Free coffee and tea all day, free sauna with access to sea, spacious lobby.
The hotel feels much more premium and modern in reality than from the pictures.
The staff was super helpful.
Best place to see auroras.
If you don’t reserve the dinner. You can still eat food from the restaurant in the hotel lobby, which we actually found more comfortable.

Olivier is a wonderful host who has put so much thought and passion into this boat house eco lodge, which pays homage to his own time as a sailor. Everything is clean and easy to use, the showers are hot with great water pressure, and the kitchen has everything you need. The beds are comfortable and the lodge is well heated. Finally, the view was remarkable. I have only good things to say about my stay here, and hope to come back soon!

The apartment is designed very beautifully. It has everything you need including dishwasher and coffee machine. It is also super clean. We slept very well here (the bed is comfortably on the soft side by design). We could park right in front of the door. Communication with the host was very good.

What an amazing place to stay! We saw the Northern lights even just for a bit as soon as we arrived, so they couldn't do a better welcome! The room was clean, tidy, and very, very modern! The view was excellent, the people were nice and helpful, the access to the room was very convenient, and the overall experience was simply amazing and unforgettable!

Stunning location, peaceful & quiet. If you’re lucky enough on a clear day it’s perfect to see the northern lights. Extremely spacious apartment with all basic amenities included.
Only advice would be is to rent a car from the airport which is easy & affordable as taxis cost a fortune to get to the city/ airport & public transportation is scarce.

The house was spacious, very clean, and felt like a home <3 the property is on the water — it’s very beautiful and serene. There was a sauna on-site that we used for an extra fee. It was awesome!

Very picturesque island, two days is more than enough to explore it. Sunshine is a rarity. End of season mid August. Place for camper vans to park. One shop and one cafe. You can buy only beer in a shop, no alcohol. For a harder spirits you need to travel to Tromso. Bring your food if you can, shops sells very simple and not very good staff. More or less decent meal you can have in an arctic hotel, which is pricey and just ok, no more, choice is limited.

I enjoyed the amazing views as well as the peaceful environment. The apartment was neat and had everything I needed.
The bus ride into town was a great way to see more of Tromso even though it was 30 minutes each way. I loved it.

The apartment is a little ways from the main city but the check in lady was kind enough to share some tips on how we can move around to and from the city. The norwegian bus system is pretty accurate in terms of timing and very easy for us foreigners to buy the tickets etc.
However, because the apartment is bit far away, the bus line that takes you around the area will close rather early so you might have to resolve in taking a cab. They are also closed on Sunday and very limited times on Satuday. (Note, this is not the main public bus transport in Tromso but the public bus (that takes you to Tromso...)
The apartment itself is super lovely, we saw the aurora from our place on the day we arrived. The view is just insane with the mountains and the waters, i highly recommend this place and if i ever were to come back here, i'd definitely stay with them again

The most beautiful experience we could have imagined!
The location, the host, the place and everything was absolutely incredible – 5-star experience!!!
The host was always there to support us with whatever we needed or could think of – thank you so much!
The location itself is slightly remote with a most stunning view of the sea. We connected with the locals, eat fresh fish, swam in the sea, saw dolphins, ... and the list goes on.
We had the most beautiful and peaceful time staying at Buvic.

Very clean comfy cozy apartment in a mountain setting. Very beautiful area to drive around. Northern lights can be watched from a nearby location. Phillip helped with aurora locations and local attractions. Enjoyed our stay 20 min away from city center and around fjords.
