6/10 Okay
"Staff more concerned with own cellphones than customers. Food and drinks/cocktails usually good at Vestlia, however this time the food was well below average and the cocktails, 4 out of 4, were terrible. Room missing basics like a way to make coffee and bathrobes which you expect at a «resort». "

What beach activities should we do in Geilo?
The best area to stay in Geilo to enjoy beach activities is around the Ustedalsfjorden lake, particularly near Geilo Beach.

Geilo Beach is a well-maintained spot on the eastern shore of Ustedalsfjorden, just a short walk or drive from the centre of Geilo. It's known for its clear waters and sandy shoreline, offering easy access for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying the lakeside scenery. You'll find amenities like changing rooms and picnic areas nearby, making it convenient for a day out.

Families will find this area particularly appealing. The shallow entry into the lake makes it suitable for children to play in the water, and there's often a playground close by. The flat paths around the lake are also excellent for prams or leisurely strolls.

Couples looking for a relaxing day will also appreciate Geilo Beach. You can rent kayaks or paddleboards to explore the lake, or simply unwind on the sand with a good book.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Geilo as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Geilo for you.
