    The staff was really very friendly. It was quiet on the island, we had plenty of time to relax. The sauna is also just great. The cabin is wonderful with great facilities. The equipment in the kitchen could be a little better, after all you have...

Property information

Gistholmen is an island of its own in Stockholm's central archipelago. There are 21 small self-catering cottages, a large cottage, a sauna and a service house with showers and toilets. It doesn't get more significant than that at Gistholmen. Yes, here, of course, there is also the calm, the sun-warmed rocks, the small sandy beaches, the sparkling bay, the forest paths with blueberry rice and the green meadow in the middle of the island. It's not more than that, and that's perfectly fine. All houses at Gistholmen are self-catered, which means the bed linen can be booked for an extra charge at the time of booking, or you can bring it yourself. Cleaning can be booked for an extra charge when booking, otherwise cleaning will be carried out by the tenant. There is no restaurant or shop at Gisthomen, you bring the food you want to consume during your stay. On the nearby island of Ingmarsö there is both a small shop and a restaurant.
