Very comfortable, and large shared facilities. The host was very friendly, and we had a long chat with some of the guests i the beautiful dining area. It had windows on all sides including the ceiling, so it was really enjoyable.

The cabin was perfect. Beautiful views and super cozy. It was also equipped well for our short stay, I wish we stayed a couple of nights instead of just the one.

Island Charm: Perfect for Short Stays in Vestmannaeyjar
Island Charm: Perfect for Short Stays in Vestmannaeyjar
This hotel provided a comfortable and convenient base for exploring the charming island of Vestmannaeyjar. The location was fantastic - just a short walk from two grocery stores, making it easy to stock up on supplies.
For a delicious and convenient dinner, we tried the takeaway at Kráin, which was right across the street from the hotel. They impressed us so much we even went back for breakfast the next morning!
Vestmannaeyjar is a pedestrian-friendly island, so getting around was a breeze. We were able to easily reach all the sights we wanted to see on foot. The highlight of the island for us was definitely the friendly cat population and the beautiful, colorful houses.
One minor regret: we simply didn't have enough time to visit the beluga whale sanctuary. If we return, that will definitely be at the top of our list!
Overall, this hotel is a great choice for a short stay in Vestmannaeyjar. The location is convenient, the town is walkable, and the friendly atmosphere makes it a truly enjoyable experience.

Peaceful small town with rich and fascinating history, namely it's fishing industry and near annihilation by a volcano. I recommend hiking over and to the top of the volcano and visiting the volcano museum.

The ferry to get to the island was immaculately clean and ran on time both ways. While a smaller boat for such open seas, the sailing was still good and not too rough! The island itself was picturesque and I wish I could have stayed longer.

Such a beautiful island! The landscape is absolutely unreal.
Such a beautiful island! The landscape is absolutely unreal. Hiking the volcano and then visiting the museum is a must. We saw puffins on the outlook just past the golf course! (ie didn't need to take the bus tour to the southern tip of the island to see them). Vigtin bakery is delicious, as well as Tanginn for dinner. Check out Brothers Brewery for a good drink! Super easy to get around on foot, and the ferry was perfect! A must see in Iceland!

Vestmanneayar is a beautiful, self-contained fishing village...
Vestmanneayar is a beautiful, self-contained fishing village that also caters nicely to tourists. It is located on the island of Heimaey. Getting there is challenging but well worth it. The best way is to rent a car in Reykjavik and drive 2 hours to Landeyjahofn on the south coast. Leave the car there (I found no need for a car on the island) and take the ferry out to the island. Two or three days is sufficient to see everything on Heimaey. Bike rental, e-scooter and hiking are the best ways to get around. I was able to bike the length of the island with several stops in about 2 hours. It's hilly- what do you expect it's a volcano. Great opportunities to view wild life and spend time outside. The views cannot be beat. Food is excellent but (like the rest of Iceland) a bit expensive. The public pool/ hot tubs are a great way to end a physically taxing day.

What a beautiful island!
What a beautiful island! We took the tour with EyjaTours and it was so informative. The island holds so much rich history, and the scenery is gorgeous. We were able to see the puffins, as well as learn about volcanoes.
One of the best hotels. It was my third stay here and I will choose it again every time. Excellent location on the wonderful island of Heimaey, my room had a view over Eldfell and Helgafell, the two volcanoes on the island. The staff is friendly and helpful, the room was spatious, clean, comfortable and it had everything I needed. There is a restaurant, a sauna, luggage storage options and the staff is always there to help you. Great value for money and a pleasant place to stay while exploring beautiful Vestmannaeyjar.
Very warm and welcoming with excellent self checkin instructions. The room was clean and modern and perfectly comfortable for our two night visit to Heimaey. A highlight for this family
of 4 on the road for over a week already was the complimentary access to a washing machine and dryer. Cannot empathise enough how appreciated that was and I’m sure others do as well. We would definitely recommend staying here to small families and we will stay again ourselves.
The cottage was tiny but spotlessly clean and the small space was very well organised. The kitchenette had everything we needed to cook a simple meal. The location was quiet and lovely, a bit outside the town with a view over the ocean and even a couple of very friendly horses in a fence right outside our door. I would love to stay at Ofanleiti again next time I visit Vestmannaeyjar.
This little apartment is adorable! Has a beautiful view of the islands surrounding Heimaey as well :) We received messages from the host that were very welcoming and kind, they were happy to help with anything we could have needed. We only stayed one night, but would have loved to stay longer if we could have!
Great location, incredible views when we woke up, and only a 5 minute drive from the ferry. Close to lots of other things in the area. There were adjustable radiators in the cabins and they were easy to use. Each was equipped with a mini-fridge and plenty of outlets. Good for the price.
It is such a cool place to stay! It is unlike any other hotel or hostel that I have ever stayed in. You get your very own capsule that feels out of this world. The staff were super friendly and accommodating for our needs. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting in the area!
The accommodation was cozy, comfortable, and everything was so clean. In the kitchen you can use all the things, you can cook if you want or save your things in the fridge. I have never been in a Guesthouse but it is incredible, like a hotel. So recommendable. Absolutely.
Excellent location right next to ferry terminal and within 2 minutes walk of all the shops, restaurants and tour companies. Stunning views of the harbour and surrounding volcanoes. Really comfortable beds and beautifully furnished apartment. Excellent value for money.
The location is simply amazing, nobody should miss it when coming to Vestmannaeyjar. I booked the deluxe cabin, and it was excellent. The bathroom and kitchen are in the main building. Everything is very clean. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
Great location, very close to the ferry and located near all the restaurants, the brewery and the grocery stores. Owner is super nice and helpful! The place is very clean and quiet and a great place to stay. Parking is right outside.
Simply outstanding hotel! We got a deluxe double which was roomy and more than comfortable. Loved the decor and toiletries. Robes and slippers provided for spa. Restaurant was great as well. Don’t hesitate to stay at this little gem!
The location was not far from the ferry landing. It was right in town so made walking to places very convenient. We were able to check ourselves in so that was perfect for us to check in when we were ready.
I loved everything about our place! The location was perfect -- right next to downtown, dinner at GOTT, and drinks at The Puffin Bar. It was the perfect spot for our first trip to Heimaey, my dream town.
We stayed in the red cottage for one night while visiting
Vestmannaeyjar. The weather was perfect and the views were stunning. The bed was very comfortable and it is just so peaceful.
Nice location, very close to the ferry. The bed was nice and it was also very nice to be able to open the windows, which isn’t the case in many hotels.
