"A charming home in the middle of Leirvik, just 10 minutes from the Klaksvik ferry to Kalsoy. Do note that the tunnel from Leirvik to Klaksvik comes with an added cost. Lilja does a fantastic job of making your stay personal and the homemade breakfast each morning is a great way to start the day! As I was the only one staying (there are multiple rooms that could potentially be rented out at the same time), I particularly enjoyed our conversations about Faroese life, culture, faith and tourism. She is more than willing to help answer any questions that you have!"
"Loved my stay here! Although I traveled solo, there is sufficient room for a large family/group. The view of the fjord is extraordinary, and I found myself sitting and watching the beautiful wildlife for hours. The adjustable LED lighting in the kitchen/living room area is a very nice touch, and there are separate indirect heating thermostats to control different parts of the home. The houseboat is situated in a perfect location for driving out of Esturoy and visiting places like Gjógv, Slættaratindur, or many other places of interset for visitors. While nice and secluded, the nearest grocery or Rusan's is only ~16-20 minutes away."
"We had a wonderful few days at the boathouse. A great location, very clean and well stocked and lots to do near by. We loved our time there and would highly recommend. The only issue we had was with the TV that we couldn't get to work. we watched the view instead! "
"Me and my friend enjoyed our stay here, and would easily chose this hotel again for a second visit to Faroe. Conveniently located in the middle of the archipelago, in a town with at least a few dining options. Good parking opportunities (also a nearby overflow parking lot when it’s full in front of the hotel). The breakfast was good and the staff was excellent. Always friendly and helpful with whatever question we had. "
"This is a very unique and beautiful stay. It is a steep walk down a few steps to the boathouse and is a little tight with luggage. The washer and dryer are below the boathouse and accessible through a trapdoor and down a small ladder- it's fun to go down to. The shower is very small and you will be unable to stand upright in it- you just gotta sit to shower. Despite the few quirks, we absolutely loved this boathouse stay. It's a once in a life time experience and the views are astounding. We would spend the long nights sitting outside with binoculars looking at boats, yachts, birds, and every once in a while a fish jumping out of the water. Highly recommend for a very unique stay. "
