Featuring a restaurant and cafe on site, Blabjorg Resort is in the fishing village of Borgarfjordur Eystri, 71 km from Egilsstadir. This property offers sea-view rooms with access to a fully equipped shared kitchen. WiFi and on-site parking are free. The town is a scenic 1-hour drive from the main town, and I can confidently say it's absolutely worth every minute. The breathtaking views along the way are unmatched, showcasing the stunning landscapes that Iceland is famous for. Upon arrival, the resort itself is a true gem—comfortable, clean, cozy, and incredibly welcoming. Every corner of the resort exudes warmth and charm, making it feel like a home away from home. The owner is exceptionally kind and caring, always ready to assist and ensure that guests have everything they need for a perfect stay. Their hospitality truly enhances the experience. We have had the best stay here, filled with relaxation and joy, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable getaway.
