The place is lovely and has pretty much everything you will need. The bathroom is spacious. Its easy to find. It was smelling good.

The quality of the fitting sheets is very low, the other sheets were good. The curtains allow a lot of light to get inside the room. Wifi is not the best but that was not a problem for us. I would suggest not to leave the heating on before the guests arrive, specially in the summer. It was super hot inside and the only way to cool down was opening the windows and the room was infested by little flies (very common in iceland in this time of the it).

Beautiful location and a great place to stay for a night! We were traveling with 2 adults, 2 children. The cabin was spotless, had listed amenities, and I especially enjoyed the sitting areas at the top of the hill to look at the water or mountains. You could tell the owners put a lot of thought and time into these cabins to make you feel right at home!

We had what I assume was unusually warm weather in July and the cabins got really hot! Unfortunately, we couldn't use the A/C and the bugs were also bad so it wasn't recommended to open the windows.

We stayed in the split cabin and it was very cute. The bed is incredibly comfy with stunning views out the window. It was cloudy the two nights we stayed with low aurora activity so no luck for us. It was also close to town, but not so close that the light pollution would've ruined aurora views. The shower was also very nice with a large space. It was close to some amazing spots to visit along route 1 and about an hour from Diamond Beach.

I would've liked better directions with the stove to maybe include pictures. I accidentally hit the lock button and it took us a while to figure out how to unlock it. Which was just holding the locking button again, but the directions mentioned a key button so I wasn't sure what that was. Other than me not knowing how to use an induction stovetop everything was great

We got to see Northern Lights on our 2nd night here and thankful for that coz was hoping for that when we plan our holiday to visit 🇮🇸 in December. Cottage is cozy and warm and bed is comfortable to sleep thru the night despite we experiencing windstorm when we checked in on our first night. Kitchen is small and basic for us to cook simple dinner. Takes abt an hour drive to Diamond Beach & Jokulsarlon for our ice cave tour. Hofn town is abt 5mins drive and there is N1 petrol kiosk and Netto supermarket to grab groceries. We didn’t visit any restaurant there as we plan to cook lunch and dinner. Vestrahorn/Stokksnes it takes abt 18mins drive from cottage. Definitely return here when we planned to visit 🇮🇸 during the midnight sun.

Nothing I could think of!

We liked the Cabin . It’s was right outside the cute town of Hofn . The o it think we did not realize is that when sun comes out and the temperatures warm up there are lot of flies that get into the house if the windows or doors are open . Again since we have been in Iceland it’s always been cold and rainy . So nothing against the place . I would definitely come Back !! Thank you

Internet service was not great !! It did not load anything !!

10/10 at least. Location is absurdly beautiful - on a lonely hill with view almost to Vestrahorn and other hills. It is clean, warm, cosy, with big windows and view to the hills. You have everything you need. Coffee Machine - there is one and it works with coffee pads (they are provided). Hofn is just 4min away with car, so it is easy for supplying. Vestrahorn is just 10-15 mins with the car

We were lucky enough to catch the aurora during the one night we stayed there. It was great that we didn't have to travel out to see the aurora, just had to watch from the windows or come out to the porch to capture the lights.

There was quite a few rules governing the place, probably to keep maintenance costs low, but if you didn't need to use the dining ware there's not much issue.

Spacey enough for 2 people Location being away from the city lights, amazing auroras were visible all night Kitchen was equipped with all the necessary things to cook

As it was requested to wash the dishes before leaving, I suggest to install a dishwasher as it’s not very enjoyable while you pay a considerable amount of money Hair dryer should be upgraded as it was very weak

Check-in was simple ie collect keys from a letterbox outside with a combination code, hence it accorded flexibility in arrival time. This was especially helpful in Iceland where drive timings can be hard to predict due to sudden inclement weather. The little hill near the cabins had chairs and benches for aurora and stars viewing. Fortunately, we saw a strong aurora on the day we stayed at the cabins and managed to snap a few good photos!

Kitchen exhaust hood does not absorb smells and grease well, hence the whole house and our clothes, bags etc smelt of food the entire time there and even for several days after we left the cabin! Do note that even though the cabins are situated in a relatively remote area, they are also surrounded by roads, hence the intermittent light pollution from passing cars can be an impediment to night-sky photography - you will require some patience and a few retakes.

Our stay at the Aurora Cabins was fantastic! We loved it there. The views were incredible, and it was super easy to find. Clean, comfortable, and convenient. There are two Adirondack chairs on a hill next to the cabins, and even further up the hill, there is a bench... It's very serene to sit watching the view from those spots. They even had a welcome packet with instructions to aid their guests. I would definitely recommend staying here!

We had no issues.
