Rauðsdalur - Brjanslaekur

A serene coastal location with nice wooden rooms. I took a dive in the ocean, and then enjoyed a waterfall massage next to the guesthouse. I feel refreshed now and ready to enjoy dinner at a local (the only?) restaurant. Be aware the closest supermarket is 50 km away! In short an excellent stay!

Super onderkomen! Eerste huis wat ik echt schoon vindt na deze twee weken op het eiland! Gedeelde keuken en badkamer en alles is er! Bedden zijn ook top. De kleine man vond de schapen leuk en mocht zelfs een rondje met de quad meerijden en naar de koeien kijken.

This guesthouse sits in the most beautiful, tranquil setting overlooking the sea while protected by hills behind where waterfalls and sheep dot the landscape around the home.

Check in was easy and fast. There is front end staff in reception and we were provided much information about the surrounding area. There are 2 thermal pools nearby and abundant beachfront to explore. Tide was low on our afternoon arrival and perfect for beach combing.

The room was the smallest we have seen at any guesthouse thus far but the knotty pine gave everything a cozy feel. There are a good number of rooms here, but also 5 small bathrooms so we had accessibility as needed. There is a comfortable shared kitchen which was quite busy in the morning and a common space for lounging if desired. Ample parking as with each of our rented spaces in Iceland.

Note that access to food is limited. If you intend to prepare food arrive prepared. Otherwise the Flokalundur Restaurant is about 15 minutes drive and does serve dinner.

Clean, spacious and comfortable room. The kitchen was well equipped. We could enjoy beautiful ocean views from a comfy living area. We had been staying in smaller facilities but Rauðsdalur was pretty big. Many families/couples were staying. It has multiple shower rooms and we did not have to wait.

With self-check-in, I do not think I met a staff.

Nice place, great host. We was exhausted from a midnight flight and driving up. Ask to ck in early and had quick response.
The front overlooks the water and was gorgeous
Close to two nice springs
Take food with you before you get into the west fjords to eat and snack on!

Прекрасный хостел с шикарным видом из номера. Номер мы взяли попросторнее - всего, что было в номере было более чем достаточно для комфортного отдыха. В комнате очень тепло. Кухня просторная со всеми необходимыми принадлежностями. Так же есть общие кофе, чай, сахар и возможно что-то еще (я не интересовалась). Особенно порадовало, что кухня не закрывается на ночь, как в большинстве других хостелов, а доступна круглосуточно. Заселиться так же можно в любое время через самостоятельный чек ин - все инструкции нам прислали заранее, никаких проблем не возникло. У собственников хостела есть собака-пастух, овцы, козы и коровы, что придает своей особой атмосферы этому месту. Все очень понравилось, советую этот хостел. Тем более стоимость очень и очень приятная.

Schönes Gästehaus direkt am Meer gelegen.

Sehr nette Gastgeber und sauberes Ambiente.

Breathtaking location, very remote but worth the drive. Friendly staff and easy going check-in. Bring enough food, the closest supermarket/restaurant is at least one hour driving.
