Would not recommend. The hut is in a good location with easy access to Grindavik attractions, a nice sea view and easy to find.
However, a number of things in the room were broken - the locks didn’t work, one door was hanging off the hinges and the heating was stuck on 28 degrees. Moreover, there is a lot of movement outside the accommodation meaning there is minimal privacy. On the whole it was not worth the steep cost.

Booked this place for two nights from booking.com - beautiful view of the harbour. About 10 cottages on the property, nicely spaced you don’t feel I top of the next person. Free parking lot with 10 spaces and a paved trail to the cottages (very short distance). Cottages comes with windows that can be opened and black shades to block the midnight sun. Bed fit two comfortably. Walk-in shower. Limited spaces for suitcases, need to keep folded until ready to use. Kitchen with hot plate and pots to use. Mini fridge and toaster.
Locally there is food (11am-5pm roughly) and a gas station. Great location for day trips to different hiking sites.

It was just okay for a one-night stay and would really only suit two people. The space felt extremely cramped for our family of four (2 adults and 2 kids). Wouldn’t recommend for more than a short stopover or for larger groups.

Harbour View Cottages exceeded all expectations! The views were breathtaking, the cottage was cozy, spotless, and well-equipped, and the peaceful setting made for a perfect getaway. The hosts were welcoming and attentive. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Iceland!

The rooms are single bedroom apartment blocks that overlook the harbour. We've come at the end of March and it's very quiet. There is a sesmic activity alert, which has been in place for the last week, but people are still coming and going.

Great place to stay, have everything you need (tea, coffee, kitchen utensils, shower gel, shampoos, towels, hair dryer). Beautiful view in front. Great location and many beautiful places to see around. Excellent service.

Not bad.. views could have been better. Way too expensive for what you get

I must warn anyone considering booking this hotel to think twice. This is located in a nearly abandoned town with no operating shops or facilities nearby apart from this property. If you’re not driving, getting here from Reykjavik is extremely difficult. The host has a terrible attitude and refused to issue a refund, not even a partial one, despite us explaining the situation. We ended up having to spend extra money booking another hotel. This caused significant disruption to our trip. The booking platform provided no warning whatsoever about how inconvenient this location is, making it extremely unfriendly for international travellers. I have every reason to believe that many guests may be misled by the images displayed on the booking page.
