"We checked in a day early after an abysmal experience at our previous hotel - and we’re glad we did! Beautiful location, comfortable beds, spotless room, exceptional staff, and amazing breakfasts and dinners. This was a truly memorable place. "

"Great location to access entire peninsula. Clean rooms. My husband was able to fish after speaking to the owners which was great. We would return here. "

"Awesome location and communication was prompt"

"Everything is perfect, can see the aurora just outside the guesthouse! Very friendly staff, fully equipped kitchen!PERFECT! 😍"

"This is a great place to stay if you are looking to be away from city lights so you can try to see the Northern Lights. We were fortunate they were visible on our night here and it was a highlight of our trip. The staff is friendly, but they are not available at all times. Our shower was stopped up, but there is no staff late at night so we had to wait until morning for it to be fixed. They took care of it right away then, so it's just a matter of expectations. Overall, I would stay here again."

"The house was very clean and well appointed. The location was perfect for our midpoint stop traveling the peninsula. The remote location was also perfect for Northern lights viewing yet 5 minutes from the small town of Arnarstapi."

"The staff was so friendly and helpful and the hotel was beautiful and comfortable. It’s set on a remote beach so the views can’t be beat. The food was excellent as well. I would definitely stay here again!"

"Great view! Clean and basic, but fabulous restaurant nextdoor"
