- "Awesome! Best dinner in Iceland so far. We had to leave early in the morning, so Gudrun prepared a take away breakfast box for us. It was absolutely amazing. Huts and interior are extremely stylish and comfortable. Thanks for everything!" - "This place is remote and amazing! The rooms are beautifully styled and very comfortable. We had a wooden deck with stunning view off the back. The food was extraordinary! I had fish and it was one of the best meals I had in Iceland. The owner is also the chef and she's full of amazing info and stories. Breakfast was also probably one of the best during our 10 day Ring Road adventure. The homemade waffles and lamb sausage were so good. We saw the Northern Lights here which was an added bonus!"

- "The cabin was beautifully located, with a view over the bay towards Kirkjufell. The cabin was a lovely studio layout and had everything we needed to relax and watch the world go by. We came in winter and there were continual snow showers coming over, but the cabin stayed nicely warm throughout. The owners were very helpful and accommodating when we arrived early on our first day." - "Amazing location overlooking Kirkjufell in Snaefellsness, with beautiful views. Well furnished, well appointed cabins. Very comfortable and with everything you need for your stay. Fantastic location to spend time in Snaefellsness. Would stay here again."
