The cabin was as advertised. It was clean and comfortable. It sits on the shore of a small lake with birds and fish. The area is quiet and walkable to the various amenities in Olafsfjordur (a couple of restaurants, harbour and swimming pool). Would book again.

Amazing hot tub with good view of the sky to view aurora. Comfortable room in quiet part of town with shop near by.

The cabins are set in a quiet but not secluded environment, very cute and charming, with detailed instructions on how to use the hot tub.

This cabin was a real highlight of an already awesome visit to Iceland. Gorgeous location, immaculately clean, and beautifully quiet, our family of 4 had a terrific time here. The hot tub was delightful. Highly recommend!

property owner was so kind to offer us an upgrade to a larger cabin when 1 of the heater wasn't working well, but we didn't want to trouble him, as we are only book for 1 night. the hot tube was great! really enjoy the stay!

8/10 Very good

The hot tub was a nice touch although I needed to learn how to clean it and start it up. Olafsjordur basically shuts down at night with only one restaurant open after hours and no grocery stores. The property owner responded quickly to my call for pots and pans.

4/10 Fair

This property advertising was misleading. We expected the cabin to be out of town and with more seclusion, with nature and space around the cabin. The cabins are in a line facing a nearly dry slew not a large lake or the fjord. The TV didn't work. The cabins are beautiful, spacious and clean.

The cabins were really nice, and some of them look out on a spectacular view. Cabins were clean and warm, and internet was good. Not all cabins have a spectacular view. The instructions to check in were problematic as the keycode was never sent (or never received). In that case you need to go to a different hotel across the street to get the info. The area is beautiful but not developed for tourists yet.

It was a great place for a 2 night stay. The hot tub was nice after a long day, easy enough to fill.

Amazing cabins right by a lake. Feels very disconnected, which was great. Also has a hot tub. Which was a major plus.

I was expecting the cabin to be in a touristy setting but it was in the middle of the city with no view and little natural light coming in. When we arrived the windows were closed and there was a slight smell.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

Our stay was okay. The cabin itself was relatively clean, but the hot tub was terribly cracked/broken so not able to be used. Also, there were a lot of transient people that walked up to our windows while we were cooking/eating and just relatively going about our stay. Really no privacy which made it a bit uncomfortable. I wouldn’t stay here again

Great little cabin on an unswimmable lake

The cabin itself was great, with everything we needed (especially the hot tub on the porch!), but the pictures on the website make the surrounding area look a lot more remote and attractive than it actually is. The lake is very shallow and unsuitable for swimming, but apparently attractive to local jet skiers. The kayaks available for use are fun, but pretty beat up.
