Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    Great, quiet location with fantastic views. A little drive from the main roads, but that´s perfectly to our liking. Very clean and spacious room, comfortable beds including the sofabed. Also the little terrace on the seaside was perfect for a morning coffee or latenight stargazing :)

You have to try breakfast - it's deliciuious! Home made warm bread, pancakes or cake, freshly cooked eggs, good quality cheese and ham, jam - everything served sooo nicely 🩷

    This Hotel's location is a gem if you want to see the Northern Lights. We booked it because we wanted to be somewhere dark and try to see them, which we managed to do on the only night we were there. We couldn't believe our luck! The ocean views all around are gorgeous as well, both by day and night. Our room was very clean and quite modern, with a fresh and clean toilet as well. Check-in went smoothly even though there was no staff on sight, since they simply left the key inside and we could arrive whenever we wanted.

    We only stayed at the Hlid fishing village for one night and unfortunately arrived in the dark and left in the middle of a crazy storm so we didn't get to make the most of it. However the room was lovely, large and had windows on both sides, so you could make the most of the views to sea. It was very clean, and offered everything you need.
