Arnarstapi Cottages

滿意！！！

Very beautiful little cottages in the middle of an amazing spot in Iceland, lots of great spots for pictures and exploring! The room was very clean and had everything that we needed for our stay!

I highly reccomend it. It was nice to have privacy and the cottage very beautiful inside and out. We were able to see the northern lights at night.

Small basic rooms. Good enough for a night. Depending on which unit you get it can be a little walk down the gravel path to your unit. Would be nice to have a fan in the room. The floor was still a little wet from the previous cleaning between clients. A fan would help dry it out.

We loved our cottage! It was so comfortable and clean and had just the amenities we needed, black out drapes, a nice shower, hot pot and refrigerator. Coffee and tea too! We walked a few feet over to the pizza restaurant which was fantastic and had pizza and some fish and chips( delicious) almond with a cold Icelandic beer. The arctic turns were nesting and quite aggressively defending there territory which made it charming. Wear a hat and wave your arms to ward them off if you come this time of year. They were harmless and it was fun to see.

This is a beautiful modern cabin with a lovely view of the water near a hiking trail.

A perfect pit-stop between Reykjavik and Akureyri. The cottage ( not the hotel), was exactly as advertised and an excellent location from which to explore the sights of Snaefellsnes. The one room cottage was cozy, functional and clean. On our second of three nights we were treated to an exceptional aurora show which we enjoyed from the front porch and out back. Dining options were limited by opening hours and simply required a little pre-planning. All in all a comfortable stay in a very scenic area of Iceland. Take a chance, get away from the crowds and build your adventure!

Great concept and lovely coastal location. The cottages are quiet and adequately sized for two people. However, the lighting was poor and there was no storage, except in the bathroom. Promising to find a kettle, fridge and microwave, but there was no further equipment except a couple of mugs and glasses. Fortunately we had our own plates and cutlery. Small amount of tea and coffee provided, but no soap in the bathroom. No attempt at cleaning or housekeeping; only the bin was emptied daily. These cottages have the potential to be extraordinary, if only more thought for the client experience was applied.

Nice set up with multiple cottages on one side of the road (further from the water) and the hotel on the other side (closer to the water). If view is important to you, then the hotel might have better access to water view as some of the cottages probably look at the buildings of the hotel. Luckily my cottage was at the east end (room 11) so my window had an unobstructed view of the water, and my door could see the hotel/water as well. Check in is at the Arnarstapi Center (where the restaurant is) and that’s also where you park your car. It’s a short 1-2 min walk to your cottage. But you are allowed to drive up to your cottage to unload luggage before parking your car a bit further. The inside is basic but lights were functional. Kettle, microwave, and mini fridge. We didn’t want to eat at the restaurant so bought a sandwich before coming here and microwaved it to heat it up. Would be nice if they provided basic utensils and plates. I had no problems with wifi as some others have had. Fast connection, could watch Netflix. It is true there is limited hot water (~5 min) but my partner and I just showered 1 hour apart at the end of the night. Both had hot water and with the expectation it would be short lived. It’s nearby to the trail by the waterfront including the stone bridge which was pretty. I would stay here again if I drove into the peninsula again.
