The hotel was lovely but the walls are thin and the family next to us was very loud! The surroundings are serene and the staff was very friendly.

Adorable family owned hotel! The staffed and food was great! The walking trail to the beach took about 15 minutes one way and was definitely worth the walk. Overall great hotel in Iceland. High recommend.

We enjoyed our time here. We did find vegan options at the restaurant and breakfast. The staff alerted us that the northern lights were visible. It was breathtaking. We couldn’t believe how strong the aurora we saw was. Some of the other guests really played a role in our stay not being as pleasant as we had hoped. The rooms have no sound proofing. You can hear everything in the hallway. So many people were up early, shouting, children yelling + running. I am usually a heavy sleeper that can sleep through nonstop music and construction but this was something else. We would not stay here again due to the noise.

There were pros and cons to our stay. I will still give 10/10 because the dinner we had was amazing, the property and walk to the beach was stunning, and the staff was incredibly friendly. However, the rooms were smaller than the other stays in Iceland. It also got very hot at night and the window would only open an inch or so. No black out curtains but this wasn't a problem for us during our September stay. The bathroom sink would spill over if turned on full blast. These things were annoying and might deter some but we would probably stay again and recommend to family and friends!

We stayed at a different hotel/accommodation every night during our trip to the south coast of Iceland and this was our family’s favorite place to stay. The hotel is very peaceful and it was also nice to be able to open the window in our room to let in some cool air in July when we were there. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast -the food and coffee was very good. We would stay at Umi Hotel again.

Excellent family-owned luxury hotel. Very close to major sightseeing, but you feel as if you are in the middle of no where. Delicious tomato soup.
