Leknes Lodge Large house in the heart of Sunnmøre Alps
The house is beautiful and well kept. The view is amazing and it is a very peaceful area that goes through a beautiful valley not far from Hellesylt Many waterfalls and mountains are along the way.

Spacious apartment in scenic surroundings.
Kari was welcoming and friendly. Her place was lovely with lots of thoughtful touches and amenities that we appreciated. It was an easy drive into downtown Alesund and was a great base for our travels!

Charming Cabin near Norway's Fjords and Mountains
We had a wonderful weekend at the cabin. Enjoy the hot tub under the starry sky and northern lights.🥰 There was everything we needed. Nice service and glass in different varieties. Good sofa and space around the dining table. A perfect weekend!!

Lovely Villa by the sea
This is a special place! Best of everything Norway has to offer. Quaint island community, a perfect peaceful getaway with easy and scenic drives to Alesund (15mins) or day trips to Loen, Stryn, and Geiranger. Traveled with another family and all had our own spaces, with beautiful accommodations, well appointed & extremely clean. The neighbor kids immediately greeted our two children and fast friends were made. We would sit outside on the deck or pier and listen to sounds of kids laughing and having fun everywhere, pulling fish, snails or crabs out of the water over & over again or playing at the local playground. Not to mention the hospitality of the neighbors (homemade strawberry jam, an evening fishing trip, and some local crab claw snacks). And hiking….. the most spectacular views hiking to Storhornet and back down the ridge to the island school. Meanwhile, the adults enjoyed the endless views from nearly every spot outside or inside the house. Core memories made!

Fresh and modern sea houses.
Very cozy and beautiful place to get away from the city surmise and have a quiet time. Everything is very nice and cozy house interiors even stunning from the coziness. There are all the amenities and everything you could need in your stay. I really recommend it and I think I will not visit myself yet.

The house by the sea
We loved Silje’s place! The even try to explain the view not only when we pulled up to the house but throughout our entire stay just wouldn’t be the right words for how breathtaking it was. We were in awe of how amazing the home was, the windows that surrounded the panoramic view and the oasis we felt like we had stepped into. We met Silje upon return and she was thorough and simple-a lovely local and such a great first impression of this island. We even got to see glimpses of the Nothern Lights from the driveway!! Our only downfall would be that we were unaware of the tenant she had. We had been there for our first day and heard someone when we were downstairs-i reached out to find out if someone lived there or if there had been a TV left on and she had said a tenant lived there. We never even saw him, he was very quiet and never disturbed us. We just felt a little off at first not expecting that. Overall, we would stay here again and had an amazing experience!

Perfect base for hiking and fishing
Asbjorn is super personable and very helpful. The house is located in the beautiful surroundings with many excursion possibilities. House is huge with everything you need, but rather old-fashioned. However, it is still recommended.
