Self-Catering Accommodations in Dalvík

Just what we were looking for in booking a stay in Dalvik last minute! The host was accommodating in shoveling out snow and getting the property ready on the fly. We appreciated most the beautiful, north-facing panoramic views that allowed us to catch the Northern Lights!

The old farmhouse was quaint and delightful! I enjoyed the hot tub and a nice sauna as well. The farmhouse is quite well equipped with Bluetooth audio a full kitchen, kettle and coffee maker. My stay was very comfortable. I would book again 100%! I must also share that the communication from the owner Barnji was fantastic. He is an engaging fellow and I regret that I didn’t have more time to chat before my scheduled whale watch on departure day.

House was clean and modern. Perfect location from the ferry dock and town. We were able to walk to the grocery store and whale watching tour. Parking was next door. Washer and dryer in the house.

The apartment was very cozy, clean and well equipped. The host family were exceptionally helpful and welcoming. The location is perfect, within short walking distance of the harbor, grocery store, playground and pool. Very good value for a reasonable price

Amazing place. If you want to experience what it would be like to camp without actually renting a camper van, this is it! The place is located in a very peaceful area, almost mesmerizing. The camper van was very clean, the beds are comfortable, and a small heating unit is present should you get cold. There is a small fridge, and also a small stove with all necessary equipment to prepare a meal. You have a small bathroom inside the camper, so you don't have to worry about that. The shower hose is outside the camper van. There is also a tub which can be filled with hot water on request. Sitting inside the hot water and looking at the glorious mountains, while listening to the singing of birds with a glass of good drink was phenomenal. :D It is also a very quiet area, so it is like a small oasis of peacefulness, perfect to achieve mindfulness. It is also very close to Dalvík, which has a ferry going to the island Grimsey, which is a must see! There are some beer baths close by (you read that right) and regular hot baths if you want to experience more of that. Please note there is also a small farm not far away, which sells its own diary products and various jams, and oh my god, are things delicious! We bought several items and all of them were so good, especially the stinky cheese! :D the place is a half an hour away from Akureyri and about half an hour away from Olafsfjordur, which is a small town, but the view is incredible, definitely worth a visit. I mean, this place is so much more. There is also a BBQ just next to the camper van, so you can enjoy some nicely grilled meat while enjoying the spectacular view. The host was incredibly nice and flexible! If you want to stay somewhere outside of normal mortar and brick hotels, this is a place to go.
