Last verified 16 September 2026

Apartment in Innerfjorden, near Ramberg

Skjelfjord is the inlet on the south side of Flakstadøya, and this place sits at Vestersia 30 on its western shore, 4.6 km from Ramberg in a straight line. Booking.com files it under apartments and rates it four tiles, but the unit is detached and let whole, and the listing's own name calls it a cabin.

Seventy-five square metres hold three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an additional toilet listed separately. A fireplace, electric blankets and a drying rack say something about the climate; a patio with a sea view, outdoor furniture and an outdoor dining area say something about the summer. The kitchen has an oven, stovetop, microwave, fridge, kettle, coffee machine and kitchenware, with a washing machine beside it.

Pets are one of the few things here that are not simply refused: they are taken on request, and charges may apply.

Why stay here

Two bathrooms and an extra toilet for a party of five, a fireplace to dry out beside, and a quiet fjord shore 4.6 km from Ramberg's beach. Ten guests have scored it 8.5 out of 10, and check-out runs as late as 13:00.

Who it’s for

  • Families

Families and mixed groups — Booking.com marks it as having family rooms — and dog owners, since pets can be requested. Walkers will appreciate the drying rack, the electric blankets and the late check-out.

Things to consider

The bed panel is hard to reconcile with the occupancy: one bedroom is listed with three double beds and a bunk bed and a cap of seven people, while the unit as a whole is sold for five. Confirm the sleeping arrangements before booking a large party. Upper floors are reached by stairs only. Check-in is from 15:00 with your arrival time given ahead, and check-out is between 12:00 and 13:00. Children from the age of four are charged at the adult rate, no cot or extra bed can be added, and pets carry a possible charge.
