“A cozy lodge on an island where you may be able to see the northern lights.”
+It was a clean, cozy lodge with character. I loved those designer lamp and light! Nina and Bjørn were attentive and always answered my questions right away.
−Since it was Easter and the weather being rather harsh, we ended up staying in and cooking at the lodge quite a bit. It would have been nice to have a microwave oven, a freezer, an ironing board and a TV.

“A very special place”
+Bjørn was the perfect host, and was around to greet us despite our flight being delayed. The property is in a fantastic location , a short drive from the airport/city centre, with supermarkets nearby. The property itself is so nice, very clean, warm , and has all the amenities you need. very comfy beds. the views from it are spectacular. we visited in January and were lucky enough to see the northern lights on multiple occasions , either on a snowy walk down the road , or even in bed out the window! Bjørn was very helpful on recommendations when we wanted to take a scenic drive to Sommerøy and told us about and amazing cafe to visit. we feel very lucky to have spent 4 nights here, it really is one of the best accommodations we have stayed in. thankyou ☺️

“Pure magic & complete luxury”
+Every single thing was simply spectacular. The accommodation was utterly spotless, the quality of everything from the fittings, to the beds, to all equipment in the kitchen, was outstanding. Nina and Bjorn were wonderful and the scenery was honestly magical I cannot recommend this property enough. We loved our special time at Hakoya Lodge!
−I can’t think of anything!

“Great stay, highly recommended.”
+Great lodge and location, very nice welcome. Very comfortable beds and living area decorated with very nice taste.
−Would be more comfy to have a second small 2 seats sofa if we are more than 2 persons to replace the long seat that has no back support.

“Would recommend staying here for sure!”
+Bjorn was absolutely wonderful. The space was immaculate. When I couldn't figure out how to turn on the fireplace he came to help. He refilled the wood in the firepit outside every night. Bjorn was an incredible host and this is our favorite place my wife and I have ever stayed.
−Not much. Everything was wonderful.

“Perfect apartment to enjoy the northern lights!”
+EVERYTHING! Best apartment of booking.com EVER! It has all the amenities and utilities you could possibly need, the kitchen is very modern and the WiFi is super fast. The surroundings are beautiful and we got to see the incredible northern lights 3 nights out of 4! Also if you don’t want to rent a car, you can walk about 15-20 min and you can take a bus that leaves you in Tromsø. The closest grocery shop is also a bit more than 30 min on foot. And the hosts, Bjørn and Nina, couldn’t be any more lovely or welcoming, they even gave us fresh eggs from their chickens and lent us their snow shoes!!! Thanks again for everything! :)
−I couldn’t name a single thing.
