Stora Frögården

The apartment worked for our small family very well. Separate bedrooms is such a plus when traveling with an adult child. International travelers should be aware of a few things: there are no soaps, shampoo, etc included unless a previous guest leaves some behind. AND there are no linens / towels automatically included, they must be ordered ahead of time and paid separately. If you don’t know this and roll in late and the restaurant is closed you will be sleeping on beds with no linens. AND you are expected to clean the unit top to bottom unless you pay for an extra fee for cleaning. They say they will charge you for having to clean the unit if it does not meet their standards. When we checked in I found the toilet was dirty with dirty tissues in the bowl and toilet paper plastered to the top rim. So I don’t know how closely they inspect the units. The property is in very good condition, our unit had no mechanical or maintenance problems. There was a table and 4 chairs available on a private porch along with a grill. Plenty of parking for everyone. A very short walk down to the small beach. This property would be great for a relaxing vacation, the island has everything you need with groceries and shopping. We didn’t eat at the restaurant so i can’t comment on it, but they did have a wood fired oven for pizza. I would stay here again knowing what I know now, but definitely plan differently. Also having to pay for linens & cleaning ups the base price.

The apartment was very nice and spacious, and although it was a bit warm inside, the beautiful view more than made up for it. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything you need, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was large and even had a washing machine, which was very convenient. The view, especially during sunset, was stunning. I also really liked the outdoor area with the grill—it was a great spot to relax. I did miss the detail in the listing that bed linens and towels weren’t included, which was my fault. However, given the price, I had expected them to be provided, but it wasn’t a major issue. One small challenge was that when I arrived, there was no one on-site to greet me, and I hadn’t received the entire self-check-in instructions beforehand. Since I booked on short notice, I guess this might have contributed to the situation. The contact number provided on site didn’t work, and the voicemail was in Swedish only, which made it a bit difficult. The apartment also wasn’t labeled from the outside, so I had to guess which one it was. Similarly, the assigned parking space wasn’t easy to locate, but there were plenty of other spaces available, so it all worked out. With a few more detailed instructions or someone available on-site, it would have been perfect, but overall it was still a great stay!

Stora Frogarten is a reallynice place to getaway. Scenic, quiet with a ocean view and short walk to water. The cottage was spacious, clean and comfortable. Don’t forget to bring your own bedding.. we didn’t and got an extra charge. (didn’t read the fine print)

Sea view, clean. Very quiet.
