Arnarstapi Cottages is located in Arnarstapi, Snæfellsbær. The property also has a terrace. Each room is fitted with a patio with views of the mountain.

Easy self check-in. Small but comfortable rooms. Very clean. Warm water is (as communicated) restricted as it is heated by a boiler system. However: while the little houses look beautiful on pictures, they don’t quite do the impression justice. The big windows and view open out to the road and walkway between the separate huts, so people walk by the bedroom frequently. If you value privacy, you will be prompted to close the curtains as soon as it gets darker. We were lucky to have one of the last houses in the row, so we did not have another house right in front of us. Most of the other huts are not as lucky. There is no view of the mountain from inside the rooms. Also, be aware while there is a small refrigerator, a water kettle and a microwave, there is no silverware or dishes provided. The whole setup is very simple. However, the location in Arnastapi is beautiful. There are several gorgeous sights to see in the area. So if you are looking for a place to sleep for day activities, this place is nice. We just imagined it a little differently than it actually was.

Featuring mountain views, Lysuholl in Snæfellsbær features accommodation, a garden, a bar and a shared lounge. There is an in-house restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available.

Spectacular view of mountains, friendly owner- they’ve been running this business through generations. Newly renovated and very modern looking. Very cosy and not far from Kirkjufell. Celebrated Christmas dinner with owner and family and absolutely loved how welcoming everyone was. Oh, and food was very delicious!! Highly recommend!! Love everything about this place.

    We used this guesthouse as our first night of the vacation. It is well equiped, if you are familiar with thos hostel style. Sleeping rooms are private, but everything else is shared. The kitchen had everything and because we and another couple had exclusively the area, everything went well. If it is fully booked, I can imagine this to be more crowded. The area is nice and has fantistic waterfall within short distance walking range. Also the swimming pool is highly recommended
