The Guesthouse at Dynjandi Falls
About this stay
The road into this stretch of Arnarfjörður narrows well before the turn for Hrafnseyri, and the guesthouse announces itself with a private beach area running along the water, something few properties this far into the West Fjords can offer. Balcony and terrace rooms look out over sea and mountain, so the view is available without leaving the building, though the beach itself is worth the short walk down. Family rooms keep things simple with parquet floors and shared bathrooms rather than hotel-style suites, and a shared kitchen and lounge give guests a place to cook once the evening sets in, since dining options thin out fast this far along the fjord. Free private parking removes one more thing to plan around. Dynjandi Falls sits within reach for a short excursion, giving the stay a second landmark beyond the water outside the window, and Ísafjörður Airport is roughly 68 km away by a fjord road worth allowing extra time for.

Our take
This suits travellers who want a beachfront base deep in the West Fjords, with a private stretch of Arnarfjörður and Dynjandi Falls both within reach. Families and couples get the most from the balcony and terrace rooms, and anyone cooking their own meals will use the shared kitchen more than once given the village's limited dining. Travellers wanting private bathrooms or a wide choice of nearby restaurants should look toward a larger West Fjords town instead, since both stay basic here by design.
Why we love it
- Direct access to a private beach on Arnarfjörður
- Sea and mountain views from balcony rooms
- Shared kitchen for cooking this far into the West Fjords
- Free private parking included
Why guests love itI would pick this guesthouse for families who want the shoreline on the doorstep: it has direct access to a private beach on Arnarfjörður, with sea and mountain views from the terrace and balcony rooms. Family rooms have parquet floors and shared bathrooms, and the shared kitchen matters this far into the West Fjords, where places to eat thin out quickly. Free private parking helps, and Dynjandi Falls is close enough for a short outing between meals.
