We booked this accommodation at short notice and received a friendly welcome. We had a nice room overlooking the harbor, we could see the cruise boat. The room was compact, but everything was there, excellent beds, a TV, excellent WiFi and a good bathroom. From the accommodation you can walk to the center in 5 to 10 minutes.

We were very happy with our stay in Akureyri. It was close to a small grocery store and easy to find on the map. The room was very comfortable with good heating and hot water. The kitchen had everything you needed with nice coffee, utensils and appliances.

This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.

Our cabin was the heaven we were hoping to find in Iceland. All the way up north, just next to Akureyri, the most northern big town in Iceland, yet far enough from it to enjoy the peace and quiet nature and the fjord. In the mornings we were woken up to the endless whiteness coming from the snow and the ice in the valley visible from our cabin. We enjoyed cooking in the shared kitchen in the main house, having the morning coffee in the hot tub outside on -15, and then taking off to our day trips anywhere. The proximity to Akureyri allowed us to enjoy some northern city vibes too, with the possibility to have drinks or a meal in one of the gorgeous places there! The slopes were also very close, just a short 10-12 drive from our cabin. The highlight was the nighttime: we were blessed to have the Aurora Borealis almost every night, and our stay was perfect for it: almost no light pollution at all, an outdoor hot tub that allowed us to enjoy the lights soaked in hot water with some drinks, silence everywhere, just wonderful and out of this world experience! We loved also our hosts, they were amazing and always available, thank you Andrea and Christian with your family, for everything! Highly recommend this place for a northern paradise vacation!

    Beautiful guesthouse on a farm close to the ring road, very clean, cozy rooms with a charming, personal decor. Elisabeth was an extraordinary, very welcoming hostess, and her dishes were wonderful. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious with many homemade ingredients (e.g. bread, jam, etc.). It was definitely the best and most convivial accommodation during our stay in Iceland.
