Loved this stay! The island is definitely not a place to miss and the cabin added to our experience. Extremely clean, warm blankets, sufficient kitchenette.

Enchanting place!
An absoluted enchanting place to stay. We absolutely loved the views. It was comfortable, clean and warm.
Love that there are Icelandic horses right next to the cottages. A great space overall. Only problem was there was almost no hot water. Better take a quick shower!

Great views on a tiny Island off the coast of Iceland.
The room is basically an 8 x 10 shed. It’s a bit rundown but had everything we needed for one night. Shower, mini kitchen, coffee maker, toaster, table and chairs and comfortable bunk beds.

This place was so cute! Woke up in the morning to open the blinds with horses outside my window. Be sure to call to get the code for the lock box that your key is in. We showed up when it was dark. I was not completely sure which cottage was mine, but figured it out because it was the only one with the lights out. My other tip would be to pack a towel if you plan on staying here.

Pas de wifi à l intérieur du petit cottage vert
"Pseudo antenne rerouteur wifi pensouillant à un clou le long du mur.wifi très aléatoire en restant dehors sous l antenne. Idem pour antenne Tv à l intérieur, une seule chaine et encore. Bel emplacement vers l extrémité de la presqu île.
Die Unterkunft hat die Größe und Ausstattung einer Garage, für 3 Leute unzumutbar. Man kann sich nicht mal umdrehen, einen Tag kein warmes Wasser gehabt (Vermieterin hat sich aber gekümmert). Betten mies, Bad kalt und winzig. Es war absolut schrecklich und total überteuert. Kein Komfort vgl. Tinyhouse.

This was a great place to stay! The views from our cottage were stunning and it was very close (5 minutes) from the puffin house.
