Absolutely adorable cabins with private soaking tubs, thin walls but you wouldn’t be spending a large amount of time inside anyway. Breakfast was great as well!
We stayed for one night in one of the cottages. Check in was very smooth and staff were very friendly. Our cottage was clean, kitchen was well equipped and the hot tub was a great way to end our long day.
We had a cute little cottage and a private hot tub. It was a great way to end our travel day by soaking in the tub and sleeping well. The restaurant was good as well.
I wish i could stay here for another two days. The 2 bedroom apartment i stayed at was spacious and clean. Plus the jacuzzi was very clean. The downside is if you want to cook, you need to bring your cooking oil and etc.
Great and relaxing stay! The jacuzzi could have a been a little cleaner but acceptable, the kitchen needs a vent hood or screens on window to they can open. The fire alarm went off while we were making meals and the staff recommended us not to open the windows to avoid outdoor bugs.
The cabin had everything we needed. It was clean. It’s right on highway and crater attraction is very near by.

Good restaurant for dinner, well equipped kitchen for breakfast and other evenings where we cooked ourselves.
Overall great stay, good location, and easy to find.
This was a great stay and a good base for the golden circle. We stayed in a 1-bedroom cottage. The rooms are definitely big enough for three, though I think with more it could definitely get squashy. The kitchen was fairly well-stocked, though in our case the stove light was not functioning. Heating functioned well though our stay was in August so it was not very cold outside. The bathroom was clean and had a heated towel rail.
The access to the upper bunk was a little funky. There is a ladder, but this folds out and cannot be used when there are people in the lower bed.
The hot tubs in the centre were great - well heated, clean and for us at least, quite empty. The general property overall has a very peaceful vibe, which is quite enjoyable if you are looking for a bit of rest during your days.

Great cottages in a lovely setting with a hot tub.
The best place we've stayed in Iceland so far! The cottage was clean, charming, and well-serviced. And the onsite restaurant was great, too!

The cabins accurately match the photos. Wonderful hot tub, excellent aesthetics, check in was easy and accommodating to late check ins upon request. Really satisfied overall. However, the dining table light did not work and neither did the smart TV. Informed staff at reception and they said they will send someone to fix the light, but that never happened. Also spoke with manager (I believe) about the TV not working and he said they were just installed and he was not sure why it didn’t work.
