommande absolument pour avoir un moment de tranquillité et décrocher. Attention toutefois à la route qui est longue et sinueuse pour s'y rendre.

Urdartindur was in a remote but beautiful area. We had not realised there was a long gravel road (over 60km) to get there, but this contributed to its unique quality. We liked being able to cook for ourselves, and an absolute highlight was the nearby outdoor pool and hot tub by the sea. We really enjoyed our stay!

Quaint little cabin, with everything you need to brave the high winds of the west fjords. One recommendation, provide a mini bar with a red and white wine and mini liquors. After the treacherous drive through the icy mountains, we could’ve really used a drink to calm the nerves. Beautiful property Would stay again!

We highly enjoyed our stay. It is a small cabin and was tight for 4 adults, but we made it work with leaving a bit of our luggage in the car. Clean, small basic kitchen and BBQ that worked for us. Be aware you are very far out there. There is one restaurant but it was not open when we were there (opens June) and one very small convenience store (with a cut local coffee shop)--but I am not sure the hours are set. Best to make sure you bring your food and be prepared. There are a couple of nice hikes and the pools are amazing. It is quiet, no, or little human sounds. Road is unpaved and narrow in places with a drop off the side, that didn't bother us, but could disturb some.

Chambre spacieuse au bout du monde

Très belle chambre et salle de bain, avec une vue sur les collines. Il y a un frigo et un sèche-cheveux. Un lave-linge est à disposition pour 700 ISK, mais il n’y a pas de sèche-linge. Nous recommandons cet hébergement au bout du monde même s’il n’y a pas de service de petit-déjeuner et que le chauffage n’est pas très performant. Il y a un très bon restaurant à proximité.

Das Zimmer im Haupthaus war schön eingerichtet, ich hatte ein eigenes Bad. Die Dame vor Ort war unglaublich nett. Sie hat auch betont, dass ich immer anrufen kann - sie wohnt eine Bucht weiter. Die Küche war ausgestattet, mit den notwendigen Utensilien. Der Raum war etwas ungemütlich, weil groß und betonlastig. Ich war aber auch komplett alleine dort - es war also nicht mit Leben gefüllt. Ich war nicht in der Lage meine Tür abzuschließen (kann aber an mir gelegen haben) das war etwas blöd. Gerade weil ich alleine dort war und draußen ein Sturm getost hat. Weil die Straße aufgrund Wetter (Regen/Wind) etwas schwierig zu fahren war, habe ich am nächsten Morgen angerufen, um zu fragen, wie die Lage von den Einheimischen eingeschätzt wird. Sie haben geraten, bis 14:00 Uhr zu warten und ich durfte selbstverständlich so lange in dem Zimmer bleiben. Später kam noch die Dame vom Vortag und hat gesagt, dass ich die Nummer mitnehmen soll und auch auf dem Weg anrufen kann, wenn irgendwelche Schwierigkeiten wegen des Wetters auftauchen. Das fand ich sehr nett!

One of the most breathtaking spots I have ever travelled to. If you like a remote spot this is the place to stay. There is a hot pool 10 mins down the road around the bend of the peninsula. Sky was clear and we were able to catch the aurora as well. Very clean and warm. Easy to find as well :)
