"This place is exactly in the middle of the tundra surrounded by very stunning landscapes and mountains. The atmosphere is absolutely magnificent. This actually is a whole camp with a restaurant and a café and a bar with all the infrastructure; and the hostel itself is very pleasant and nice and clean and cosy; I will definitely come back :)"

"The best apartment I visited this year. Everything is brand new, extremely well thought out, and beautifully executed. The design is outstanding, the space is generous, and everything is very comfortable and practical. Located in a great area. I have absolutely no complaints — for the first time, I’m giving a 10 out of 10."

"We moved to the apartment instead of the caravan, so the review is for that instead. The apartment was great. In fact, the entire town is wonderful, and a stay here is magical. What made it extra special is Thomas. He takes fabulous care of his guests, he is fun and friendly, and is one of the best hosts we've ever had. He gave us tips for the island and a level of assistance like I've never seen before. We met his wife only briefly, but she was lovely as well. If you're looking for somewhere to stay on the island, look no further!"
