Pros:

Las carreteras estaban cortadas y hacía muy mal tiempo y nos dejaron cancelar la reserva ese mismo día devolviéndonos el importe. Sin duda si vuelvo a Islandia mi elección sería Magma.

Amazing all round and loved our stay there.
Pros:

The cabin rooms were exceptional with amazing views. They were extremely clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed.

Cons:

There was a bit of a wait to get seated for breakfast as they didn't have quite enough tables in the restaurant and breakfast was a little limited in choice of options.
