I very much appreciated how well Gummi listened to what we wanted to experience on this trip - the itinerary in terms of what we got to see and what we got to do was in complete alignment with my hopes - and was better than anything I could have planned myself because of the local knowledge and expertise.
The work Summer did with all the reservations and with finding a new (exceptional) accommodation on the one day road conditions prevented us from getting to our original destination was fast and really well considered.
Grateful for all that these two did to make our trip something we will look back on as a highlight of our lives is so deeply appreciated
Hotel Reviews
Clean and in a good location to walk to everything with easy parking nearby. Appreciated that they let us check in early
Very comfortable rooms (beds were very nice) and great location right next to the public swimming pool (highly recommend going for a dip at night!)
This was my favourite hotel of the trip - beautiful interior, super comfortable beds, including a massive pillow for reading in bed.
Beautiful spot to stop for a couple of days. The restaurant has great food. The person at the front desk called the national transportation service to check on road conditions for us (above and beyond!). And we saw the northern lights while staying here.
Activity Reviews
Favourite hot spring visit of the trip - beautiful view at sunset, great sauna and cold plunge, yummy smoothie, relaxed atmosphere, and a really nice extra warm hot spring area.
Seven Step ritual was lovely, the entrance to the pools was stunning, and the view was beautiful. I found it very crowded with many people taking photos and there were a lot of cups left lying around which detracted from being able to relax. The sauna was amazing and I really wish we’d been able to go into it more than once.
Really enjoyed being able to jump in the lake and then move right into the hot tubs. The rain walk outside the steam room was highly refreshing - really appreciated the different temperatures one could move between and experience.
Truly beautiful view. I literally soaked and stared across the sea for hours! Wish there had been a sauna (not just a steam room) and a cold plunge, but to just relax and absorb the view was very relaxing.
