Loved the location! Best part of this guesthouse. The staff was lovely, and breakfast was good. Free entry to the Vestrahorn area, which was very practical. The rooms were clean and modern!

Location is good, it’s as close as you can get to the mirror beach. The rooms are new and very clean. It was warm even in the winter. You can hear neighbour rooms very well so bring earplugs. We checked in late (9pm) but it was not a problem. Very basic breakfast but it was sufficient. The cafe is a cafe, don’t expect to get food there, only cakes and coffee.

Where do we even begin? This place is absolutely amazing, set in the most beautiful location with free , unlimited access to Stokksnes area. The room was spacious, modern, spotlessly clean and had everything you may need for comfortable stay , bed extremely comfortable. Breakfast was great, and you just have to try delicious waffles with rhubarb sauce and cream ! The ladies ( staff ) are amazing, make you feel so welcome , special thanks to Linda, who is a superstar and made our stay even more special. This place is actually so good that we had booked it again before we even left Iceland. Would highly recommend and we will never book anywhere else.

For any photographers wanting to get photos of Vestrahorn, there is no better place to stay. There have been new additions to guesthouse over the past year and the new rooms are excellent! Some even have kichenettes and washer/dryers which is great especially if on a longer trip. Access to the beach is included and you can get tickets at cafe to come and go as you please and chase the light.
