Kitchen had great options but we didn't use them. Location was nice, good amount of space in cabin. The bathroom and bedroom doors close tough. The shower was scalding hot and wouldnt seem to adjust cooler. I would stay again!

A nice place close to two waterfalls

It is a clean and comfortable place with a kitchen which is very convenient. The view is nice too. There was enough hot water for all of us (4 in all) to have showers. The staff was friendly and helpful.

A beautiful well equipped cottage in a stunning location. It was clean, easy to get into and the view of the mountains was breathtaking. 4 of us (2 adults and 2 kids) stayed there and it was small but well laid out so we felt like we had a good amount of space. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was nice to have coffee, tea and sugar (many places we stayed at on the trip didn’t so this was great to see). We would certainly stay here again and highly recommend this accommodation.

The views around the property were grand. It is an amazing property nestled at the base of some mountains. The best thing is the view of the mountain in the morning. Only two concerns; we came very late after hours and it was hard to get the access code by messaging and calling; and there was a used makeup sponge left in the bathroom.

Cabin was relatively newly built - very basic but practical. Servicable kitchen, beds were comfortable, heat worked,etc. Only complaint was the shower - it would run fine (bordering on scalding) for a while, then the hot water would abruptly cut out. Happened once every 1-2 minutes. There was no answer on the phone line we received from Expedia.

This place was much, much better than people rate it. It’s a cute little cabin -- clean and cozy. Parking was easy, and the surrounding area is beautiful. My only complaint was that the shower water temperature was hard to get just right. Otherwise, it was perfect

I understand its a cabin but there were no toiletries, there wasn’t even a lock on the bathroom door. The location is nice.. view of the mountain was awesome. We enjoyed sitting outside till late night. However, giving 4 star just because of the bathroom.

It's a cute little cabin. It surprised me how good it was. The construction seems new. It has 3 beds with comfortable clean blankets. The only suggestion is : the water is beige and has a bad smell.

Avoid this place

We did not receive an email with check inn details. Staf could not be reached, not by phone and no answer on email. The cottage is outdated and too cold inside. You can feel the wind inside! Good location but ridiculously overpriced and non-exisiting communication. No wifi available. Avoid this place!

Fire and ice cabin

When we got there the cabin was excessively hot to the point we had to open every door and window in the middle of a rainstorm. We discovered we had no knob on the heat to adjust it and it was unbearably hot. After multiple frustrating conversations with “maintenance” we convinced them to turn off the heat completely at which point it became bearable. The next morning the shower was either ice cold or hot as lava. No in between. The location was great. If the heat and water had any in between it would have been a great cabin. Overall pretty frustrating and not worth the cost.

The cottage was a perfect spot to stay just outside Vik. We spent 2 days on the South Coast and although we had a very short visit, the cottage was comfortable, clean and quiet.

Electrical outlets on floor?!?!?

Te cottage has been updated and is okay for one night. The electrical outlets are on the floor making it pretty difficult to make coffee or use the toaster. I had to put things on the floor and then put them up on the counter. Not sure if I would stay again or not.

The landlady or other manager did NOT appreciate me calling for check in instructions as per their first email. They eventually do email you a cottage and a door code. The cottage I had (#105) does have a hot plate, toaster, plates, cups -- but the outlets are all on the floor. The shower is very hit and miss - pulses cold, then warm. It is easy to accidentally scald yourself. Oh, we also ran out of toilet paper as well. You do overlook a pretty hillside, though.
