Peaceful small town with rich and fascinating history, namely it's fishing industry and near annihilation by a volcano. I recommend hiking over and to the top of the volcano and visiting the volcano museum.

The ferry to get to the island was immaculately clean and ran on time both ways. While a smaller boat for such open seas, the sailing was still good and not too rough! The island itself was picturesque and I wish I could have stayed longer.

Such a beautiful island! The landscape is absolutely unreal.
Such a beautiful island! The landscape is absolutely unreal. Hiking the volcano and then visiting the museum is a must. We saw puffins on the outlook just past the golf course! (ie didn't need to take the bus tour to the southern tip of the island to see them). Vigtin bakery is delicious, as well as Tanginn for dinner. Check out Brothers Brewery for a good drink! Super easy to get around on foot, and the ferry was perfect! A must see in Iceland!

Vestmanneayar is a beautiful, self-contained fishing village...
Vestmanneayar is a beautiful, self-contained fishing village that also caters nicely to tourists. It is located on the island of Heimaey. Getting there is challenging but well worth it. The best way is to rent a car in Reykjavik and drive 2 hours to Landeyjahofn on the south coast. Leave the car there (I found no need for a car on the island) and take the ferry out to the island. Two or three days is sufficient to see everything on Heimaey. Bike rental, e-scooter and hiking are the best ways to get around. I was able to bike the length of the island with several stops in about 2 hours. It's hilly- what do you expect it's a volcano. Great opportunities to view wild life and spend time outside. The views cannot be beat. Food is excellent but (like the rest of Iceland) a bit expensive. The public pool/ hot tubs are a great way to end a physically taxing day.

What a beautiful island!
What a beautiful island! We took the tour with EyjaTours and it was so informative. The island holds so much rich history, and the scenery is gorgeous. We were able to see the puffins, as well as learn about volcanoes.

As soon as we arrived by ferry, we went hiking, then dinner at Gott, then puffin watching. Unfortunately we were not in the right place to see the true puffin colony (keep going up that road!) but we enjoyed what we did get to see.
Very warm and welcoming with excellent self checkin instructions. The room was clean and modern and perfectly comfortable for our two night visit to Heimaey. A highlight for this family
of 4 on the road for over a week already was the complimentary access to a washing machine and dryer. Cannot empathise enough how appreciated that was and I’m sure others do as well. We would definitely recommend staying here to small families and we will stay again ourselves.
Short walk from the ferry. Centrally located to restaurants and activities. We left our car at the Landeyjahofn ferry parking lot and certainly didn’t need it on the island. We had a triple room for the two of us. Room had a couch, desk counter, and two beds Very spacious. Shower was good. Breakfast was great. Loved the porridge oatmeal. Staff was helpful and friendly. So glad we picked this guesthouse.
The cottage was tiny but spotlessly clean and the small space was very well organised. The kitchenette had everything we needed to cook a simple meal. The location was quiet and lovely, a bit outside the town with a view over the ocean and even a couple of very friendly horses in a fence right outside our door. I would love to stay at Ofanleiti again next time I visit Vestmannaeyjar.
I have stayed in one of these properties before and was happy to return. The location is excellent and the surrounding scenery stunning. For a short stay these properties are ideal. I would be happy to use them again. It's hard to imagine a more beautiful place to stay on Vestmannaeyjar and yet we were still close enough to the centre to be able to walk to restaurants/bars etc.
Nothing really. It was a quick one night stop for us, we spent minimal amount of time in the room, quite deliberately. The room for functional enough, but due to accommodation problems in Iceland, the hotel can get away with providing minimal value for a quite a lot of money, in any other normal
market it would go out of business in a month.
This little apartment is adorable! Has a beautiful view of the islands surrounding Heimaey as well :) We received messages from the host that were very welcoming and kind, they were happy to help with anything we could have needed. We only stayed one night, but would have loved to stay longer if we could have!
I booked the hostel with mixed feelings because of the very different reviews. Looking back I need to say that I definitely do not share the bad ones. Instead I would say that the accommodation is a typical good hostel and as long as you do not expect hotel services you will be fine there.
Excellent location right next to ferry terminal and within 2 minutes walk of all the shops, restaurants and tour companies. Stunning views of the harbour and surrounding volcanoes. Really comfortable beds and beautifully furnished apartment. Excellent value for money.
I walked here from the ferry- not far from the "downtown" area. So lovely and quiet, even in high season. Facilities were clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Cottages are unbelievably cute, nestled in a hillside.
The location was not far from the ferry landing. It was right in town so made walking to places very convenient. We were able to check ourselves in so that was perfect for us to check in when we were ready.
We stayed in the red cottage for one night while visiting
Vestmannaeyjar. The weather was perfect and the views were stunning. The bed was very comfortable and it is just so peaceful.
clean and convenient
the best towels I have ever used

location near the harbour and restaurants
check-in with the code
The house is very well located. It was super easy to get to a supermarket, restaurants, port and so on. The self-check-in and check-out was pretty smooth too.
It was a fun thought. It looked cool. Staff was quick to respond with questions - as they are all off site. Close to marina & a lot of cute shops/restaurants.
