Lofoten Red Villa

Those big windows with amazing views are something special! The property is spacious and clean. Location is decent - it's not the heart of the Lofotens, but it's Lofotens and if you have a car it won't be a problem reaching other places. The host was very helpful and shipped item I had forgotten by mail. Price is very affordable for such big house in Lofoten.

Initially, I was quite pissed, that we were requested extra charge for bed linens. But after 1 week in Norway, I understood it's quite a standard there to request extra charges for bed linens, towels and cleaning. Still, for me this is wild... I value transparency and not seeing the final cost at the moment of booking is something which highly disturbs me. So this is a critique not of the property but of the country :)

The huge floor-to-ceiling windows can be nice if you are lucky enough to spot the northern lights. the kitchen is not perfect but good enough for simple meals.

The host was probably on vacation when we arrived. We were charged 200 nok for three sets of sheets, which were originally priced at 300 nok but the host gave us a discount. Well indeed you can find the "you have to pay for your sheets" notice on the booking page, but it's pretty weird to pay to use bedsheets, which all except for this accommodation I have been to charge. Feels a bit like a rip-off when I was told to pay for them.

Huge house just down a fjord with a great view from the living room! The house was heated on arrival, there was a porch under which we could park (which was very nice during the snowstorm outside) and they even removed the snow from the driveway so that we could leave the property.

Kitchen and bathroom could be refreshed a bit. The house was a little bit hard to find under the snow, GPS coordinates would be useful. The rest was perfect

Such a huge and beautiful property for so cheap. I enjoyed my stay, was lucky to see the Northern Lights just in the window. The way to the property was cleared from snow. There was a covered parking place. There are so many tracking trails around, the owners also provided me with snowshoes and sticks. I was lucky to order a lobster, but of course for additional cost. As to the house itself, there was everything I needed, even more. It has a soul. Thanks for that many candles and candelabras. Was able to use the fireplace, they provide you with wood but for additional cost. There is also a sauna for extra money.

Best offer for such little money. 10/10 for this. perfect place. There were mountains and a fjord all around us from the window. magical place. there was a desire to stay longer. the view is gorgeous from the windows. It's nice to stay in such a Norwegian house. good owner of the house

great location. nice host
