The location is close to the ferry, 20 minute easy walk, yet nestled away in a spectacular seaside valley. Short, steep hike takes you to Puffins and breathtaking ocean views. Cabin stayed dry during heavy rain and two portable heaters kept the 2 rooms cozy.
GermanyLocation of the camp site is amazing, great comfortable cabins, great facilities. Everything was perfect, next visit at Vestmannaeyjar glamping and camping , and I'm strongly suggest to do the same 😁
IcelandWe had almost zero visibility - however - what we could see from our huts was awesome. The huts are perfect for a couple. If you don't mind the short walk up the hill to shower or use the bathroom this place is awesome. We were there during the start of the off season so not many other people were there.
United States of AmericaGreat location on edge of town and looking out to sea with massive mountain backdrop. Liked the hobbit style barrel rooms with sitting room. Large dining area with plenty of dishes.
CanadaCute place to stay. Nice little cabins that were comfortable for our stay. Bathrooms were nice and clean with a nice sink area to use as well outside of the bathroom. Cool location as we got to watch the puffins on the cliffs :). Also got to see the nothern lights!
United States of AmericaBeautiful location, with nearby cliffs of nesting Puffins!
United States of AmericaGreat location. Amazing view. The cabins are adorable!
United States of AmericaThis property was fantastic! We had no idea that it's located in such an important place on the Westman Islands, where they hold the music festival and also very close to elephant rock. The tiny house we stayed in was so cute and felt like home. The grounds were beautiful and had great views of the water and other islands at the top of the hill near the main buildings.
United States of AmericaThis is such a cool place to stay. It's about a 15 minute walk from where the ferry dropped us off in town. The check-in was easy as there was someone at the desk when we arrived, but later on in the day when I needed to ask a question, there was no one there. It didn't help that i couldn't call for assistance because I didn't get an international plan, but that is my fault; the sign posted said they'd be there within 10 minutes of getting a call so i'm sure that would've been the case had i been able to call. You can't beat the views that this place provides. Despite it's proximity to the town, it feels like you're miles away from civilization
United States of AmericaBeautiful spot close to town and an easy drive to any part of the island! We went for a hike up the crater just outside the front door. The common area/kitchen facilities were great to have, and the radiators in each cabin kept them warm and cosy, especially welcome on the VERY windy evening that we were there.
