Villa Vest

Nordic idyl and luxury

On the edge of the North Jutland coast, in the small fishing village of Lønstrup, you will find Restaurant Villa Vest. Here, for many years, locals and tourists have enjoyed being able to enjoy special food while enjoying the sunsets in the light that North Jutland is so famous for. If you combine this dining experience with a stay at Villa Vest seaside hotel, you will get a total experience of nordic luxury, which only a few other places in North Jutland can offer.

The introduction may almost sound too good to be true, but it is a truth we here at OpdagDanmark dare to stand by. We have experienced and relived it repeatedly. Villa Vest also scores high in our vote on Denmark's best seaside hotels, where in all the years from 2018 to 2022 it has become rankings in the top 10.

Restaurant Villa Vest

Villa Vest had almost crashed into the sea before the place became a restaurant at all. In 1981, a proper storm took a proper bite off the coast. That bite was a few meters from taking the building into the sea. Fortunately, this did not happen, and therefore we still have the opportunity to enjoy the delicious dishes that are praised each year in the White Guide dining guide, to the sight of the sun setting in the sea. It is pure nordic luxury.

In the kitchen there is a great focus on the use of locally produced commodities and many of the ingredients come from owner Kim Møller-Kjær's own breeding. Thus, the food are taken all the way from farm to table.

Relaxed Sunday dinners

TIP: Every Sunday outside the high season you can eat at Villa Vest for the same sunset but at an extra good price. Read more about Sunday dinner.

Lønstrup bath hotel with charm

Villa Vest Badehotel became a reality when Kim Møller-Kjær took over the old Lønstruphus Badehotel and made it part of the overall experience. While we like to make big arm movements to tell about Villa Vest, the opposite is actually the case with the seaside hotel. Here you will find no spa or great luxury. No, luxury is something else here. There is a toilet and bath in the hallway. The rooms are bright and neat with a wonderful scent of freshly aired linens when you step in. Here is quiet and idyll which is worth a stay.

Expansion in 2020 - new rooms and conference facilities

There is great news ahead of the 2020 season at Villa Vest Badehotel. Here the hotel is expanded with a new wing and 10 brand new rooms with bath and toilet!

In the old wing you can still enjoy a classic stay at a bathing hotel with in-room washbasin and shower / toilet in the hallway, but if you want more modern convenience, then this is a possibility from 2020.

There are also meeting and training facilities.

Stay you must try

Villa Vest offers some wonderful stays, where you get both a beach hotel and a restaurant in one package. Prices can even the most stingy northern Jews can participate in. It costs from 1,000 for a 3-course menu in the restaurant, accommodation in a double room with sink and an exquisite breakfast buffet. So you really get a lot for your money.

The villa on the hill

The latest addition to the Lønstrup life enjoyment is the Villa at Bakken, which is a super nice beach villa overlooking the whole of Lønstrup.

We haven't tried it ourselves yet, but it should definitely be tried one day.

What do the guests say?

Stayed in connection with the combination of dining at Villa Vest. Small hotel with few rooms almost all without own toilet and bath, but this was no problem despite the fact that the hotel was fully booked. Lovely beds with nice pillows and duvet. The evening coffee with petit four is taken in the cozy "Hofmeisterstue" with self-service. The breakfast consists mainly of various sausage sausages, ham and pastry of their own production - for this a nice selection of cheeses, salmon and organic freshly squeezed apple juice. We will definitely return. Please note that the hotel is only open April-October

Lunch with great views high up in the dunes. There is a warm atmosphere and the staff is sweet and polite and hangs your jacket in the wardrobe. We ordered the plaice fillet with the accessories package and it was gourmet. Hand peeled shrimp and fantastic fish fillet. It was at the expensive end, for 2 people including a beer and a good glass of wine around 600 DKK. It was nice to try. Afterwards a walk by the sea. Perfect day

After a warm welcome we were shown to our rooms which were furnished like the rest of the bathing hotel, true to the seaside hotel style, but still with modern comfort. Everything was really neat, bright and clean. The breakfast was delicious, with many delicious specialties and Lisbeth was again ready with a good and personal service. Unfortunately it was only for one night but we would like to come again.
