    When the weather was challenging and everything was closed due to storm and Easter holiday, Bjarni still will make it a comfortable as possible.

    Very cozy! Bjarni and his family are the best hosts ever. They will do anything they can to make you trip the best including turning on the hot tub in a blizzard and entertaining you with stories!

    Bjarni was treating us very well. Everything that wasn’t available, he brought over in no time and also helped us with everything. Really nice and easygoing hosts. Awesome hottub and Sauna. Can also highly recommend to visit their restaurant just a couple meters away. Also ask him about Jürgen Klopp ;) you will feel welcome here!

    Very nice, cozy and private cottage. Comfortable bed, good kitchenette, private bathroom. Outdoor shower was a bit surprising and novel, but both of us definitely enjoyed it. Views are fabulous, so is the hot tub. Owners are very helpful and informative.

    The cottage was very tiny, super small toilet and no shower inside, just outside near the hot tub. For is (group of 3) it was fine 100%, but we stayed only for 1 night. Maybe if we’d need more days - that would be a problem 😁

    Very nice location! Peaceful and quiet, clean, sauna and hot tub was just amazing addition to that! The host is very nice and welcoming ☺️

    Bjarni is a lovely and welcoming host. The place is very cosy and sweet and the hot tub and the sauna in the garden are fantastic. We got some food to go at his restaurant - the Kaffihus (best fishsoup ever!) - and ate it on our porch! Perfect stay - we will be back for sure!

    This was the perfect stay! My husband and I stayed for 2 nights during our honeymoon in one of the cottages and it was our favorite place by far during our whole 3 week trip. The room is adorable and cozy and had everything we needed to make ourselves breakfast in the morning. The bed was super comfortable and a double (not 2 twins which we’ve mostly experienced traveling on a budget in Iceland… pretty funny on your honeymoon!). The hot tub outside next to the outdoor shower and barrel sauna was SUCH a treat, perfectly hot and so welcome after a freezing cold/wet day ferrying out to Grímsey island. And the value for the room is amazing, and not just by Iceland standards! More than anything though the host Bjarni is just about the nicest human we’ve ever met. He was so accommodating and generous from the second we booked the room months before our trip until when we arrived in Dalvík. It felt like he was catering to us personally which we know can’t be true because he also manages a 40 bed hostel down the road AND runs the little cafe in town! He showed us around his cafe the morning we left and it’s super charming with tons of history, we wish we could have stayed and enjoyed some of his famous fish soup. We loved listening to his stories about the characters he’s had at the cafe (True Detective filmed their 4th season there!). And it sounds like the “eat free fish” festival in August is quite the event! Also want to give a shout out to Dalvík in general, super charming little seaside town and a great break from the hustle and bustle of the ring road. It’s well worth the detour, check out the beer bath (Drink beer while bathing in beer?! Hell yeah) and be sure to make it out to Grímsey to see just an unbelievable amount of birds and a really interesting tiny island community. 10/10 all around, we will absolutely be back!

    We had our shower outside which was ok, maybe others won t like it, the cabin has a toilet but not a shower which is available nearby we were told.

    Lovely hot tub and quite comfy cabin, owner is super friendly and helped a lot. It s true that the fish soup at his cafe was superb, also the staff at the cafe

    Pay attention while booking: some cottages don't have a shower. The shower is outside, shared, with no privacy, really just a hose with hot water attached to a tree. For me that was fine. But I imagine some people may expect a fully equipped bathroom at this price.

    Really everything. Very nice place.

    Some white noise coming from the water running into the hot tub, but it didn't bother us. It did block the small amount of traffic noises, so in a way it's a positive thing. I believe the other two cottages don't have that noise. Ofcourse it would have been nice to have a private shower by the cabin, but the alternatives were good enough.

    Small, cozy, everything we needed was there. Good value for the money. Clean cottage and hot tub was always available to us even if shared with the other cabins. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Pets are allowed, so I was able to bring my 🐦 there 😁

    Everything was perfect! :)

    Staying at Vegamot Cottage was unforgettable experience. The owner - Bjorni is such a nic guy, who gave us more than accomodation - many recommendations, map with attractions, road tips made by him and so on. In case of cottage... there is nothing what we consider as a bad experience. Next the cottage is also hot tube, sauna, nature shower with geothermal water with constant 40degrees. Everything is including. Dalvik is such a beautiful harbor city, where I would like to move and stay there for rest of my life :-D

    Really nice wooden cabins with a bathroom. The owner Byarni (spelling ?) was very friendly and worked exceptionally hard at keeping his guests happy and informed us on the local attractions. They also own/manage a local restaurant that serves the best fish soup in Iceland.
