Excellent spacious apartment. Plenty of towels and comfortable living space. Beautiful views over the fjord, we saw porpoise playing daily. Next door to a popular ice-cream palour. We walked from the airport and also into town easily, no public transport required. A 15 minute walk to the swimming baths and 30.min walk to the forest lagoon ( although some parts of the busy road didn't have paths so not really recommended!) Large tv with Netflix. We did hear a lot of noise upstairs but I'm sure they could hear us too, more the nature of the old house than the guests. Wasn't too keen on the doll in the pram but plenty of great decor never the less. A great stay.

The guesthouse had good facilities and the self check-in information was clear. Also, the communication with the owner was easy. The location was good, near the swimming pool, but there's a steep climb from the bus station. For drivers there is parking space next to the guesthouse.

We traveled around Iceland as a family (my husband, our daughter, and I) and spent one of the coziest, most memorable nights of our trip at Guesthouse Baegisa. 🏡 This is not just a guesthouse — it's a true family home with a separate cottage for guests, surrounded by a landscape that reminded us of the Alps. Everything is clean, peaceful, and thoughtfully arranged. The host is an incredibly kind and warm-hearted woman, and it was a pleasure to talk to her. In the morning, we were served a delicious homemade breakfast, made with care — a welcome break from standard hotel buffets. 🐑 The highlight for our daughter was a nearby farm where she was allowed to bottle-feed baby lambs. She squealed with joy — and so did we. One of the most heartwarming moments of our entire trip. 🚘 Great location, especially if you're traveling through the north. Parking is right by the house. If you're looking to experience authentic Icelandic hospitality, surrounded by silence, nature, and warmth — this is the place. No exaggeration — the best stay we had in Iceland. 🧦 And the selection of warm wool socks available for guests was the cutest thing I've ever seen in a hotel ❤️

Our cabin was the heaven we were hoping to find in Iceland. All the way up north, just next to Akureyri, the most northern big town in Iceland, yet far enough from it to enjoy the peace and quiet nature and the fjord. In the mornings we were woken up to the endless whiteness coming from the snow and the ice in the valley visible from our cabin. We enjoyed cooking in the shared kitchen in the main house, having the morning coffee in the hot tub outside on -15, and then taking off to our day trips anywhere. The proximity to Akureyri allowed us to enjoy some northern city vibes too, with the possibility to have drinks or a meal in one of the gorgeous places there! The slopes were also very close, just a short 10-12 drive from our cabin. The highlight was the nighttime: we were blessed to have the Aurora Borealis almost every night, and our stay was perfect for it: almost no light pollution at all, an outdoor hot tub that allowed us to enjoy the lights soaked in hot water with some drinks, silence everywhere, just wonderful and out of this world experience! We loved also our hosts, they were amazing and always available, thank you Andrea and Christian with your family, for everything! Highly recommend this place for a northern paradise vacation!

This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.
