Buvik Sea Lodge

Our Buvik Sea Lodge experience was perfect. Espen Bystad offered all facilities we needed. He is the best hotel CEO I have ever met. Humanity is the foremost in his character. We could not forget his surprises. After completing our trip, we heard that Turkiye hit by two powerful earthquakes. Espen wrote to my husband and expressed condolences. It is very kind human behaviour.

We had a wonderful night here, it’s just as advertised, the views were spectacular and we could have stared out of those windows for years!! Hearing the waves beneath the lodge was perfect and we both slept very well. It was so relaxing, we cooked a nice meal and just enjoyed the peace and quiet. For any travellers, remember to bring all the food and drink you will need-including teas and coffees,milk etc. There are no shops nearby to walk to-however the owner did kindly offer to drive us if we hadn’t brought any food along!

Stayed here for three nights while on our Norway tour. Absolutely stunning place and beautiful location. Wake up to the fjord view in the morning and watch the northern lights at night, all from the balcony. The host Espen was amazing, he decorated the room ready for my arrival, (suprise 40th) which was a lovely touch and was very helpful in accommodating our needs, and pointed out things that were happening, (like reindeer outside the lodge) One of the most beautiful places we have stayed and we cannot recommend it enough! Important thoughts to consider, is 50 minute drive away from Tromsø, with no shops locally, so you need to take any provisions with you. Its a beautiful little gem....... Unfortunately we have heard that the owners are planning to flatten the lodge and build a hotel in it's place. I personally think this is real shame, as the lodge is a beautiful quirky stop, and a hotel would not have the same intimacy. (I hope this doesn't happen).

The apartment was clean, with a very comfortable living room and kitchen. The apartment had bedding, towels and the owner brought us drinking water separately. We had a conversation with the owner using Google Translate, which went well.

What a beautiful apartment and the views are incredible! The host is very helpful and we had great conversations with him. The sauna was really nice to enjoy on a rainy day. It's very close to Tromsø so it was a perfect place for us to stay for the night.

Wonderful place, sauna with absolutely stunning view right on the fjord. Nice, comfortable and cosy apartment. Thank you for the warm welcome and seeing to our needs. Very considerate and kind host!!!

Best place to stay in Tromso, the place is very cosy with a stunning sea view straight out from the living room. The host is amazing, welcomed us so warmly and made us feel home directly. We ll be back and i definitely recommend it
