Loved being able to see the glaciers and lupine through the window. Perfect little spot. Beds were comfortable!! Room was warm!! The sheep woke us up chatting in the morning (that’s a good thing, they are so cute!!). Little kitchenette was stocked with exactly what we needed to prepare a small meal for two. Mini fridge! Shower was great. Just have to keep showers short but that was fine.
I really enjoyed staying here! It was perfect and a convenient location for the few hikes we had planned! We also took advantage of the kitchen area for cooking breakfast and dinner!
Cute new cabin with mini kitchen. Great views all around.

Cabins stay was very nice and cute. Only thing I would say is the bedding could have been cleaner. There was pieces of hair in my bed from a previous tenant.
Loved the property! The esthetic was so cute and it was so clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

View is amazing, the place is very nice, we loved it. It would have been nice to have a microwave but we managed. The hot water is limited so we would get wet turn the water off to soap up then rinse off again to ensure we both had hot water. I would recommend this place to people.
This property is a gem of Iceland. The property is easy to find - the conods are the structures in the area. Driving from West to East - just turn left after the glacier foot - can't miss them! :D
I received my entry code both in messages in e-mail and Expedia. The room was cozy, quiet, and serene. The kitchenette was much appreciated and included instructions for confused foreign tourists.
My only (ultra-picky) complaints came from the desire for more bathroom shelf space, a shower wash cloth, and a roll of paper towel for kitchen spills.
I look forward to staying here again and the view from the back will forever be a warm memory in my heart.
This was a cool place. Simple, cool clean lines. The units have a black exterior to match the general Icelandic vibe / volcanic roots and culture. The kitchenette with a fridge and little hot plate type set up seems like it would be useful. If you go to Höfn for dinner, Otto Matur and Drykkur was amazing, cute, quaint. The big picture window allowed for a beautiful view of the mountains and glacier, would have been nice had the northern lights been visible too. It’s about 30 minutes to Hofn which has a good number of restaurants or 30 minutes the other direction for diamond beach. Definitely would consider staying here again.
