What changes your plan

Choose the place before the room

Compare the exact cabin and its base: Hamnøy, Sakrisøy, Ballstad and the Kabelvåg coast are different places to spend the night.

Read the booked unit

Confirm bedrooms, cooking equipment, private facilities and any cleaning or linen charges for the exact product. A property-wide photograph does not define every unit.

Allow for meals and arrivals

Check shopping, restaurant opening and late arrival arrangements. Cabin kitchens and campsite facilities are different from hotel breakfast.

Connect the stay to your days

Keep the actual walk, boat departure and drive in mind when choosing between western Lofoten, Ballstad and the eastern islands. [2]
