Beautiful boutique hotel in a stunning location! The service provided by the team was above and beyond. So grateful for the “wake up call” service when the Northern Lights were present as this was a bucket list experience for me. Excellent area to stay for exploring the waterfalls, exploring Vik and going on a glacier excursion. I highly recommend and thank you to Umi for a dreamy stay!

Umi Hotel was perfect. It was the perfect home base for our visit of the southern coast of Iceland. The hotel is beautiful, clean, the view epic, and the staff friendly! Will definitely be coming back to stay again without a question!

The setting for this hotel is absolutely breathtaking, situated between a glacier and a private black sand beach. The hotel is very comfortable. Dinner was probably the best meal we had in Iceland. As a bonus, an elderly horse lives on the property and lets people pet her.

Adorable family owned hotel! The staffed and food was great! The walking trail to the beach took about 15 minutes one way and was definitely worth the walk. Overall great hotel in Iceland. High recommend.

What a cool property. The hot pool was fabulous. The bar(while not always well staffed) had a view to die for. And the food was incredible
