Beautiful cabin. So new that it wasn’t 100% ready yet. Kitchenette sparsely stocked, wifi did not reach cabin; curtains not long enough to cover entire window in kitchen and bedroom. Needed a little more TLC then it would be a 5.

The location was great. Staff was very nice as well. The log cabins were very homely. They were a bit small but that was fine. Only minor feedback I would give is that the basin was very small which made it hard to use.

Nice simple room in a beautiful location. Breakfast and dinner were a little chaotic due to multiple large buses with tour groups that were staying there too. Dinner was our favorite. The female server took excellent care of us even though she was very busy. The quality of the food was great. I got the roasted lamb with potatoes and my girlfriend got the oven baked cod char. We also got a side of delicious bread.

We stayed in one of their new cabins and it was well above my expectations. Super clean and warm room, friendly staff and the food from the restaurant was amazing as well. Area is super quiet and can give you a good view of the northern lights if they are out. Would stay here again.

We stayed one night in one of the new deluxe cabins. It has a mountain view in the back and ocean view in the front, although our cabin’s view was partially obstructed by a building and cars parked. It was still nice and peaceful. The cabin itself is nice. It has a small kitchenette with a kettle, microwave and some dishes. We particularly enjoyed the heated bathroom floor. The location is great for exploring the Glacier lagoon and Diamond beach.

Cabins were beautifully done. It is small, but has everything we need. Showers feel very nice and hot. Cabins were located at the very end of the resort, located next to the farm with lots of sheeps. Homes were very clean, and has everything we need. Highly recommend it, we had an amazing stay :)

Visiting the South coast of Iceland we picked various lodging that can accommodate us on our road trip / overnight stopovers . The Guesthouse Geroi our hotel after a long drive from Reykjavík , wanted to have a meal in their dining room but no reservation and was fully booked , very disappointed as when I called to let them know we’re arriving and if there’s a restaurant . No mention we should reserve . They suggest the restaurant on the same property down the road where we ate instead Room was clean , minimal amenities

Great place to get some rest and sleep for the night. A bit tiny for three people but enough room to lie down and some room for belongings, practical use of small space. Private bathroom was a nice add, plus plenty of parking space for your car. Kitchen facilities would have been nice for people who are on a budget and wanted to cook their own meal but I get the business model. There is a restaurant for breakfast and dinner so it was all good. Nice mountain view at the back and sea in the front. The free coffee and tea was a nice touch too. Good place to stay.

This was right on route 1 near Diamond Beach, 15 min away. We were there with 4 adults and there was an extra bed in the room so we used it to store our bags. There was a lounge area on the 1 and 2nd floor so if you were with group of friends, you can hang out there. Breakfast was not included but their food was great. Not many restaurants near by so we enjoyed their dinner and breakfast.

Keep it brief

Stayed in a cabin for one night and had the farmhouse dinner and breakfast. Stay wasn’t bad but I recommend skipping the meals. Neither was good nor worth the cost. Nothing in the immediate area to do or see.

Uncomfortable and overpriced

While the personnel did try their best to make our stay pleasant, the 3-person bungalow is ridiculously small for the price charged (over $450/ night). There was not even enough room to open our suitcases inside the room, most of the time we had to leave them in the car trunk. It is not clear how one can aerate the space without leaving the entrance door open and swarms of flying insects inside the room. I appreciate the scarcity of housing accommodations in the area, but compared to other facilities on the south coast of Iceland the pricing is not justified.
