The pods were extremely confirmed cozy! There were three radiators so we were warm. The property is beautiful and the staff was welcoming and accommodating. We ate dinner and breakfast at the restaurant and both were fantastic. I will definitely stay here again when I return!

Great bargain option! Gorgeous waterfall area on the property, good breakfast and dinner at the restaurant. Very peaceful area. Stayed in the camping pod, very basic but had a comfortable bed. The mini fridge in my room only could fit maybe one can of soda and it didn't seem to work, and the shower was a communal shower and make sure you bring shower shoes it did not look like it was deep cleaned in a long time, but it if you consider you are essentially camping its really not a big deal. Spa tubs were nice as well but only open limited hours. If you are looking for a nice budget option to stay in this area stay here!

Disliked: Amenities
Pod was really fun to stay in. Car parked adjacent to your pod. Private enough despite all surrounding pods being occupied. Paid additional for supplied linen and towel - very basic and looked well used/tired. Towels were good. Shared showers involved two open showers next to each other in a small room - did not use as did not have appropriate footwear. A number of private toilets scattered around the site. Overall found the shower/bathroom underwhelming and was glad to move onto our next accommodation. Two shared kitchens were well equipped including a small microwave oven.

Interesting place…. Good amenities and pods are warm and comfortable. Great view from restaurant and some quirky mess that was fun to investigate. Food was ok but that’s Iceland… everyday food with high prices…. Overall would def recommend if you’d happy to be in remote place that’s pretty and enjoy hot tubs.

Great camp ground with friendly staff, and good restaurant. Hot tubs are NOT worth visiting. Uncleaned, and not well maintained. All other aspects of the stay were great.
