Property was beautiful. There is a picturesque waterfall just behind the building. Had some hiking trails there as well. Room was clean and modern and nicely furnished. The breakfast buffet was wonderful. We had dinner there one night and the food was fabulous. Staff was extremely courteous and helpful. The property was convenient for our trip to Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon as well.

Gorgeous property. Backs up to mountains and a waterfall. This was the most comfortable bed during our trip. We spent some time in the hot tub which was outdoors and felt glorious. The food was not as good as other reviewers described and we were disappointed with. Overall though it was a wonderful stay and we would stay again.
