Arne is a great, friendly and helpful host! We loved spending time with him just talking about Norway, fish, local customs, nature, anything. Arne is also a great local guide (mountain hiking, fishing, etc.) with detailed knowledge of the area.

- The vibe of the lodge was perfect. When we arrived we were told the lodge was supposed to feel like a home away from home and it was exactly that. Cosy and comfortable. We felt very relaxed but at the same time the staff's attention to detail and hospitality was amazing. We loved chilling in the lounge area where the fire was always on, chilled music playing and the perfect ambience. - The staff, in particular Oliver, Alton and Romero made our stay incredible. The staff were very attentive, knowledgable, friendly and professional. Nothing was too much trouble. - The food was amazing. 5* quality food every evening. The chef checked regularly if we liked the food and came to the table to chat with us each evening about the food. We loved everything but for example for other guests he went out of his way to make something that more suited their tastes. - The activities. We did husky sledding, whale watching and the northern lights tour. They were all excellent and well organised. We didn't get to see the northern lights on our tour due to heavy cloud coverage but the tour guide still went out of his way to try and make the excursion enjoyable. Luckily we had seen the northern lights the previous night sat in the hot tub. They have a full equipment room with everything you need for the excursions including snow suits, snow boots, hats, gloves etc. They will make sure you are well equipped for whatever activity you have booked. - Our room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. I would 100% book this trip again and would recommend this lodge to everyone.

View from windows to the bay was nice.

We spend wonderful time in one if the most beautiful and peaceful place we have been. October was great time to visit and we saw colorful nature and awesome northern lights. Hiking route to Arontind start from the back yard. Breakfast and dinners were delicious local food. Room and restaurant were perfect and there were all you need. We definitely come back some day.

The location was absolutely briliant by the fjord! The sunsets were nice to see in the evenings and in the morning it was good to enjoy breakfast in the magnificent scenery. The accommodation was really clean, the beds were made and the kitchen equipment was also first class. Communication with the owners was also easy. The nearest store is about 10km from the place you're staying. A strong recommendation for this place to stay if you've been thinking about a trip in this direction.
